What about firefox?

There's a link for it on that page but you need to download the Greasemonkey addon. That script hasn't been updated yet though.

Great 1st inning!

Well shit. Get it together Greinke.

 

[Meier]

Well shit. Get it together Greinke.

Just a little hiccup.

How long until Brown is caught for PEDs?

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Welp.

PUIG!

 

[Dominican Power]

Puig does it again.

Kemp doing it all by himself (almost).

Ruh roh. Come on Kenley.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Finally got Utley out!

Dodgers win and the streak continues to 6.

 

[Doomsayer]

6 game winning streak!

Feelsgoodman.

Fuck the Phillies!

 

[Ryck]

Dodgers are scary when everything is clicking

 

[Doomsayer]

Dodgers are scary when everything is clicking

We'll probably win another game or two and then lose 8 of 10, nothing to see here folks.

 

[Ryck]

Haha true to your name.

 

[Macattk15]

Yessssssssssss.

Mariners called up Brad Miller.

I might finally be able to see what its like to have a short stop who can hit the ball.

Kawasaki Returns!

 

[Syrinx]

Heading to Citi Field tonight. Cohen said Harvey's pitching, even though I thought it was Gee's turn in the rotation. But hey, I ain't complaining! Very excited.

Edit: okay, thunderstorms in NY today. Ugh. Crossing my fingers.

Yovani Gallardo's no-trade list:

-- Angels
-- Astros
-- Blue Jays
-- Indians
-- Orioles
-- Phillies
-- Pirates
-- Red Sox
-- Tigers
-- Yankees

 

[MiKeD]

What is this. A 5:10PM start for the first game of a doubleheader...Damnit.

 

[matthewwhatever]

Kawasaki Returns!

...because, for some reason, the Jays desperately need 7 infielders. Not sure why they didn't just bring up Sierra or Gose. I can't imagine they'd be any worse against RHP than Davis will be. Though on the upside, Kawasaki is far better than Bonifacio, so at least there's that.

 

[The Frankman]

Ruben Tejada has been on the DL since May 30 with a strained right quadriceps.
In that time, Omar Quintanilla is batting .235 with a .280 OBP, two home runs, nine RBI and 19 strike outs in 85 at bats. However, he has played very well in the field.

“Based on what we’re seeing right now, Ruben has got to go earn it back,” Terry Collins said Thursday afternoon. “He’s got to go play. He’s got to go get his game together. He’s got to get himself in good, really top shape. We know he can. But there’s no reason why we’re going to take [Quintanilla] out of the lineup unless it’s fatigue. He’s played very, very well offensively and defensively.’

Tejada is expected to begin a rehab assignment this weekend with Single-A St. Lucie, after which he’ll likely spend time with Triple-A Las Vegas.

“We sent him out for a reason. He wasn’t playing well,” Collins added.

Thank God. Ruben gonna sit in AAA for awhile.

Pretty typical list. The big names are on there so he can extort concessions from them, and the Astros are on there because nobody wants to play for the Astros

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

Towers will overpay for Gallrdo. Also talk of them after Smmazajydja even Cubs said he is untradeable.

I am thankful the M's did not give up Nick Franklin, Taijuan Walker/Danny Hultzen, Stephen Pryor and Charlie Furbush for him.

What are you guys gonna do with Ackley now? You think he can play CF well enough to stick around?

 

[HerbertFish]

Newish rule allows for a 26th man during a double header. So of course the Sox are using it on a third Third baseman.

;^(

In reality, I'm fine with how the trade turned out. It doesn't really seem like either side has really experienced a huge change in production tbh. And Prado started the blowdart thing and that's hilarious so he's coo'.

Who knows?

It looked like his stint in AAA really helped. At least while he was down there.

I've heard from scouts / people who watched him play down there ... that his swing / stance / approach went back to how it was when he was in college.

We'll see if that helps him back at the MLB level. If he can stick in CF ... he still has pretty good value if he turns his hitting around. He DID play CF in college a bit ... so it's not foreign to him and he is also pretty swift.

I hope he pans out ... cause Smoak / Montero / Saunders has really spoiled my mood on the young people in the M's system.

He is NEVER going to be a slugger, but he should be a gap power OBP guy.

 

[eznark]

Ackley for Betancourt

 

[The Frankman]

Rising Apple examines Bobby Parnell and why he should be dealt in the next month.

I completely agree with this. If there are teams that are going to overpay for a closer like Pap Smear and The Legend, Jessie Crain, the fuck it Mets should get a boatload for Parnell. I'd do that deal for the Tigers in a second.

man fuck him anyways loser ass.

Also yes we signed austin meadows time to get 14th pick catcher

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

They need to stop giving spot starts to Bauer. Brah neds to stay at AAA for another year. Sont Spetember call up either.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Diamondbacks have activated Eric Chavez from the DL. They DFA'd Eric Hinske to make room.

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

I feel a great sadness watching Trevor Bauer struggle out there. Like apart of me is out there.

damn 2/3 and out already lol

 

[HerbertFish]

damn 2/3 and out already lol

in the first game of a double header. I think Francona may murder him.

 

[MiKeD]

THIS IS FUN.

Bauer sucks and will always suck. Brah.

Too "smart" for his own good. Should focus on rapping.

I still believe in him.

 

[Macattk15]

I still believe in him.

I dunno man. He gave up a HR to Jeff Keppinger.

 

[The Frankman]

Bauer needs more seasoning, a year in AAA to figure out what works would help.

 

[Windu]
