He was officially signed today. Ned is currently going through a phase.

I never noticed those Silverados until I went to the game on tuesday. When did they put those up there?

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Double post.

 

[Dominican Power]

Who pitches for Capuano tomorrow?

 

[brianjones]

cap is still scheduled to pitch I believe

they sent withrow down

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Who pitches for Capuano tomorrow?

Well they picked up Edison Volquez for that reason. They both suck so it'll be like business as usual.

Well, the Jays are pretty hapless

i wonder if any team in any sport will ever break pirates record for sub .500 seasons

Maybe an NBA team.

 

[jakncoke]

twolves at 8
bills 8

man even 1 of these 2 teams keeps losing i'll be 37 when they break it

 

[darkside31337]

Bills will break that streak. Easily.

 

[jakncoke]

Good news for my fantasy team

 

[ToxicAdam]

I have Morneau, I don't like it. He was really coming along by playing on a bad team in meaningless games. If he goes to the Pirates he might start pressing against pitchers he's never seen before.

Wolves are gonna break that streak this year.

He's a shell of his former self, but if they use him in a platoon role I think he'll be good for them. I'm heartbroken to see him go. Go Buccos, I suppose.

Fernando Rodney was trapped in the Coliseum bathroom?

A's need a new stadium badly.

Or maybe Rodney needs to wear his hat properly.

I'm thinking this.

 

[RGVNOE]

Damn Pirates making some moves this season really going for it, good luck to them. And damn you STL FO for not making any moves just keep bringing back up the same guys you already sent down before.

 

[Sanjuro]

Fucking asshole should be banished from MLB.

 

[Malvingt2]

I just saw the news about the Pirates.... wow

 

[darkside31337]

Good for the Pirates. Nice to see them actually going for it.

What a game from Nova

 

[Cloudy]

Yeah. But that lineup is so deep that he's now one of the guys teams pitch around others to face. So far he's not batting lower than 5th, I like it

*YAAAWN* oh no, stop the presses! a player doesn't conform to the extremely rigid, boring and "unspoken" rules of baseball, string him up! how dare he do something different.

You're right. He conforms to being an asshole.

U git John Axford.

Spoiler

jajaja

 

[slightconfuse]

Didn't catch the game but nova is so good.

Most consistant this year

 

[Lambtron]

I just meant since it's sideways the bill might get caught on something.

 

[Square Triangle]

blah blah blah

As what Lamb said.

 

[darkside31337]

I was cool with Rodney's shit last year.

Dude is trash this year. He should cut out the antics.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

You're right. He conforms to being an asshole.

what makes him an asshole? i ask you, being an expert on that.

As what Lamb said.

nothing of consequence.

 

[Square Triangle]

He played for the Tigers and sucked ass, I'm allowed to hate him.

 

[Malo]

Rodney is forever cool in my book because of the WBC.

Platano power!

While you guys are in the here and now given the franchises history. Makes the moves you can now to set the final pieces. The Twins aren't Unicef, anyhow.

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Woo! Dat Mets OF D will be a sight tonite with Den Dekker and Lagares out there!

 

[Sanjuro]

Peavy's cap has been bukaked.

 

[Square Triangle]

I really hate how much the Tiger's rotation allows 1st inning runs.

Reese McGuire brah.

 

[Little Green Yoda]

With the way we're swinging the bats, 2 runs is probably the game.

 

[Square Triangle]

Kazmir looks like Lydia from Beetlejuice. One white ass face

 

[RGVNOE]

It's looking like we're getting shutout tonight again, and Pittsburgh will start September in 1st

 

[Little Green Yoda]

Why stop at 2 runs though?

Cards have lost 9 games already to the Pirates and 5 of them have been blowouts (5+ run differential)

 

[RGVNOE]

Lynn is so damn hittable he's got nothing if they make playoffs

Edit: and that's the ballgame. Cards look to weak for a playoff contender.

 

[Cloudy]

Lynn getting destroyed

 

[Little Green Yoda]

Yep, the Pirates own us as much as (if not more than) we own the Reds this season.

Can't believe we have to depend on Joe Kelly's smoke-and-mirrors to avoid getting swept.
