  1. Five seems more like it, but you could be right. It would have been entertaining if he took the helmet off and went all Pinella in his face.
  2. Keith Foulke, Billy Koch and Bobby Jenks would have pitched on back to back games. Even Every Day Damaso Marte would have and he sucked!
  3. Pin him with the loss, but look at the other reasons for the loss. Again, there needs to be more offensive production. And they can’t count on the ridiculous trend of the Rockies not hitting with runners on to last two games. Yeah. And TLR should have started Lambert in the 9th.
  4. Whatever you do, just don’t strap it on.
  5. Giolito has regressed and sucks now. Each starter needs to go at least over 5 if not 6. The pen needs more than a one run lead in the late innings. Need an insurance run. There was no way the Rockies were going to continue to have all of those LOBs without scoring. Graveman shouldn’t have walked all of those dudes but I can’t pin the loss squarely on him. Also Kelly sucks and lost whatever ability he had in LA. TLR should use him in emergencies instead of high leverage situations. But TLR sucks too.
  6. I thought that if they weren’t going to make it this year that it might be worth losing for the better draft pick, but it probably wouldn’t be high enough to get the pick to the majors fast enough. I want them to just win, particularly in winnable games like the ones today.
  7. Doesn’t matter if it fails or not, TLR still has a job.
  8. Ventura shouldn’t have been hired either. The Sox could have hired Tito. I was thinking of something similar today. I think Cleveland may also be better than Minnesota this year too.
  9. The old Grandal would hit a home run here. Will this version of him do the same?
  10. I’m not in my fucking basement and nor do I sit there all of the time. Do you really want to go to a game with overpriced food and drinks, plus parking and tickets to see this team play?
  11. No thanks. Why bother spending hours of my time and hard dollars to see something I can see on TV or listen to on the radio? The product on the field is mediocre this year. I went to one game and wanted to go to more, but they never improved.
  12. It makes no sense to make a move at the deadline. They can’t score runs consistently so it doesn’t make sense to go get pitching.
  13. How does the MLB draft go in terms of what each team can afford and what players can sign for?
  14. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zack_Burdi
  15. It would match the trade from last year except the reliever is hurt and the infielder is healthy.
  16. I thought there would be a chance he would join the front office if they kept losing, but not as quick as Riordan suggested. It would have been an end of the year thing. Walking it back like a liar.
  17. We will see on Tuesday at 3 to see if this prediction is wrong and at the end of the season to see if his first prediction is correct. I’m still thinking he’s wrong.
  18. Ian Happ would be my choice, but it all depends on who the Cubs will want in return.
  19. I believe him as much as I believe his TLR nugget.
  20. Then cook something awesome and wish Leila Rahimi was his girlfriend. (I mean, who wouldn’t?)
  21. His politics mean nothing to me when it comes to how I feel about the job he is doing. Sure, I probably wouldn’t have hired someone for the two DUIs he had, but he’s had questionable decisions this year and the lineup construction has been inconsistent. I don’t care if he sits in his old man underwear, drinks his whiskey and watches Tucker after the game. I care about actual results.
