Blackout Friday

That’s probably why lol

This is good stuff. Thank you.

In a vacuum there’s nothing wrong with what he said, but that not how it works. There’s a context, so of course it’s going to look a little fishy. That’s kind of the problem with saying stupid things... it’s what people come to expect.

I don’t really buy him as a 7 win player, but he’s still really good. Likely a pipe dream, yeah.

I like the idea of ketel marte. He can fill in for cf until Robert is back, and then he can essentially fill leury’s role as (a much better) 2b/SS/of. He’d likely cost someone like crochet and some lesser pieces, however.

Filth

Why is Jose still at first?

That lineup. My god.

Hopefully Nicky can turn the lineup over. This guy is meat.

Used a two strike leg kick on that one.

3 time Stanley Cup Champion Justin Williams coming into the game.

Holding out Hendricks for the 10th again. See, the problem with thinking you know everything is you never learn anything.

Embarrassing.

Popping to the catcher twice in three innings is actually kind of impressive.

Tony is here to teach us the ways of yesteryear.

Can’t start every hitter 2-0 and expect success.

Bold prediction of the day: Billy boy pulls one out to the short porch.

Engel isn’t a savior, but he should be a good boost. He’d likely be our best OF today, which although depressing, is still an improvement. Depth is depth.

There’s plenty to contribute. What do you think of the lineup? What about the matchup? Maybe a particular player’s chances today. Other games going on? How the next series is set up? Who’s gone when Engel is back? There’s lots of stuff.

Including a picture says all you need about where his head is at. Doesn’t matter that he persevered long after most guys would have given up and is now excelling at the highest level - a truly great story. All that matters is he looks like the bad man from his television programs.

Yeah, it’s a character flaw that apparent. You can age and still adapt to the times. I was hoping for senior citizen Bruce Bochy because I respect his knowledge and experience, but also his ability to keep up with the world around him.

Yep, agreed. Smart people adapt to their surroundings. Expecting the world to adapt to you doesn’t usually work out too well.

Taking steroids and cheating is fine as long as you don’t swing 3-0. Young players juicing to be the next McGwire is fine, as long as they don’t wear gold chains. How is this buffoon still posting here?

Someone please oblige him with his request to be taken out.

Just put in a position player so they can’t swing.
