Can they just throw Chapman out there already and let us win

Ugh

Got in on him. Good pitch.

Damn Yoan ripped that ball

At this rate they'll have better luck bunting than swinging at the damn ball.

8th inning woes continue

Those kinds of comments are short-sighted and quite frankly ignorant...

I don't think Donaldson has a good barometer for discernment and appropriateness....

Well, your opinion obviously is in favor of whatever Tim feels, so I'm not sure how you have the right to tell others their opinions don't matter when you clearly have an opinion on the matter. And to be clear, I am not "pro-Josh" if this comment makes it seem like I am.

And this I can get behind. And I would completely understand why Tim would take big offense at that comment if that is how he sees himself.

I don't know. At one point the two may have legitimately shared a laugh about the Jackie title. I have a feeling Donaldson may have been trying to lighten the mood regarding the hard tag last series by calling him Jackie, but it probably didn't come off how he intended. Then he did it again and it probably came off as distasteful, and then just spiraled. Not saying Tim doesn't have a right to take offense at it, but also not saying Donaldson was intending to belittle him with a racist comment either. If you look at the altercation between him and Grandal, it definitely looked like Donaldson wasn't trying to antagonize the situation...looked like he was caught off guard and realized what he said was in poor taste and that he just got himself in a load of shit. He then proceeded to strike out on some hanging sliders, which is uncharacteristic of him. He's got a reputation of being a dick, but I just think he may have chosen some really poor words to try and rectify a situation. I could be wrong, but that's how I'm piecing it together.

It all comes down to Kuechel and that grand slam. Grandal had some opportunities, but he's not adjusting to the league so it's very predictable what he's going to do right now. Anything tailing outside he'll whiff at.

I hope I'm wrong but they'll probably get swept tomorrow

Ah, forgot about that rivalry. I bet they're just putting up with him now.

Or anything, really. OBP is even below .300

And the big hit eludes them. Again. Pathetic man. Come on.

Would be real nice for one of our own cheap right field homeruns here.

There you go boys!! Keep it up. That was a mirror image of Pollock's double.

Nice rip. Keep the line moving

How is Donaldson with Yankee fans? Didn't seem like they really cared to support him there...

Um, if he can locate that, yeah...secret weapon for sure

That makes more sense.

He said something to TA?

Tim pushed him. Or at least it looked like he initiated contact. Either way someone needs to punch Donaldson like Michael Barrett

When Lynn returns you mean?
