Craig H Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 This fucking Cubs game today. Lackey hit what felt like everyone in the White Sox lineup, KB was tossed for making a peep about a called strike 3 when that pitch was so far inside that it was ridiculous to even think it could be a strike, Happ got hit by a pitch later, Hawk suggested that someone go after Lackey or Lester in the parking lot, and...yeah. It's been a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 The Brewers won a game somehow. The road to the WS is back on! I haven't decided what WS stands for yet. Waffle Stand? Do any stadiums sell waffles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 There should be a Dusty Baker emoji that can be used like the clapping hands one in between each word whenever a pitcher is announced going on the DL.

FireThunder Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Also from that game, Adrian Beltre is a national treasure and we're gonna miss him when he retires. He got three hits closer to 3000, then got ejected for... well... http://m.mlb.com/cutfour/2017/07/27/244714064/adrian-beltre-moved-the-on-deck-circle-to-where-he-wanted-it-to-be-and-was-ejected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted July 27, 2017 Author Share Posted July 27, 2017 Quote The Rays are set to acquire lefty reliever Dan Jennings from the White Sox, reports Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times (on Twitter). Tampa Bay is sending first base prospect Casey Gillaspie to the White Sox in return for Jennings. ESPN’s Jerry Crasnick first reported that the Rays were closing in on a trade for a left-handed reliever https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2017/07/white-sox-trade-dan-jennings-rays.html Casey Gillaspie had been in BA's Top 100 at the start of the season but wasn't in their midseason update (And he was the 3rd ranked Rays prospect again per BA) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 By the way, if you didn't see, Beltre got tossed last night after he was told to get back in the on deck circle... Which he then dragged to where he was standing. Adrian needs to never retire. And I might add, the ump was 100% right to throw him out for this. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moving Stanton would require him to waive his No Trade (which he has reportedly refused to do) and for Miami to receive an absolutely massive haul (Major Leaguers under control & top prospects) AND the receiving team would have to take on Stanton's ridiculous deal. Stanton's not going anywhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 He got the Pujols deal, but they gave it to him when he was still young. Meanwhile, everyone is getting to see the wonders of the Brewers Bullpen today. Oh boy. Note, Blazek is not a starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
