6/30 @ Tampa Bay

[TheKilo]

First, yes, you're right.

 

Two out, 2-2 count, Manny should've been going from first on contact with a reasonable lead to start with. Instead, he barely turned second on a shot down the LF line that almost reached the fence. That's why I was upset--he wasn't close to reaching third on what could've been a bases-empty double for Mike Lowell.

 

There's nursing a hamstring and there's not trying. At times I don't know where Manny is on that spectrum.

 

Ok - let's put it this way. There's a greater likelihood of scoring when there are runners on 1st and 2nd with 2 outs than 2nd and 3rd with 3 outs.

I think removing Tek (even for a percentage of games) might do some damage to morale. Unless, that is, the replacement was fan-freakin-tastic once he cema up.

[TheKilo]

WHERE THE f*** DID THAT 0-2 MISS? JESUS.

See...this is where you and I differ. I like to root for teams without automatic outs in the lineup.

[TheKilo]

This umpire f***ing sucks.

How it is bad for morale? Why is it a bad idea to sit a player who is so bad?

[yeszir]

2 out walks! Dammit!

Damn it Kilo! Why the f*** would you mess with team spirit?

[MANNYHOF24]

Horrible relay there. This is terrible.

[yeszir]

DAMMIT! 2 out walk. Lugo throws like Damon. s***

I count 10 strikes called balls.

[TheKilo]

So f***ing terrible.

[das11209]

Do you guys remember how long Belhorne sucked before Tito could get him out of line-up?

 

I don't think Tek will ever be out of this line-up.

What's up with that little red guy WAAAAAY inside there? Kinda makes me doubt the system.

 

edit: I guess inside to a leftie outside to a rightie

I count more than 13 balls called strikes though.

[yeszir]

This is gonna be a loooooooong series

[TheKilo]

This ump is awful.

[TheKilo]

I count more than 13 balls called strikes though.

 

Foul balls, swings and misses, etc.

[TheKilo]

ELLSBURY SUCKS.

[MANNYHOF24]

Foul balls' date=' swings and misses, etc.[/quote']

 

Ohh. got it.

[yeszir]

ELLSBURY SUCKS.

 

Remy jumps in to defend him.

[MANNYHOF24]

We suck right now.

[TheKilo]

Ellsbury is so f***ing bad right now, it boggles my mind.

[MANNYHOF24]

Remy jumps in to defend him.

 

Man crush developing?

[TheKilo]

ooooooooooooooooooooooo

[yeszir]

Man crush developing?

 

It was understandable up until recently.

 

I'm positive that he'll come around, but he (THIS UMP CANNOT CALL THE STRIKE ZONE) needs to come around immediately!

[TheKilo]

Bad call on 2-2 aside, I love JD Drew because he has a quality AB 99% of the time.

 

LIKE THAT

[yeszir]

THANK YOU JD! Finally something to cheer about.

[MANNYHOF24]

NICE, DREW! Hey, Kilo I bet you are glad you are right.

[yeszir]

Hey Kilo, you're going down this week in fantasy.
