Anyway, I hope Max gets the win and pitches well! Yes, indeed Max Scherzer is a force of nature at 5w to 1 loss, however Fried comes in with 9w and 2 losses. The night will be won or lost by the Braves bats, with SS Dansby (who looks like Fabio and bats like Pete Rose) followed by Austin Riley and Michael Harris II. Olsen and Ronald Acuna jr. have been known to hit a ball as well. Should be a great night at the ol' ball game!!!
MoeFOH Posted July 11, 2022 Author Posted July 11, 2022 Surfacing in this thread again after being crazily busy and also very superstitiously waiting till the Red Sox pulled to a respectable position after a pretty slow start... disgustingly that equates to settling for a split series against the Yankees and being 14 games back in 2nd!! What!? Now we're playing the Rays which will probably only help the old rival more... what an insane season they're having. The form of Devers has been a real highlight. Very happy to see him and Bogey get the All-Star nod. Injuries a concern as always but hoping we can use the law of averages against the Yanks in the 2nd half and pull back their lead. Very tough road ahead though. 1
KCCubano Posted July 23, 2022 Posted July 23, 2022 For the Red Sox fans out there-28-5!! I only saw highlights on Sportscenter but the lack of defensive effort on display by Boston was just incredible. Is Cora's job in jeopardy? 1

After third inning things were looking downright shameful for Boston. After a while even the Jays weren’t having much fun. 2

Jays we’re on 🔥but the Red Socks mental errors certainly helped. Blue jays win again today so go for the sweep tomorrow. 3
ElJavi76 Posted July 28, 2022 Posted July 28, 2022 What a subway series!! #LFGM Great start by Mad Max last night. Shame he didn’t get the dub, but the Mets did. 1
Ford2112 Posted July 28, 2022 Posted July 28, 2022 The Giants just sent out this statement about the current morale in the locker room. 1
KCCubano Posted August 3, 2022 Posted August 3, 2022 Whats everyone think of all the trades? Here in Kansas City we were amused that Whit Merrifield was traded to Toronto. When Royals went to play Blue Jays in July he was 1 of 10 players that didnt make trip as not vaccinated. He wont have a choice now! 2
JohnS Posted August 3, 2022 Posted August 3, 2022 @KCCubano, yes I found that funny indeed. Oh well...either he gets vaccinated and plays home games in Canada, or he only plays away games! 😂 @Fezztone would probably concur, but in my opinion, the San Diego Padres made a very loud statement, in this trade period this year, that they will not be bossed around by the Dodgers anymore. I look forward to @BigGuns humble thoughts on this matter! 😁 1 1

Interested in seeing how they pay for it all but wow, what a lineup, glad to see they are focused on building the team for serious post season opportunities. @BigGuns might lose more wagers 2

The Giants on the other hand did nothing,are doing nothing,and will do nothing. The only good I see out of this is ticket priced will go down. I'm a fan no matter what,and as long as we are playing decent baseball and in a wildcard race it is what it is. Get these old farts out and get some young talent. It's been rebuild time for several years now. Why did the Dodgers need Joey Gallo? 1
RedLantern Posted August 3, 2022 Posted August 3, 2022 Mariners took the series from the Yankees in NY, despite being down their 3 best hitters. 1
BigGuns Posted August 4, 2022 Posted August 4, 2022 Hahahahahaahahaha. @JohnS @Fezztone All the Padres did was increase their chances in finishing 2nd in the NL West and maybe hold on to the Wild Card. Has Tatis even played yet? Will he? Machado is a joke. At least they still have a pretty sweet ball park (location). @Ford2112 Dodgers didn’t need Gallo, they just wanted to save him from the treatment he was getting in NY. A goodwill feel good story. And speaking of goodwill, can you call one of your contacts at Oracle and tell them to tone down the Vinnie tributes? I HATE having to appreciate anything in that orange and brown vomit. (I must say it’s great to see the normal jerseys again tonight - those “city” unis are something else!) D - feel free to make a wager. I feel it would be unfair for me to make a proposition. ITFDB 1

I thought the NY fans were too nice to him--the batting average in the lineup just went up twenty points by him going away. He cost the Yankees dozens of runs by failing to drive in runs with men on third and zero or one outs--he would invariably strike out....the Dodgers will get burned a few times and figure it out soon enough. 1

Seems like he’ll get the jab though, guess the chance to play on a contender overrides whatever his objection was to vaccination. Or who knows, maybe he just plays away games… 1

Two Hit Whit had been a long time Royal and fan fave but this comment really cheesed our GM. One has to wonder if he was shopped there on purpose. 2
LLC Posted August 5, 2022 Posted August 5, 2022 He said today he is vaccinated and will play in Toronto. He is excited to finally be on a team contending. 1

He didnt make the roster when we won WS in 2015. Too many good players ahead of him. Many lean yrs in KC ever since. Always liked him so will be cheering on Toronto from here on out. At least in the AL 3

Happy to have him to give Springer some rest. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2
Ford2112 Posted August 5, 2022 Posted August 5, 2022 I'm really looking forward to seeing how The San Francisco A ballers are supposed to make a playoff wild card run here. This according to Farhan Zaidi. Also seeing Gabe Kapler pushing his mini me in the chest as he was getting ejected was classy. Signed- Disgruntled fan 1
Chas.Alpha Posted August 6, 2022 Posted August 6, 2022 Braves and Mets go head to head this weekend!!! 1
Ford2112 Posted August 8, 2022 Posted August 8, 2022 The Giants won 2 games against the worst team in MLB. Woot Wild Card here we come!! PFFF 1
