Got dayum, Matt Chapman. 

[Wally Pryor 5261]

One of the best catches, ever.

Ever.

Watching Pozo at bat instantly retrieved this classic scene from my memory banks.

Do we need  a sub-thread for us to counsel one another about not getting excited about the kids' early performance?

Garcia frustrates the absolute fuck out of me.

[C-Man 27185]

[Ignatius 4017]

Sure to jinx it, but Taylor Hearn has been settling in his last few appearances.  ERA under 4 for the season…

Somebody is the best snow skier in Puerto Rico….

Tallest midget! 

[Gucci_Suit 2642]

Folty loves homers. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15947]

Let’s see if we can continue to only score 1 run. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15947]

Spencer Howard fits right the fuck in. 5 ER in 2 IP. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15947]

Silly Rangers! 

[Fudbelty 2787]

Good job. Good effort.

[shadow_operative2.0 15947]

Ranger’d. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15947]

After all of @Dr Fear‘s lucky Ws lately, this shitty beat was due. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15947]

The real bad (couldn’t find a tweet).

Dane Dunning is very, very average. 

[Dr Fear 1268]

So I just discovered this Hurricane Henri is headed for Boston/NYC. Sandy game is at 1pm eastern, wonder if it ends up being moved up. Yankees also at home same time.

[Dr Fear 1268]

What do you expect when you are rolling guys like Folty and Lyles out there.

CJ just answered on the broadcast. Not enough time to schedule a DH for tomorrow, but both teams are off on Monday.

For the Tech fans.   Excerpts:

 

ROUND ROCK — The Round Rock Express were handed their first premium prospect of the season Friday when the Texas Rangers promoted third baseman Josh Jung, a former All-American at Texas Tech.

Jung, the eighth overall pick of the 2019 Major League Baseball draft, is the Rangers' No. 1 hitting prospect and No. 2 overall, behind pitcher Jack Leiter, the club's top selection in June.

 

Jung, 23, got a late start to the season after breaking his left foot in spring training. Once he recovered and was assigned to Double-A Frisco, he never stopped hitting. Jung batted .308 with eight doubles, 10 home runs and 40 RBIs in 43 games.

In his last 23 games, he hit .341 with seven doubles, six homers and 25 RBIs. He climbed to 52nd on MLB Pipeline's updated overall prospect list this summer.

Goddamn Red Sox defense is gifting us this one so far.

That's just an absolutely awful bunt.  Got to get it past the pitcher  

[Dr Fear 1268]

Score one for the -1.5 crowd! That also hit the over.

Are we including physical violence ????

[Dr Fear 1268]

That may scratch the Wednesday and Thursday starters.

[shadow_operative2.0 15947]

Leody is back with all the moves. 
 

[ztejas 43411]

We're about to blow this aren't we.

[ztejas 43411]

Peters with a nice 3 run yak. Just as I was thinking about how atrocious our hitting with guys on base is.

Holy shit we might win this one.
