Dusty playing the percentages

This team is a terminator on the road, we’ll turn it around today

Mother of God.

[Wulaw Horn 18972]

If we are in the trust tree telling the truth can I mention it’s sort of irritating that we are the only team in the majors apparently capable of beating that shitty Mariners team?  

[tx 3 putt 76314]

This thread is a trust tree. 
 

let’s take car of business today

[dr99 551]

get Stephanie Curry off the field

Dusty shitting on yall right off the bat. LOLZ

[tx 3 putt 76314]

Y’all keep talking shut about yuli !

Damn that was a shot 

[David Dennison 18652]

I can't remember a series with more line drive outs.

[tx 3 putt 76314]

Kemp’n Ain’t Easy !

[kevwun 15621]

Dubon has a better arm than Pena.

[mbtex 683]

What is the alternative to MLB66 IR 

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

Meyers need to unfuck himself.

I use buffstream.io but it has pop up ads on screen fairly often

[UTEX_ME 4754]

Pathetic. 

[runthebone 7932]

Those were crushed.  Ball is carrying, so we should get some also.

[elfenix 34171]

fucking christ with this shit

[David Dennison 18652]

Baseball is dumb.

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

We just gave up back-to-back homers to guys who combined have fewer than 10 HRs and are hitting below .400. Great.  

[DaysOff 7851]

Stop fucking losing assholes.

We’ve got 37 games against teams within a couple games of 500.  

Tiers-

shitty:

10 Oakland, 8 texas, 6 angels, 3 Detroit, 2 Arizona 

right around 500 but probably shitty:

3 Boston, 7 Baltimore, 4 White Sox, 4 Cleveland 

 

playoff maybe, but probably still shitty:

4 Seattle, 3 Minnesota, 3 Philly 

good teams: 

3 Atl, 6 Tampa  

 

67 games total:  let’s go ahead and finish 45-22 and set a franchise record for wins at 109

Fangraphs latest projections have us finishing 104-58 (1 game better than LAD and NYY), winning the West (>99.9%) by 18 over SEA, 30 over LAA and TEX, and 42 over OAK. 

BR projections have us finishing best-case 109-53, worst-case 96-66. 

Some buddies of mine share a block of season tickets and on our group text were joking yesterday about how it's late July and essentially have over 2 months to go until our next game that actually matters. "I've got 12-15 more games of mop-up duty to attend."

The 3 game set in ATL, 6 games left vs Tampa, 4 at home vs the PNW eunuchs, and 3 games vs the Twinkies are the only games vs teams more than 2 games above .500 left.

also we were supposed to have the easiest 2nd half schedule.  i have to imagine we just played 5 of the harder games on it.

 

 

 

this is what happens when you start counting outs before the end of july

[UTEX_ME 4754]

Cy Young Irvin

[runthebone 7932]

Career .856 ops against Houston for Kemp.

[Storm the Field 5271]

What a weird sport. 5-0 vs. team with the best record in the league and a team that has won 19 of their last 23. 

Possible sweep and losing 6 of last 7 to a team that will likely lose ~100.

[Honeysucklerose 957]

Exactly. Every one of these teams are professional baseball clubs.

[tx 3 putt 76314]

curry first pitch 😂😂

It's ok, it will make the deals we need more likely

[txduck87 981]

Is it September yet?

[runthebone 7932]

5Ks, 2 HRs through 4 seems pretty normal.  At least they were solo

[runthebone 7932]

Vogt can't throw.  They should steal if they ever get a base runner.

This is our concern, dude. 

[Storm the Field 5271]

Attaboy Jake.

That's a start.

[runthebone 7932]

Another terrible AB by Lee.  Need a catcher.

[Storm the Field 5271]

Damnit guys, you gotta tie it up with a man on 3rd and less than 2 outs.

[perfectchaos007 6596]

This offense when multiple guys are resting is terrible 

[WBT 20415]

Y'all keep talking shit about Jake

[HoustonFrog 368]

This offense when multiple guys are resting is terrible 

It’s an extremely confusing situation

[runthebone 7932]

His CB is turrible.

[kevwun 15621]

Lee about hit the ump in the face with that one.

Maybe stop throwing curve balls unless you want this runner to score.

Resting multiple guys when Brantley is healthy is probably not the end of the world but resting multiple guys while he is on the DL is pretty damn stupid....

Perhaps they can fix the issue before the trading deadline to take the problem off Dusty's plate.

[runthebone 7932]

Astro killer. 

[Gourmand 7774]

just fucking walk Kemp jfc

[David Dennison 18652]

So I guess Tony Kemp can beat the Skeeters.

[D3zii 3641]

Whew boy. . . The A’s are better than their record!!! 
 

 

 

 

I think 

[perfectchaos007 6596]

Corey Lee is playing like a minor leaguer. At least it gives me more appreciation for what machete does behind the plate 

[Rockethorn1978 6061]

We’re on the verge of getting swept by a AAA team. 

[Gourmand 7774]

YORDONGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

[tx 3 putt 76314]

Y’all keep talking shit about Yordan !
