I love it when I have a long ass day at work full of shit, come home to start the game late and see a walk, error, rage out and come back into the room to see we gave up another 2 runs on idgaf. Turning this off and going to vacuum or some shit. We really need to take this playoff race seriously. 

Lol calm down son. Go drink a beer or 4

Whoooosssssaaaaa. I am calm now. I will just read this thread. I need to chill. Good call my man.

Dezenzo isn’t very good at first.  That was not a tough scoop.

[Gourmand 7,774]

no way was that a hit.

Just catching up - What the fuck is Jeremy Peña’s problem?

He makes an error almost every game now. Additionally, after he misses the ground ball, he just watches Yordan and Chas go get it when he was likely the closest to it.

[runthebone 7,967]

I was at Arrighetti's implosion against Detroit Father's Day weekend.  Not sorry I missed this one.

[LCHorn 2,615]

Jesus Christ, just saw the score.  Usually when your pitcher gets hit like that they go on the DL for something.

It's okay, do we know if the Mariners play the A's?

[Rockethorn1978 6,072]

It’s gonna be one of those 22-1 games I see.

I have seen 9 year olds score 13 runs in an inning, that means the pros can do it!  Plus the dog is already sleeping.

[runthebone 7,967]

So proud of this team's fighting spirit.

[Scraps 13,561]

should have been 3-0 and spaghetti keeps going 

[Wulaw Horn 19,068]

Jake meyers goes on paternity leave and we get our asses kicked by a reds team that had been circling the drain for a month. 
Bring back Jake!  
mostly kidding. I did wonder if he’d have gotten to that ball in the first. That might have made a difference. Or, not having any one of a bunch of other bullshit errors that led to runs and extra batters and extra pitches etc. 

Need one tomorrow for mental health of fans. Another A’s walk off over the mariners tonight would also be fun. 

[runthebone 7,967]

I view this as a 9-0 loss followed by a great 5-3 win!

Orioles and Indians lost, Yankees losing.  No real damage done

Except we could have gained a game on all of them

[Snake Diggity 4,620]

Astros have done Dezenzo a disservice calling him up to only play him every 4th game at a position he’s not used to.  He’s been brutal at 1B but he’s a better player than what we’ve seen.

Who else is there though?

[Dutchrudder 11,136]

Matt Chapman just got 6 years and 151m from the Giants at age 31. That should be about what Bregman is seeking next year, but I don't think this team is gonna pay it. 25m a year is a good chunk of change, so the Astros need to figure out if Whitcomb is an acceptable replacement.

Just came to say same thing. Practically same age and identical career WAR and WAA. Chapman has 4 gold gloves and having another great year defensively. Bregman now has an injury concern also. If that isn’t his ceiling it’s close. Maybe not his but the teams. Between Tucker, Framber and Bregman at least one will probably have to go for salary purposes. Framber will want $25, Tucker will want $30+, Bregman $25+ plus we need find a 1B and possibly outfielder in free agency. Going to be a very interesting off season. A GM could really make or break their career in an off season like this. No need for this window to close anytime soon with the right moves. 

[Mitch Hedberg 2,090]

Hayward could use a good game at the plate if he’s think about making post season roster. Chas is threatening the Mendoza line.

I think Framber is the clear luxury item among the three.  If Bregman would take Chapman’s deal I think the Astros would do it.

You’ve got to ride the less cold hand

[tx 3 putt 76,880]

yeah, framber has carried this pitching staff since 2020 ….

Didn’t know we had a day game today. Awesome. Hope I’m able to watch more than the first inning.
