I'm done tonight. I'm not going to waste my time here for this game. If they showed at least some competence I'd watch but they haven't. This team has been masterful in losing games and they do just enough to lose. This game shouldn't of been close and now their losing. I apologize, I know your supposed to stick with it but I just can't tonight. I wish them and you guys the best of luck. I'll be back tomorrow rooting for them.

You're going to see this team go on some long, agonizing losing streaks.They don't have it. Night in and night out they find ways to lose, even after getting leads.

Hasn't happened yet. The sky isn't falling, Roy. The division is weak and we aren't that far back. Take it easy, man.

They are going to right the ship some and still end over .500. In the AL Least, that's all you need to be in the conversation come September.

What I don't understand is why Buck didn't have Brach warmed up, if his plan was to take Ubaldo out as soon as he allowed a base runner.

It may have been a reasonable decision to pull Ubaldo, but if you know you are ready to give the hook, you have to have a guy warmed up.

    • Does anybody know that he is an ex Yankee?
    • I put this ridiculousness in the game recap, but I think it belongs here as well.  Using AI you can really make some crazy stuff. 😂 https://suno.com/song/8f21dd9e-af4e-4284-9f23-c566260ca6ce
    • A buddy of mine made this with his AI. I figured I’d just put this here. 😂   https://suno.com/song/8f21dd9e-af4e-4284-9f23-c566260ca6ce
    • I was listening to MLB Prospects podcast last week. They talked about Gillen, and mentioned a lot about how he may be the best high school hitter. However, it’s a tough call where he’ll go because of a weak arm. They said the arm was injured, a right labrum, and his arm strength is not back after two years. So, probably wasn’t going to be a SS anyway when said and done due to size, maybe a 2B/LF or CF profile due to the weak arm and 60 speed. He was projected to maybe become the top high school player in the draft as a sophomore, but injured the shoulder and had some other injuries that have held him back. It is going to be interesting to see where Elias goes with picks 22 and 32. I would like to see Gillen there, but I think he’ll be gone. Kellon Lindsey is interesting, and maybe Billy Amick, along with one of the previous college hitters you mentioned will sneak through. Lindsey is rising fast.
    • A good friend of mine coaches college baseball.  He’s studied and dedicated his career to understanding how humans move. Not all humans move the same way.  An incredible talent could potentially be taught to move against his body’s preference and fail.  New wave progressive coaches understand how various body types work and the nuance to teach/coach them effectively.  
    • I'm still trying to figure out how this guy is out of the majors for 7 years and somehow manages to pick up 2 MPH on his fastball, at the age of 34.  But hey, I'm not complaining.   Statcast loves him so far this year.  Statcast thought he was a little unlucky in his last stint in the majors, and unsurprisingly they think he's getting a little lucky now, but even accounting for his good luck he's still in great pitcher territory.
    • 2 "gutsy" starts in a row.  That's exactly what you want out of veterans to demonstrate to the young guys.
