vs. ROYALS, 8/26

[SteveA]

I had to look up Sam Rice. Where did Gary pull him from?!

I came back and noticed that the game is tied. Of course, on a home run. I am not complaining, but this is just par for the course for this team.

I could have sworn they scored two last night off of not home runs.

I also thought hitting home runs was a good thing.

I'm not your bro. I don't use slurs as adjectives because I lack the real vocabularity to portray what I'm trying to say. Let me guess, you've been a fan since 2012. That's the only way someone would say something as foolish as he's been an epic failure. This team is having a bad year, lots of regression from the pitching and some hitting. It happens. Seattle was picked to win the AL West this season with additions they made, sometimes things don't work out. The fact that it needs to be explained to you is embarrassing.

1. Duquette spent the majority of the offseason flirting with Toronto for the VP position; 2. Letting Cruz and Markakis walk, with no real major league ready replacements (I wouldn't have given Markakis that contract he got from ATL, either, but not getting any sort of reasonable replacement is ridiculous); 3. Failing to improve the DH position; 4. All the rhetoric and used car salesman interviews repeating the same lines over and over about "looking to improve internally" when the farm system is becoming more and more depleted every season.

Now, was DD a good addition a few years ago? Yes. But to say that the 2014 offseason into the 2015 season has NOT been an epic failure on his part is just straight delusional. ...."dude". Get off that "holier than thou" high horse.

And no...2012 wasn't where I became a fan, so save it.

Had to look that up on urban dictionary. Yeah, that about sums up the last week.

A lead off walk

You mean "fix my lighthouse"? Everyone who is anyone knows that one.

[Chavez Ravine]

Another hit for Pearce. Maybe there is some life left in him?

How, other then in the light of hindsight, was Snider not a replacement for Markakis?

How do you get to mention Cruz twice? You don't.

Johnny Cueto.

[Aristotelian]

Is there any chance Paredes gets a hit here?

[schittenden]

PITCHES AFTER 3 INNINGS:

Cueto: Ol 52

Chen : O) 37

It's a shame we can't work a count. If only we could be more like Kansas City.

Would have been nice if he did it in the second with Davis on 3rd.

And Paredas K's

[Can_of_corn]

Im sorry.Paredes does not belong on this team right now. He cant avoid a K.

Not saying Nolan deserved to stay but I don't see how Henry or Paredes have any more place on the team.

But do you really want their bullpen in the game?
