Hah, we aren't the only team that can make stupid plays.

And on THIS team Pedro shouldn't go anywhere. He is what he is but he's.... a stabilizing influence.

An anchor is a great stabilizing influence. 

You want to stabilize a boat, an anchor is a great choice.

They basically pitch around Mullins, and our #2 and #3 hitters don't make them pay.  That's disappointing.  At least Hays hit the ball hard.

I know there's hidden sarcasm in there... He is an anchor! In every shape of the phrase. But he does stabilize the rooks.

Wow, I did not realize Yuli Gurriel was 37.

And a weight that keeps you from moving forward.

Gladly.

A live version I haven't heard before.

 

Better stuff that you've probably already posted...

I know... KEXP. It jams!

Both of their KEXP appearances were NUTS.

Nice job getting out of the mess Plutko.

That one is insane! Such musicianship! So tight!

Mckenna caught that line drive.  BJ Stewart would of picked it up after it stopped rolling and thrown a mediocre throw into the infield and two runs would of been scored.  

Defense matters when we have a horrible pitching staff.   They need all the help they can get.   Just my opinion.

It's such a pleasure to watch an OF with that kind of range at each position.

Of course D matters! And I'm not a big DJ Stewart fan. He hits a bit... in spurts. But he's a zero in the field.

He's not even playing.

See McKenna get the bat out of the way on that wild pitch. Good thing.
