Anyone else already thinking about Cionel Perez pitching tonight in a close game?

You think a lack of conditioning led to his neck injury?

Probably cricked it like I do when backing out of the driveway.

But I'm almost 62.

I mean you call a man garbage, that's not particularly nice. Do you think he's trying not to hit? Do you think it's his fault he's in the lineup?

Imagine you are sitting at the game with Roy and eating peanuts.  You watch the game and you see something happen and you turn to your friend and spout some reaction.  Maybe its frustation and not too nice about the player.  

Are you doing anything wrong?  NO you are among friends blowing off steam watching a sport you both enjoy.  This is all that is happening.  It is not more complicated than that.

You attempting to call people out for normal reactions is weird and creepy.

Usually we are the ones turning a lot of DPs to get out of jams.

Getting a bit of a taste of our own medicine tonight.

Man, our CF situation is grim right now.   Mullins out for who knows how long.   Hicks for a couple more weeks.   Cowser flirting with a double digit batting average.   Hays in a horrific slump.   And McKenna is McKenna, passable vs LH and replacement level at best vs RH.

But except for McKenna... none of those things looks to be permanent.  We just gotta wait it out.

DPs killing us tonight. Hays is ice cold at the plate.

[TopGunnar]

Hays hit that one right on the screws.

I find it funny you are White Knighting Roy.

It is funny.  Maybe its because some one keeps calling me out for disliking Mountcastle.

He could probably afford one of hose concrete circles so he doesn't have to back up.

Hays is the antipode to Mountcastle. The universe is in balance. But why does it have to be on the same team in the same game?

I think Jansens "glasses" are actually scientifically engineered to pick up the spin on the ball and show him in a HUD in real-time.

What's a HUD?

He isn't. it's worse.

My bad. He's batting clean-up. Truly comical by Hyde. He's rewarding Hays for his defensive play yesterday at the expense of his team's chances today.

Mountcastle isn't in the game thread right?

Roy is.

See the difference?

Heads Up Display (overlay).

Bradish keeping us in it.
