Traded for this guy. Amazing.

Alot of these mid season decisions makes a person wonder if Elias or Sig is about to jump ship and go somewhere else, because these roster decisions don't make any sense.

[Billy F-Face3]

I wonder how much the new ownership had to do with some of the trade and dfa decisions that were made? They seem very out of character for Elias and Sig.

Nicey nice!

Nice job by Bowman. Let us never speak of Soto again.

7th inning defensive indifference?

[Billy F-Face3]

Well, if I can say something positive, is that I am happy to hear Jim Palmer's voice while watching and Orioles game.

Os just take huge cuts.  Hate this offense’s approach.

Hey that's insulting to our two hitting coaches and "offensive strategy" coach who spent countless hours developing this plan.

In a slump?   Don't try to shorten up a bit or go the other way to increase your chances of putting the ball in play.  Of course not.   Swing harder, damn it!

And "look for something you can drive"!   Even if there's two strikes and the pitch is in the zone -- if it's not what you are looking for, take it!

That lead off walks makes me optimistic that this could be our rally inning!

That's all I can hear - I have Kevin Brown on ignore.

I am preparing myself to be disappointed.

Hey, Gunnar goes the other way!   Let's see some more of that.

This weekend's series is the one that matters forget about the Yankees next week.
