👑 ROYALS vs 🐯 game 3
-
Moose is hitting base hits
-
@Crimsonorblue22 sorry not much for a chat partner.
-
@globaljaybird how’s the mom in law?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Yes shes been fighting. Was little over a year ago when they determinined the Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia lymphoma & thyroid cancer. Wife said her appetite is surging shortly after surgery. That is a wonderful sign. All but one of her 6 children are there so that is giving her more courage. Last 2 years since Dad’s been gone she has struggled dearly.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Angels just tied Cleveland top of 7th.
-
@globaljaybird G-baby just went home so I’m here. I did take her cartoon time away at game time, but not sure she picked up any pointers watching the game.
-
@globaljaybird I won’t be switching and rooting for the Angels like I did last nite. Bot of the 11th reminded me of some of our early season games.
-
Some Detroit players are just mailing it in right now. I would’ve fined Upton for dog assing that run at the plate last nigh & that pitcher could’ve cared less about covering the bag for Cabrera. Flippin shame with the kind of living MLB supplies those guys. Ya think they’d be more grateful & put out their best efforts all the time. 9 games out is not a death sentence-KC was that far back themselves. But since JD Martinez was traded it looks like some of those guys have just given up. Hope they’re the next ones to get traded-to the Giants, or the Reds, or the Phillies…
-
Good to see the boys put 5 on the board without the long ball. Although suppose you could almost classify Eskys as a almost long ball.
-
@brooksmd 8-1 time for Rascal to water the tree…
-
Drew a good solid back to basics backup catcher.
-
Keep the line moving boys. Love me some Whit.
-
HOZ GRAND SALAMI KABOOM!!!
-
Det fans calling it game, set, match.
-
@globaljaybird did you see it or were you still watchin Rascal whizzing?
-
@brooksmd you definitely have a man crush on 3 hit whit
-
Do we have a back up for drew?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I’d buy him a couple of
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Wouldn’t surprise me if Whit put on the pads.
-
@brooksmd Nope was down the street…
-
Whoa guys!!
-
Alright settle down. Forget the runner at 3rd now an tcb.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Hows that?
-
Much better, looked like lil league
-
@Crimsonorblue22 t-ball
-
On the subject of catchers, http://ftw.usatoday.com/2017/06/oklahoma-softball-pitcher-knocks-over-royals-catcher-while-warming-up-for-first-pitch
-
That was cool! Drew a good sport and showed her much respect!
-
I like drew. He seems to be a fun guy.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Now they must remain fully focused & not have any injuries. We may have 8 straight but the Tribe has at least 5 in a row too. Time for some new guys to get their feet wet.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Cam Gallagher, C, Omaha, ba .296, 5 hr, not a speedster like Salvy as he has no SB’s.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Call Hud and ask him if Salvy an Drew went down during a game who is next.
-
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Goldberg & Montgomery are linkedin connections but Hud’s not on there-at least not under that name.
-
Whit wants a cookie-nah…
-
Soooo my friend called while the moose thing happened. Did he get thrown out?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Nope but Rondon did. Maybe get a day off for pushin an ump. Hopefully Moose doesn’t get scalded a game or so for being so colorful. You didn’t’ need to be much of a lip reader to get his spiel when he started walking towards the mound. Clearly Moose has a lot more to loose than some part time relief pitcher. I know Maurer came in throwin BB’s at 99 mph !! I can dig that.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 No. The pitcher got tossed as soon as he hit Moose but he hung around to try an toss an ump down to get more suspension time.
-
@globaljaybird Who was the bald headed Royals dude that got in front of Moose to take on Rondon?
-
2brooksmd Still 2 back with a rest day on Thurs. Vargas vs Price in Fenway at 7:10 Friday. Will try to hang out some if I can. GN & keep the sunny side up. Pretty sure that was Duffy. I did a double take myself.
-
Thx! I knew moose didn’t. Rewinded to see again. Missed the lil ump getting thrown around. Guess he’s not a popular guy. Is this our first fight w/out ace? Miss the crazy fun dude! Duff was po’d
-
Danny Duffy on Rondon: “If he doesn’t want to compete in a situation that’s not sexy, they should just send his ass home."
-
@globaljaybird Good for standing up for teammate but asinine stunt by Duffy.
-
@globaljaybird Actually 1.5 back but I know you look at losses only.
-
@brooksmd I don’t think duff would have done anything.
-
@brooksmd Yeah that’s true, but Duffy has to use his head for more than a hat
rack. @Crimsonorblue22 . I also thought of Ace but more than just tonight. These young guys that were all crazy 
kids together a few years ago are coming of age as men & many will soon go their own way in life. There’s no boo 
hooing now & they’re still having a ball 
️ winning . That’ll heal a lot of hurt. Just makes it sad to think this run may be coming to an end. Guess I’m getting soft in my old age. On the rebound. GN
-
@globaljaybird I hate to think about it. Will ruin it for me! Hope we can keep most of them.
-
@globaljaybird FA ruined the game. I hear these guys say they need to make sure their families are provided for. How many millions does it take? I’m doing just fine and I didn’t inherit millions of dollars. My kids will probably inherit more than I did when my wife an I are gone, but it sure as hell won’t be millions.
-
@brooksmd I like the game much better with FA! Enables teams to rebuild faster and enhances competition. Dynasties are shorter.
Of course, I lived through the last years of the KC A’s disaster.
And, frankly, I love it when they get paid a lot. Remember, many are earning under minimum wage in the minors. When someone hits it big, it keeps the attention of some who might give up. Even Whit was discouraged a couple years ago, but his parents kept him going. You need a steady supply of bb players to find the 1 to 5 % who can make it in the Show.
@globaljaybird Don’t think anyone wants to go sign with the Giants this year…
-
@mayjay You mean like Miami a few years ago when the owner, who I believe also owned Blockbuster Video, bought a WS winning team and then immediately dismantled it? That’s what FA brought. He who has the biggest and deepest pockets wins. The little guy runs around gathering crumbs with hopes of one day finding a diamond. Or he moves his team to a bigger market.
-
@brooksmd Didn’t Charley Finley do the same thing in the mid-70’s with the A’s after their 2 WS wins? Bad owners are not unique to the FA era. At least the Marlins fans have their good years to look back on.
One thing is certain, the large contracts and impending free agency has really made the summer trade deadline more interesting (that, along with wild cards). GMs trying to build, rebuild, dump salary, fill holes, and strengthen a playoff run can do so drastically during a season rather than just the winter meetings.
