Another blow out happens tomorrow, that’s kinda a telling sign. Somebody please get on the phone dial 911 MLB Villains and get Bauer and Urias in here. I’d rather be a bad guy team than a pathetic one.

No, we just saw the complete breakdown.

Detmers tomorrow. The majority of us think he’s our top starter.

LEDO Pizza, in Baltimore, doesn’t sound good. But, I’d try it.

Luis Garcia has an infinite ERA per ESPN. What a way to start the season.

So glad I had a rugby match today and missed. Ribs have been in better shape and I might throw up but winning 47-19 against a team a division higher than ours sure helps. Just thought I share the pain and love. Hope you all are finding something to enjoy today!

I find myself rooting for Hicks and Sano to strikeout. That ain’t a good thing

Will the scorekeeper keep Schanuel’s streak alive?

Yes, I believe he was safe even if the pitcher catches the ball.

I’m honestly only still watching to see how dejected they look heading back into the clubhouse.

Hear me out!! Stop pretending Rendon will ever be good at baseball again or that Hicks ever was.

Rengifo- 3B
Shanuel – 1B
Trout – CF
Drury- 2B
Ward – LF
Moniak – RF
Adell / Sano – DH
Ohoppe – C
Neto – SS

It’s “competitive “

Subscribe, I like the power and OBP at the bottom to set up Rengifo and Schanuel.

It’s “better on paper,” I can’t speak to how competitive it will be

I would flip Drury and Ward because Ward’s OBA will be at least 50 points higher. But other than that, It’s the best you can do with the personnel.

Only thing I might change is flipping Ward and Rengifo to have Taylor leading off…

Hey, some guy on the other team injured himself, so we’ve got that going on.

The bullpen – the only thing on the team Perry has seen fit to puff his chest about this month – has surrendered 14 runs in two games.

Put a bunch of salvage yard spare parts in a dirty jar and shake. Lighting! Oh no – that was just my meth kit exploding in the RV.

But he worked for the Braves! He drafted 19 pitchers in one draft!

He knows what he’s doing!

And there’s that guy he spent $33 million on who immediately went to the DL.

The guy who put up a 4.53 ERA for four years until he found a magic pitch that gave 40 innings of success?

Oh, yeah – that Durable bunny.

Paying for a career year has been revised to paying for a career half-season.

Jo made a nice catch but lost the wall there.

Not an easy catch….but should have been much easier. That ball would probably have hit him in the head a few years ago, big improvement

Absolute seed hit by Jo. God forbid we let that type of hitter in our lineup

Hicks was promised the job. Gotta let him fall after 100 games

If he was promised the job then the obvious question becomes WHY in the hell was he promised anything ?!!

Moniak earned the right to start last season. No reason not to play the kid, or at least a platoon of he and Adell.

It is more important to give a bunch of AB’s to journeyman Aaron Hicks and let him bat 2nd, the most important position in the batting order !!

And look at Moniak numbers in 23 and tell me he shouldn’t be in the lineup every day.

Ridiculous.
