Around Baseball 2014

[G-Snarls]

I think it's safe to say the 2014 Rangers have had worse injuries than the 2013 Jays

 

Wow

 

Poor bastards

[G-Snarls]

Confirmed

O.o

 

Except they can't give us the SP we want

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Jennings ties it!

 

lol

I don't see the appeal in cheering for the Rays to lose.

 

1) They are not the team to beat, they suck.

2) If they tank they're not going to trade with us.

[Convo]

And there's the walk off win.

 

It's what you get.

 

At least now we have the mythical "momentum" going into the A's series.

And there's the walk off win.

 

lol You re-appear when they finally win one.

True. If they trade Price, it'd probably be someone like the Dodgers, Giants, or another contending team NOT in the AL East.

Great catch by the Puig.

 

Wow, looked awkward on the wrist though

[jaysfan2014]

Cleveland leading 3-0 on the beat-up Orioles, who are already still recovering from last night's crazy game they lost, especially when the bullpen was forced to throw a lot of innings.

[Captain Adama]

Not really related, but I actually ran into Dan Shulman just now. Really nice guy.

 

Plus, he's huge, gotta be like, 6'4-6'5

[GD]

My dad played basketball with him. He was pretty good. He's really nice, yeah.

[Daniel Labude]

Chris Sale mowing down the yanks

[Jimcanuck]

Morneau = Coors Effect or finally 100%

[TheHurl]

Morneau = Coors Effect or finally 100%

 

Has pretty good numbers on the road too though

[flafson]

The whole team has an average of around .295 which is crazy high.

[flafson]

O's go to extra innings.

[Deadpool]

Goddammit Os, LOSE!

[NorthOf49]

Morneau = Coors Effect or finally 100%

Morneau has a 143 wRC+ (with a reasonable .319 BABIP), meaning he's been legitimately great and isn't merely reaping the rewards of park factors.

 

------

Per Fangraphs, the Blue Jays are now a better than 50-50 bet to make the playoffs (55.6%)!

[Spoonovic]

JP Riccardi was right, Adam Dunn does not live and sleep baseball.
