Note to Graham.  First, don't chirp before you've even thrown a pitch.  Second, first pitch slider says I'm scared.

 

And A-Rod takes a curtain call.  They should throw syringes at him.  But of course, being New York, they love him.  He's the sports equivalent of an investment banker.  Paid his fine, now he's back making money again, probably doing the same stuff he did before.

 I know this is really petty - and I am assuming he is being heavily monitored, but I would love for him to get busted again.  I am assuming he is not that stupid - but he probably is that arrogant.

Where's May?  And seriously, I mean the player and the month :-)

I'm not even mad. That wasn't surprising at all. It's like watching a bad movie that's way too predictable.

Does Charlie brown still get heartbroken every time Lucy pulls the football away? I feel like I should stop being heartbroken every time we poo ourselves against NY

No, no Dick, didn't you hear, the bullpen is fine, no worries.

I like JR Graham.  I don't mind that he's been stashed all year for future benefit.  But to Chief's recurring point through this thread, if he's the best option in the bullpen to face A-Rod with the bases loaded in a tight game....??!!

I'm so glad work will prevent me from watching tomorrow's day game. The only thing that can stop my self abuse

Bringing in the closer in the 8th for Sano...that's pretty high praise for the rook.

Is Trevor May available tonight? Serious question.

 

Saving him for the ninth? Who knows?

Chuck could be a member of our bullpen.

If Gardner hadn't caught that Mauer ball to the corner it would have landed fair and been called foul.

Everyone assumes that he is heavily monitored....but he's not.  He is subject to 9 random tests thru the year and 3 of those are blood tests.  Keep in mind that Arod has never actually tested positive.  He knows how to beat the system.

I'm glad sano didn't homer there. I don't need any more heartbreak.

The home plate umpire has called a pretty lousy game. Honestly haven't known what the call would be on any given pitch.

 

Once again. If Ryan had any dignity at all he would resign at the end of This season, if he was a stand up MAN he would have resigned a week ago.

As much as I hate what Ryan is doing and think he needs to get the hell out, what are the chances the next GM isn't Antony or another one of the good old boys club?

That is the definition of not being petty.

Hell of a response there.

Charlie usually yells out "AUGHH"

Good thing betances was unavailable tonight.

That wasn't real similar to what I yelled.

 

Hey might as well leave graham in to make sure we lose another!

At least the bullpen can take the 9th off

Robinson'll come up. He'll get the job done.

 

No losin' hope. Just hold 'em for this inning and next.

 

And maybe we could consider a little team conga line...

Whyyyyy is graham still in? Why paul why?

I guess we should keep Graham in there.

I'm going with the Yankees tacking on this inning.

Television off

Are the Twins trying to trade May or something?

And that's the end of our game DONK!

let 'em get a few more runs so May can come in when it doesn't matter.
