Man. Danny Duffy has been rough for the Royals this year. Dayton Moore has to be kicking himself for hanging onto him when they could have traded him multiple times and gotten a hefty return.

Trading him multiple times would require some serious GM'in.

I got to that site just in time to see a couple bombs.

 

We woulda been bragging about them even if you got here two hours late.

Was it just last night I said this? Forgive me. But....

 

Cruz is a late karma present for Ortiz.

 

The only question is whether his option is picked up vs an extension.

I don't ask much, just one or two more runs per inning. That's all I ask.

Gonna be tough to switch over to watch the top of the 9th in an attempted no-hitter in Houston while the Twins are up to bat.

A little risky to give a 39 year old anything other than picking up his 1 year option

Batman took care of Superman a movie or three ago.

Sorry, Marvel guy who cares a little, grew up on DC, then discovered Marvel and have been all in since. Still like DC. Marvel crazy!

 

Did I mention I'm a nerd but a very cool nerd? Lol

Doesn’t seem right that your team has 71 wins, finds itself in need of TWO starters and they actually want Aaron Sanchez, then he goes and pitches well.

Trying to decide between a six or seven year extension for Nelson Cruz.

A seven year extension for the gentleman who takes care of Mr Cruz's bats. If Mr Cruz would like to retain his services for a decade or two after that, the club will gladly consider.

I think you’ll need to leave that up for the rest of us to decide

The serious baseball discussions are down the hall, to your left.

Yeah, a couple of us have been warming up crow lately.

 

For instance, I was so disgusted with Sano I suggested he get sent back down to Triple A.

There has to be some good recipes by now, Right?

 

Sorry, kinda want you and others to pick a feather or two out of your teeth in regard to Sano. And I'm NOT a mean person. Just like being right. Hehe! Lol

I don't know how silver slugger works (I assume BBWAA?), but, is Cruz leading the pack at DH without much difficulty right now, or is someone else just going the EFF off right now? *throws salt over shoulder*

Thanks for the heads-up. Got it going on bilasport

Nice inning for Gibby, while no one was noticing. Hope it's not a jinx to enjoy the result.

 

Now it's time to face the challenge that is Jorge Soler.

Except....i know where you all live online. Be warned! (Evil laugh, etc)

Salt over the shoulder, just in case.

Can't believe Soler swung at that

Are Dick and Bert not of the mind that 2-seamers are fastballs?

Not bad Gibson

3-2 battle then 2 1-pith outs

 

wow...

Po-Po-Polancoooooooooooo !!

Cruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuzzz !!

 

What's that funny dance that Cruz and Sano do? I think I seen Eddie do it too. lol

It's called the Bomba Polka

 

 

My wife thinks the Derek Jeter insurance add where he walks up to and strikes up a conversation with a random six-year-old girl without any parents around is super creepy.

 

And now I can’t un-see how extremely creepy it is.

Some day! That would be a hoot. My wife says I spend too much time on these blogs. "They're my friends!" I tell her. She: "No they're not. Not one of them will show up for your funeral." I say to you all, prove my wife wrong and come pay your respects when my time comes. And, yes, you're all in the will.

If you come to mine, I’ll come to yours!

Two innings in a row with no bombas.

 

wtf is up with that?

Apparently Duffy is his own long man tonight.

Thanks for mentioning this! I watched it on MLB network! \m/

Weird, Duluth is east of the Mississippi. Would expect it’s call letters to start with a “W”.

Yeah, like WCCO.

I'm not dyslexic, but just now, my brain saw "Gibson" as "Bigson" and before I could even correct it in my head, I was wondering if he was the largest of his siblings. Why am I like this?
