MLB Daily Thread: 07-31-17: Yanks win 3 of 4 to take AL East lead

[DirtDirtDirt]

Watching the Mets try to stick it to the Yankees at the cost of their own franchise, is fun to watch

Duda to Tampa for nothing

Reed will be heading to Boston today for nothing

 

[bksballer89]

He will be missed

da fuk? And here I was gonna fast with you tomorrow. Maybe I'll eat a carrot cake instead.

Is it Ramadan already?

And WTH is that "Maple Corners" thingy at Safeco? and going "Eh! Eh! Eh!" with two strikes? I get it, the pitcher is from Canada, but it's nearly as bad as the Judges Chambers

Maybe we'll get Jackie Bradley, Jr. I'll be leading the "Go Gamecocks" cheer at Shiti Field

dominic smith, mets 1B. get. him. now.

LATEST PLAYER NEWS
Smith was not in the lineup Thursday at Triple-A Las Vegas, and he's expected to be called up soon, Kristie Ackert of the New York Daily News reports.
Spin:
The first baseman is set to take his place on the major-league club following the Thursday trade of Lucas Duda to the Rays. After a crisp climb through the ranks, Smith has nothing left to prove at the highest minors level given his .337/.390/.524 line with 15 homers, 68 RBI and 72 runs scored across 449 plate appearances this year. Fantasy owners who still can grab him should do so as soon as possible.

PCL.

Seriously, the Mets are going to ruin somebody's dinner in September when we get all our pitching back

 

[Rock Strongo]

Meh...stay away. He's a Mets first baseman, after all. If he ever does ANYTHING, it won't be in our uniform.

All the talk is still about Rosario, especially after Reyes got hit on the forearm yesterday. But after trading Duda, we don't have many good options at first. Most of our other infielders are better on the left side/they suck at first, and Collins doesn't seem to want Jay Bruce to play there.

I say, bring everybody up right now. I mean, we lost two out of three to the Mariners...that's suicide-level embarrassment.

i know they were waiting on rosario for control purposes...

It's the Canookians response to the King's Court chanting 'K, K, K'. Worse thing that ever happened to Felix. That bullshit needs to go away.

PCL.

yup, and a lot of good bats HAVE come out of the PCL...and good pitching.

Agree, this soccer-fication of baseball needs to end, league-wide. Don't even get me started on that lame-ass "7 Train Army"

has Cotton been hiding the gay Seattle version of the Judge's chambers from us?

Yes, and a lot of players have been overrated because of their PCL performances. This is the first year Smith has shown any real power and that could very well be attributed to the PCL. Not saying he's going to be a bust, but I do think there's some reasons to be skeptical about him.

Oh, it's BAD...

At least with Judge, we only see those wig-wearing 'tards when he's up to bat, and even then, only up until he strikes out.

But these Canuckers...it's cringeful.

RED SOX GET ADDISON REED

For 3 shitty Minor Leaguers

Just saw Rosenthal reporting this.

And he can move back into his setup role, where he's most valuable. Great move for Boston.

Word. Fag-o-meter, on a scale of 1-100.

Judge's Chambers 78
Paxton's Canadian Maple Tree Leaf Whatever 82
Red Sox outfielder dance 97
Anything Derek Jeter 100

Apparently they turned down much better offers for Duda and Reed, because

I just made that all up, but fuck the Mets anyway

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

Really bummed they traded Duda. Streaky hitter for sure, but solid defensively...and when he was hot, he was HOT.
