If we don't extend/re-sign Lucroy either this coming offseason or the one after that when he does hit free agency, I'm going to be mad. He is a truly special player and person and by FAR the best catcher we've had since Pudge.

Back the fucking truck up for him.

Really nice to get this one. Literally all of the other playoff contenders either have won or are winning right now.

Nope. Seattle is down 4-0 to Houston right now. Magic number could be 6 after tonight.

According to Wilson:

X-rays on Shin-Soo Choo's left forearm could not detect a fracture, so he's swinging a bat today could and start tee work today or tomorrow.

I'll believe it when I see it ...... I'm thinking this is just not his year. Hopefully he can stay on the field next season.

Houston is still technically a playoff contender tho.

Tell it to Lroy. He doesn't give a big one. LOL

Hoying in rf I don't get. What does he offer?

Doesn't matter now.

Houston winning lowers the magic number.

We kept pace with Cleveland.

 

[RevSader]

yeah! I was never worried cause the A's are trash and we are awesome!

 

[Nightcrawler]

I agree with y'all..... I don't like Bannisters fixation with Hoying. I'd rather have Stubbs. He is much better at the " late game defense" role.

High Desert championship series update.

Cleveland kept pace with us. They are behind!

What happens if choo gets healthy in October? I mean, Gomez hasn't been perfect, but he's played exceptional defense and produced some power.

I'm over it for this season..... to be honest. We have changed the line up and messed with this teams mojo at least 3 or 4 times to try and re-integrate him. I'd rather go with Gomez who you know is healthy and is helping the team. We could bring Choo back and the guy might be so rusty that he's not effective..... Or just gets hurt for the 100th time this year.

Maz could be out. But that is a good question.

 

[RevSader]

Holy Shit...read this

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Desmond looks like he did at the beginning of the year. We really need him to find that power stroke in time for the playoffs.

I can think so many times after trade deadline deals just flop but this has been a bonanza.

Frankly a problem I would like to have. As you've said these things seem to work themselves out.

Maz has picked up some at the plate. Hope he starts raking again. We need that and Des to get going.
