12 of the next 15 games are against playoff teams

[cezero]

All Rays/A's/Rangers with a 3-game series against Anaheim in the middle.

Actually, for the rest of August, only playing a total of 6 games against sub-.500 teams.

Prepare for pain, but hope for some sort of miracle, I guess.

 

[unlvmariners]

Could be a brutal stretch of games.

 

[Logicallylethal]

Watch we somehow win 12 of 15...and the 3 we lose to will be the angels series lol

 

[Thisnamewasntaken]

As long as we body Anaheim I'm good. I'd take more wins though!

 

[cezero]

excellent start

hope the bats can keep it up because pitching is really scary right now.

 

[cezero]

almost hard to believe the m's would lose a lead in the bottom of the 9th

SHOCKER

Its amazing the leads the bullpen has blown this year, I just turn it off now when there coming in...

 

[SeattleCoug]

Farq was bound to blow one eventually. You cant expect a guy to come in and dominate right away. Nothing really surprises me with this team anymore. We have proven we can come back from 5 run deficits and also proven we can blow 5 run leads. We can put up 10 runs or get 2 hit. Really we are just not a consistent team and I have come to accept it for this year.

 

[cezero]

As of right now, Saunders has only worked us into a 4-run deficit.

But the night is young.

Joe Saunders is a disaster waiting to happen. dude sucks.

 

[cezero]

This series is almost over, mercifully.

Don't worry, though, we always tear it up at Arlington!

Joe Saunders is a disaster waiting to happen. dude sucks.

What are they paying him this year? It's obvious he's not even worth 10% of his contract.

$6.5 million

$6.5 million

THAAAAAT'S Criminal.....

 

[cezero]

no hits through 4 for the m's.

uh oh.

 

[cezero]

nightmare avoided with a couple of hits now

kuma really impressive as usual. hope they can get him in position to get a w.

 

[cezero]

2-2!

KEEP IT GOING!!!!!

 

[cezero]

3-3 now in this stretch. Couldn't ask for a whole lot better so far.

Next up: Oakland! And no BarHGHtolo Colon!

I was very much "prepare for the pain" -- but then again this team can be surprising at times, so I have to say this was it was a very successful road trip. 2 out of 3 from Oakland and Texas? And 5-4 for the road trip? You gotta be happy about that.

 

[cezero]

Yes, an excellent road trip.

A lot to look forward to next year barring disastrous choices from Z.
