Game Thread: 7/17 Champs @ Snakes

Machi is going to get abused this weekend. Might as well use up his arm before we kick him to the curb...

 

[calsnowskier]

Why is Machi still around?

He will likely be gone by Monday.

 

[calsnowskier]

That was low.

Bad zone.

 

[BroncoInCALI]

I am so tired of losing to this team.....

 

[Band of Brothers]

I heard Affeldt has a chance of coming back Monday.

Not much longer...Hudson back, he gone

 

[SFGRTB]

why Why WHY do fans reach for the baseballs?! It's not worth getting kicked out over.

 

[Band of Brothers]

nice snag there.

 

[calsnowskier]

Are they going to demote Sick in favor of Patty?

I guess you have to (of to?) but that type of move hurts...

 

[Band of Brothers]

5-2 D-Backs..that one hurt

I understand the point, but Machi just can't get through an inning anymore. Dude is done.

 

[calsnowskier]

Get him out of CF.

He is killing us out there.

 

[BroncoInCALI]

Aaron Hill has made a career against us, it seems.

And can we just leave Machi at the stadium?

 

[calsnowskier]

Yeah. No benefit if you simply can't get outs.

 

[SFGRTB]

Yeah. No benefit if you simply can't get outs.

He was even helped out by the umpire's whack zone. Feel bad for the guy, but so goes the life as a reliever.

 

[Band of Brothers]

Kontos continues to shine. MVP of the Pen.

3 or 4 years making the MLB minimum us more than most people make in their entire career. I have no sympathy for him losing his job.

 

[SFGRTB]

Meanwhile, Kontos continues to dominate. Talk about 2 guys who trended in opposite directions.

 

[calsnowskier]

I don't care who pitches the ninth inning. Kontos is this year's closer.

 

[Band of Brothers]

Cubs , Pirates , and Mets lost tonight
