Series Thread: Assholes @ M's: July 26th - 28th

Good fight last night even though they fell short. Not usually into moral victories but they had a lot going against them last and that even before Flexen laid an egg.

Hurting Kyle Seager feelings doesn’t matter. The fact that Toro isn’t good enough at the moment that they have to pay top market rate to resign Seager now. Had they done a token deal to “go for it” they could’ve signed a friendly deal for Seager.

I kinda feel like the writing has been on the wall with Seager ever since the Mather incident. From my perspective it makes sense to keep him around but I get the sense both sides are moving on after the year.

A funny breakdown of the grand slam and hit by batter right after.
NSFW language in it.

Even Seager's wife posted something about the trade. I think he is ready to move on as well and I can't blame him. Even most prisoners get paroled at some point.

The only thing worse than worrying about a player's hurt feelings about a trade is the thoughts of a player's wife about a trade.

Good for him. Sometimes its little things that make a huge difference.

Absolutely. Sometimes it is more psychological than anything else. Good for him.

The astro announcers are taking about Seattle getting screwed on strike calls too.

I'm sure some will still be mad about Scott being mad.

Unfortunately one misplayed ball by Crawford might have fouled up Kikuchis day.

Hopefully the bats wake up but not looking promising so far

Seems like Toro might have some potential. Weird.

But haven't you heard how fun he is in the clubhouse? Can't sacrifice that kind of thing just to make the team better.

How long before Kikuchi is sent down for "fine tuning?"

Stat of the day. Houston is 101-61 all time vs the Mariners

I remember a time a lot of people including myself was so happy to have them join us in the division.

Each time he pitches recently, brings his option into question. At least for me.

You are really hung on that aren’t you. When the clubhouse isn’t happy that a veteran is traded should it not be reported?
