[Tapey]

Bases loaded no out, we get one run.

And there goes Happ's trade value...if there ever was any.

 

[NWinAZ]

SucKre with his 1st career hit...I mean homerun.

 

[unlvmariners]

I tuned in just in time for Sucre's homer. Good for him!

Does anyone know why Happ was taken out of the game? Injury? or did he just suck balls?

Hey now 50% of his hits are homers LOL

not watching tonight

curious if i was right about the stands looking like a jays game instead of m's game

Wasn't able to catch the game last night, but today it looks like it's mostly Blue Jays fans. They practically gave J.A. Happ a standing ovation when he was pulled.

He walked two batters with the bases loaded. Walked 3 straight.

Can Taylor even pull a ball? All I ever see is fly outs to RF.

only in the minors can he pull it.

I actually like his approach at the plate its his ability at the plate that isn't quite there. Yet to be said if he gets there ever or not.

He walked two batters with the bases loaded. Walked 3 straight.

So he just sucked... That is unfortunate I was hoping he would increase his trade value.

 

[seahawksfan234]

Robbie going the opposite way!

God damn I'm so used to Cano pounding the ball into the ground or striking out in that situation.

Pretty much, couldn't have looked worse. His command was really off today, it was probably a smart move by Lloyd to pull him even though it was only 3 runs.

This game has had me go from HAPPy to sad back to HAPPy again.

He wasn't off by much and got squeezed on a couple outside strikes that were called balls. I think that got to his head. Funny thing is is that Nino just got a couple of those same pitches called strikes.

Great change of pace, that's for sure. That's his 6th HR in July.

Just wait until Lloyd puts Rodney in.

That better not HAPPen

And final point on Happ, he and Sucre were struggling to get on the same page. I think they had 3 mound visits in Happ's short time in the game and a lot of shake offs as well.
