Series Thread: Homestand 5/27 - 6/5

[NWinAZ]

the one that PV came up with for Polanco. my oh my.

I missed that one.

 

[cezero]

Great point.


Ya, Garver must go for Ford to come up. Dumb otherwise.


Not my favorite choice, but I could live with it. It's not because of Williamson but more of Solano must go!!!!!

lolololol. I just looked up what Dipoto said about Solano because I remember it being so ludicrous.

The "not necessarily in that order" made me laugh so hard when I was reading that again.

DIPOTO: "We went out and we added what we think is a real veteran presence in our clubhouse, quiet pro in a guy like Donovan Solano, who's been excellent against left-hand pitching, and pretty good against the righties as well," Dipoto said. "He can play a number of different positions, but in recent years, it's been more first base (and) third base, and not necessarily in that order. And we felt like, you know, the addition of Donovan really gave us a stabilizer. It allowed us to have a potential answer at one or two positions, or it allowed us the ability to platoon at either."

Could not have missed the mark any more if he was Stevie Wonder shooting at acorn.

What pure BS! Seriously, how can he be this freaking stupid??????????

 

[Tapey]

I couldn’t help but notice that Snider is still on the roster?

Yeah, makes sense.

Trust us with the kind of ownership that wants to destroy their own team...

I still think OKC is trying for another Seattle team, just that no one's telling us yet.

Raley's back soon and has to play somewhere.

I would be shocked if that state could financially support another professional sporting franchise

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

talk about keeping it real lol.

What pisses me off the most is the "what ifs" with this team.

 

[cezero]

4-0 with back to back homers by Cal and Arozarena. Keep it up fuckers.

 

[Tapey]

 

[Tapey]

Cal is the first catcher in history with 20 home runs before the end of May

 

[NWinAZ]

Raley's back soon and has to play somewhere.

I was thinking about that the other day trying to figure out who they said out. I still don't l know.

 

[NWinAZ]

I was thinking as the game started who Foolio reminded me of then it hit me. Buxton. Both tease with talent, but both let you down. Buxton with injuries and Foolio with inconsistency.

I looked up their wRC+ for the last 4 years and Foolio has a 128 and Buxton a 126.

 

[NWinAZ]

Oh, its 4-2 by the way. Just another slow death waiting for us.

Foolio can’t even square up a middle middle fastball.

Hell, he can’t even make good contact and drive a ball on back to back middle middle fastballs.

Your honor, I present exhibit 1:

 

[WizardHawk]

Another 6+ effort by the most consistent pitcher the M's have this year.

 

[NWinAZ]

Could this mean something?

 

[cezero]

Woo completely berating himself and pissed as he walked off the field.

I feel like he would've been the same even if we had an 8 run lead. He keeps himself fired up.

 

[WizardHawk]

1 run lead doesn't feel like enough. Not at all
