Go A's btw

toxic rooster 06-14-2013 12:55 AM

so they are having the opening series 'down under' in 2014. I can't wait to be horrifically gouged like the rest of you get to be, every single day

Skippord 06-14-2013 12:57 AM

you may get to see the Dodgers and D'Backs fight

and baseball games aren't that expensive

toxic rooster 06-14-2013 01:04 AM

bleacher tickets start at $70US

RoXer 06-14-2013 01:05 AM

Jesus

toxic rooster 06-14-2013 02:51 AM

right?

toxic rooster 06-14-2013 02:52 AM

is Moylan still with the Dodgers? would be amazing to see him fire a few in front of his own 'home crowd'

Skippord 06-14-2013 03:00 AM

he is, but that may be temporary

not pitching very well

toxic rooster 06-14-2013 03:04 AM

it would probably be more beneficial if both of those games finished 20-19. ain't nobody here want to see a boring ass no-hitter 'mate'

RoXer 06-14-2013 03:09 AM

Those prices aren't for both games?

toxic rooster 06-14-2013 03:30 AM

nuuuuuuuuup

Bad News Gertner 06-14-2013 03:48 AM

Esmil Rogers......I have no words. Guy can't get a batter out if his life depended on it as a reliver, moves to starter and is unhittable.

Skippord 06-14-2013 05:31 AM

He's a terrible terrible reliever, I always thought he had potential as a starter though. Got jerked around a ton here.

DaveBrawl 06-14-2013 09:42 AM

Fowler, Tulo and Cargo in one game? And now the freefall begins.

The Condor 06-14-2013 11:43 AM

O's beating the Red Sox in extras was a decent consolation to that NYY game. Thanks Droford.

He throws a lot of breaking balls. That's a receipe for disaster in Coors Field.

MLB suspended 8 people from the Dodgers-Dbacks brawl a couple of days ago.

Diamondbacks:
* Ian Kennedy - 10 games
* Eric Hinske - 5 games
* Kirk Gibson - 1 game

Dodgers:
* J.P. Howell - 2 games
* Skip Schumaker - 2 games
* Mark McGwire - 2 games
* Ronald Belisario - 1 game
* Don Mattingly - 1 game

Mattingly and Gibson were suspended because of the team's actions and not anything specific they did during the brawl. Same for McGwire but Belisario was suspended for for what he did during the brawl.

Damian Rey 06-14-2013 04:27 PM

They should suspend starting pitchers for starts, instead of games.

That is true, he had an issue with his slider breaking too much and becoming incredibly wild and then his fastball would get hammered.

Glad to hear he's doing well though.

Kennedy got off easy. He should have had 25 games (5 starts.)

Doing pitcher suspensions in five's achieves the same purpose. He misses two starts.

No he shouldn't have.

The bigger travesty is Grienke getting off scot free.

SlickyTrickyDamon 06-15-2013 12:19 AM

Other than getting hit in the face with a baseball? Greinke did the retaliatory bean in the proper place: the back. That's where you're supposed to do it when you are intentionally throwing at somebody.

No he doesn't.

When Cole Hamels got suspended for throwing at Harper it was five games and he missed zero starts.

The throw at Puig wasn't intentional. The throw at Grienke clipped the back of his front shoulder instead of the back.

But that's because Kennedy has had some control issues all year :(

The Condor 06-15-2013 01:20 AM

Well, I'm a mark for the O's especially when they beat up on the RedSux. Thanks again, Droford

Skippord 06-15-2013 01:21 AM

the Rockies lead the league in heartbreaking come from behind losses

Frank Drebin 06-15-2013 02:20 AM

Manny Machado. Wow.

ClockShot 06-15-2013 07:54 AM

This Yankees road trip went to hell in a hurry.

Bad News Gertner 06-15-2013 10:04 AM

Mark Buehrle.

If someone asks "What's a crafty lefty mean"?, point to last nights performance. Amazing.

Damian Rey 06-15-2013 12:45 PM

Padres take two of four in Colorado, and played so well, Cargo, Fowler and Tulo were all injured shortly after, then sweep Atlanta, and rattle off a fourth consecutive victory, defeating Arizona last night on "1998 Night".

They're, I believe, just a game or two under 500, and have gone something like 26 or 27 and 19 after starting 5-15.

They still don't have enough starting pitching to make this last. Stults and Marquis are smoke and mirroring their way to solid seasons, but you can't bank on guys with low strikeout totals and below average BABIPs to keep it going. At some point, they will get hit. Volquez is too inconsistent, and Clayton Richard has never been anything more than a league average pitcher, and he's been less than that pretty much since 2010. Cashner is great, but he's an injury risk, and this is his first full season as a starter.

If the Padres somehow miraculously get enough games over .500 to get into contention, they're going to need some starting pitching. Not a ton out there that's readily available, and I'd rather not drain the farm of talent when I still think the team is another year or two away.

YOUR Hero 06-15-2013 01:48 PM

someone should break Greinke's collar bone

OssMan 06-15-2013 02:23 PM

Different seating areas for women in Australia?

Emperor Smeat 06-15-2013 07:57 PM

Wow what a blunder by the Os at the end of the game. Bailey was almost handing them the win with how bad he was in the 9th for the Sox.

Innovator 06-16-2013 12:05 AM

This road trip needs to end

Frank Drebin 06-16-2013 02:51 AM

Lol White Sox. Haven't seen a game end in a pickoff live in like 10 years. I memba a cubs yankees game at wrigley that ended with a pickoff. Was it Luis Sojo who got picked off?
