    So if that same play happens but Lucroy did tag Bregman (so umps initially rule safe, but overturn it on replay), do the A's still lose because Lucroy threw the ball away? Or do they rule that had they gotten the call right, Lucroy never throws the ball to first and it's second and third with 2 outs? I was wondering the same thing. I'd assume that they'd rule the play over at that point.

    Maybe. It just seemed like every year he'd start out really strong (especially 2016), and then fall off a good bit by the end. Maybe it is just luck catching up.

    We'll see how he does in the second half. He's been really good in the past and then got injured/fatigued towards the end of the season. I was ok with letting him go but thought he could end up being a good pick up for another team.

    So the Cubs, who have one of the top offenses in baseball, are going to give up their top prospect for an injured, unnecessary, rental... can the Cards please hire Duquette after they fire Mo? That would be excellent.

    Come on down Zach Britton or Brad Hand amirite Brad Hand = yes Zach Britton = hell no. Britton hasn't shown anything yet this season coming back from injury, wasn't all that good last year, and would only be a rental. While I don't think Caratini is a top shelf trade piece, trading him for Britton would be a waste of one of the few pieces the Cubs have. That being said Caratini alone probably won't get Hand.

    If we're going to have a completely useless player on the roster, DFA this jackass and call up Taylor Davis. At least he's fun.

    One option for back up catcher could be Robinson Chirinos in Texas. He's in the last year of his contract, Texas sucks, and may not be too expensive to pick up. Caratini should not be the back-up. The only way he has value as a catcher is if he's getting plate appearances. I think he can be an above average hitter, but he's definitely not good behind the plate, which I value highly for the back up. Chirinos I think get's pretty good marks.

    Specifically, Northwestern.

    Tonight: The WTF Homer Night (and Rizzo)

    lol

    Kris went on a 3-1 count against Rizzo, it was ball 4, but the catcher threw to second anyways. Because of the shift, the thirdbaseman came over to back up the throw, meaning nobody was covering third, so Kris just ran to third.

    WHAT THE FU-oooooooooooooooooh, nice.

    Javy.

    Ok, that could easily be a strike, but still funny.
  16. sweetpeteman
    I was really hoping Lester would hit a grand slam. That would've been hilarious. Oh well.

    RussAAAll? RAAAssell? RuAAAell? RuAssAAell? Oh, yeah, AAAdison. Du'h. (note, this is a joke)

    What does that have to do with Matt Kemp? I think his point is that it is May. I think his point is that Matt Kemp is back on the Dodgers.
  21. sweetpeteman
    Your current NL batting leader: Matt Kemp.
  22. sweetpeteman
    That was more of a strike then the other ones.
  23. sweetpeteman
    Alright, Happ redeemed himself.
  24. sweetpeteman
    You know, I don't necessarily care if an ump expands a bit to get the damn game over, but this part pisses me off: He just took away an RBI from a player who may never get another chance for one.
  25. sweetpeteman
    1st strike was a foul, but the last strike to Hancock was also a ball.
