Morrow vs Come-On Chen!!!

We're winning a ****ing home game this month, so we're building positive mojo for over 24 hours. I've contacted mods, and blowfish has been locked from this thread. Additionally we might need to sacrifice a stupid ****ing Cards fan.

Yes we can! YEEESSSS WE CAN!!!

This is for Walmart and all of the things this unflappable institution stands for.

It's much, much harder to keep this losing streak going that it would be to just win a game or two. Even this losing streak can't escape entropy!

I'll be there cheering for the sweep. I'm not optimistic, though. Chen has dominated the Jays dating back to his Orioles day (seriously, look it up, he might be one of the most successful pitchers of all time against Toronto) and Morrow has been pitching poorly for a while now (very HR prone).

I think we actually did really, really well in that trade.
Escobar looks solid. I think Cain can be a very good CF and Odorizzi looks very good in the minors so far.

As I typed this, Escobar doubled. Love this kid so far.

I don't mind small ball but you need to be smart about it. Getz bunting there was retarded because Gordon is batting behind him. Every other at bat Gordon strikes out so you're wasting an out imo.

I have a question... for a team is absolutely doing everything it can to not score runs why do the Royals give away outs in the bottom of the 3rd?

Because it's Chris Getz. We can either bunt and advance the runner on 2nd and give up the out, or Getz can hit a slow roller to short, freeze the runner, and still give up the out. It's the lesser of two evils.

DeezNutz
