Escobar needs 3 RBI's to make it 3 RBI's 3 games in a row

[milkman]

I'm going to miss you Deez.

[cabletech94]

way to go deez!

[cabletech94]

I'm going to miss you Deez.

ROFL

[DeezNutz]

I'm going to miss you Deez.

Everyone will miss deeznutz? Not surprised.

[stonedstooge]

Jarrod Deezyson wishes you the best

[Ceej]

You had a good run.

However, we'll always remember you AlciDEEZ Nutz.

[petegz28]

someone tell me Dunn is not corking his bat

[stonedstooge]

FIRE

[Al Bundy]

Well... Mendoza is working his way to a loss already. It's almost like our starting pitchers do not want the lead.

[tk13]

Way to go Deez. This would've never happened if beer me was still here.

[kstater]

LMAO Burn that motherfocker down.

[tk13]

Adam Dunn is so hot he's going to burn the stadium down.

[stonedstooge]

Well... Mendoza is working his way to a loss already. It's almost like our starting pitchers do not want the lead.

Conceding the game with 1 run?

[lewdog]

You don't get out much, do you?

[Al Bundy]

Conceding the game with 1 run?

That is the first of many home runs the white trash sox will hit today.

[Nightfyre]

We banned the Doctor and not this douchenozzle?

[Mama Hip Rockets]

So I went to the K and was informed that the White Sox are a "premium game" and they charge extra for tickets. When and why did this happen?

[mr. tegu]

So Cain is batting cleanup? What is wrong with keeping him lower in the lineup for now Ned? And cleanup should probably never be his spot anyways.

[Al Bundy]

Shit. Sale looks on today.

[Ceej]

Shit. Sale looks on today.

Welcome to 2012.

[Sure-Oz]

Well fuck

[stonedstooge]

MMMOOOOSSSEEEEE

[Sure-Oz]

I have no idea how moose struggled at 3b in the minors.

[Nightfyre]

I think mendoza is sorta borderline mentally handicapped. Seriously.

[Shogun]

Moooooose

[lewdog]

Well Moose saved us a few fucking runs there!

[cabletech94]

So I went to the K and was informed that the White Sox are a "premium game" and they charge extra for tickets. When and why did this happen?

i saw it posted on the royals site back in feb when i was looking up allstar tickets.
if it's the yankees, red sox, or certain white sox games, you pay a "premium price".
just another reason to hate marketing.

it's just a business guys. david glass has to eat too, fellas.

[lewdog]

Picked up some cards at a garage sale around here. Last one is a Mike Moustakas autograph and game worn jersey card.

Nice collection of cards.

[Sure-Oz]

Watching Cain run all herky jerky makes me think his legs are going to fly off like forest gumps leg braces

[Nightfyre]

Don't worry about stealing Cain, yuni can't hit a sac fly anyway.

[stonedstooge]

Yuni knows not what a sacrifice is

[HemiEd]

Come on Moose!

[Al Bundy]

There was our chance... Mendoza like the rest of our starters won't give us much of a chance.

[Ceej]

I can't wait until moose can actually consistently hit left handers.

[Shogun]

Frenchy commercial lol

[Nightfyre]

Clutchscobar time!

[stonedstooge]

Escobar with an infield single

[stonedstooge]

Be an Allstar Billy

[Demonpenz]

what the fuck. Swing the bat at strikes.

[Nightfyre]

Billy seems off since the ASB.

[Nightfyre]

Just fucking throw strikes you fucktard.

[Sure-Oz]

A balk??

[stonedstooge]

Ned thinks thats a good call

[stonedstooge]

White Sux batters wearing WWF gear on their elbows

[Demonpenz]

Rany hates RBI's but I still think it is important to show that you can drive in runs.

[Nightfyre]

White Sux batters wearing WWF gear on their elbows

How do you think they improved so much as hitters?

[stonedstooge]

Cain has a nice stroke going

[Demonpenz]

Cain struggles against right handed sliders. Everything else he is good at.

[Nightfyre]

So, we should lock up Cain and Hosmer to long-term deals after this season. Prolly will be the best time to lock them both down.

[Ceej]

I'm having a hard time deciding on who to crush on.

Cain, or Perez?

Decisions, decisions.

:(

[lewdog]

Esk? Moose? :shrug:

[Ceej]

Esk? Moose? :shrug:

OVERLOAD, OVERLOAD, OVERLOAD.

[Nightfyre]

Don't overload just yet, you have to save room for when Myers comes up.

[gblowfish]

Change Pitchers. Let's not go all Bruce Chen here again....

[gblowfish]

Kia Jenn needs the social sirloin!

[stonedstooge]

Get him home Getz

[stonedstooge]

w00t. Getz with an RBI single. 2-1 Sux

[Ceej]

Don't overload just yet, you have to save room for when Myers comes up.

Assuming he gets called up...

[Canofbier]

Getz blooping for MORE POWER!

[stonedstooge]

Gordon singles to left. Runners at the corners, 1 out

[Nightfyre]

Clutchscobar time!

[stonedstooge]

Our Time Billay

[stonedstooge]

Mendoza looks like our ace

[Nightfyre]

MOOOOOOOOSE

[Shogun]

Billy for 1st baseman of the future?

[Nightfyre]

Do Royals batters not realize you need to work the count against pitchers like this to knock them out of the game? I mean seriously that inning was nine pitches. Nine fucking pitches. Had you worked him for 15-20 he wouldn't be back out in the seventh.

[Discuss Thrower]

BASEKNOCK

[Nightfyre]

I wonder if the Sox are going to bring out a right-handed reliever in the eighth, what with five ****ing righties in a row coming up.

[stonedstooge]

Nice job today Mendoza

[stonedstooge]

Need to score a pair here in the bottom of the 8th

[Three7s]

I'd love to get your opinion on pinch running for Konerko in that late inning situation, DeezNutz. And DON'T tell me it was because of injury.

[stonedstooge]

WHAT WOULD YA DO OH OH, FOR AN ES CO BAR

[Nightfyre]

The bigger question is why send Chris Sale out there against five consecutive righties and with 105 pitches under his belt?

[Bowser]

The bigger question is why send Chris Sale out there against five consecutive righties and with 105 pitches under his belt?

We call that the Meche Effect.

[Nightfyre]

Also - why not sac cain?

[stonedstooge]

Ned is shocked

[stonedstooge]

Welp I see Ned is back to fucking up

[Al Bundy]

No... Ryan he fucking shutdown one of Dayton's favorite players of all time.

[Nightfyre]

So seriously, why not bunt Cain up the 3B line? He has the legs to pull of a single and if not, a sacrifice puts two runners in scoring position and removes the double play that yuni fucking hit into like the worthless piece of shit that he is.

[Three7s]

Hey Betancourt, I heard the T-Bones could use a guy to hit grounders in fielding practice. You'd be a great fit for them.

[Sure-Oz]

Solid job down 1 that we put in Hosmer so he can't PH

[Nightfyre]

I am pretty sure Ned has cost us more games this year than any other Manager in the history of baseball.

[Sure-Oz]

Butler could've done that on defense

[Nightfyre]

I bet the Sox bunt em over.

[Nightfyre]

Well at least they tried to play smart.

[ILChief]

I am pretty sure Ned has cost us more games this year than any other Manager in the history of baseball.

Trey Hillman, Buddy Bell, Tony Pena, Tony Muser.....

Either Royals always hire bad managers or they are cursed

[Nightfyre]

Drop him with a changeup, timmy!

[Demonpenz]

Collins was hittable on friday and looks hittable today. Bentencourt :(

[stonedstooge]

Nice catch by Cain

[Demonpenz]

Damn collins 400 foot out.

[Demonpenz]

Yook is going to pound one here.

[Nightfyre]

Cain has a good arm. I didn't realize how good of an arm he has.

[stonedstooge]

Collins needs to finish his pitches. He's standing straight up after he throws

[KevB]

I am pretty sure Ned has cost us more games this year than any other Manager in the history of baseball.

The continued use of Yuni outside of the 8/9 spot now that we're healthy tells me all I need to know about Yost. He's got a couple of home runs stuck in his memory, instead of looking at the numbers to understand exactly what he doesn't bring to the table.

[cabletech94]

Yook is going to pound one here.

the only thing yook is gonna pound is some 6 packs in about 30 minutes.:)

[mr. tegu]

I haven't gotten to watch but after going through the thread it sounds like we had some more high quality managerial moves today.

[stonedstooge]

Ned says Your Welcome

[Nightfyre]

Whew

[DeezNutz]

Power of my thread held the Sox to 2, so it's out of my hands now.

[Reaper16]

Quality Start.

[Demonpenz]

Hitters ballpark and day. 1 run awesome.

[mr. tegu]

Here comes Bourgois.

[mr. tegu]

Let's go Getz!

[stonedstooge]

Bring him home Getz

[Raiderhater]

Here comes Bourgois.


And there he goes... to second.

[Raiderhater]

:grr:

[Al Bundy]

Royals with no effort today on offense.

[Bowser]

One run off of ten hits. Fire the tackling coach.

[Nightfyre]

Ramirez single-handedly won that game for them with his defense today.

[Three7s]

I've never seen a team so allergic to RBIs as the Royals.

[Ceej]

Man I'm good.

said in the other game thread if Mendoza could be effective and the team could score three today we should be okay.

[sedated]

No excuse for losing this one.

With an offense that is supposed to save the starting pitching, we waste a great outing by Mendoza.

[KCUnited]

I've never seen a team so allergic to RBIs as the Royals.

Bad luck.

[sedated]

I've never seen a team so allergic to RBIs as the Royals.

With a giant hole in the middle (frenchy), its not that shocking. At this point, its like having Tony Pena Jr batting 5th. Every. Single. Game.

[gblowfish]

Royals are 11 games under .500, .437 pct, Mendoza to 3-6.
Betancourt's average drops to .238. Can't move a runner to save his ass.
Hosmer is at .224, now has sunk to being used as a defensive replacement.

At least Cain has looked good the last couple games. Still, do you think this team is much better than last year? On this date last year they were 38-55. Now they're 38-49, so.... they haven't won any more, but they've lost less. Does that make you feel any better?

[Nightfyre]

Betancourt has been far more of a hole since the break than Frenchy. Frenchy has actually put together some good ABs since the break. We would be 3-0 if it weren't for Yost, however.

[sedated]

3 games?

ALL STAR GAME!!!

[Pasta Little Brioni]

You try and hit Chris Sale. The guy has shut down pretty much everyone.

[Three7s]

You try and hit Chris Sale. The guy has shut down pretty much everyone.
Actually they did, they just couldn't get an RBI to save their lives. Double-digit hits.

[Reaper16]

Actually they did, they just couldn't get an RBI to save their lives. Double-digit hits.

And no-digit walks.

[DeezNutz]

Yuni in, what, the five-hole today? That's Hillman smart.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Actually they did, they just couldn't get an RBI to save their lives. Double-digit hits.

Imagine if they tried!!!!!!

[Sure-Oz]

Saw 'rumors' on twitter that possibly there was some argument or yelling after the game in the dugout, possibly with Francouer and maybe Betancourt. It's probably false im sure

I hope they killed each other.

[Sure-Oz]

I hope they killed each other.

Reading the tweets i searched it seemed that yuni and frenchy had to be seperated and pena took betancourt to the tunnel. Not sure if its true but someone tweeted at nate bukaty about it and had 1 follower.

LMAO

One of the downsides of twitter IMO. Probably nothing new in the baseball world, they're around each other every day for 8 months, fights are gonna happen. No reason to blow it up.

[Brianfo]

They both suck and need to go. If this team is ever gonna be good Yuni and Francouer will be a punch line at the office party. They both suck.

[gblowfish]

Argument went like this:

Frenchy: I WANNA BE TRADED!
Yuni: No, I Wanna be traded!!!
Frenchy: YOU'VE already been traded once!
Yuni: So? I can play any position on the infield, and I speak TWO languages!
Frenchy: Yeah, well, I PLAYED FOR ATLANTA!
Yuni: Big Deal....you've struck out 64 times!
Frenchy: You're only hitting .238. At least I'm over .250!
Yuni: I've got more RBI's than you in HALF the at bats!
Frenchy: SCREW YOU...
Yuni: NO SCREW YOU!!!
Pena (pulling Yuni away, in Spanish): If you get traded to Anaheim, make me the player to be named later. I'll never start in front of Salvie.....

[Demonpenz]

Frenchy: I want TO SWING AT THE FIRST PITCH
YUNI: I WANT TO SWING AT THE FIRST PITCH
Trey Edwards Yost: Guys guys. Yuni will swing at the first pitch Frenchy you swing at the ball in the dirt.

Frenchy: Deal!
Yuni: Deal!

[DeezNutz]

Frenchy: I want TO SWING AT THE FIRST PITCH
YUNI: I WANT TO SWING AT THE FIRST PITCH
Trey Edwards Yost: Guys guys. Yuni will swing at the first pitch Frenchy you swing at the ball in the dirt.

Frenchy: Deal!
Yuni: Deal!

I love all of you. /DM
