[Munson]

Lead off Whit walk.

[Why Not?]

If you’re highly apathetic, nothing that half of the 1st did brought you any closer to giving a fuck.

[Munson]

Dozier dong!

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Dozier!!

[Dartgod]

Dozier is locked in.

[Munson]

Owings with the 2-run bomb!

[SPchief]

Owings bomb!

[Dartgod]

Owings power!!

[BlackHelicopters]

Break ‘em up.

[Why Not?]

Dozier on fire right now.

[Dartgod]

Why wouldn't they review that?

[KCUnited]

Hopefully ol boy understands catching one in the wallet next plate appearance.

[Coach]

Nice play Mondi.

[Coach]

Why wouldn't they review that?

Only thing I can think of is that Mondi didn't had "total" control of the ball when throwing it.

Other than that, I have no idea.

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

You can’t stop Owings!! You can only hope to contain him

[TLO]

“Batting 7th & slashing .182/.269/.364, your 33 year old platoon first basemen, Lucas Dooooooodaaah!”

[Coach]

Gordo still got it defensively, folks.

[Munson]

That was a hell of a throw!

[smithandrew051]

Holy shit

[WhawhaWhat]

That was incredible. Give another gold glove to Alex.

[LoneWolf]

Gordon is having a great start to this season both offensively and defensively.

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Bullshit!!

[Munson]

I don't see how they overturned that.

[tk13]

That's an all universe play by Gordon, even if he didn't get him at first.

[tk13]

Joe West in the house.

[Munson]

We got fucked out of 2 double plays in one inning.

[Coach]

This will be interesting....

[petegz28]

That's a bullshit call....

[petegz28]

We got ****ed out of 2 double plays in one inning.

We didn't get fucked...but allowing the run to score was bullshit

[kc rush]

Well this inning is horse shit

[Coach]

We didn't get fucked...but allowing the run to score was bullshit

O'Hearn wouldn't had any chance to get him out regardless. He was already past halfway 3rd/home area by the time O'Hearn got the ball.

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Unreal

[Munson]

And just like that, our 3-run lead is gone.

[WhawhaWhat]

That was a good pitch too, just not good enough.

[Why Not?]

Had a chance to pound Santana early. 3-0 could’ve been 5 or 6-0. Now we pay.

[petegz28]

well this inning went to shit fast

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Get Fillmyer out of there

[zigbazah]

Fillmyer's so soft in tight spots. Always gets away from him.

[kc rush]

Finally

[Dartgod]

Surprise, surprise. Pete shows up just in time to argue that we got ****ed by the umps when in fact, they made the right call every time.

[Munson]

Seems like it took 45 minutes to get 3 outs.

[BlackHelicopters]

Heath sucks.

[BlackHelicopters]

And *poof* our lead is gone.

[ArrowheadHawk]

Are you supposed to try for four outs when the umpire may have gotten it wrong? How the fuck do you score that run?

[Coach]

There's that speed.

[Munson]

That'll do.

[Coach]

Great situational hitting Merrifield. Brings in a run.

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Can our bullpen hold a 1 run lead?

[Dartgod]

Can our bullpen hold a 1 run lead?

ROFL ROFL ROFL

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Good shit Barlow!

[Coach]

That was a stupid decision to run.

[Why Not?]

That was a stupid decision to run.

So stupid.

[TLO]

Inb4 the pen blows this.

[lewdog]

I am here.

Let's win!!!!

[Dartgod]

I am here.

Let's win!!!!

Sans pants?

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Dozier would’ve had that base stolen

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Why tf is Turberger in!! We lost

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

I called it

[Coach]

Fuck.

[BWillie]

Hahahhahaha

Turdberger

[Ron Swanson]

Cut that piece of shit.

[tk13]

That was fast.

[lewdog]

It's comical.

[Munson]

Why tf is Turberger in!! We lost

.....and he gives up the 2-run home run. :cuss:

[lewdog]

Sans pants?

Underwear and shorts tonight.

No shirt though, Boo.

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

I fucking hate this guy. Gives up a home run loterally wverytime

[BlackHelicopters]

Boxberger needs to be boxed up and mailed to Omaha.

[kc rush]

So worthless

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

I’d rather have Owings then Boxberger. Fucking pos

[Great Expectations]

All Castillo needed was a slumpbuster, insert Boxberger and he goes yard.

And now he walks a hitless guy...

[Dartgod]

Second time we've walked this 0.00 hitter.

[BlackHelicopters]

Game over

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Cut this guy tomorrow. Everytime he’s in he’s allowed a home run

[Dartgod]

Just now getting someone up in the pen. :shake:

[Al Bundy]

Not sure why Ned is still going to pitch Boxberger.

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Wait we’re just now getting someone up

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Name one thing Boxberger has done well

[TLO]

Name one thing Boxberger has done well

Suck ass

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Soler better pinch hit for someone this inning

[Munson]

Name one thing Boxberger has done well

He's great at giving up the lead.

[Great Expectations]

Walking the guy was brilliant. All the other guys smoked the ball, the guy he walked was out easy at second.

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Good walk Owings!!

[Great Expectations]

Why isn’t Gore in for Owings?

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Why isn’t Gore in for Owings?

Cuz Owings isn’t slow

[Munson]

That was a shitty AB for Soler.

[Ron Swanson]

Great ab Soler

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Worthless soler. Fucking worthless

[Ron Swanson]

Why isn’t Gore in for Owings?

Because Ned

[Why Not?]

Soler sucks. Should’ve had someone bunt there. Would ensure a Merrifield AB with a runner in scoring position.

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Put Gore in now

[Coach]

Plate discipline was complete ass by Soler and Hamilton.

[Al Bundy]

The last 2 outs have been all pitches out of the zone..

[Great Expectations]

Cuz Owings isn’t slow

You have Hamilton, Whit and Mondesi coming up. Why not put Gore in to steal second?

Gore is faster than Owings and you aren’t putting Gore in for any of the other 3....

[Ron Swanson]

No reason to have Gore on the roster if you aren't going to use him in situations like that.

[MAHOMO 4 LIFE!]

Fuck this bullpen

[Why Not?]

6 lead off walks and only 1 scores. This is a really bad baseball team. People who think it’s only a bullpen problem are delusional.

[Why Not?]

**** this bullpen

But don’t get me wrong, definitely fuck this bullpen also.

[dlphg9]

Ned is a literal fucking retard. Let's constantly run Boxberger in to give up the lead. That fucking idiot needs DFA'd not put in every high leverage situation.

[carcosa]

FUCK!!!!!!

[Ron Swanson]

Ned is a literal ****ing retard. Let's constantly run Boxberger in to give up the lead. That ****ing idiot needs DFA'd not put in every high leverage situation.

He did the same shit with Soria, guy never learns.

[ROYC75]

https://media.tenor.com/images/b5dda7560931b021a640583425d353d2/tenor.gif6 lead off walks and only 1 scores. This is a really bad baseball team. People who think it’s only a bullpen problem are delusional.

[CasselGotPeedOn]

Ned is the biggest retard to ever win a World Series.

[dlphg9]

Cant wait for Yost's White Knights to come in here to defend the fucking retard.

[dlphg9]

You have Hamilton, Whit and Mondesi coming up. Why not put Gore in to steal second?

Gore is faster than Owings and you aren’t putting Gore in for any of the other 3....

Because Ned knows best. The arrogant asshole won a WS, because he was gifted a back end of the bullpen that was fool proof. He just has to be the smartest guy in the room. I love how defensive he gets over his dumb ass decisions.

[tk13]

I don't know what there is to defend. Pretty much every pitcher out there in that bullpen has been a disaster, except for Kennedy and now Barlow. Diekman has been better, but even this his last couple outings have taken him 25 pitches to get through an inning.

Boxberger has given up a run in 5 of his 9 appearances and 9 runs in 8 1/3 innings pitched. Most all of those are high leverage situations, so id say it's pretty fucking clear everyone but Ned that Boxberger cant handle pitching in the situations he keeps getting put into. He does the same shit every single year and puts dog shit players in the lineup every night, but some try to excuse it because he won a WS.

[Why Not?]

I don't disagree, Boxberger's not been good, but pretty much every pitcher we have does that.

This is our bullpen. Who is he supposed to throw out there?

Kennedy 1.13
Boxberger 9.72
Diekman 3.86
Peralta 7.71
Barlow 2.57
Sparkman 7.36
Lovelady 16.20
Newberry 9.00

That's on Dayton, not Ned. This doesn't even include Hill (9.00), Zimmer (9.00) and McCarthy (19.64). 8 of the 12 pitchers who have been in the bullpen have ERAs above 7. You aren't going to have any kind of sustained success relying on about two guys.

[jerryaldini]

He would have used Diekman but the first two due ups were righties. You don't want Newberry or Sparkman. Peralta unavailable. It's on Moore.

Don't get me started on Zimmer. Yeah he has a 9 ERA, but he only had 3 appearances and 2 of those he didn't allow a run, then they send him down for control problems, but wtf did they expect when he was hardly getting to pitch. They fucked him over.

[dlphg9]

I'd take Newberry and Sparkman over Boxberger. I know Boxberger will fuck it up.

[BWillie]

Ned is the biggest retard to ever win a World Series.

Boxberger was signed to be a closer or 8th inning guy for us. That isnt on Ned. Its too early in the season to just not utilize him the way the GM intended
