Pena is hitting pretty well in Sept, with a .295 avg and .689 OPS. He's just not hitting with any power right now.

Dubon and Chas are hitting well right now, as are Bregman, Altuve, and Yordan. The problem lately is the two usual suspects in Abreu and Maldanado, and oddly enough Tucker. King Tuck has a .200 average and .685 OPS for September. Batting Tucker and Abreu back to back right now seems like an extra terrible idea.

Of course, Yainer is another guy that is hitting really well, but that has been beaten to death.

Sept Only


  • Yordan aint human
  • What we're doing to Yainer is criminal even with his Ks recently
  • Altuve ****s on your "x" stats.
  • Breggy ain't slowing down. He's now 1 of 2 players (Luis Arraez) with more BB than K.
  • Chas & TED carried the team in July & Aug, we should be able to stomach a down couple of weeks.
  • Doobie is getting lucky, but also playing very well.

That looks exactly like a roster I would expect to drop 4 of 6 to the A's and Royals.

Man I'm on pins and needles thinking about seeing how the offense performs with that new paint job tonight.
I must have missed some pages at some point. What is the new paint job that's being referred to?


Batters eye was extended in both directions to make it wider. That and we reset the password to visiting pitchcom
I figured that's what it was.

Hopefully they put the password to something good, like 80085 [/90s Calculator]

100%. Literally watching an AL ROY award be stolen from him with his lack of PT.

Just had this conversation yesterday. We have ripped the award right out of his hands. Its shameful, pathetic, unforgivable and disgusting

Yeah I'm gonna bet that the lack of paint wasn't the problem and the extra 2 ft of green paint added isn't gonna make us mash at home.

But he'll thank Dusty later for it! It reminds of Judge Smails: "I've sentenced boys younger than you to the gas chamber. Didn't wanna do it, but felt I owed it to them."

I'd love to see how Diaz hits lefties with the new batter's eye. Something tells me we won't find out anytime soon.

I don't really understand tucker at 5. Especially behind Abreu.

Theres nothing to understand. We have a manager with the same mental fortitude as the guy living at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave

That old fossil is going to go down swinging with what he thinks is the right move. Consistent to the very end.

I looked a few times and cannot see differences other than the pictures were taken at slightly different angles. What am I missing? What ad space got painted over?

The green strips to the right of the batters eye are longer now. The red bud strips are shorter.

Use the Budweiser logo on the bottom ad ribbon as reference. The banner to the left of it got painted.

The pictures aren't exactly from the same angle, which doesn't help.

At least Chas is batting 6th but Abreu cleanup is ridiculous and the only reason is "must split lefties" even if they destroy lefties.

Oh well, I'm sure JV will enjoy the 1-2 runs he gets plus at least 1 stolen base and probably a pass ball for good measure.

I cannot wait to move on from Dusty Baker. Frustrating is an understatement. It would be one thing if the things he did made sense and I just disagreed with them. This has just been malpractice. And it's sad honestly. I've never seen anything like it.

I said this a few months ago. If I were the manager and I needed to throw games without making it obvious, I don't think I would have gone this far.
