Federoroshslfhi cleared waivers, went to Fresno. I find it odd we’re only rolling with 36 on the 40 man.

Guess it allows us to add Tucker/Whitley easily

Check out Yulis twitter. The team sang him happy birthday and gave him a cake that said "Happy 40th birthday." then shoved his face in the cake.

40? Probably not far from the truth.

Remember there was a little bit of scuttlebutt about us signing Jay Bruce in the off season? Thanks was a non move that worked out for us.

.222/.300 3HR 15 RBI

We have so many pitchers doing impressive stuff in the minors it’s hard to keep track of them all.

Is Bannister the biggest fricking douchebag in baseball? He acts like a 12 year old girl whining absolutely nonstop. How does this assclown have a job?


You can’t be serious. Banister has every right to be pissed off. The umps missed the call, which a balk is non-reviewable, Hinch went out and complained and they reversed the call which is not supposed to happen.

It was a balk, you can’t argue that, but the way it was handled is absolute bull shite. A manager should not be allowed to essentially change a missed call just because an ump missed it in real time. It’s the equivalent of a manager arguing a ball/strike call and then an ump changing the call afterwards. A complete farce of umpiring.

I don’t blame Hinch for arguing he call, I would have too. But the umps were a joke in that moment.

Tucker is 3-3 with a homer, double, single and walk.

AJ Reed is 2-4 with 2HR and 6RBI

On the year Reed is hitting .276 with an OBP near .390. 15HR 54RBI 38 walks 51 strikeouts.


Interesting that he's never been given another look outside of the dreadful but limited ML stint. Is it his inability to slim down or a lack of faith due to the hole in his uppercut swing.

Reed is no longer a prospect. Forget his name.

Says the guy that said Derek Fisher was a terrible draft pick and started threads that Luhnow is a terrible GM for picking him and should be fired for doing it.

Well It's just a matter of time before he is. Nobody knows the time or the day.

I went to Port A yesterday, clicked preset #1 and sure enough, KLVI was booming in like a local, even though the tower was 246 miles away.

KLVI truly is the blowtorch of SE Texas.

One of the umpires gave an explanation yesterday, and it wasn't an awful one.

Said they had to confer to see if any of them had been told to expect him to quick pitch. If they had, then that wouldn't have been a balk. Was watching MLB Network during/after the game.

Should still have called it of course

Why wouldn't it have been a balk if they'd been told to watch for it? Foreknowledge doesn't change action.
