re: DAT 8/22-23: Off Day Discussion, Thermopylae edition

Rangers up 4-0 top of the 5th with bases loaded and 1 out.

I’m all for an umpire allowing a player to bitch a little and then get over it. But when you turn around and poke him in the chest as you’re bitching at him or you come back to the box and bang your bat down on the plate like Gordon did and then get in his face you have taken it too far. If the mlb had any nuts whatsoever they’d suspend those guys a game anyway particularly for the fact that neither guy was right about their grievance.

Wish yuli would have gotten a better read and gotten to third on that hit.

Nacho is on fricking fire with the bat. Thank God too, since we now have zero reason to start Stassi's poo arse.

After Machete got comfortable with the staff his bat has been pretty solid.

"You know what we haven't done in ages? Hit the ball the other way."

"Ya think maybe we won't hit into 95868854 double plays?"

"I dunno. Let's give it a shot, for shits and giggles."

Yuli is drunk. Freezes forever at second on the ground ball to the right side, now crosses the plate and turns around to put up a stop sign to Reddick at third.
