Don't understand why Schneider didn't have Pearson for the 9th, he threw only 7 or 8 pitches for a 1-2-3 8th inning.
Should have saved Garcia's arm for tomorrow.
Now Pearson's arm is still available tomorrow after looking great today.

I’m still in LA and I couldn’t watch today’s game……damn it.

Go Dodgers Go! Lol hey, on the bright side I’m going to watch the Dodgers play Oakland on Thursday. Yawn. I’m joking, the tickets are a gift and I appreciate it..

Love seeing the Kirky-Vladdy HR dance!

Stupidest shit in sports. They look like a couple of ass clowns. I dream of the day when baseball players become pro's again and cut out the stupid shit they do. I can't even stand watching vlad hit an HR anymore. He does 100 different dumb ass things when rounding the bases because he's a media whore and wants more attention. Just fucking round the bases like a normal person. I'm at the point where I hope they trade him.

This exactly how the basses should be rounded. I don't know why this is so difficult for Vlad.

I guess he's a victim of this generation's desperation for attention seeking with how many likes they get on instagram and views on youtube. I'm not sure if we give all the blame to the Kardashians, but they were definitely a part of the early trailblazers in this attention seeking generation. I just didn't think it would trickle into pro baseball players rounding the basses after hitting an HR.

Would you prefer a Ty Cobb or even a Lenny Dykstra?

I noticed something I previously hadn't paid attention to - most players don't wear the cheek guard helmet. The Taylor Ford beaning would have been far less severe had he worn one.

I prefer them round the bases like a normal fucking person. It's not that hard. There's no need to point your finger into the outfield at 2nd (don't even know who he's supposed to be pointing to), play hop scotch between 2nd and 3rd (or whatever dumb stutter step is supposed to be) then give the shush sign at third (why your shushing in your own stadium is beyond me), and all the dumb ass shit he does when finally gets to the plate.

See The Oracle's post of Mantle rounding the bases.

On May 30 the Jays were 11 games behind Tampa. That's 2 months ago.

Jays are currently 3 behind Tampa. 2 months left in the season.

That's a very anal response bbl, we're talking about grown men playing a kids game. I couldn't care less what Vlady does on the base-path as long as he's mashing. Do you also have a problem with this?

No, it was a huge moment, and I don't even think he was aware just how much he flipped the bat and punked off Sam Dyson. Especially with everything that went on that inning and the rivalry between the two teams.


I just think Vlad needs to grow up, and stop seeking for attention.


Check out Whit Merrifield's reaction knowing Vlag is coming with the ice bath. I saw this live, and I can tell you this is not being taken out of context. You could tell Whit was annoyed by it.

I agree that Vlady needs to grow up, but also Whit Merrifield has one of the worst sucky faces in all of baseball. Have you seen his sucky face and stare down after he gets brushed off the plate? I’m surprised more pitchers don’t come at him.

I put his sucky face right up there with Manny Machado….. my man Rocket Roger would’ve cracked his ribs and busted him inside with that sucky face. (OK I need to calm down over here). 😬

I hate AppleTV games. I do not have an Apple device so I miss those games. I used to be able to login with my old iPod credentials but that work around has been shut down.
I had the same dilemma but I found a site where you could stream it online

lol these Romano lovers are funny.

A great closer should have the confidence of the manager to use as his secret weapon to get you out of a jam. Romano doesn’t get us out of jams. He is only shown to be good in a clean ninth. With RISP or in a tie game, this man stinks. Predictable. Hitters are squaring up. Why exactly? I couldn’t tell you. I also couldn’t tell you who they should use instead. He’s not a superhero, and that’s for damn sure. I think we all want our closer to be a superhero. His paper looks good with his clean ninth in a save opportunity, and that’s about it. If Romano had the same role as a Tim Mayza…. I bet you he wouldn’t last one month in the big leagues. He’s being babied in his closer role with horseshoes up his ass.


Blows game after game….and most likely load after load with his 70s porn star haircut lmao.

He got the job cause everyone loves the velo to end the game.
He doesnt have much when it comes to secondary......aside from a slider that is probably average.
If going by k/9 ; I'd go with Richards to close it. But chicks dig the velo.

Geritt Cole is number one on the sucky face list.
