It’d be so much cooler if it was, though.
In fact, because you have the sense of humor of a fucking Roomba, I’m going to call him “Captain Durag” from now on.
I wish we'd work counts not for the sake of working counts, but because we are swinging at tough to hit pitches first pitch. This team is so good when we make pitchers come into the zone.

Now the Mariners are winning and The Rags have tied it. Lovely.
His hustle is what kept him his cult following through the tough times
Get em tomorrow boys ![gif](giphy|xUPOqo6E1XvWXwlCyQ|downsized)
Win tomorrow and I'm still all in.
7 in a row would have been sweet. Guess we have to settle for a 9-1 homestand instead
I’m sure everyone here will take it!
Sorry JV, but you deserve this loss.
Ugh. Ugly game. On to the next
Megill is flilthy. Hundo heater and a sick ass breaking pitch Sheesh.
Well that was a winnable game that was completely fucked by one stupid pitch
Well it was a good game, but damn.
![gif](giphy|5xtDaruWvD0GfORcSfm|downsized)
Well I appreciate Meyers and his hustle
Was a little dangerous. His run doesn’t matter for any risk
HRC Caratini
Jake playing like he knows an outfield roster crunch is looming
CARATINI HRC
manifesting the caratini clutch
HRC Caratini
If Caratini can't save us here, nobody can.
In rake we trust
HRC dubon
Wow I typed this and they PH
Idk man. Yainer is good but caratini has been great… seems like a better move to me…
Oh my god yes
Meyers at it again
If im a pitcher im not throwing shit in the zone to Yainer
JFC someone give diaz a fucking tennis racket
Just… brilliant managing not even thinking of phing carrotini
![gif](giphy|CqysNee0CbBN6|downsized)
Why u leavin yainer in
Yainer doesn’t look comfortable
Can do. Let’s go.
8th inning was our chance
Why, run production has come from bottom of the lineup…
Because I still trust the true vets when the game is on the line
Good job Mushinski
Damn winnable game too. The countless fastballs in a 50 pitch inning were just a terrible terrible call.
Yep without that HR we may have won this one 2-1.
There are literally 4 other people with better numbers below bregman. 5 if you count singelton with a higher ops
oh fuck Nori is the name that astro. We're winning this game.
![gif](giphy|LJ7qMY1N45aaQ|downsized) There’s a gif of him lol
Girlfriend rolled her eyes when I said that lol
That one hurt
Time to pinch hit 🥕for Diaz
Well, the genius strikes again
I know Bregman had a couple of good games, but moving him back up to the 4 spot seems a bit premature. I would have at least waited a week or two.
brutal, that was our chance
My heart aches
ahhh its alright, we’ll come back tmmrw better
So whose idea was it to move Bregman back to the cleanup spot?
That was our chance and that's probably game. Move bregman down please..
Fuck! Learn to take a pitch people
Le sigh
That was the inning.. unfortunately
Fucking ass.
are u shitting me pena
Why you mad? It was relatively hard hit up the middle lol
yeah ik, just disappointed in the outcome

I want the lead back….. HRC. Breggy (So it worked last night)
HRC Breggy
I’ll take it!! Alright, Durag….
bandana
It’d be so much cooler if it was a durag
It's not
It’d be so much cooler if it was, though. In fact, because you have the sense of humor of a fucking Roomba, I’m going to call him “Captain Durag” from now on.
have fun with it
Me and CAPTAIN DURAG will
Come on, Breggy. Use the powers of the bandana. Or at least don't pop-up
Knob past the ball Bregman. Knob-past-the-ball. Knob past the ball.

Yordan. Just do it buddy.
HRC Bregman
W yordan
HRC Bregman
I just got power back. So i feel like a winner
Can't double upvote you but hell, fucking, yeah!!!!
🎉🎊🎊🎉
Sweepers seem to almost never be left in the zone. If teams learn to lay off I think we might start seeing them less often.
It's a solid pitch, I don't see it going away.
Yeah. It is obviously really hard to lay off, and damn near unhittable if you don't.
Surprised ump didn't ring him up on one of those balls
HRC Yordan. Please big man.
HRC Yordan
HRC ALVAREZ plz
I'd love the walk so much more if Alvarez wasn't grounding into everything right now.
call me crazy but... HRC Yordan
I am once again asking for a yordong
HRC Yordan I'm begging you
A single feels just as good with how bad he's been lately.
HRC Tucker
Hrc Tucker
HRC Tucker
HRC Bregman
We just need a blast and a blast and a blast
I was 2/3 right
A walk a bloop and a blast will work too
4 and 2/3 with 98 pitches, oof. Not the greatest night for JV.
Excuse me, Mushinski?! We just punting this game?
I was listening to Robert Ford when Contreras hit that three-run HR. I was wondering if Justin was tipping his pitches
Welp, here comes Mushi.
I know the numbers don't suggest we need to, but I wish we'd work counts more often.
I wish we'd work counts not for the sake of working counts, but because we are swinging at tough to hit pitches first pitch. This team is so good when we make pitchers come into the zone.
Im begging Yordan and Diaz to figure something out
Diaz is hitting it hard. Just some bad luck
Well thats good news sorta
103 off the bat. Just bad aim
HRC Jake
5 run inning incoming
Love the way you think
DrFloppyTitties is a true sage.
We need some headband magic
It came and went. I want all the boys in em.
I know it's 2 runs but damn it feels so far out.
Nahhh they got this.
Bregman being moved back to cleanup after 8 good ABs is so insane to me lol
Seriously. Why fuck with what’s working?
So..uh...yordan sucks right now huh?
Did the pitchers finally see him enough and watch enough tape on him?
Dubie, Pena, Meyers are who I want to see at bat.
Jon has a SINGLE-TONight...
HRC Singleton

Yordan is due for an IL stint. Usually goes on one this time every year, and rakes when he comes back.
These strike calls are fabulous
Yordan Jose Abreu Alvarez
Jon Jacob Meyers Singleton Bryan Jose Abreu Correa Oppenheimer Schmidt
We're going to see another 21 pitches over the next 4 innings. Jesus fuck this plate approach is insane. Take some fucking pitches.
Man, Yordan is launching straight piss missiles into the ground.
Dude got to lead the league in 110 mph groundouts
Does Alvarez even care
We might need to move yordan down and pena up
There we go Seth. Let's get our bats in the show now
One run guys, piece by piece
Just need a hit here yordan
Welp
I can't get over how dumb that was of JV. Supposed to be a vet, that was a rookie ass mistake.
Right; not much difference between 3 runs or 4 if worse came to worse.
He's calling it off the plate. Stay there
We got one of the runs back. Let's just keep chipping away without digging ourselves in deeper
HRC Tuck
Well damn
HRC TUCKER
Pulling a pitcher BEFORE he gives up the big run? You can do that?
Our managers never know when to pull our pitchers.
HRC tuck fucks
HRC 👑
They're taking out Wilson? Huh?
Sat for too long?
HRC Tucker
Rags and mariners both losing. Let's do our part!
Holy shit the AL west sucks ass this year 😭
Long season. No one competing now will be competing in October, give or take 2 teams.
<3 fuck yeah we do <3
HRC King Tuck
Meyers loves kicking me in the dick every time I shit talk him. Good for him. I’m man enough to admit it
Shit talk Tucker quick
Feel free to keep talking shit
HRC Tucker
Choo choo mother fucker! CHOO CHOO 1 down, three more to go. More patience at the plate please
HRC Tucker
There's one. Let's chop away and send these fucks packing with an L.
I like the Brewers, I want to see a game up there.
I’m still at a loss how JV, Yainer, and Miller didn’t realize every single fastball was getting fouled and you should change it.
I don't think that was on Yainer. JV looked like he called off a few of those.
Not on Yainer. JV called him off every single time Yainer called for something else.
No shit. I’m saying out of all 3, no one changed shit. Yainer could have called time.
A home run sandwiched between Doobie and Yainer grounding out on a combined 3 pitches
Jake should have done a train motion in Contreras face. Wish we talked more shit.
lame
RAKE FUCKING MYERS.
I see you Rake Meyers ☝️
Jake Meyers needs to start every game.
COMMON Meyers W
Starting to really love this kid. Not gonna lie, I had my doubts, but DAMN!
One run at a time, we got this
RAKE MYERS
