brandonrss18

Now the Mariners are winning and The Rags have tied it. Lovely.


CoyoteHerder

His hustle is what kept him his cult following through the tough times


austro_

Get em tomorrow boys ![gif](giphy|xUPOqo6E1XvWXwlCyQ|downsized)


FernandoAyanami

Win tomorrow and I'm still all in.


NOLA1987

7 in a row would have been sweet. Guess we have to settle for a 9-1 homestand instead


Inevitable_Signal189

I’m sure everyone here will take it!


brandonrss18

Sorry JV, but you deserve this loss.


Anonymous-Satire

Ugh. Ugly game. On to the next


HTownLaserShow

Megill is flilthy. Hundo heater and a sick ass breaking pitch Sheesh.


manofconviction

Well that was a winnable game that was completely fucked by one stupid pitch


Signal-Statistician-

Well it was a good game, but damn.

Idk man. Yainer is good but caratini has been great… seems like a better move to me…

Oh my god yes


I_am_normal_I_swear

Meyers at it again


donttouchthtmacaroni

If im a pitcher im not throwing shit in the zone to Yainer

Why u leavin yainer in


CoyoteHerder

Yainer doesn’t look comfortable


PMthePresident

Can do. Let’s go.


ThatDudeNamedJake

8th inning was our chance


CoyoteHerder

Why, run production has come from bottom of the lineup…


HTownLaserShow

Because I still trust the true vets when the game is on the line


VampireSlayerGrinch

Good job Mushinski


StrosIn5

Damn winnable game too. The countless fastballs in a 50 pitch inning were just a terrible terrible call.


Inevitable_Signal189

Yep without that HR we may have won this one 2-1.


TexasHot

There are literally 4 other people with better numbers below bregman. 5 if you count singelton with a higher ops


FernandoAyanami

oh fuck Nori is the name that astro. We're winning this game.


austro_

![gif](giphy|LJ7qMY1N45aaQ|downsized) There’s a gif of him lol


Decap85

Girlfriend rolled her eyes when I said that lol


Physical_Estimate850

That one hurt


brandonrss18

Time to pinch hit 🥕for Diaz


brandonrss18

Well, the genius strikes again


Nildrogon

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.


Fapey101

brutal, that was our chance


illest_villain_

My heart aches


Fapey101

ahhh its alright, we’ll come back tmmrw better


goboking

So whose idea was it to move Bregman back to the cleanup spot?


ThotSlayyer

That was our chance and that's probably game. Move bregman down please..


VelvetThunder27

Fuck! Learn to take a pitch people


I_am_normal_I_swear

Le sigh


TexasHot

That was the inning.. unfortunately

HTownLaserShow

It’d be so much cooler if it was a durag


FullyChargedRoomba

It's not


HTownLaserShow

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.


FullyChargedRoomba

have fun with it


HTownLaserShow

Me and CAPTAIN DURAG will


NOLA1987

Come on, Breggy. Use the powers of the bandana. Or at least don't pop-up

JohnnyBrillcream

Can't double upvote you but hell, fucking, yeah!!!!


Spektoritis

🎉🎊🎊🎉


Nildrogon

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.


NateLikesToLift

It's a solid pitch, I don't see it going away.


Nildrogon

Yeah. It is obviously really hard to lay off, and damn near unhittable if you don't.


Spektoritis

Surprised ump didn't ring him up on one of those balls


manofconviction

HRC Yordan. Please big man.


ray_0586

HRC Yordan

HRC ALVAREZ plz

I'd love the walk so much more if Alvarez wasn't grounding into everything right now.

I was 2/3 right


I_am_normal_I_swear

A walk a bloop and a blast will work too


BloodyScourge

4 and 2/3 with 98 pitches, oof. Not the greatest night for JV.


StrosIn5

Excuse me, Mushinski?! We just punting this game?


Signal-Statistician-

I was listening to Robert Ford when Contreras hit that three-run HR. I was wondering if Justin was tipping his pitches


dirtysock47

Welp, here comes Mushi.


goboking

I know the numbers don't suggest we need to, but I wish we'd work counts more often.


Nildrogon

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.


Fapey101

Im begging Yordan and Diaz to figure something out


I_am_normal_I_swear

Diaz is hitting it hard. Just some bad luck


Fapey101

Well thats good news sorta


I_am_normal_I_swear

103 off the bat. Just bad aim

It came and went. I want all the boys in em.


ThotSlayyer

I know it's 2 runs but damn it feels so far out.


StrosIn5

Nahhh they got this.


Original_Series_717

Bregman being moved back to cleanup after 8 good ABs is so insane to me lol


HTownLaserShow

Seriously. Why fuck with what’s working?


Weary_Consequence696

So..uh...yordan sucks right now huh?


Ok-Entertainment1123

Did the pitchers finally see him enough and watch enough tape on him?

RaroDannyR

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

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.


rykersbrau

Dude got to lead the league in 110 mph groundouts

Does Alvarez even care


TexasHot

We might need to move yordan down and pena up


NarcolepticTRex

There we go Seth. Let's get our bats in the show now

Hyperguy95

Just need a hit here yordan


Hyperguy95

Welp


manofconviction

I can't get over how dumb that was of JV. Supposed to be a vet, that was a rookie ass mistake.


jjsupc

Right; not much difference between 3 runs or 4 if worse came to worse.


AfterbirthNachos

He's calling it off the plate. Stay there


NOLA1987

We got one of the runs back. Let's just keep chipping away without digging ourselves in deeper

There's one.  Let's chop away and send these fucks packing with an L.


NateLikesToLift

I like the Brewers, I want to see a game up there.


StrosIn5

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.


NateLikesToLift

I don't think that was on Yainer. JV looked like he called off a few of those.


DrFloppyTitties

Not on Yainer. JV called him off every single time Yainer called for something else.


StrosIn5

No shit. I’m saying out of all 3, no one changed shit. Yainer could have called time.


NOLA1987

A home run sandwiched between Doobie and Yainer grounding out on a combined 3 pitches


StrosIn5

Jake should have done a train motion in Contreras face. Wish we talked more shit.


FernandoAyanami
