    Yuli would be a god-send at 1st base just for his defense and locker room vibes alone

    As soon as I saw that Yordan was scratched before the 1st game I knew 2 things….

    1. He would miss the entire series
    2. We would now lose the series

    The Texas little leaguers emulating their heroes. Role Models.

    On the bright side, it's kind of a well-timed/placed wake up call in a way:

    The Orioles are the single biggest threat to our EIGHTH ALCS IN A ROW...

    And we're a couple of easy hustle plays away from absolutely mopping the floor wit dey azz all year long.

    Id est, with just a little effort you got yourselves another pennant, fellers. It's right there.

    Exactly. Followed by both sprinting… and he’s still not likely to beat him.

    I’ll also give him a slight reprieve for his stamina given that he was at the end of his day.

    I'd love for you to say something like that to his face. Not from the interwebs. Not from the stands. Stand in front of the man and call him a b**** ass anything. Maybe try calling him a p****, too.

    I want Espada to get grilled about this lackadaisical defense and effort the last couple of weeks. But I know our dipshit reporters won't ask him.

    Yep. The division is a joke. Therefore, we are slightly above a joke.
