I like these uniforms. Trying to hide the gay rainbow under the arms like that.

Both teams wearing their best unis today

>>76050501
that's why it's funny

I want Salazar dead. This bum needs to be run out of Cleveland on a rail.

>>76050635
I have similar feelings toward 3rd/4th inning Bauer.

>>76050634

Kind of weird how he's been total shit since his arm was acting up last year. Almost like he's injured and refuses to get it treated....

>>76050846
This feels the most natural, my man. Gomesy is a beast...just had a couple bad years with injuries and poor luck.

Hammy got fooled badly on that hit.

My stream is so slow that I saw the Reddick double play right as I got the notification for the Gomes RBI

>>76050893
>valuable journal entry

This Zimmer kid is looking pretty good.

>>76050927
you mean you're attracted to him?

>>76050927
The knock on him is that he strikes out too much. And he's struck out in 7 of his 15 PAs thus far. Hopefully that improves.

Finally getting some clutch hits...Jesus, we're horrid in the clutch this year.

This is getting really old

>Kipnis

Zimmer looks like Tony Wonder from Arrested Development

>>76051035
To me he looks like a gay guy who likes to drink chardonnay while watching the wizard of oz every night, and uncontrollably cries when his boyfriends break up with him because he's too boring in bed.

Frankie has been...not great this May.

And here we go again.

Salazar is the three true outcomes king

BIG DADDY BELTRAN

Step 1 to fixing your almost year long slump as a pitcher is probably changing the fag hairstyle.

>>76051195
Just did the math: Salazar has given up a HR, BB, or gotten a K on 49% of the plate appearances this year.

I love Hammy's calls.

Apologize.

>>76051578
Lonnie, Yannie - same diff.

>>76051628
Does Yan get a lot of press back home?

>>76051670
The only media outlet that cares with baseball (regardless of brazilian success or not) is our ESPN, so nope.

>>76051670

Not really, he was injured for a long time last year, so nobody really talked about him. He only got huge press his first year because he was the first brazilian transvestite to play baseball or some shit, and he had a really good rookie year. He's been pretty mediocre besides being a great catcher ever since.

>>76051695
Our ESPN doesn't really care about baseball either since they laid off like half their staff that covered it.

>Hammy's been blasting the guys running the Astros scoreboard all weekend

And yet they keep screwing it up, apparently.

>>76051837
>ywn be a MLB scoreboard operator

>>76051867
Working at the ballpark must be awful pay but so fucking comfy.

Why is Kipnis so fucking consistent?

>>76051833
I don't listen to many podcasts or watch ESPN but it blows how much they don't give a shit about MLB aside from the most popular teams.

>>76051954
It's not just ESPN. Local sports talk will go straight from talking about the Cavs playoff run to Browns training camp. Nothing else.

>>76051833
Effectively Wild is the GOAT baseball podcast

>>76052128
I'll check it out. I'm orphan of sports media radio/podcast shows now because I'm tired of Le Batard calling me a racist.
>moments like this will never come back https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlHrzaIqXvE

>>76052033
Well I don't listen to them either but no surprise since one station is basically the Browns mouthpiece.

>>76051914
I talked with some Indians recruiters and they basically told me the only way a person can get a job are the cotton candy/hot dog walkers, or as an accountant.

>>76052245
I forgot which team's GM started as social media manager or something
>euphemism for the pleb who has to read letters to the team

jeez, astros, you're even letting encarnacion pump your assholes.

>>76052229
It makes me sad, actually. It seems to be feeding the narrative of Cleveland not being a baseball town.

cleveland just really isn't an indians town. We're just kind of sick of their constant disappointment.

The browns, however, are entertaining in a funny way at this point

>>76052462
That's what playoff blueballs will do to a city.

Danny pls

Whew, could've been worse

>Indians are ERA farming your team
Send help

>Ashy Asher Tolliver

Tolliver pitching more innings than Musgrove today.

It's nice to have good centerfield defense.

>>76055054
Musgrove a shit

But I'm impressed with Indians this series. Your team really took advantage of our weaknesses successfully.

Does Clevinger always pitch that good?

>>76055218
Hard to say. Not enough exposure in the bigs yet. Only giving up 2 walks yesterday was big.

Did you know Tony Sipp was first drafted into MLB by the Cleveland Indians?

Cool little bit of knowledge there

>>76055218
Clevinger isn't bad at all but he's never gone deep into games and struggles with walks. Yesterday was his career best start.

>>76055387
yes

>>76055387
he was a fairly gay reliever for us in the Acta days

>>76055396
>Yesterday was his career best
Pretty good desu

>>76055387
I did know that.

jeez, edwin has been on a hitting rampage lately, and his ba has gone UP to .208.

Damn he sucks.

>>76055715
Feast or famine.

>>76055892
if this was the wild he would have starved to death like a month ago

>>76055715
He's heating up, and even at Edwin's worst he was better than Napoli's September and postseason.

>>76055949

I dunno...i think he was just as bad or worse...

>>76056005
Then you don't remember how awful Napoli was by that point.

Edwin was still getting walks and hit some dingers. Napoli was only a windmill.

>the organ player hasn't given up hope
Love Hammy

ZMac so wanted that AB over with that he just grooved a pitch

Someone hold me...

shouldn't you guys have like a shooting star or something come out....instead of a train?

Okay this is stupid.

Marwin Gonzalez is full of surprises sometimes

>>76056286
Train is the seal of Houston but yea a Star would be wicked.

>>76056326
Minute Maid Park is built into a train station isn't it?

>>76056286
I would figure they'd have a miniature gay pride parade come out dancing, waving the rainbow flag, fellating hot dogs, etc.

>>76056286
>>76056345
Yeah, it was built on the site of an old train station. That's also the reasoning behind the 2000's color scheme.

WINDIANS

GG Stros and good luck with your division

Giving up 3 in the 9th is never a good look, but I'm glad McCallister finished it out.

FINALLY!

Dodged a fucking bullet at the end there...

Good series, 'Stros. Hope to see you in the postseason.

>>76056415
very interesting. Weird. And not really interesting at all, but I have to say something nice now.

Getting really sick of these Aoki strikeouts in clutch situations.

GG Indians, hope we don't have to face y'all in the postseason.

wew

gg stros

>>76056433

That was the b-team bullpen, it don't matter.

>>76056474
That would be game over, man

Unless we trade for some decent starting pitchers.
