i haven't read through the other threads on this..

but I just read the MLB.com article on mora clearing the air with Trembley.. with Mora’s strange analogies and figures of speech. Then I started thinking about Trembley’s odd analogies and figures of speech.

Must have been a hell of an interestin conversation. Kind of like when the crawfish is out of the barn, ya know? Reminds me of the story of a guy I know from back in my days in double A. He’d always swing first and leave the talkin for the … growing fields are pretty nice, y’know?

I know that some people hate it when you tip your cap to the other pitcher, but Justin Verlander is fucking good. Would you have felt better if they’d spread out the five runs? Because 5 runs off of Verlander is pretty good.

Tillman is learning on the job

I’d rather watch him pitch this game again then have to see Rich Hill ever again.

I mean, I get that it's frustrating

I hope you don’t think we’re ganging up on you. To me it just looks like we’re seeing growing pains of a team that’s capable of winning but can’t put it together yet. That’s much easier for me to watch that what was going on prior.

I don't

But to me its the worst loss of the second half. I just HATE the feeling of having a lead that you know is not going to last and then it doesn’t. Also, I’d rather be blown out than lose in the last second. So when I got both in the same game, I’m not going to be happy.

Not even the worst in the past week

I nominate Guts’ last start.

Is Duck still in here?

If so, I got the post game.

That didn't hurt

Kind of surprising to see the ball sail over the wall and feel absolutely nothing. Oh well, I guess it’s better than the alternative.

12 years of this’ll do that. I’m usually just numb by the all-star break.

I wonder if I can bill Jeff Lurie and Peter Angelos for the years of therapy their teams are going to put me through.
