i think the point is that the media ain't your buddies neither. he doesn't need to go telling reporters whether he liked or didn't like personnel and roster decisions.
-
doesn't matter who you are - this is the time to earn more playing time. just look at tony kemp.

so we're 69-41.
last year after 110 games we were 70-40 (august 5th).
we then went 9-14 before a 7 game winning streak, taking us to the sept series in oakland. i was in vegas so i assume those games just never took place.
we're 8.5 up on cleveland.
get healthy, win the division, finish ahead of the tribe.

take the bitter with the better.

holy shit. i almost made a specific remark about stassi hitting 6th and how wrong that seemed.
mariners should be feeling shitty about their performance this series.
-
nice to get that 3 run lead back.
let's play add on.

i don't know where everybody plays, but session-wise, it's really a luxury to be in a vegas casino(s) with a weekend's worth of time. being forced to one table on a riverboat situation with limited spots forcing you to play through the cold streaks or risk losing your spot is not ideal.

holy shit with that lineup. i never thought i'd say this, but why isn't tyler white playing? he's a righty, we're facing a lefty, and he's been better than just about anyone the last few games.
lineup construction is probably overrated, but gattis is your prototypical old school cleanup man. hit him 4th, and keep reddick 2nd. he's actually impressed me vs lefties (wasn't last night vs a lefty?).
we really fought hard and grinded at bats last night for the first time in a while. if we can do that again today and somehow win the series, it'll be a bloody miracle.

make that 6^
i get that it's "insulting" to kelley, but in that situation, you groove fastballs and get the f outta there. you have a built in excuse for giving up a run or two (or 3) if it should happen, which sucks for your personal stats, but who gives a shit. i don't have a bullpen list in front of me, but i would assume some long reliever who's typically in when you're losing is the guy who should've pitched the 8th/9th, since roark went 7.
kelley hadn't pitched in 4 days and only twice in the last 10 days, so maybe get the fuck over it and do your job. if you give up a homer, laugh it off. your team won. no reason to pitch a position player unless you pulled your starter super early.

i was just watching the history of comedy on cnn, and this week's was about sketch and improv, and there were a couple short clips from mr show, which always reminds me to go watch the audition. i watch it about once a year and i laugh at the same parts every single time.

yeah, i saw "day-to-day" from earlier this morning. if that already turned into a dl stint, that's bad.

Shawn Kelley - R - Nationals
Nationals GM Mike Rizzo confirmed Wednesday morning that Shawn Kelley was designated for assignment for being "disrespectful to the organization."
Kelley slammed his glove down in frustration and stared into the Nationals' dugout after giving up a three-run homer in the ninth inning of Tuesday night's 25-4 blowout win over the Mets. The 34-year-old right-hander apparently had a problem with being brought into such a lopsided game. "You’re either in or you’re in the way," said Rizzo. "He was in the way." Kelley posted a 3.34 ERA, 0.96 WHIP, and 32/5 K/BB ratio in 32 1/3 total innings this season with Washington and should quickly find a new place to pitch.
sounds like everything is locking in for the deep playoff run.

yuli has been awful as of late. that said, i bet there's lots of fun to be had looking at some of our hitters last 30-40 ab. it's been a true team effort since before the break.
-
put him in left, kemp at 2nd, white can sit while marwin/yuli/bregman play the rest of the infield.
-
so tucker isn't even playing vs righties now? should we just send him down?
-
the last one is pretty good, and definitely overlaps into this one. go ahead and see it if you can.

i like joe. midwest dude, seemed good for becca. i was pretty surprised he didn't make it past week 1. guess i'm not alone since he has a fan following now.
has someone who received zero roses ever made it to the big chair with chris harrison and onto bip? doesn't seem likely.

axford to lad.

Has this deadline been a lot more active than the past couple of years? No real blockbusters outside of Manny but a shitton of smaller moves.
hand, britton, and osuna were pretty big moves, as far as talented closers go.
archer is pretty damn big.

holy shit that's a haul.

this thought might be more of an "mlb thread" post, but in all the talk about the nats, letting harper walk, etc, it got me thinking. we had three straight number 1 picks, and all three times, articles stated there wasn't a clear cut #1 type guy available, and how the astros didn't get lucky how washington got, having generational talents like harper and strasberg available to them.
obviously those picks were a mixed bag (correa, appel, aiken). but considering we turned aiken into bregman, well, yeah.
meanwhile, we won a world series, and the nats (still with both on their team) can't win a playoff series.

i've said it before, but i don't think turner factors into the dodgers long term plans.

i do too. and i love dk, have for a long time. i just don't see the need to feed quotes to reporters. maybe he's just voicing his opinions, or maybe this is his way of sending a message to the front office. why take that risk?
internal shit should stay internal.
or you could be like jake - handle your shit like a man on the field. he wasn't pouting, he was homering. maybe he said something to hinch or luhnow, but we'll never know.
