I thought Soler was coming back this weekend

 

[Garmel]

I thought Soler was coming back this weekend

They said he won't play this weekend.

Just want to bring a bit of positivity here.

If you told me before the season that we wouldn't have a basically any season from, Acuna and basically no season from Spencer Strider, that Olson and Riley would be Dog****, we'd lose Albies Michael harris, and Murphy, for a long tiem, we'd be in the running for the playoffs I wouldn't believe you.

Let's keep battlin and get into the playoffs and get ****ing hot. Imagine if we have a healthy team as much as possible in the post season, anything can happen.

Appreciate the optimism, but we have to be able to beat up on teams like the Angels.

Ozuna came thru with runners on in the 1st... season on track now

Include the Rockies on that list.

 

[msstate7]

Score a crap load braves... I'd love to pull sale sorta early with a big lead

 

[buck75]

Merrifield is still fast at age 35

 

[Hulavol]

Merrifield has some wheeels

 

[Hulavol]

He could be a very valuable piece in playoff ball pinch running when Ozzie gets back too….

 

[USMA76]

Merrifield has some wheeels

True but, what's the old saying, you can't steal first?

 

[Hulavol]

Good point

 

[Hulavol]

Damn - that was dangerous - glad that worked out! Nice play - now get a double play and lets get back to work

 

[Hulavol]

The K works too.

 

[buck75]

When did Kenny Loggins start playing 2B for the Angels? Doesn’t look like much of a hitter.

 

[Hulavol]

Damn this ump stinks

 

[mfree80]

First three in the order remembered to bring bats. The rest, not so much.

 

[Hulavol]

No kidding.
