I used to like Morse when he was a skinny shortstop for the M's who got popped for Roids back in the day.

Dude is huge now

I want a gif of those Oakland fans going nuts when Balfour came in.

[Sinner]

Come on now... 

 

[checks grossman]

 

 Is this guy forreal?

Don't know what to expect from Joe Saunders tonight, and not feeling too good about it either.

 

[checks grossman]

*Dave Sims voice * Oh, brother...

Robert Andino starting in place of Ack tonight and Jason Bay starts in place of Saunders.

 

[elpablo21]

So much for hoping for Ack and Saunders to get it going tonight

Guess we'll see how this RH heavy lineup does.

 

[elpablo21]

Guti!

Edit: Morse..again

 

[checks grossman]

 MIKE MFING MORSE!!

 

[DsLee]

I can get used to this...
JACK Z KNOWS

Edit: Angels lose FTW

 

[651akathepaul]

Missed it.

 

[checks grossman]

Guti with the lead off HR, then Morse drives one to CF

Saunders is looking shook out there he got bailed out by some good defense.

 

[checks grossman]

God damn, Andino is trash.

 

[651akathepaul]

Is Paxson ready?

 

[checks grossman]

This is ******** I seen this coming a mile away. Get him out of the game, he's done.

 

[elpablo21]

I'll be surprised if OAK doesnt take the lead this inning.

Feels like they should be up by a few already

 

[651akathepaul]

M's probably will try and squeeze another inning out of Saunders. Good thing no deficit is too big these days.

 

[checks grossman]

Im trying to figure out how he made the roster after the spring he just had. And to be the #3 starter at that? He's pitching tonight like he has all spring training so not too sure what they see there.

 

[651akathepaul]

I see what you mean. Veterans are a different bunch though. They're not always out to prove anything, but rather work on certain things in certain outings. It's usually when the regular season starts when they try and bring it all together.

Him being number 3 means little at this point. Managers always try and mix and match and Wedge probably wanted to get their only starting lefty in the middle of the rotation to break up the monotony.

Whatever. He probably won't last long at this rate.

 

[elpablo21]

Loe was doing well

and then the **** hit the fan

 

[DsLee]

Disappointed things didn't end well after the amazing start but it's all good.

Good thing we have an early game tomorow, guess I'll be distracted at work..

 

[Sinner]

 

[elpablo21]

Saunders RF

Gutierrez CF

Ibanez DH

Morse LF

Smoak 1B

Seager 3B

Ackley 2B

Shoppach C

Andino SS

Maurer P

Saunders said the balls were slippery and hard to grip, that was his downfall last night

You already know

Anyone else think Wedge is doing the most with the lineup shuffling? We're 3 games into the regular season and have had 3 different lineups - todays the 4th. No reason Morales shouldn't be in the lineup

 

[elpablo21]

I remember he called people "yahoos" for questioning all his lineup shifting last year

He's doing too much imo but what do I know. Ima yahoo.
