    I totally agree with ya when you put it that way. And they still owe us for getting Castro for basically nothing.

    Yeah bottom line i dont trust ny. How many trades have they made over the past 2 decades where they didn't make out better? Again i dont put much effort into following them or the al in general but it seems every trade they make works hugely in their favor.

    I don't trust NY either, but what trumps that is how much I DO trust Theo and Jed. If they make a trade of any sort, I will agree with it.

    Our bullpen is hot vomit in a garbage bag.

    Why is there a guy older than me on the mound trying to hold 7th inning leads?
    For fuck's sake you'd think the bullpen could just have ONE night where they don't allow any runs or get into big jams every single inning?

    Truth. No way Theo is that stupid. Not objected to trading Schwarber but you better get a bigger pull than 1 reliever for him. Yanks think with their short RF he could hit 50 hrs.

    Theo said Schwarber will be on opening day roster next year.

    The Mets teed off on hammel last night. First time all year they got pounded. They need to get it out of their system now before the all star break.

    Arrieta needs to be a god damn ace today and eat up some innings. This 5 inning bull shit needs to stop today.

    Agreed. I worry that 2nd half Hammel is here.

    I think he (Jake) fell too much in love with Jake Arrieta. Started the season well, then got talking about no hometown discount. Wanting to be paid like the best. His mojo is seemingly lost. I hope like hell that he can find it again
    ..soon.

    Mr. Arrieta

    How much longer until his arm falls off?
    Or will he again turn in to Mr. Dominating?

    We will soon find out.

    Cards had a 5 game losing streak. They sweep us. Mets had a 4 game losing streak. They're gonna sweep us. Starting pitchers can't get past 5 innings without getting to 100 pitches. The bullpen fucking blows ass and Theo says it isn't a concern.

    While I'm at, fuck Lebron and Cleveland sympathizers.

    It's July 3rd

    Reality is that Heyward will be lucky to hit .250 this year. I can see him finishing at .210.

    How much did we pay him?
