PrintTrailing 5-3 and with Grienke at 86 pitches, naturally you bring in beloved former-Brave Horacio Ramirez.
All the teeth-gnashing we did when Moore pointlessly acquired him now seems justified. He hasn't stayed in the minors and he hasn't pitched in mop-up situations solamente either.

HOLY CRAP
Haven’t really paid attention to the game. Tuned in when it was 5-1 in the 6th. I had to put my kid to bed. Finally get back to the game and turn it on just as Olivo goes to an 0-2 count. Am I good luck charm or what??

Gee, it's so funny how the game thread
is full of people popping pills and drinking drano, but the overflow thread is all puppies and daisies.
Sarcasm™. It's the new gravy.
Nah, the home run was nice, but we're a long ways from winning.
We’ve also squandered a ton of scoring chances soooo

We're also down 2-1 on bad calls at first base.

I haven't been able to get on till now,
just wanted to go on the record that Gordo’s ab against Burres where he got the 2B was awesome, now that’s more like it! It’s nice to see fight out of the boys, even if we end up losing.

I hate joey G
I’d rather see DDJ in the lineup at center, every fucking day. And it’s not just because of tonight. I’m sick of him. If he can’t play good defense (and that’s his strong point), he shouldn’t be out there.

Are just full of stupid tonight. You know we drafted Soria from Houston?

I’m glad, ‘cause I always liked Tony Oliva. He coulda been a hall-of-famer if not for all the injuries. Glad we’ve given him a chance to play in his sixties.

Since LIME was the very epitome of a true Royal, when Jose breaks his immortal RBI record which has stood all these long, long weeks… we really have no choice.
