So Vargas really helped today
That is, +38.8 is pretty good
I'm pretty sure if you look close, Vargas is driving the Steam Roller.
You would think we'd juggle the rotation a bit so that Vargas can pitch at Safeco

where our defense and park factors make him appear to a good pitcher.

His road numbers are hideous

THAT'S RACIST!
So I like Saunders quite a bit, but I really miss Langerhans.
Yeah, I too like Saunders, but I want him to hit a HR or 2 soon.
He should have one

>:(

What do you mean?

I thought he had one. It popped out of the fielder’s gl…. oh wait that was Kendry.

Get fucked you fuck

Ain't you sweet?
Aren't...
Don't be a cock.
Someone with "kinda" in his signature has no room to correct others on grammar.
Well this backfired
We don't really know you but we all know and love RC.

If this was a joke, it’s a bad idea to make such jokes in this sort of context. If it wasn’t a joke, this level of grammar Nazi-ism is beyond annoying.

I like the equilibrium on this one

Good work Poochie

Well.....at least Beltre had a good night....
I think the number of comments in the game thread sums up this series.
Grass Creek is OURSSSSSSSS!
Losing to Bruce Chen is about as cool as pooping yourself
Dude, losing to Bruce Chen isn't cool at all.
If pooping your pants is cool, consider me Miles Davis!
George Brett must lose to Bruce Chen a lot.
Can someone tell me why Vargas started sucking so much?

He seemed servicable when he first filled in for the rotation. But then he was pushed out and since coming back I think he’s sucked.

This is my impression or am I just statistically challenged?

He sucks. Has and probably will.

He throws a shitty fastball 70% of the time. Doesn’t really miss many bats. Allows a lot of home runs. He is a lefty though so I guess when you say “He seemed serviceable” maybe you just meant you saw he threw with his left hand.

Randomly looking at some stuff for Ryan Franklin

who was a shitty pitcher turned really shitty turned kinda apparently good. Look at this pitch % graph and tell me it doesn’t make you want to have a seizure.

Thanks, so you're saying Vargas was never so good to begin with.

I think the best thing for C’ryan Franklin (and Pineiro) was moving to the weak league.
But I get your point about the (nonstatistical) impression of Franklin

I half-expected the steamroller to lying upside down ...
Larue has a note this morning on Branyan's ongoing back troubles

here

I'm starting to think we should stick him on the DL :(

Who would we bring up? Carp or Shelton again?

It might be more interesting to see Carp

and from what I understand about back pain the best thing is rest. Let’s hope it doesn’t become chronic.
