We could never keep him on the field long enough to build up his value. The minute he played long enough to have value Beane wisely dumped him on the most desperate organization available. In other words, we got the best thing that was available at the same time Rich was able to pitch.
I just don't buy that teams were so scared of Harden's health that Beane
couldn’t have gotten more for him. Teams make ridiculous trades all the time. I don’t believe for one second that Harden’s value had dropped so low that gallagher was the best he could do
in the last few years? Everyone knows he’s a great pitcher…..when he can pitch. Which isn’t very often. Beane got what he could get. Is Rich a better pitcher than Gallagher? Of course he is……when he can take the field. Which ain’t often and not likely to change anytime soon.
Beane has been playing this game a long time. Do you seriously believe that he let Harden go for less than maximum value possible? Why would he do such a stupid thing? Neither you or anyone else on this site is as qualified as Beane to do his job. To think that Beane didn’t maximize his position with Harden is more than slightly ridiculous.
How is that ridiculous. Beane has made bad trades in the past. Isn't it
possible that Beane just really liked Gallagher so he went with that trade? to me this trade plays out like Beane panicked, and just traded Harden for anything he could get.
So my opinion is ridiculous because I don't agree with the masses here
Gallagher has had like 3 good starts for the A’s and has looked awful in every other starts. his control is bad and he can’t hold leads. I don’t see why it’s so ridiculous that I think that he might not be all that great.
are all 22 years old and their play looks every bit the part. It doesn’t mean they won’t be good. Gallagher’s stuff was downright electric tonight – and if Crosby, you know, catches a soft line drive, the results might look very different. True Gallagher fell apart after two misplays, but again, that’s youth. He has a great arm and a lot to learn. Let’s see how things look in two years.
I was agreeing with you. I’m actually very excited about our pitching next year. It’s the offense I’m worried about, as every A’s fan should be. But, I think Billy has some offseason moves in mind. I’m watching his postgame show.
Beane dumped Harden the very second he managed to aquire value. Comparable to controlling an under performing stock and holding it till its value started to rise. The second it did Beane cut his losses and made the best trade available on the market.
That’s not to say that I don’t believe Gallagher will improve. I think he most certainly will. He’s young and enjoying his longest sustained period in the majors. Give him another year and see how he does.
I hear that Lackey was absolutely crushed tonight. I can’t help but wonder if the Angels fans are feeling the cold fingers of failure encircling their necks yet again.
ok
The Golden One - September 26, 2008
Cust still with a chance at 200-100-30
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
How many strikeouts does he have now?
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
A lot.
alox - September 26, 2008
the milestone of immortals and adam dunn
DyeLongJustice - September 26, 2008
And Mark Reynolds
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
Kurt should wear his first name on his back
DyeLongJustice - September 26, 2008
it makes your team lose over a hundred games if you do.
The Golden One - September 26, 2008
lol, but at least we'd spend more money
DyeLongJustice - September 26, 2008
But they might win 116 first
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
Wouldn't that be sweet?
Especially if the Angels won 102 and still couldn’t make the wildcard.
alox - September 26, 2008
But you trade off a good reg season for crappy playoffs
all because of the first name on the back.
The Golden One - September 26, 2008
The Angels aren't even trying.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
They don't want us to get 2nd.
How rude.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
well they locked up home field advantage with the Rays loss...so what does it matter?
DyeLongJustice - September 26, 2008
That poses a dilema for me.
I want to see the Angels swept out of the playoffs, but I also want them to lose the third game in the ALDS on their own field.
alox - September 26, 2008
Bitches.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
Fun Game!!!
The Legend of Jack Cust continues!
alox - September 26, 2008
Every time they say "Wild Card"
I sing “Wild Thing”
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
Yay Carlos!
Betancourt takes pride in his defense, just like Ibanez.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
he's not playing for his own stats.
It must be him who wants to beat Ichiro’s ass.
alox - September 26, 2008
One more time:
IowaA'sFan - September 26, 2008
Yay Carlos!
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
Nice play at SS there.
IowaA'sFan - September 26, 2008
Betancourt is their Crosby
At different times, I thought each one of them would be the next great AL West shortstop. Fail and fail.
Soaker - September 26, 2008
Yuni has money on this game....
and it is not on his team.
Masaryk - September 26, 2008
question
if we dont resign rajai and we know emil is gone and carlos stays in AAA, would we be the only all white team in MLB?
DyeLongJustice - September 26, 2008
I'm sure we will sign Craig Monroe
athleticsBB4life - September 26, 2008
Casilla. Gio.
Rajai isn’t an FA after this season. Unless the A’s nontender him, he’s ours.
Blicks - September 26, 2008
Casilla, Patterson, Gio...
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
Casilla?
The Golden One - September 26, 2008
I guess Patterson's not part of your vision, and Chavez isn't Mexican enough and
Suzuki isn’t Japanese enough.
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
Crosby 1 big hit this year, please
athleticsBB4life - September 26, 2008
Crosby....he gone
athleticsBB4life - September 26, 2008
that swing was painful
Erin6 - September 26, 2008
Eyeball-high heat.
Oh, my head.
IowaA'sFan - September 26, 2008
i wonder what Emil does during the game when he's not playing
DyeLongJustice - September 26, 2008
Crochets.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
"Waves his RBI wand"
IowaA'sFan - September 26, 2008
communes with unicorns?
alox - September 26, 2008
The M's will get Strasburg
and blow out his arm, like they’re doing with Morrow.
Blicks - September 26, 2008
Nah Morrow just needs to learn to pitch when he's tired. He's a young horse with a rubber arm.
He’ll be fine.
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
Barton needed that hit so he can beat swishers avg this year
its the small goals in life
The Golden One - September 26, 2008
Does anyone have the number of the Seattle official scorer?
I’d be interested in sampling the crack he’s on.
Nico - September 26, 2008
in my 20 yrs as an A's fan...Crosby has to be the biggest dissapointment
Brent Gates as well
athleticsBB4life - September 26, 2008
What was he like in the minors?
Erin6 - September 26, 2008
gates?
athleticsBB4life - September 26, 2008
Todd Van Poppel
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
This is clearly the correct answer
Soaker - September 26, 2008
how about Prieto?
The Golden One - September 26, 2008
Was he supposed to be any good, or just more "ready" than Helton?
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
A friend of mine from high school married someone named Prieto.
I giggled. No relation.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
Jose Ortiz
athleticsBB4life - September 26, 2008
nah Bo Porter
o.k. I’m just weird
The Golden One - September 26, 2008
Fuck
athleticsBB4life - September 26, 2008
Now when the ball is hit to left
it makes me nervous.
That one, however… Trav can’t take responsibility for that. Crap.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
Fuck you.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
Gallagher has big issues with holding leads.
Erin6 - September 26, 2008
Which normally isn't a problem, but tonight...
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
why yes, yes he does
SwisherThresher - September 26, 2008
That's my biggest problem with him. Almost everytime the A's give him a lead, he gives it
right back the next inning.
Erin6 - September 26, 2008
OK who was it that dissed Lopez?
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
I think LL
might want to “find Lopez and knock him out”
Soaker - September 26, 2008
Reading LL's game thread is entertaining.
They’re as angry at Lopez as we are. Actually, probably more.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
Gallagher.
Belt high right down the middle. He might want to stop throwing the ball in that location. Just a thought.
alox - September 26, 2008
Dude.
Kimberly - September 26, 2008
This game is c-razy.
IowaA'sFan - September 26, 2008
On the plus side,
this game is dragging on and on… which means more baseball for us!
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
AL Central is going to be interesting this weekend.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
Why yes, yes it is.
All I know is that I get to watch someone suffer.
alox - September 26, 2008
oops.
Ray, reading the MLB network ad: “…exclusive excess… exclusive access…”
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
Exclusive access to what?
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
I don't know.
I wasn’t really paying that much attention.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
I don't think he said.
Just exclusive access.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
C'mon, boys.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
Communicate.
(Does AN 3.0 not like one-word comments or something?)
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
AHHHHH!!
I thought they were going to die.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
Cliffy. That was bad.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
Yes.
Very un-laser like.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
Bad Clif!
justarebelheart - September 26, 2008
poor relay all around
The Golden One - September 26, 2008
ugh
SwisherThresher - September 26, 2008
Strange game!
Bad throw by Pennington. What happened earlier with Lopez?
alox - September 26, 2008
HR again.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
what when he hit ball far?
The Golden One - September 26, 2008
so all in all Gallagher had about 3 good starts for A's this season.
Erin6 - September 26, 2008
Ya 3 starts of at least 6 IP, plus the 4 no-hit innings with 6 walks
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
Riggleman's secret brilliance: Morrow can still get the win
Very much worth allowing his arm to fall off.
Nico - September 26, 2008
Of Course!
Then the Mariners will finish the season only 39 games back!
alox - September 26, 2008
for some reason it keeps teammates from punching ichiro
The Golden One - September 26, 2008
Please stop being bad, my sanity is at stake
Graham MacAree - September 26, 2008
It's sad this is the future...we may be the Pirates of the west
shitty for the next 10 yrs
athleticsBB4life - September 26, 2008
If Gallagher is the ace, then that might be possible
Erin6 - September 26, 2008
I was hoping for the Rays. Of course we'd have to change the name to Devil Athletics.
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
Ryan "Devil Girl" Swooney would fit right in.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
Gallagher will be a decent pitcher.
He’ll never be the traditional “ace” type pitcher, but he will be pretty solid.
alox - September 26, 2008
I don't see him even being anywhere close to solid. he is absolutely horrendous.
Erin6 - September 26, 2008
I'll withhold judgment until next season.
I think he’ll be fine. I hope so anyway.
alox - September 26, 2008
I just don't see anything good from him. he walks to many people and is incapable of
holding leads. This Harden trade was just awful.
Erin6 - September 26, 2008
No. Not really.
Gallagher can recover and learn from his experience during his first year. Rich will require his own trauma team on staff and still won’t pitch.
alox - September 26, 2008
For me though, It's not really so much what Harden does now. The A's could have
gotten more for him. I just don’t buy that Gallagher was the best out there. He’ll never be anything but a 5th starter on a bad team IMO.
Erin6 - September 26, 2008
How?
We could never keep him on the field long enough to build up his value. The minute he played long enough to have value Beane wisely dumped him on the most desperate organization available. In other words, we got the best thing that was available at the same time Rich was able to pitch.
alox - September 26, 2008
I just don't buy that teams were so scared of Harden's health that Beane
couldn’t have gotten more for him. Teams make ridiculous trades all the time. I don’t believe for one second that Harden’s value had dropped so low that gallagher was the best he could do
Erin6 - September 26, 2008
How many innings do you think Rich pitched
in the last few years? Everyone knows he’s a great pitcher…..when he can pitch. Which isn’t very often. Beane got what he could get. Is Rich a better pitcher than Gallagher? Of course he is……when he can take the field. Which ain’t often and not likely to change anytime soon.
Beane has been playing this game a long time. Do you seriously believe that he let Harden go for less than maximum value possible? Why would he do such a stupid thing? Neither you or anyone else on this site is as qualified as Beane to do his job. To think that Beane didn’t maximize his position with Harden is more than slightly ridiculous.
alox - September 26, 2008
How is that ridiculous. Beane has made bad trades in the past. Isn't it
possible that Beane just really liked Gallagher so he went with that trade? to me this trade plays out like Beane panicked, and just traded Harden for anything he could get.
Erin6 - September 26, 2008
You just said Gallagher will be a 5th starter
on a bad team. That’s ridiculous enough not to be worthy of discussion.
Nico - September 26, 2008
So my opinion is ridiculous because I don't agree with the masses here
Gallagher has had like 3 good starts for the A’s and has looked awful in every other starts. his control is bad and he can’t hold leads. I don’t see why it’s so ridiculous that I think that he might not be all that great.
Erin6 - September 26, 2008
No, your opinion is ridiculous because
it’s a ridiculous opinion. A #5 starter on a bad team is Kevin Correia – Sean Gallagher has a very bright future by all accounts.
Nico - September 26, 2008
I always love a good tautology...
especially when it’s true.
FoolshGame22 - September 26, 2008
Gio and Carlos Gonzalez, and Sean Gallagher,
are all 22 years old and their play looks every bit the part. It doesn’t mean they won’t be good. Gallagher’s stuff was downright electric tonight – and if Crosby, you know, catches a soft line drive, the results might look very different. True Gallagher fell apart after two misplays, but again, that’s youth. He has a great arm and a lot to learn. Let’s see how things look in two years.
Nico - September 26, 2008
no need to explain yourself...
I was agreeing with you. I’m actually very excited about our pitching next year. It’s the offense I’m worried about, as every A’s fan should be. But, I think Billy has some offseason moves in mind. I’m watching his postgame show.
FoolshGame22 - September 26, 2008
Sorry, that was for erin6
Nico - September 26, 2008
he'll probably be a #1 or #2 on the A's in 2009...
that disproves the statement, right there. Cuz we’re going to be a bad team.
FoolshGame22 - September 26, 2008
To me,
Beane dumped Harden the very second he managed to aquire value. Comparable to controlling an under performing stock and holding it till its value started to rise. The second it did Beane cut his losses and made the best trade available on the market.
That’s not to say that I don’t believe Gallagher will improve. I think he most certainly will. He’s young and enjoying his longest sustained period in the majors. Give him another year and see how he does.
alox - September 26, 2008
Have you ever watched a young team before?
Nico - September 26, 2008
Pirates have been young for the last 10
athleticsBB4life - September 26, 2008
I have, but I've seen nothing good from Gallagher. Even young pitchers should be able
to hold a lead every once in awhile.
Erin6 - September 26, 2008
I saw the 2001 A's. They were pretty young.
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
that was a really bad throw by whoever the hell is playing 2nd base
jdub69 - September 26, 2008
I think the ball trickled home.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
At least Kurt didn't have to block the plate.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
He was close enough to cover first.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
The M's should put Batista in next inning.
Or maybe a position player should pitch. That would be entertaining.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
Like when Spiezio took the hill vs the A's
Friday, 15 June 2007
SwisherThresher - September 26, 2008
weenie arm
jdub69 - September 26, 2008
Wow
Pennington having a horrible game
pbra17 - September 26, 2008
ouch
The Golden One - September 26, 2008
This is not fun anymore.
Not a bit.
alox - September 26, 2008
was it ever fun after the all-star break?
jdub69 - September 26, 2008
No.....I can't seem to recall very many fun times since July.
alox - September 26, 2008
GAH
This is ridiculous! You’re playing the MARINERS. This is the part when you WIN.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
The fantastic defense continues
jdub69 - September 26, 2008
When Rob Johnson hits one out....we are toast.
ROB F’ING JOHNSON
Masaryk - September 26, 2008
That ball was tattooed
I love the hit. I hate seeing it against us. But for his first major league bomb, that was a monster.
louismg - September 26, 2008
at least our scoreboard operators can add better then theres
The Golden One - September 26, 2008
24 runs in last 2 games...way to finish out boys
athleticsBB4life - September 26, 2008
2 games? Try 13 innings. :-(
Nico - September 26, 2008
Time to switch back to Ducks @ Sharks, preseason
SwisherThresher - September 26, 2008
what channel is that on?
The Golden One - September 26, 2008
It's on the
WHOCARESITSNOTREALLYASPORTIMISSBASEBALLALREADYCHANNEL
louismg - September 26, 2008
But your a kings fan and there not really and nba team anymore
The Golden One - September 26, 2008

SwisherThresher - September 26, 2008
Let's go Cliffy
Try to make up for some of that kRazY “defense.”
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
Oh. What a tease.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
TWDS.
Kimberly - September 26, 2008
Apparently Ryan likes to tease.
So says Jennifer.
alox - September 26, 2008
Thud.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
wait for the walk, and then... Sweeney homerun?
jdub69 - September 26, 2008
not so much
jdub69 - September 26, 2008
Crap.
Close only counts in horse shoes and hand grenades, Ryan.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
Does anyone else think this Freeze Cam thing is pretty stupid?
Every shot is blurry and pointless. Not impressed.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
Gio time!
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
THEY'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
That was scary.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
This game reminds me of a bunch of little kids on a playground.
Eventually, someone is going to crash into someone else. There will be tears and stitches, and stickers from the nurse.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
Nurse = Greggles?
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
Sure, in our own little fantasy world.
Wasn’t Aaron Cunningham a nurse?
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
I think they both were.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
Is there any chance of a second place finish at this point or are we dust?
jdub69 - September 26, 2008
The M's are determined to retain their hold on fourth.
So there’s that.
alox - September 26, 2008
Pennington = game you want to forget
jdub69 - September 26, 2008
Yay Gio!
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
What the hell just happened?
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
I saw a pickoff
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
How many is that now?
Do we get free Pepsi with the millionth?
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
I don't know where to find that, do you?
I found something that had the AL leaders. For the A’s, Smith 15, Braden 7, Eveland and Ziggy 2 each. So it’s at least the 27th.
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
I'm not sure what it is but I'm just positive the A's will come back and win this game!
jdub69 - September 26, 2008
Cust swung at a bad pitch.
Huh.
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
and another
jdub69 - September 26, 2008
33 HR's for Cust...
and only 76 RBI. That tells you how terrible the rest of this A’s offense has been all season.
FoolshGame22 - September 26, 2008
his .230 avg doesn't help too much with his run production either
jdub69 - September 26, 2008
true
FoolshGame22 - September 26, 2008
Barton and Miley can onlyh dream of an avg that high
The Golden One - September 26, 2008
Us outside RyRy's house:
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
You're guarding the house?
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
A possessed cat is just one of my many identities.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
But shouldn't a stalker be facing the other way?
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
Not if the house is across the street.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
Clearly I've a lot to learn about stalking.
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
I had to give up some of my stalking when I got my new car.
The car is bright orange. Do you know how hard it is to stalk someone while driving a bright orange car?
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
Somebody makes a bright orange car?
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
that was my question too…
justarebelheart - September 26, 2008
I've actually seen a surprising number of orange cars.
My friend wanted one but thought it would hurt the resale value. She went with silver instead.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
It's actually UT orange.
There are TONS of cars that color.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
Maroon?
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
Umber?
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
http://www.allcarnews.com/static/_images/high-quality/hummer-ht-sut-limited-editions-2319.jpg
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
You need a new stalkmobile
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
That is the COLOR, not the car.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
We could take my car.
It’s tan and half the paint is chipping off the hood. And it’s almost 10 years old. Pretty nondescript. But I just washed it today, so it’s clean!
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
This is very close.
But I have dark tinted windows. And my car is dirty.
http://media.motortopia.com/files/6096/vehicle/4633cdf4d6291/100_1621.jpg
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
That's not too bad. I probably wouldn't notice it
parked across the street a block away for several weeks in a row.
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
vw gti, ford mustang for a couple
The Golden One - September 26, 2008
Yanks adding on--now 19-5 in the 9th.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
Yet still,
the RS are mocking them.
alox - September 26, 2008
By the way....
I hear that Lackey was absolutely crushed tonight. I can’t help but wonder if the Angels fans are feeling the cold fingers of failure encircling their necks yet again.
alox - September 26, 2008
Oh, c'mon. Take Lowe out.
They’re not even trying to lose. Don’t they want to be #1?
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
The Angels get the Red Sox!
Sweet!! ALDS repeat!!
alox - September 26, 2008
Angels did pretty well vs Boston this year though.
They’re not a pushover.
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
Yeah, I know.
But Boston has been there before. They have a way of stepping up when they have to.
alox - September 26, 2008
Sure, they're the favorite in any series.
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
Sadly,
they will by my favorite in this series. On the bright side, should they advance I can turn on them like a pit bull with a stick in it’s eye.
alox - September 26, 2008
It's good the White Sox, Twins and Rays can count on your support
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
Yay Trav!
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
Yay Travis!
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
What's up with Travis?
Dare we hope?

I'm telling you
jdub69 - September 26, 2008
Sure, I always hope.
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
HR?
mrod - September 26, 2008
Sweet!
I just saw the updated score. Go A’s!!!!!
mrod - September 26, 2008
Sorry....
RBI double. Pretty swing too. Looks like he’s staying on the ball.
alox - September 26, 2008
That was sweeet! Ichiro K's swinging.
jdub69 - September 26, 2008
Game over at the Big A
TEX 12, LAA 1. A Mariners win tonight clinches second place for the Rangers.
Soaker - September 26, 2008
3 runs down is not a problem for this potent...
A’s offense!
FoolshGame22 - September 26, 2008
Sox lose, Rays win the East!
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
Gio looking like Nolan Ryan, another K
jdub69 - September 26, 2008
Nice inning, Gio!
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
Wow.
Very nice. Cold as ice.
IowaA'sFan - September 26, 2008
Gio K's the side, stay tuned for A's comeback
jdub69 - September 26, 2008
Yay Gio!
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
My game wrap is gonna super late tonight guys, sorry.
We’ll have to have some post game discussion here in the interim.
notsellingjeans - September 26, 2008
Ry, make mommy proud.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
He got a hit!
The world is ending!
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
That'll do.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
Yay Ryan!
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
Man crush!
IowaA'sFan - September 26, 2008
Sweeney get's it started!
jdub69 - September 26, 2008
Has Cust started with that eye coach yet?
jdub69 - September 26, 2008
Jack has 195 strickouts... he could definitely get to 200.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
Yes, he has the ability to strike out any time he wants.
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
If he has 199 on Sunday
I bet they would pinch-hit for him.
Soaker - September 26, 2008
That'll get one home. We're only down 2 now.
jdub69 - September 26, 2008
I like watching all the dugout high-fives.
It’s cute.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
I refuse to high-five anyone.
Ask ohtobe21.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
Hmm. Intriguing.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
is it a germ phobia thing?
FoolshGame22 - September 26, 2008
Not really...
It’s just very awkward to me.
Jennifer - September 26, 2008
You still do the bash?
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
8 runs and a loss.
WaddellCanseco - September 26, 2008
Bwahahha!
No Strasburg for you!
IowaA'sFan - September 26, 2008
"Reverse magic numbers"
Mariners: 2 (any combination of M’s losses and Nationals wins)
Nationals: 3 (any combination of Nationals losses and M’s wins)
Soaker - September 26, 2008
Gah! I'm so confused.
I thought it was the 8th. I fail.
whiteshoes40 - September 26, 2008
yeah, I think they skipped an inning...
as Galt would say: “What happened?” He says that all the time now when a commercial comes on during one of his favorite cartoons.
FoolshGame22 - September 26, 2008
At least Gio was good
