Game was a pick em with Harvey vs wood and you had to know the majority of regulars would still be in bed. Safe to say I took the mets

Easy money. Plus, gonna need a full lineup for Meholm anyways

In Poole's defense those blades of grass taking him down were completely blindsiding him

How is Tauren Poole cashing checks in the league?

Stfu

 

[TBrown]

Just looked it up.. Signed a 3 yr/1,447,500. None guaranteed, 7,500 signing bonus. Made 390,000 last yr, 480,000 this yr, 570,000 next yr. if he doesn't get cut, dude will be set for life (if he's smart) and never even touched a field

Would've made more than that if he had gone to Auburn

How is Matt Sims? Assuming he is still with the Jets.

Much easier answer here.

He still is, and he even leapfrogged McElroy on the depth chart. But it is the JETS so that explains everything.

@Braves: C/OF Evan Gattis has been placed on the 15-day DL with a right oblique strain. INF Tyler Pastornicky has been recalled from Gwinnett (AAA).

 

[Vercingetorix]

I bet Verc is walking on sunshine and rainbows now that Pastorsucky is back for a cup of coffee, you guys.

Mostly just staring out into empty space after the crushing realization that even Evan F Gattis is a damn puss just like the rest of them.

They prolly figure since Foster fumbled and tiptoed his way through college and turned out great, then Poole must be the same....................

ok, I have nothing more than that....

don't know much about oblique injuries?

 

[underscore]

You weekend warriors are gonna piss him off...

 

[Vercingetorix]

^ has never pulled an oblique

He hurt himself last night swinging a damn bat and he already knows that he's going to miss TWO WEEKS. Baseball players are freaking ridiculous.

 

[Vercingetorix]

don't know much about oblique injuries?

Actually I have intermittent trouble with what a friend who is a physical therapist has told me is an oblique. I take some painkillers and it goes away after a couple of days. Biggest problem when it acts up is that it makes it agony to wipe after taking a dump.

I guess if I could just stick my hand up in the air when it hurts and go on the DL and somebody else would come take care of my kids for two weeks, I'd probably do it too.

 

[Regulator]

In Poole's defense those blades of grass taking him down were completely blindsiding him

I once said this about Poole: He was attempting to enter the practice field and was confronted with a set of 5 doors, 4 of which were unlocked. He chose the locked door and when it wouldn't open, he collapsed on the ground in frustration.

 

[Regulator]

He hurt himself last night swinging a damn bat and he already knows that he's going to miss TWO WEEKS. Baseball players are freaking ridiculous.

Well, he knows he'll miss two weeks because he's on the DL. He's out two weeks regardless. Going or not going on the DL probably wasn't his call. I would have thought maybe they would give him a few days of rest and see how it responded, seeing as how they already had another catcher on the roster, but it's probably more prudent to shut him down for two weeks at this stage of the season.

Rasmus is gonna make this fun
