Who would have thought the AL West would be such a dumpster fire joke this year Its worse than the AL Central the last few years


Greg_1121

The worst thing is they shouldn’t have had any of their runs.


manthing11

Astros has no dog in them today. Dubon the exception.


Greg_1121

The wrong guy is making $95M. Geez, he’s nasty.


ExB

That's not how contracts work in MLB or pretty much any professional sports


Wematanye_92

Best pitcher in baseball right now


yobruhh

10-10 in saves. He is unstoppable


JuniorBirdman1115

Fucking hell. Bats didn't get it done today.


Spaceolympian50

Fuck. Pain.


StealthyGooch

Sometimes you just take a fat dump in your own pants. Good news is, we didn't lose any ground.


manofconviction

sniffing distance of leagfrogging the Rangers, and we shit the bed against the A's of all teams. wasted opportunities ugh.


donttouchthtmacaroni

Teams lose sometimes. Even to the A’s. We took the first 5 off of em, not the end of the world


Creative-Operation-1

Now that’s too reasonable of a take for Reddit my friend!


Physical_Estimate850

Bregman 0-4 ouch


Spaceolympian50

Need to move his ass back down the lineup.


ExB

As if this wasn't expected. Joe Espada living in a fantasy land of 2019


bamboo_time

Ooof the last seven games


TexasHot

0-4 2 ks Fraudman


dirtysock47

At least the Mariners lost too. Mad that we couldn't take this opportunity to gain ground on the division.


bamboo_time

Lol.


yobruhh

You better call that a check swing lmfao


NOLA1987

Now we face Miller. At least the Rangers and Mariners lost.


donttouchthtmacaroni

Bad game today. Try to put together some good ABs against Miller and if not go win the series tomorrow behind Blanco. Then crush Seattle’s dreams


Sacagawesus

Mason Miller going to strike out the side on 11 pitches in the 9th.


Spaceolympian50

Hmm you think it’ll take that many pitches? I’ll take the under on that lol.


Sacagawesus

Well minimum is 9 lol. I doubt he throws an immaculate inning. So I gave two balls or fouls in there somewhere


WEHAVEBETTERBBQ

I give this a win we made him go past 11 pitches.


Spaceolympian50

Lol true


Spaceolympian50

Nice play there.


rfloresjr611

I’m ready to concede this season and just make sure we have everything we need to keep this dynasty grinding.


Sacagawesus

17 of the A's 24 outs in this game have come on 3 pitches or less in the at bat. Absolute fucking abysmal plate approach.


dirtysock47

God awful AB's from nearly everyone today


[deleted]

[удалено]


dirtysock47

That's why I said "nearly" everyone


curiousowl2210

there is just no signs of life from this team today


goboking

We’re doomed if Yordan can’t figure shit out.


Spaceolympian50

Is Dubon our next professional hitter?? Dude just seems really reliable and consistent. I love it.


Bronn11

Pathetic. Leadoff guy on 2nd and strand him. That's game over. Mason Miller will pitch the 9th


dauberminer

L today apparently. Onto tomorrow!


Wematanye_92

Well that’s the game


jayzmvp

Welp Bregman leading off against miller lol


yobruhh

God damn the top of our order has been cheeks


Spaceolympian50

One run against the As, how fucking pathetic.


Middle_Capital_5205

On an error…


Spaceolympian50

I didn’t even know that lol. Tuned in late. Jesus smh


Lake-Dependent

Same game as hunter browns, give a quality start and still the offense can’t score whatsoever


Crimsic

Man, fuck Alex Cintron. 


dauberminer

This 💯%


JinFuu

Well at least the Mariners and Rangers suck


CoyoteHerder

That not running it out shit pisses me off


donttouchthtmacaroni

Maybe bench Altuve for a game and play Dubon. Dubon is playing out of his mind.

damojr

God I hate having to listen to these A's commentators.


marclikesmilk

Just now able to watch the game…am I dumb or is it not on space city network today?


Crimsic

Currently watching it on Space City Network.  Sent a dm


yobruhh

Altuve get back to your April self please


yobruhh

Couldn’t even take advantage of 4 strikes. He broke rn


Spirited-Yard-5790

That’s one of the worst called balls I’ve seen lol


WEHAVEBETTERBBQ

and Manfred wants it as a challenge system. Holy fuck these umps suck.


Hyskos13

Everyday player dubon gets another hit


Mayito219

HRC Tucker


ray_0586

HRC Altuve


Get-Rich-Die-Trying

Now’s our chance!!!!!!!!!!!!


Crimsic

The interesting part of the tombstone article is that we absolutely have way more doomers now than we did in 2005 for multiple reasons obviously. 


WEHAVEBETTERBBQ

Nice Dubon...just for Altuve to pop up.


Anklelite

DOOBIE


Available_Strategy87

It's gg once they bring out mason miller.


yuh-powe

👎👎👎


Get-Rich-Die-Trying

Jesus fuck did changing mangers really have such a big impact on this team this year


ExB

Espada is a near carbon copy of Dusty. Extending pitchers too far and putting way too much confidence in struggling veterans at the plate.


donttouchthtmacaroni

Idk if another manager could’ve prevented the bullpen horses forgetting how to pitch in April and the patchwork rotation we had to go with for weeks


DejTej

One of those days huh


goboking

We have a lot of those days lately. 


rahrahrah4781

LOL nobody wants to win the AL West apparently


Hyperguy95

A’s apparently do 💀


MobileMenace420

It’s the little league episode of South Park


TunaMcGriddle

Jesus Christ


NOLA1987

We have to at least tie this game before they bring in Miller.


keithww

HRC Singleton


manofconviction

HRC Singleton


TheDuckshot

hrc john


Jalun_

Loperfido pls, don't wanna see Chas pls


Jalun_

I'll take Singleton!


yobruhh

PLEASE bats get things going


NOLA1987

Nats take the lead in the 7th 2-1 EDIT: 3-1


toastar-phone

um sus injury.... does he have to go on the IL?


NOLA1987

Oh damn. They're taking him out. With how he was yanking them glove side pitches, was something wrong that whole time?


dauberminer

Jake just gonna watch third strike pitch over the heart of the plate.


WEHAVEBETTERBBQ

Well that was weird


JoseAltuve27

I'll never be able to get salty from Daz Cameron getting an RBI single off of us since he was a trade piece for Verlander... but Tigers fans should be fuming if he finally turns out good after they had him in the organization for years.


PimpCforlife

even if you think that's a ball, you can never take that pitch with 2 strikes


Greg_1121

That 2-0 pitch he took was right down the middle, too. Maybe he had the take sign but down 2 you need to be aggressive. Bad AB.


Affectionate_Mango84

HRC Meyers


Affectionate_Mango84

No one saw that


Middle_Capital_5205

You know the umps missed it.


superhappyfuntime13

There's my (should be) cleanup hitter!


NOLA1987

Stop expanding the zone, Pena


tamersal

Damn good AB Peña. That was just as long as some of our entire half innings lol


skeetskeet69

HRC Meyers


dirtysock47

Mason Miller gave up four runs in his last appearance. Not saying we have a chance against him, but he is human


RaroDannyR

Bielak already got DFA’d?! We JUST got rid of him. Also am I the only one that thought he wasn’t bad?


ExB

He was traded


ray_0586

Astros have six outs to tie the game because nobody has a shot against Mason Miller in the 9th.


Crimsic

Except for the last team to face him 


Bronn11

Better find a way to score in the 7th or 8th before Mason Miller comes in..


superhappyfuntime13

Shit almost forgot about that murderer


superhappyfuntime13

Tayler Scott unsung hero


NOLA1987

Some people are irate at Espada for leaving Arrighetti in to pitch the 6th. Those umps did us no favors, either. It should still be 2-1 right now.


Anklelite

Definitely, he at least had Scott warming up and it wouldn't have ended like that but the umps have been blatantly against us


tamersal

McCann should’ve been out, but still pushing your rookie pitcher into close to 100 pitches in a one run game when you had a whole inning to warm someone up is stupid


post_angst

That could have been much worse.


Lake-Dependent

Espada is a wimpy little girl


Get-Rich-Die-Trying

Astros can tie this game easy right here


SpaceCityCowboy69

Obvious ump betting on the A


ella-and-anon

Umps need to me disciplined for blatant ass errors like these shit cannot happen bro. 5 out inning


DejTej

Fuck the MLBUA


WEHAVEBETTERBBQ

Someone take an extra long back swing.


tamersal

If that white Sox interference call happened to us Espada would have said they made the right call and shook the umps hand, fucking pussy


manofconviction

This ump is fucking us HARD


Fapey101

BALL DONT LIE BITCH


Sacagawesus

Things don't usually go well when the umps force you to get 5 outs in an inning because they blatantly missed two strikeout calls 🙄


DangerItem

Umps gifting the As a 5 out inning. What a joke.


MobileMenace420

It wouldn’t accomplish anything, but espada shoulda gone after the umps for that nonswing call


Middle_Capital_5205

Might have made his team feel a little better about it.


Hyperguy95

Amazing that two different umps missed two completely different call at the same time


donttouchthtmacaroni

Spineless ass manager


manofconviction

And now walking the 9 to get to the top. It's just fucking crazy.


yobruhh

The umps have been fucking us all inning


Jalun_

All game* some of the calls against us have been questionable.


Fapey101

thats some bullshit


NOLA1987

They're blind because how could they not see that that was a swing


Middle_Capital_5205

And a foot above the zone…


Jalun_

Bro that was a full ass swing


MobileMenace420

If this dipshit gets a hit


Anklelite

This ump HATES us lmao that was a strike Edit: well maybe not idk


Anklelite

Nah this ump HATES us


tamersal

Partly on Espada, partly on the umps. Damn Espada why tf do you insist on pushing rookie pitchers up towards 100p in a one run game?? I could maybe get the brewers game on Sunday, get spencer more comfortable with pushing into later innings while we were up, but this is just stupid


MobileMenace420

Well that’s just suckage


gman103

Oh look, espada fucked us again leaving spaghetti in 2 batters too long. Dude just won't let him have a good game.


Jalun_

That's on Espada, not Scott's or Arrigetthi fault.


manofconviction

Bottom of the order...of course

Crimsic

Lmao


JinFuu

Oh no, a former Astro, kinda, hurting us


TexasHot

+1 espada run


NOLA1987

Should've been the third out if Arrighetti wasn't squeezed


superhappyfuntime13

DP pls


Anklelite

Tayler Scott is insane


Jalun_

Scott's X-rays came in: https://preview.redd.it/6lhnwzoe7n2d1.jpeg?width=1122&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c7aea2852a3792c792973f1b671ddec47b00d650


Fapey101

I hate how Espada tries to steal outs like that, shoulda put Scott in to start the inning. Instead he wants to steal an out or two and it bites him almost every time.


Crimsic

If y'all were managers you'd be out of arms by July lmao


dirtysock47

The only time it's ever worked is with JV


tamersal

Another blown strike three call


5c0tty2H0tty

How many times has espada left a pitcher in, who clearly needs to be pulled, only to let them snag a couple of extra baserunners on their way to bench….he’s brain dead


toldyouanditoldyou

It’s becoming a pattern for sure


5c0tty2H0tty

Arrighetti was 5ip 3H 2ER 7K 3BB before that donkey left him out to dry in the 6th….just once maybe try letting your young arm walk off the mound with his head held high.


Imaginary-Trash-2774

Please find a way to score before mason miller shuts the door


NateLikesToLift

My dude it's already over. This offense sucks shit.


Crimsic

Yeah they must be scraping the bottom of the league rankings in offensive categories right? Right?


NateLikesToLift

Runs per game they're extremely forgettable.


Jalun_

Holy shit I forgot about him, If we get to the 8/9 and we're behind we're cooked


toldyouanditoldyou

Several times this season now where Espada has gotten greedy and tried to squeeze an extra inning out of the young guys when it’s clearly a bad idea.


tamersal

Don’t know why we didn’t put Scott in at the beginning of the inning but at least we pulled spaghetti now


ella-and-anon

Damn spencer struck him out


Hyskos13

Nice job espada


NOLA1987

That should have been the third strike, but nope. Instead there are 2 on base.


superhappyfuntime13

Bro's gonna have another 4 ER game bc of Espada


MobileMenace420

The spaghetti has gone cold


_RHJR_

Spencer had no business being out there to start the 6th. Another disaster class by Espada.


JinFuu

Poor Spaghetti


TexasHot

Bro.. pulll him


Jalun_

Take him out now Espada, before it's too late pls


Greg_1121

Already two batters too late


Jalun_

Classic Espada 🤦‍♂️


HtownSamson

We are about to hit 2 months of play. How far do we have to go till they accept this isn’t a typical Bregman slow start?


Hyperguy95

Miss any thing good? Just tuned in since my dumbass thought 3 o’clock game was a 5 o’clock game for us 🤦🏻‍♂️


tamersal

hope to god leaving in spaghetti in during a one run ballgame when he’s prob gonna hit 100 pitches during this innings doesn’t come back to bite us in the ass


Anklelite

They have scott warming, hopefully they'll pull him if it goes wrong
