The Phanatic is doing yeoman's work behind the plate. I was cracking up that entire half-inning.

How did Dugger make this team over Yamamoto?

I was also wondering who Yamamoto pissed off in the off-season.

i didnt even think of that. that makes no sense. so many puzzling roster choices to start this year.

MIGUEL ROJAS

[fish16]

you cant stop rojas, you can only hope to contain him

[Nick]

You gotta love Miggy.

[fish16]

this team isnt particularly talented but they really have a lot of heart.

Sierra did something! That should be a lesson for him. He literally just pounded the ball into the ground and he ends up with a double.

[Erick]

Sierra did something correctly.

why the fuck is berti hitting 2nd? mattingly might be a good clubhouse guy for the team but he is truly a bad in game pitching switch manager and just stupid when constructing lineups.

dugger wasnt great but he kept the team in the game after an awful first. thats pretty much all you can expect from him after finding out hes starting an hour before the game
