2012 MLB Season Game Thread: August

[Namaste]

That Astros team is god awful.

true

And they've scored more runs than the Marlins

[HUGG]

Would you rather have more runs than a team or 16 more wins than a team?

[Mainge]

I'd rather be in a good draft position like them.

[HUGG]

Yeah

but I'd rather pick 8th than have the worst roster in the majors by a mile, a shitty farm system, and the #1 pick

that team is fucked for years

[Mainge]

They have Jose Altuve. I want that for us, Hugg.

[HUGG]

I bet we could get him for Stanton.

[Chewford]

I'm a little late to the Dempster discussion but he could go to the Canadian embassy and tell them he lost his passport and pay the fee to rush order a new one. It's not like he doesn't have the money or that they would tell him no. He's also been in the AL for almost 3 weeks and has had plenty of time to check the schedule and see that they had a trip to Toronto coming up. He could have gotten his passport already. If that's the reason he is not making his next start, that is completely retarded.

He probably just didn't want to go to Canada, it's a silly place.

[Mainge]

I bet we could get him for Stanton.

Three of him could fit in Stanton.

I think a Stanton should be a unit of measurement

Maybe 494 feet

How did you not get that I was just doing a "thing" and just showing that MIA is not light years away from god awful?

[HUGG]

Responding to jokes/things seriously is quite enjoyable.

[Namaste]
