This shit doesn't surprise me anymore with these injuries. It's basically who's next??? I don't want to hear how other teams have a lot of injuries!!!

 

First day of a transfer.

Okay make your Mcdonalds joke, bkitch

 

No jokes from me. A job is a job man!!

 

We have 100 more days on the DL over the second highest team. This has just been a totally fucked few years it feels.

 

I don't work at Mcdonalds. haha
I'm a classroom aide at an elementary school.
Mcdonalds/taco bell etc are common photoshops Irish makes whenever someone brings up work

 

Good to know that I am not the only one pissed off about this!

 

Well our bats are starting to swing it, I still wouldn't mind an OF

I've gone back and forth on this a ton maybe a big time starter is our biggest need with all these fucking injuries/set backs

 

Yeah I know

hopefully they get creative which they've been known to do

 

I know that this is a big boy game and all but Turner seems to be getting back on track......and I assume he would like a long term contract with the Doyers.....not that we will give it to him. But for the rest of the season, do we really want to "upset the applecart" by trading for Longoria and basically telling Turner "screw you" for the rest of the season. Again, they are big boys getting paid a TON of cash, so the gut response is "suck it up". But I think if we acquired Longoria and even if we put him in the OF, don't you think that Turner would mentally be affected by the trade, and go into a slump. Im not sure I want that during the year. Off season acquisition...sure. Also MGT does not have a good record of finding mid season talent that does not tank once there is a Dodger logo on the front shirt.

 

Knew you were gonna say that too.

Anyone else choose their words very carefully when you post? Knowing Irish will edit some homo sentence in there?

 

Man, it sucks being a Dodger fan sometimes. This shit just doesn't happen to other teams.

 

I've changed my phrasing for a post before, yes. But most of the time I say "fuck it", irish will butcher a post for cheap laughs when he's in the mood, and when he's not in the mood I've seen him pass on posts that were set up on a tee. He's almost always in the mood.

 

Well that's one way to get rid of the Hatcher scourge

 

Indians, Brewers Discussing Jonathan Lucroy
By Steve Adams | July 20, 2016 at 4:14pm CDT

The Indians and Brewers are in trade talks pertaining to catcher Jonathan Lucroy, reports ESPN’s Buster Olney (via Twitter). Olney notes that it’s possible that yesterday’s setback for Michael Brantley (and, presumably, the injury toYan Gomes) has urged Cleveland to add a hitter.

 

Eh, we kinda knew Lucroy wasn't commin here. With Grandal pickin it up a bit this month (hittin 300 so far), and the picks needed to get him, I wasn't hopeful.
