10 pitch PA from Profar

Cameron

11:02

when was the last time the Marlins were over .500 in July

Meg Rowley

11:02

Like, over .500 for that month, or over .500 on July 31?

Ben Clemens

11:03

And back

Derek

11:03

I may have jinxed Bumgarner. Though I'm also surprised he's still in

Meg Rowley

11:03

I'm more surprised it was Hosmer who did the damage

(if it's when was the last time the club was .500 on July 31, in 2017)

5 Run Homer

11:04

Eric Hosmer is clutch, friends

YardGoat

11:04

Pirates just pulled within one

Ben Clemens

11:04

Kim not exactly locking down the closer role just yet

I'm very excited to see Kodi Whitley at some point

He really takes pop-up prospect to the next level, he started last year in A Ball

Braves fan late to the... party?

11:05

Other than the guy who bought 100 cutouts, the Chipper Jones cutout that somehow made it in Citi field has to be close to the best.

Ben Clemens

11:05

Yeah a delightful one

Nick

11:06

The teams with cardboard cutouts in the stand should add more as the season goes on if the team is doing well, and remove them if the season is going poorly.

Ben Clemens

11:06

You say that, but what if the cutout was of you?

Cameron

11:06

@Meg the latter

YardGoat

11:06

Shouldn't the Pirates pinch run for Osuna here?

Meg Rowley

11:06

.500 on July 31, in 2017

Ben Clemens

11:06

In one word, yes.

In two words, definitely yes.

Braves fan late to the... party?

11:07

or, for the bad teams, people could send it increasingly disgruntled pictures of themselves.

Ben Clemens

11:07

Now that I'd be into

Someone could go put paper bags on the cutouts

5 Run Homer

11:07

Kim’s delivery is wild

Meg Rowley

11:08

I used my twitter pic for a reason

Derek

11:09

The A's have a cutout hot dog vendor from like the 1920s or something and also stuffed animals in their seats.

And it looks like cutouts of muppets?

Meg Rowley

11:09

I am under strict orders to not work at all tomorrow, but would collecting pics and GIFs really be work?

Ben Clemens

11:09

Cards close it out

If you'll forgive my homerism, Kolten Wong turns double plays like a freaking wizard

Nick

11:10

Re: Cutouts: You know the season is going poorly when you find in your mailbox your wadded-up cardboard cutout because the team no longer needs that many "fans" in the stands.

Ben Clemens

11:10

"Sorry, you looked too happy"

Braves fan late to the... party?

11:11

I still think the Dodgers staff should be seen placing their cutouts in the 3rd inning

Ben Clemens

11:11

The Dodgers fans in last night's chat didn't appreciate my version of that joke

But yes

Meg Rowley

11:12

lol that joke is great

Ben Clemens

11:12

Dodgers fans on time? C'mon

Defenestrater

11:12

The A’s also have Tom Hanks lending his voice for the hot dog vendor

Meg Rowley

11:12

I am still figuring out the right balance of seriousness and whimsy but damn if there isn't some deeply Meg shit going on this season.

Connecting…
