Let's get a win.

 

Volquez is not good.

This is easily a MUST WIN series at this point...we can not afford to lose 2 of 3 to San Diego...they're garbage. 

[BaltBird 24]

If we lose two of three to San Diego we are in worse trouble than even I suspect since it's only a two game series.... If we manage to play three in San Diego we are really F'd.

So we have to sweep since there's only three options? (we sweep, they sweep, there's a split)

Really looking forward to the late night game thread tonight. Who's with me?

Last years marathon game against the Mariners was one of my favorite memories, staying up with all the crazies.

No doubt. Still kicking myself for bailing on that one. I had an important day at work the next day.

Well, I can sleep in til 6 if I REALLY push it.... but that's about as late as I can go. However, I hope to go to bed while we're leading and (hopefully) wake up to a win.

Not when the games start at only 7:30.

Yeah, that's the one silver lining about your rant this morning. It happens to me occasionally too, and the nice thing is how well I sleep the day after that happens. The bad thing, is getting through the day because of how drop dead tired I am.

[Chris B]

I'll stay up for a bit. If it's an enticing game, maybe I'll stretch it to the full 9.

 

If you're drafting 11 in fantasy football, who are you taking? This is the first time in my competitive league that we're playing with 12. Just trying a mock out now.

PPR league, TD League, or performance league where receptions don't matter?
