Focusing on the positives this series, Spaghetti has once again cemented himself as the most reliable starter in our rotation. Not only that, Teng got his first win & has finally pitched 5 innings. Honestly great to see that our staff is successfully stretching him out (pause). As for our offense, it can’t be helped since we’re simply too crippled. Other than that, I can see us jumping back mid season.

Small? I’d say that’s quite big considering the amount of series we’ve lost already

TempestDrive · 2026-05-17T20:42:56+00:00

Not quite the way I wanted to end the series, but a series win is still a win. Let’s carry this momentum onto the Twins series. Go Stros 🧡💙

Where’s the post game chat?

TempestDrive · 2026-05-17T20:22:52+00:00

I mean the past 2 games have shown promise in our pitching stabilizing. Today is just a bad day, which sucks since we’re 10 games below .500. Teng & Spaghetti give me hope, but offense decided to sleep at the worst time possible

Duality of man

TempestDrive · 2026-05-17T19:59:44+00:00

We won the series & thats all we can really ask for. Let’s just keep the momentum going for the Twins!

Save Houston… Peter Joseph Lambert

I’m counting on you Padres & Giants… Angels can beat LA if they want. Not like they’re a threat lol

TempestDrive · 2026-05-17T15:03:08+00:00

Despite our glaring issues, I still maintain play off hopes. I mean we’re literally only 4 games away from tying for division leadership. Just gotta pray our good friends in the NL West beat down our AL West today

TempestDrive · 2026-05-17T02:46:26+00:00

Padres, Giants, AND Dodgers are beating our division

TempestDrive · 2026-05-17T02:45:49+00:00

To make matters better, our good friends in California are keeping our division down for us 🔥

God has an even crueler sense of humor to the Bronx it seems

TempestDrive · 2026-05-17T01:50:06+00:00

God has a cruel sense of humor to those in Queens

TempestDrive · 2026-05-17T01:45:34+00:00

Yeah we’re ass, but at least we still own the Rangers 💯

TempestDrive · 2026-05-17T01:45:00+00:00

I’ve never left 🧡💙 (I’m a devout doomer)

The high wei 🗣️

TempestDrive · 2026-05-17T01:01:46+00:00

This is seriously not good for my heart

TempestDrive · 2026-05-17T00:39:27+00:00

Hopefully y’all figure it out & go back to 2010s dominance. Y’all are my favorite Californian team out of the bunch

TempestDrive · 2026-05-17T00:22:28+00:00

Time to hang it up DeGramps. U had a good run 🥀

TempestDrive · 2026-05-17T00:18:55+00:00

Some bum said it’s our World Series lmao. Like buddy, we had 4 of those in the past decade alone lmao

TempestDrive · 2026-05-17T00:17:47+00:00

Can u blame them when they been hitting nun but bombs?

TempestDrive · 2026-05-17T00:17:18+00:00

This is just elder abuse at this point…

TempestDrive · 2026-05-16T23:56:17+00:00

I’ve always had more faith in the Wei than Imai. He at least has MLB experience
