* SF:
-- Madison Bumgarner (LHP #40) was put on the DL for bruised ribs and a grade 1 or 2 LEFT shoulder AC sprain. MadBum sustained the injuries from a dirt bike accident yesterday on the Giants' day off in Denver. Expected to be out 6-8 weeks.
-- Ty Blach (LHP #50) will take MadBum's spot in the rotation.
-- Chris Stratton (RHP #34) was called up to fill the roster.


** COL:
-- X-ray for Carlos Gonzalez (OF #5) was negative. CarGo left Wednesday's game against the Dodgers with a bruised right hand after getting hit by a Clayton Kershaw fastball while checking his swing.

Laughing SO HARD at the San Fransisco VaGiants.

Ya know that no one likes you right?

Wew lads

>Smith's Tommy John
>Posey's concussion
>Bumgarner's shoulder

Fuck this season

...

If we're not gonna compete I'd like to see anyone not the doyers to win the division

>Bochy's heart
>Alguacil's face
>Parker's collar bone
>Morse's leg
>Williamson's leg
>Brown's ankle
>?? Span's quads

Reeeeee fuck that new fence

Coors Field is always a good way to give a surge to the offense.

...

Salami time

All these hits

>Ty Blach (LHP #50) will take MadBum's spot in the rotation.
Poor kid's gonna get Cained.

Cool STORY bro hahaha

wew almost

nice play Panik

fuck

C-c-cool

Break out the rye bread, Story time is back!

Wew laddies

whiskey time

fucking shit Pence what the fuck

DINOSAUR ROAR!!!!!

This got really embarrassing lmfao

fun fact...last Rockies in-side-the-park home run was in 2014 at AT&T Park.

finally a fact that is fun

Lol Pence. Learn to run, you bum.

Nah man rain and lights fucked him hard.

We got this guys

I figured it was at least rain when it happened live but I still just wanted to blame him in the moment out of frustration

I'm the only Rockies fan in here (again), huh?

and it was a funny angle...

nope....we should hang out sometime.

If that's you in the picture... no fucking chance

>mfw even if we sweep the Giants the local press will only be talking about the Broncos and muh-draft on Monday.

wait I just caught the tail end of that. Did he not tag first?

You like my hat?

le helmet fly off speed man

revenge for Pagan having one against them at AT&T Park and Blanco almost doing it again against them the next year...at AT&T Park

>even if we sweep the Giants
you shut your checked double dubs whore mouth

That's just life in Denver. The Broncos rule the airwaves 365 days a year, regardless of how bad they are and how good the other teams in Denver are.

>oh shit

check em....

>TFW you see more people repping Rockies around town

>mfw the DU nati gets completely ignored because Tony Romo decides to not become a Bronco.

...

Nobody gives 2 shits about hockey in Denver now that the Avs are below garbage tier. Anyone who does owns a Red Wings or Blackhawks jersey and didn't go to college anyway.

....and they aren't even homeless.

I've seen two Rockies license plates this month. TWO.

my condolence.

>Magus Arena is comfy as fuck though.

Frozen yogurt stand is having a rough night...they look lonely.

It's pretty shitty out 2bh.

Rockies are playoff bound this year, yes or no?

LMAO

le strong offense for one inning and dead for the rest team

Yes. Rocktober 2017.

Have you watched the Rockies any other year?

I always watch, been a fan since I was born. I long for that 2007 season again

>TFW you saw a Rockies game at Mile High

>Is 18
>Too young to have seen rockies greats play
>Has never seen the Rockies at Coors

>Trevor Story remembered how to hit a baseball

>must be a miracle
let's pray for two in a game

we mus'nt even speak of such things yet senpai...

>Story pops it up
>mfw

>tfw you saw a Zephyrs game there...

Damn, we're old.

>all you can hear is Giants fans yelling at the pitcher

yep...I'm "had a birthday at Funtastic Nathans" old

Fucking Gorkys

That was .067 (and going down) Gorkys Hernandez.

Yeah, I conflate them in mind because of their shitiness. Posted before I was realized what I had typed

Vagiants fans btfo

Also quite drunk.

I was actually about to post before you asking who was worse Marrero or Gorkys

Mexican ninjas making the play.

I wonder when Upton will be ready to come up.

What about the Korean dude? I know he doesn't have a lot of experience out in LF but I have a good feeling about him

Marrero got an RBI single and a Walk today.

We're talking overall not just tonight

>Melvin is our future
some intern must have pulled our timeline out of the wastebasket in the writers' room

They're both awful it doesn't matter lel can't even bank on memevin Upton Jr either

Anyone have the .gif of Pence dieing earlier?

you can gauge how drunk the fans are by how loud they sing Charlie Blackmon's walk up song.

Yeah I have no faith

I think of "your love" every time I see coors because of blackmon

Korean dude (Huang (?)) is primarily an Infielder. The OF options are Upton, Morse (rehab), or Williamson (rehab).

>it's a "gonna watch all year with no hope, just love of the game" episode

comfier at least desu, and late summer tickets will be cheaper

He played third during spring training but didn't they put him in LF recently in AAA? I might be mistaken what the fuck do I know

Both awful

BUT Gorkys has been 0 for since his 2 hits in Arizona and is now below .067 AVG. PLUS that 2-run *mis-catch* in center field.

>LF recently in AAA
They might have because of what's happening in the majors. Training him for LF.

Thanks Roylels.

Rockies win!

Haha eat it Giants

It's better than no baseball I guess
Gg cockies

gg pebbles
