DeJesus would have caught that

[Hairyducked Idiot]

If we had robot umps, we could stop the game for 10 minutes right now.

shark looking good

[Sammy Sofa]

Man, all of the Pirate's swinging strikeouts have been hilariously terrible.

[Hawk4Hall]

AJ Burnett looks like Joe Dirt.

[Irrelevant Dude]

I hate to hear people suggest that the NL will eventually have a DH.

 

A part of the baseball fan in me will certainly die if that happens...

[Banedon]

Do we not have any minor league middle infielders that can do a better job than that?

 

We do (Logan Watkins).

 

I know nothing about him.

 

I'm sold.

[RammyFanny]

That breaking ball looks good...and I think a little different than I remember. But I probably just don't remember very good.

Robot umps and an NL DH would be like, 12,000 Christmas mornings rolled into one for me.

I'm all for the DH in the NL. Especially if Vogelbach continues to develop. ;)

I like the robot ump idea on its own merits but love it all that much more to hear kyle fret about not being able to celebrate in real time

[Banedon]

Cy Burnett

 

7.71 ERA and down 2-0. Worst...Cy....Ever.

[jersey cubs fan]

is 400 hits too far?

[Guest]

Starlin with another hit!

[Guest]

yay starlin

[Sammy Sofa]

400 hits.

[Hawk4Hall]

Castro is batting 2.000

 

Now time for another Rizzo homer.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

If Castro and Harper both hit 1.000, but Harper hits all homers and Castro hits all singles, how much more can Harper make before his value is the same?

[jersey cubs fan]

Castro is batting .2000

 

something like that

Oh God, I forgot about his "I DON'T HOW TO FEEL ABOUT TOUCHDOWNS" spiel. That was hysterical.

I fixed it. Was just too excited to type.

What the 2nd inning of an April Cubs-Pirates game really needs is a 10-minute delay to look at a blooper down the line and sitll not be conclusive.

 

Actually, robot umps would be awesome. instant replay sucks.
