Starlin really is a poor man's Bruno Mars

[Guest]

I'm intrigued in Anderson on the Cubs next year but this is why I think I'd rather pass on him.

[Sammy Sofa]

Starlin/Javy dinner date had to be sexy

 

Castro learned from Soriano how to treat the new guy.

nice

 

Also, I love watching broadcasts scramble to fill time

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Oh man a crummy lefty. If Javy doesn't homer and homer far, I am disappoint.

[Brian]

ok, I'm dumb who is that standing to the right (his left) of Castro?

[ctcf]

Let's hear Josh Vitters thoughts on the Javy callup

[treebird]

castro and rizzo both have the same little notches cut into their hair.

[imb]

I think my tv is messed up, rizzo's face looked all smushed up

[Brian]

come on and groove him one, it will be the greatest accomplishment of your career to be the guy that gave up Javier Baez's first homer

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Stupid BIP variance

[expletive] YOU

>watch him ground out to 3rd

 

Meh.gif

That whole inning reminded me why baseball is the worst sport ever.

Morales is touching all over the place and looks to have a smudge on his left sleeve and his hat. I think he's doctoring the ball.

This home plate ump needs to be one of the first to get replaced by a robot ump. Strike zone is all over the place.

Didn't he have 10 minutes to doctor the ball up when he took forever to "warm up"?

[SouthSideRyan]

in 30 years when Javi is telling his grandchildren about his debut, he will not recall the name of the starting pitcher who took the mound that day

Nor probably anyone else on the team except Rizzo, Castro and Alcantara. Hell, he probably won't remember the manager.

 

He won't remember those things in 30 minutes

[Brian]

JAVY STAY AWAY FROM LAKE

[Agony and Ivy]

Patrick Mooney has so much charisma.

[Schwarber Fan]

Probably one of the most watched Cubs games of the season and they're getting shut out at Coors Field with one hit. That's about right.

[Friendly Confines]

gam thread ran out of steam quickly
