[Guest]

[Careless]

Come on, Soler, it's not that cold.

"We are gonna get high after wins"

 

"Especially in Denver"

 

Len and Jim

[Schwarber Fan]

Oh well. Take care of Milwaukee and all will be well.

[Guest]

Starting to wonder if Coke might be in jeopardy of being DFA'd soon with Wada close to returning.

[UMFan83]

Sometimes I have to remind myself that Soler has gotten like a seasons worth of ABs professionally since leaving Cuba and that he's really young

He almost has to be.

[treebird]

What a puke game this is

[UMFan83]

I feel like we dominated the Pirates for most of 7 games and we ended up 4-3

[PosterToBeNamedLater]

This is the second time recently I have turned it over to the Cardinals trying to close it in the 9th with either the tying or winning run at the plate only to see Rosenthal get strike calls for balls 6 inches to a foot off the plate to end the rally.

I was just thinking the exact same thing.

With Rosscup and Wada not being true LOOGYs you could get rid of Germen too.

[sontensei]

well that's dumb

 

wild cards are dumb i dont want one of those

 

I'll take it because even without Wainwright I don't think we're a better baseball team than they are.

 

Agreed, our pitching overall isnt as good as theirs and we K a lot. but i still like our chances to get into the playoffs.
