OMG SCHWARBER IS ON DECK HERE PEOPLE

If nothing else guarantees another PA for the top of the order

TO ALL THE CUBS HE'S WALKED BEFORE

[DiamondMind]

because you don't like seinfeld (or kanye) but do like miley cyrus and are appropriately ridiculed?

 

mostly seinfeld I think

[Schwarber Fan]

Nice job by Russell there. Split a gap, Dex.

Mets take the lead going into the b8th

[DiamondMind]

second time in two games they've shifted fowler up the middle and been spot on with it

[Gilby]

Did that not look like a line drive into the outfield off the bat? I was pretty confused when they cut to the SS fielding a grounder. Even with the shift, I thought it was way over his head. Edited July 22, 2015 by Gilby

We seem to get burned a lot by the shift, and they're most annoying in spots like that where the guy doesn't really hit the ball somewhere he often does

Don't worry about that team. Worry about the Giants and Pirates.

[Schwarber Fan]

I'm just happy Fowler is squaring it up.

[Andy]

The old "pinch runner takes over on the mound" move

[TruffleShuffle]

is there a statistic for hard-hit outs with 2 outs and runners in scoring position? i feel like we would be leading the league in that.

@robneyer: In the last calendar month, J.D. Martinez has out-homered the Cubs, 14-12.

Thanks Rob

How do you justify sending Schwarber down after what he's done in the majors? He's been magnificent

 

Send literally anyone else down, and play Schwarber anywhere

[BigSlick]

I probably dislike Skip Schumacher more than every other MLB player combined

 

I hate that little flea with my entire being

who said anything about sending him down?

 

montero is probably hurt through close to september at which point schwarber would've been up with the roster expansion

That's because they traded Rizzo.

I don't think he'll be sent down. the question is, what do you do with coghlan? do you try to play him in CF if fowler continues to struggle?

[DiamondMind]

They said two weeks until they even re evaluate montero, so Im not too worried about it at hte moment. roster expansion in sept.

[Guest]

apparently he makes outs sometimes

[BigSlick]

I haven't been able to watch the games Schwarber has caught, how does he look? Does he seem particularly incompetent?

He drops every third pitch but he seems to be calling good games
