5/6 Dusty Baker's Nats (The Rural Scherzer) @ Cubs (Lackey) 1:20 CDT CSN/MLBN

[Clem Fandango]

yeah, i realize there are plenty of ways to get baez a bunch of abs

 

He just has one huge one.

 

Why have a six pack when you can have a keg, amirite?

[mul21]

I really enjoy the inferiority complex thread, aka the other games thread over at GRB.

 

omg CardRed is like my favorite poster ever. I encourage everyone to check out the last 3 "Other Games" threads there. Oh well nevermind I'll just post my favorites all from CardRed:

 

5/3:

Looks like Szczur is hurt now. They are dropping quickly for the Cubs

 

Pirates getting rocked again. Looks like golden boy will be 6-0

 

5/4:

(Comment about Cubs being 5-4 during day games)

And never give Lester run support. They lose today, plus Bucs won't get swept at home.

 

Our pitching is way better than Bucs. We need to get D buttoned up and bats more consistent

 

K well I was wrong there. Damn they outscore Bucs 20-5

 

(Comment about Cubs on pace to allow 400 runs)

Crazy

 

They will wear down and start getting bombed

 

5/5:

I hope Washngton not only sweeps them but bombs their staff

 

Not for long, their pitching is going to wear down.

 

Cubs 32-17 in Hendricks 49 career starts. Make no sense. He's terrible.

 

I've watched the dude pitch, he doesn't have good stuff. I don't get it

 

Cubs falling apart Fowler ejected. Madden will be gone by end of game

 

Nats will take 3/4 in this series.

 

(comment that the Cubs are winning)

Not for long. Nats will get to Hendricks

 

What the hell Nats.

 

And the wheels come off

 

2 hits against Hendricks?

 

I enjoyed his resignation to my explanation of the purpose Hendricks serves and why he's good.

I'm not sure if that guy is a complete moron or a genius troll.

The Schadenfreude is so sweet this year.

Dusty Baker talked to reporters in Kansas City on Wednesday about what Revere brings to the lineup.

 

"We have speed on the bases but we just haven’t been able to get the speed on the bases," Baker said, as quoted by Washington Post writer James Wagner:

 

Yogi Berra he ain't.

[UMFan83]

Like I said in yesterday's game thread, people are practically begging for things to complain about right now.

The incessant whining about the complaints in game threads (most of which appear to me to be tongue in cheek anyway) is far more annoying to me than any complaints themselves.

 

so meta

 

the complaining about the whining about the complaining is even farther more annoying than any complains themselves.

 

this is still better than the usual 'complain about the complaining about the irrational negativity' battle

[fallacy]

Apparently the wind is blowing out pretty hard today. With Lackey pitching i'm expecting us to give up at least 6 runs. Of course we're going to score 15 with 6 homers though

I'm guessing speed on the bases clogs the bases in his mind.

I am very in favor of Ben Revere being healthy and playing for the Nationals, heck, get that speed on over Bryce there, Dusty Edited May 6, 2016 by BigSlick

how much would it cost to cryogenically freeze myself until October?

And miss the most fun part? October is going to turn me into a blubbering mess. This is the part we enjoy.

To be fair none of us have really experienced rooting for the most perfectest, bestest sports team ever.

that might be the thing he said that makes the most sense

[Omar]

if the Nats want speed they should just trade for Josh Hamilton

The Cubs will play a split doubleheader against the Brewers on Aug. 16 and face the Braves on July 7 to make up two April games that were postponed because of rain.

Actually, I think CardRed may be a troll.

[Omar]

lacking you horsefeathering idiot

[UMFan83]

Lackey is an ugly stupid man

[Banedon]

There's gonna be homers today.

[Andy]

On reflection I like the wind blowing in better

[Tim]

Oy...Back to Lackey's wife being a saint.

[David]

Can't decide how I feel about that inning

[Banedon]

Solo homers do not scare me.

[Cubswin11]

I mean if that ball got out we should hit at least 5 HR's today

[CubInOK]

Maybe the wheelchair Josh Hamilton is in right now has made him faster.
