Other Games Week of 8/15

[Cubswin11]

Strasburg just gave up 7 runs in the first to the Rockies in Colorado on ~50 pitches. So of course Dusty sends him back out for the 2nd inning.

for the love of god, please let us face the Nats in the NLCS

 

I know Dusty will just horsefeathers it up

[Cubswin11]

1.2 IP, 9 Runs and 70+ pitches for Strasburg as Dusty finally took him out

They have sucked mightily since the break. The Dodgers starters are putting up around. 5.00 era since the break and have still passed SF in the standings

9-20 since the break, worst in the league. Went in 6.5 up on LA and they're 1.5 back now. They were 3 games better than the Cubs and are now 10.5 behind the Cubs.

[Thusly Boned]

Man, the Mets are...not good.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Man, the Mets are...not good.

 

I'm pretty bummed the Dodgers won so I couldn't post that the Mets were as close to the Phillies as they were to the wild card lead.

[NonProfitCow]

Man, the Mets are...not good.

That was evident in January.

The Mets, Giants and Dodgers all taking turns being bad makes me feel really good at the NL. All of these things can only play incremental roles in our chances in the playoffs, but I'll take increments, damnit

[Thusly Boned]

This Giants/Mets matchup feels like the baseball equivalent of two people trying to clamber over each other to escape the sarlaac pit.

[TMan92]

Gyorko. Seriously.

[soccer10k]

Kendall Graveman just threw a Maddux against the White Sox.

[Clem Fandango]

The Indians and Tyler Naquin just hit a walk off inside the park home run off the Jays.

The Orioles set an MLB record today by hitting 4 HRs before recording an out in their game against Houston.

 

...they lost 15-8.

[philosophizer75]

If it doesn't get rained out, I'm gonna be at the orioles-astros game today. Apparently Gurriel is debuting today, so that's cool.
