  1. why is locke still in the pirates' rotation? they have to call up taillon or glasnow to replace him at this point, right?
  2. doesn't seem like shawon dunston jr really justified that $1.275 million bonus he received.
  3. i looked at the box score of the cards' win tonight. man do they ever have a lot of guys who are playing over their heads offensively. fatt adams, carpenter (to some extent), diaz, moss, their backup catcher, some random utility infielder. pretty funny that they're still 10.5 games out of first.
  4. Is Clayton Richard still around to try to prevent the Cubs from getting overconfident by having too good a W-L record?
  5. I'm not sure that Hendricks actually threw any strikes to Eickhoff in that at bat.
  6. Cubs are doing their part to send the Phillies to a W-L record more representative of their actual talent level.
  7. 4 balls in a row hit at 90+ mph. This guy is not really fooling anybody.
  8. According to CubsUmp, this ump has made 6 bad calls on pitches tonight. All 6 have gone against the Cubs.
  9. also, this could be the second time in a week that a team with a 99.9%+ chance of winning ended up losing.
  10. mariners' 7th inning: Ryan Buchter pitching Shawn O'Malley struck out swinging Nori Aoki reached on an infield single Franklin Gutiérrez at pinch hitter Franklin Gutiérrez walked, Nori Aoki to second Robinson Canó hit by pitch, Nori Aoki to third, Franklin Gutiérrez to second Nelson Cruz struck out swinging Kyle Seager singled to right, Nori Aoki and Franklin Gutiérrez scored, Robinson Canó to third Brandon Maurer pitching Dae-Ho Lee singled to right, Robinson Canó scored, Kyle Seager to third Chris Iannetta singled to left, Kyle Seager scored, Dae-Ho Lee to second Stefen Romero at pinch hitter Stefen Romero singled to right center, Dae-Ho Lee scored, Chris Iannetta to third Matt Thornton pitching Shawn O'Malley singled to center, Chris Iannetta scored, Stefen Romero to second Nori Aoki singled to shallow left center, Stefen Romero scored, Shawn O'Malley to third Nori Aoki stole second Franklin Gutiérrez singled to center, Shawn O'Malley and Nori Aoki scored Robinson Canó grounded out, second to first all 9 runs scored with 2 outs, on 7 consecutive singles.
  11. and now the mariners are leading 13-12. :lol:
  12. the padres took a 12-2 lead over the mariners in the 5th inning. it's now tied at 12 in the top of the 7th.
  13. in tonight's game: -cervelli left with discomfort in his foot after being HBP in the second inning. -mccutcheon left with thumb discomfort after lining out. -david freese got HBP and left with an injured hand. -jordy mercer got HBP and had to leave the game with elbow discomfort.
  14. looks like bad carls jr. showed up tonight.
  15. hopefully he just has diarrhea or something.
  16. i'll jump in on the "pinch hit for lester, hand over to fresh rondon to face the heart of the order" bandwagon here.
  17. i think baez is replacing soler as the "this guy is up, time to go to the bathroom" hitter on the cubs.
  18. contreras is top 5 in the PCL in OPS, which is pretty cool because he's a 24 year old catcher who doesn't play his home games in colorado springs or tuscon or reno.
  19. i'm not sure that i can take another 3 2/3 years of zobrist's walk up music.
  20. http://m.mlb.com/news/article/181523408/brandon-moss-pinch-hit-hr-ties-club-record we are only ONE-THIRD of the way through the season!
  21. at this rate i feel like there is like a 90% chance that vogelbach gets traded to the AL by the trade deadline.
