    I think there is a little bit of a fire lit under this team as they head to the ASB. It's likely not sustainable, but in a short series, all bets are off. I can see the Cubs winning this game if Shota can keep the ball in the yard.

    Not really. A favorable pitching matchup

    Baltimore has a bad reputation but the area around the park looks great
  5. CubinNY
    Dansby with the 6-4-3.

    I'm secretly hoping they draft Malcom Moore. 1) I love the name 2) They need a fast moving catcher 3) I fell in love with the fluff piece I read about him a few days ago. Before that, the first I heard about him was the rave reviews on his interview.

    THE UMPIRES HAVE NO SAY IN THE WAY MLB CHOOSE TO PLAY BASEBALL.
  8. CubinNY
    Only if one believes in pitcher whisperers.

    lol. If MLB and the players agree to LIDAR based strike zone there is not one thing the umpires can do about it. It's a rule change. We are no longer going to call balls and strikes this way, we are going to call them that way. The umpires can't say we don't like the pitch clock. They can't say we don't like video reviews. It was told to them how the system would work. https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/4410592/2023/04/14/mlb-umpire-rule-changes-opinion/

    The umpires have no say in the rules that baseball decides on. They interpret the rules. They take their orders from MLB. So, the decision will be made by the owners and the players.

    Baseball isn't art. It's a sport with rules.
  12. CubinNY
    what?
  13. CubinNY
    I'll be at the game on Friday (Harry Potter night) and I will see if I can get my son to go tomorrow.
  14. CubinNY
    Good point. The Cubs are in no man's land.
  15. CubinNY
    It might seem counterintuitive, but one of the best things they can do is get rid of the home plate umpire for calling balls and strikes. Once hitters adjust to a true zone, they will learn to leave some of the stuff alone. It will also force pitchers to come into the zone in critical counts.

    , Tallion should bring back a decent prospect If they eat enough of his contract
  17. CubinNY
    I could see Rossy taking over for Boone when he gets fired after the ASB.
  18. CubinNY
    As a more or less casual observer of amateur baseball and the draft I truly admire your interest and dedication.
  19. CubinNY
    This is a winnable game.
  20. CubinNY
    Hey, all we need is Mariano Riveria and one of the best three year teams in the last 50 years. Get to work, Jed.
  21. CubinNY
    lol
  22. CubinNY
    I wouldn't mind seeing them trade Mervis for a lottery ticket.
  23. CubinNY
    I loved that video game.

    Most people who post here agree with his basic assumption, the Ricketts are awful people. Most people agree that MLB ownership is, in a word ******. Most people agree the super rich are destroying the social fabric of this nation. But we don't need a dissertation written in convoluted innuendo that 1) we are all too brainwashed to realize what is happening and 2) have it be wedged into every single topic about baseball. His takes on the minor leagues are usually about some 16 year old hitting in the Dominican Republic or noting that BJ Murrary had a double and only struck out twice. At least Ethan Hearen isn't talked about any longer. He's his own worst enemy.

    Asshat, who said the payroll was too high? No horsefeathers body. That's you living in your world box of you vs. the lemmings who don't understand the rich are destroying Western civilization (a theme of every one of your goddamn brain farts).
