    Good start

    I remember when he went through his control problems watching him in Jackson TN throw the ball over the catchers head to the backstop several times. I don’t know many who have come back from the type of control problems he had.

    The Cubs are likely to make the playoffs, at the very least. If they make it into the playoffs, they will need to be playing great baseball at the time they start, have a solid top-three pitching rotation, and a lockdown closer. So.. They need a TOR pitcher. The horsefeathers Brewers aren't going to win every game. But they do have the ingredients to go far in the playoffs. I don't think their offense is good enough, but let's see what happens at the deadline.

    I think Wheat might be dead.
  5. CubinNY
    Exactly. That is the first test when they get to MLB. So many prospects never pass. He'll still have to prove he can catch up to big boy gas, but we know he can do it at the 99th percentile for his age/competition.

    Taco will back down.

    Does Duran have a golf grip on the bat?
  8. CubinNY
    These things happen. It just sucks after Horton's start.
  9. CubinNY
    I don't know what any of that means. Pressley doesn't miss bats. When you don't miss bats, it makes it more likely that these things happen. They can't not use him, so whatever. It doesn't matter because Pamernace shat the bed too.

    DFA, DFA, DFA,

    Show me in this doll where the Red Sox touched you. Kade is going to step up and the Cubs are going to sweep
  12. CubinNY
    Cardinals are going to be selling
  13. CubinNY
    What a mfing game! The Cubs are hot
  14. CubinNY
    The runner was watching PCA and not the ball. There is definitely a multiple control of events, but good on PCA.
  15. CubinNY
    12 innings is plenty. Most of the fans will have left by then anyway.
  16. CubinNY
    If avoiding it ruins the integrity of the game, is it worth it? That's an individual opinion. Mine is it is not worth in a game where a 6-4 record across 162 games gets you to the playoffs.
  17. CubinNY
    You just asked the question you horsefeathers dipsit
  18. CubinNY
    Go look it up, dipsh!t.
  19. CubinNY
    Who in the horsefeathers can the ump be looking directly at the ball from three feet away and call that fair?
  20. CubinNY
    Shaw hitting into a lot of bad luck.
  21. CubinNY
    Nor did they buy a ticket to see a loss. It's baseball; there are 162 games. Sometimes a tie is the proper outcome.
  22. CubinNY
    why?
  23. CubinNY
    Sure, but short series baseball is fundamentally different than the regular season. That's what I was getting at.
  24. CubinNY
    The law of unintended consequences at work. Baseball is such a different sport. I think the regular season should be at least as important as the postseason. It should matter more (my opinion, obviously). At first glance, I dislike the idea of wildcards in baseball because it rewards mediocrity, but at the same time, if it also results in teams building for multi-year success, that's a positive outcome. I don't think it addresses the fundamental problem of "small market" teams losing marquee players to free agency, though. Only revenue sharing will achieve that, and I don't see people with the Ricketts mindset willing to share the wealth.
  25. CubinNY
    It's not a gimmick so much as a way to speed up the process. I'm perfectly fine with a tie game in baseball. How often does it happen?
