  1. WS pitcher is Bailey Horn Any details on this guy?
  2. Cubs down 2-0 after yet another Votto HR. He's my favorite nonCubs player, behind Bryant starting Saturday.
  3. He's been red hot since basically mid June. Honestly just about every bat in the system got off to a slow start. I don't know how fair it is to just yell "Pandemic" and pretend May didn't happen though. I think the way to look at it is by saying it's progress. It's not where you start it's how you finish (things being equal).
  4. Gymnastic events are an individual sport that they turned into a team sport for reasons. She can do whatever the horsefeathers she wants and no one should say a word about it.
  5. There was nothing wrong with going there. At all. He was out by 15 feet.
  6. Cubs continue to be the dumbest team on the base path in baseball.
  7. 94% contact rate is other worldly. 1 miss every 20 swings. But how selective is he? Half of the top 10 in contact rate are average or below this season. They tend to put a lot of 'pitchers pitches' in play. This was my immediate concern with Vitters when we took him. The reports definitely painted a picture of a guy who could hit anything but would often times be better off waiting for his pitch.If I remember correctly Vitters numbers out of high school were not that impressive. I think he had mono his senior year and people thought that could have been a reason.
  8. Riz is on the inside fastballs.
  9. Those tats are distracting
  10. If Adbert wants to be a starter he’s going to have to figure out how to get lefty out.
  11. You know Votto is going to pimp walk a HR today if he hits one.
  12. I’ve never heard of him before five minutes ago and I like it. Chafin did nothing for me.
  13. It's still good, albeit not as fun. I love the game. The Ricketts are killing my enjoyment of the Cubs.
  14. It is mildly fascinating to me how it's caught on. I think they'll eventually have another name, due to marketing, but there seems to be a groundswell for keeping that name. I ran into some fans (at an Enterprise) and we were just chatting, and they said that it just seemed pretty cool to say the "Football Team" despite the ups and mostly downs of the Snyder era. Sort of giving some swagger back to the fans, particularly if Redskins was definitely out. All that said, I think they'll eventually pick a name for marketing purposes. At the very least, they'll pick a mascot, but I suspect they'll pick a new name. Too much money in it. Washington FT, they do it in socer
  15. Thank goodness Ross is taking this tomato can out.
  16. TFG says "indians" are mad that the MLB changed the name.
  17. Come on people no more Sogaard. This is a day for celebration.
  18. The sport is moving closer and closer to professional league style. Big 10 (whatever, they call it) ACC SEC PAC 10 (whatever, they call it) League Championship Playoff National Championship Everyone else goes to bowls. It kind of forces Notre Dame to pick a league. It would be great if the Super Conferences could just break away from the NCAA.
  19. Happy Eric Sogaard release day. horsefeathers him and his wife.
  20. I like it too. I would have liked the spiders better though.
  21. I had to click on the the twitter link, but that kid looks like he's 13-15 years old. My goodness.
