  1. One good thing, Suzuki might be getting ready to go on one of his two week or so hot streaks.
  2. You're probably correct, who knows, maybe Shaw goes David Freese for the Cubs.
  3. I knew that, meant if does return before the playoffs. Can't remember if Dawson wore something after returning.
  4. I truly wonder, if it more than anything, the weather was the deciding factor? I know people want heap all kinds of praise on the Vikings/Flores/McConnell but, in the end it really was mother nature and not anything the Vikings did. I swear McConnell is the most overrated coach in the NFL - he gets far too much credit when the Vikings succeed and not enough criticism when they don't succeed.
  5. Didn't the Cubs no-hit the Astros in one of those games?
  6. If the swelling goes down and he's able to see okay we he have to wear some kind of a protective shield?
  7. For any of that to materialize, Diamondbacks have to sweep Colorado, just don't see that happening, they've a really good bullpen. A bullpen that has had to go multiple innings a game because their starters are really bad. It's got to be getting close to exhaustion plus, in Coors Field, a recipe for disaster.
  8. Bagent can process and make all the reads this isn't a problem, the issues are his weak arm and he's not much of a scrambler. The offense can still be effective with Bagent, not as explosive but, they'll still score a decent amount of points.
  9. Padres have played a weak schedule the last two weeks. Didn't realize how weak. Last 4 series against teams that are combined 84 games under .500.
  10. Completely luck driven, Swift fumbling on the goal line, Caleb getting hurt while possibly going for another score. They're fake-st of a fake good team, the Packers helped them out a great deal last week.
  11. Looked to be a hamstring.
  12. Yes, too many times the Cubs let the Reds off the hook Friday and came back to bite them.
  13. Cubs broke the seal on the Reds' luck yesterday, they'll win today and possibly clinch a playoff spot.
  14. Too bad Diamondbacks, walked it off, was enjoying them melting away. Just prolongs the inevitable for a day or so.
  15. Watching Yankees-Diamondbacks, in between pitches, trying to figure out what the crowd behind the plate is drinking. Appears to quite a bit of Bud Light, Hard Seltzers and water. Last night thought I saw a few hazy or NE IPA's.
  16. Hey, what you know, no walk-a-poolaza, the better team beat a bad team. Finally, for the first time in a month the Cubs win a Boyd start. Didn't watch, appears he was good? Palencia, with 3 K's, starting to get more swing and miss maybe, rounding into form?
  17. Buy low option, couldn't hurt, bench bat, and, as you said, little bit above replacement level, nothing special. Probably a stronger option to fill out a bench then a Berti or Lopez.
  18. Definitely worth kicking the tires on, probably not 100%, give him and off season, a low buy.
  19. The Boyd-Cubs losing streak ends tonight. The walk-a-palooza ends tonight. The Reds are a bad team however, even bad teams have a chance when you walk the world like Holmes did last night. He had the same issue in the loss to the Marlins.
  20. They may drop this one, still confident they can get the next two, Reds are a dogshit team.
  21. First two looked crush-able don't why he took them.
  22. I'm not his biggest fan but, those were two BS, luck driven hits that last inning.
  23. Typical Reds stuff vs. the Cubs two crappy hitters give them the lead. Suarez and Trevino both suck bad.
  24. Can't really blame Assad, it Holmes throwing a bunch of non-competitive pitches who's the culprit. Game isn't over yet, Reds bullpen is almost as bad as the Cubs.
  25. That BB was frustrating, just let him hit the ball, good chance he's not going to do much.
