  1. The Marquee streaming app is pretty decent overall, but it's the only app that I have that refuses to sign off on its own. I have to restart my Fire Stick to close out of the app. Oh, and I also have to restart my Fire Stick before I stream Marquee, or it will inevitably screen freeze or lock up on me. To be fair, my Fire Sticks are pretty old at this point. But, they are updated. Still worth the $20 a month I'm paying for it.
  2. That is why I'm asking. He didn't appear to be with the team last night. Maybe that was moving day for him? Now he has Thursday to get acclimated.
  3. He has to know his best chances of leaving the Marlins is pitching well, even if there is nothing inspiring about playing for a last place team. What is different about his peripherals right now that has his stats suffering so badly?
  4. Shaw looks like a legit great fielding 3b. How many reps at 3rd does he have in the system? I thought he mostly played 2nd. Is Cabrera in Iowa? When can we expect him to get promoted?
  5. Very good chance of passing some of these teams after the Colorado series. All reactions:
  6. How did Rick Mears do? Also, totally a Fred thread.
  7. I'm not annoyed by Cohen at all. And I also think JD seems to click with him a bit more lately. Probably because of the more regular work together. Not sure how many people have worked with JD over the years, but I'm sure it gets tiring training rookies or having some of the same conversations over and over with new people.
  8. I say them to. I just don't document them in the game threads very often. And that's not a knock on anyone. I just think it's funny reading them when the game turns around. It sucks reading them when the suckage continues and they put up an L.
  9. Funny reading all the doom bonering in these threads. This team loves embarrassing all you negative Nancy’s.
  10. They snapped the Sunday skid this past Sunday.
  11. That grand slam was confusing. I was watching with no sound and people over for cocktails, and PCA just stood there and no one reacted. Couldn't see the ball at all, and it was only when the Cubs bullpen guys started jumping up and down before I had any clue it was gone. Really surreal and unique moment.
  12. If PCA learns to quit taking failure out on his bat, he'll become the greatest player in baseball history and the the true definition of perfection. Hell, he's even let Happ catch some balls in Left/Center since Happ got mad at him.
  13. That was perfectly timed and loud. Even got my wife to look up from her book. I think they showed CB Bucknor at 1b last night. Was he the clown behind the plate on Monday? Might have been the worst strike zone I've seen all year.
  14. Joe Thuney signed a 2 year extension. He'll be paid $51 or the next 3 years. That creates a lot of stability at 4 of the 5 Oline positions. That makes me happy.
  15. It will be even better when Tucker gets back from vacation.
  16. Yes. More runs so there won’t be save opportunities.
  17. His curve ball has nearly a 40% whiff rate. He’s got the potential to be a very solid starter if he gets more comfortable with his change up.
  18. He definitely needs to work on some secondary pitches. Seemed like the Marlins players were sitting fastball the entire first inning.
  19. When season records and lifetime records are easily broken, you have a flawed history of QB's. I have no issue with the term "where QB's go to die". Sure, they haven't developed anyone, nor have they done much to secure the position with a premium talent. Cutler sits alone at the top of the standings of most Bears passing yards by 9000 yards. Prior to Cutler, 14,686 yards was the most by a Bears QB EVER! And that was from a time when passing was practically a second thought.
  20. Dude had the 6th lowest K rate in MLB, but Ks 3 in the first inning.
  21. I’m so over the Berti/Lopez/Brujan/Turner experiment at 3b.
  22. I'm so over the Berti/Lopez experiment. They need to bring up Shaw now.
