  1. I'm watching Comcasts pregame, who did they call Kris Bryant? I don't even know who it was, but it certainly wasn't Bryant.
  2. Really TBS? You think that is Kris Bryant?
  3. Ok, what the hell does "Millenium Kyle" mean on the TBS graphic? Did that have any significance, or was it just a very odd typo?
  4. Legitimate question - Who is a better defensive Right Fielder, Soler or Schwarber?
  5. The lineup is out, and Schwarber isn't in it... 1. Fowler CF 2. Soler RF 3. Bryant 3B 4. Rizzo 1B 5. Castro 2B 6. Jackson LF 7. Montero C 8. Hendricks P 9. Russell 2B
  6. Schwarber has to stay in the lineup tomorrow, right?
  7. Ton of pressure on Hendricks tomorrow. Let's hope the offense gives him some support.
  8. That's been called all game, you have to swing there Yes, it's important to protect a foot off the corner The TBS strike zone is pretty off, it was a lot closer than that
  9. Enough that Hendricks shuts them down with pinpoint control!
  10. Yeah, I don't quite understand the scheduling either. If both NL series were to go 5 games, MLB would really shoot themselves in the foot by putting the Cubs/Cardinals deciding game at 4:37 EST. That just doesn't make sense, especially with the other game being on the West Coast. Why not go with a more traditional 6:00 and 9:00 (or later) start times to get both games on in the evening?
  11. I don't know if anyone has mentioned it yet, but next week's NLDS schedule could really suck with multiple 3:30 starts.
  12. Not that is matters, but Sean Rodriguez is going to get a suspension, right?
  13. Yeah, the camera isn't exactly "hidden" if you know it is there.
  14. I can't help but think of this next series against the Cardinals as kind of a Bulls/Pistons changing of the guard type moment. It is our turn now!
  15. In reference to Jake not having his best stuff - "I'm not sure what game you were watching."
  16. One of the announcers mentioned it mid-game, but I think Garrett Cole really knew they were in trouble immediately after the first inning and it went downhill from there for them.
  17. Apropos of nothing, has a team ever pulled a starting pitcher "switch-a-roo" in a critical game like this? Let's say for example, the Pirates started warming Liriano up immediately after lineups were exchanged and brought him in after the first inning. Then the Cubs would be forced to either stick with their left-handed lineup against the lefty, or replace and lose a few of those hitters early in the game. I know it's stupid, but it seems like it could be an effective strategy in some scenarios.
