  1. I suppose every player has their one insane hater. How is comparing his .551 OPS to a black hole in the lineup considered insane? Because he hasn't played for six weeks due to injury and this is his first game back?
  2. I suppose every player has their one insane hater.
  3. Still not over. Croatia still only needs one.
  4. Spain really playing with fire here playing so conservatively. Sure, a 0-0 draw puts them through, but they're one goal allowed from being out.
  5. Croatia yes; Spain goes through when they draw. I'd imagine Spain would want to win the group, though, and Italy wins the group with a 0-0 Spain/Croatia draw. I believe I read that Spain wins the group with a win OR a draw, regardless of the other results. Edit: http://www.sbnation.com/soccer/2012/6/18/3094016/group-c-euro-2012-advance-scenarios-spain-italy-croatia-ireland That's wrong. http://www.uefa.com/uefaeuro/news/newsid=1818000.html If Spain and Croatia draw 0-0 and Italy wins, Italy wins group C on tiebreaker c, most goals in games between tied teams (2 to 1 each for SPA/CRO) and Spain advances on overall goal differential ahead of Croatia. EDIT: If Spain and Croatia draw 1-1, Spain wins the group if Italy doesn't win by at least 5 goals, and Croatia would advance if Italy doesn't win by 3. If Spain and Croatia draw 2-2, Spain wins the group and Croatia finishes second.
  6. Croatia yes; Spain goes through when they draw. I'd imagine Spain would want to win the group, though, and Italy wins the group with a 0-0 Spain/Croatia draw.
  7. Italy scored, so one would think Spain and Croatia have to start being more aggressive.
  8. It's a nonsense statement. Everyone eats bad pitching alive. That is what makes it bad pitching.
  9. Does Liriano get to be 25 again as well?
  10. Let's be fair, Ireland hasn't played 3 yet.
  11. The Cubs are 21-21 when they score at least 3 runs. They're 1-21 when they score 2 or fewer.
  12. They've played Boston an unprecedented number of times on Saturday June 16. Yes, I know it was the Braves at the time, but still.
  13. Sweden just the second team eliminated to this point, through two rounds. No team has clinched a spot in the knockout round yet, and only Germany has won both their matches to this point.
  14. So you're saying the problem...is with the offense?
  15. What about when they lead at the end of the 7th inning? Because I have to figure that's going to be the case at this point.
  16. That first goal for Sweden was terrible. And now England just levelled.
  17. Tony Campana does everything except get to first base.
  18. After swinging at over 45% of pitches out of the strike zone in May, Castro has cut down to swinging at 33% of pitches out of the zone in June thus far. Still slightly above the league average on the year of 30%, but much better.
  19. Heh, I love Peanut. http://img.gawkerassets.com/img/17pupkrbhz6v7jpg/original.jpg
  20. In 9 innings Yeah, there was a game back in the 20s where both pitchers pitched 26 inning complete games, and both game scores were in the 140s.
  21. Going to Wrigley Field is a huge tourist attraction. Combine that with the Cubs' fans being apathetic about the team on the field this year, and it's hardly surprising that the fans of AL teams that play at Wrigley this year would be swarming the park.
