  1. According to Facebook's little update thing, it's 1-0 Cubs at the end of the 3rd. Weird.
  2. Meh, he's a legit prospect. We've been over this. And his adjustment period is coming.
  3. Question 1: As Keith Law would say #smrtbaseball Question 2: No effing clue.
  4. He's scared of his own shadow.
  5. Who has a ticket they can leave at will call for me tomorrow? I'm certainly willing to pay a fair price for it.
  6. The relievers in general seemingly have an absurd number of decisions this year.
  7. I don't know if those count as meatballs, I feel that needs its own term. Cardinals fans
  8. How in the hell does a hotel room in Schaumburg not get Comcast? I literally cannot watch this game in my hotel room.
  9. I was just going to say hey Costas easy on Farmer there buddy. Granted, all I can think of was this and his bizarre rant about Strop, but it's like he has a [expletive] vendetta against relievers just based on these two games alone. Yeah same. I think he's just a dick. Which is worse I don't think he's trying to insult guys it's just him, a giant douche. Well, he is a BFIB, so it probably comes pretty naturally to him.
  10. He has trouble with the pitches up in the zone huh Costas?
  11. Meh, Cards did the same thing the inning before and didn't get him in either. He was referring to the Cardinals pitchers historically high strand rate Right, but that particular situation happens pretty regularly. It's not like the situation they've got now with the bases loaded and 1 out. Wiggling out of this would be a great example of their absurd luck so far. Crawford hit a slow roller to 3rd and got a run in though.
  12. Meh, Cards did the same thing the inning before and didn't get him in either.
  13. That whole Lucchino Theo thing worked out pretty well for them, eh?
  14. Wow, Belt just struck out on a pitch that I'm 99% sure was on the chalk of the RH batter's box. Just awful.
  15. Vogelsong is miraculously through 3 shutout innings. Not surprisingly, Lance Lynn hasn't allowed anything yet either.
  16. Go look at where the cubs rotation ranks in baseball. I still think you're ridiculous. I also think it's ridiculous that you think one awful start changes that. He hasn't made it through the 6th inning in like a month, so it's not just one start. That, combined with his history of second half struggles makes the argument even more valid. I would have liked to see more as well, but not at the prohibitive price it sounds like was being asked.
  17. MLBN didn't show the front side replay until after the catch and I was thinking you guys were all nuts. What the hell is wrong with Hammel tonight?
  18. As bad as that looks, the predictor thing makes it look like it won't hit Wrigley until around 9;00, so they can likely get in a bunch of innings before it hits.
  19. Piniella was more pregnant http://chrisblattman.com/files/2011/07/facebook_like_button_big1.jpg
  20. I'm semi-sensitive to it because one of my kids has been gluten-free for about 3 years. She had digestive problems (bad constipation) which lead to behavior problems (she always felt bad, so she was often moody and unpleasant). Eliminating gluten solved the physical problem, which greatly improved the behavior problem, and we went from something that was a constant source of stress to an afterthought. Sure, there are a bunch of douche-bags who have taken to it like every other fad diet, but Bernie Lincicome can eat a bag of dicks for his dismissive and condescending statement (particularly to open an article, which I'm sure only got worse) Of course there are people who have legitimate problems with gluten, but it's like maybe 1% of the population.I have a good friend who was able to stop wearing glasses after they discovered they had celiac. The clowns who literally have no clue what gluten is or that it's likely the reason most of the human population has survived as long and well as it has makes me want to throat punch every damn one of them. Gluten is delicious and amazing (for most people).
  21. 1995 to 2011 is 17 seasons (no playoffs in 94 due to the strike). You say 5 wild card teams won, so that's 5/17 or 29%. Considering that the other 3 "seeds" only won 12 /17, I'd say no, it wasn't harder then to win as a wild card, which is one of the reasons they added the extra WC and the play in game, so the team with the best record actually got a real advantage for being the best team over 162 games.
