  1. a "sacrifice hit" is a sacrifice bunt last year, we were dead last in non-pitcher sac bunts top 5 Rangers - 44 Astros - 43 Reds - 37 Royals - 36 4 tied with 35
  2. he's still only bunting primarily in close & late situations, and with the appropriate players it hasn't bothered me too much, yet
  3. hitters with a 53.1% contact rate against Strop so far this year
  4. hey would you look at all these productive outs
  5. so Castro pops out and that Castillo grounder ends the inning with a grounder that would have been a sure DP anyway
  6. i don't really mind that call, but that's mostly because i hate all the following hitters due up
  7. oh, that's a strike...it all makes sense now
  8. pretty sure the ump was just watching Carpenter dive out of the way like a fool instead and just went with it
  9. give this ump a raise for rightly calling that a strike despite the missed location
  10. i was half listening to Cards broadcast because i was too lazy to switch over and they said it was a tribute to his grandfather or some [expletive]
  11. BASEBALL 101 CHAPTER 1: Sometimes Players Slump
  12. this isn't remotely close to being true
  13. I'm really tired of Lake being on an MLB roster and variance's continued propping-up of him. Well, not really, I hope variance props him up forever. "i'm really tired of the guy who's probably been the most productive position player on the team since his call-up being rostered!"
  14. what are you even basing this on? his sub-.300 wOBA projections? they're both likely to be below-average players, but Lake's upside is tangibly much higher than Kalish's "decent 4th OF/bad LF starter"
  15. yeah that's old, i saw a retweet a little while back where he said he was just reminiscing
  16. not a real big fan of letting Lake face a high-whiff pitcher, and sitting him with a pitch-to-contact guy going
  17. Joe Kelly has a career .800/.650 OPS split, but it was dead even last year (in 2012 lefties destroyed him), so who knows what lineup we'll use he has a 2.61 ERA in 7 games (4 starts) against the Cubs
  18. always love that there's also a good one of Crosby more recently http://l.yimg.com/os/publish-images/sports/2014-03-07/4fe535c0-a621-11e3-a531-138b3ea5b14a_crosby-controller-disconnected.gif
  19. and here i was worried he'd walk him again
