  1. It's the old "coverage starts" gambit. The game starts at 8:08
  2. Definitely use somebody else, no reason to burn through Keller for a 2nd inning when he'll likely be needed Saturday
  3. Happ is hitting the ever loving horsefeathers out of the ball tonight Everyone is getting hot now
  4. Durbin with a couple nice reminders tonight of why Matt Shaw was playing even before he was hitting
  5. Pomeranz looked totally locked in from the get go there. Go get Yelich in the 8th and we're rolling.
  6. Fair, I forgot about the walk off hit, but man staying locked on that curveball was impressive
  7. Is that the best piece of hitting of Shaw's career? It has to be right?
  8. Biggest batter of the game now (captain obvious)
  9. Leave Boyd out there, he hasn't even gone through the lineup twice yet
  10. I 100% anticipate that happening but we did get 2 guys on in the only inning played since so far
  11. If there's one thing all baseball fans have in common, it's "we haven't scored enough runs in a while so let's put in players who all available evidence suggests are likely to produce even worse results." I'm as annoyed Tucker is now a singles hitter as anyone but shoving the rookie Ballesteros in after not taking a meaningful AB in two weeks or whatever is a hilariously stupid idea. Putting in Willi Castro, who has been an absolute travesty from pretty much the moment he put on a Cubs uniform, is somehow an even worse one.
  12. I think so too, but if he does start Peralta it definitely carries some risk if he kerplunks and they have no great options for Game 5.
  13. He was in the front row with Zobrist for a game earlier this season, so I'm guessing yes.
  14. I can't find a specific article that confirms this, but I think if there's only one game tomorrow (regardless of matchup) it's at 7 pm ET.
  15. Do you think you're talking to some higher authority than a forum of unconnected baseball fans?
  16. While approving CBAs that not only incentivize them to act that way, but also give their small market opposition advantages (extra draft picks) that they don't have, leaving them only one advantage (money) that they choose to underutilize.
  17. The updating of Wrigley has made and will make them a metric horsefeathers ton of money. The fact that it also made Wrigley a better place to watch games was a side benefit.
  18. Seeing Chourio reminds me how horsefeathers stupid it is that he had a hamstring injury and is back hitting 3 run jacks the next game while Tucker's calf effectively rendered him useless for over 6 weeks I'm sure there's a rational explanation but I'm pissed
  19. If I thought this absurd run of nonsense Milwaukee is on would go all the way through I'd be fine with it. I might even root for it! But I know this ends with LA completely crushing them in the next round as all the stupid breaks they're getting against us start going the other direction.

    NFL Week 5

    I've long since passed the time where I have to accept the halftime show isn't for me anymore because I'm too old. More often than not anymore it's people whose work I know nothing about.

    NFL Week 5

    As others have noted, I don't think anything will make Young physically capable of being a legit good NFL QB the way Mayfield and Darnold were and are. I do think there may be meat on the bone for a competent franchise to make him viable, though.

    NFL Week 5

    Speaking of promising QBs who were ruined by terrible coaching Carolina literally had both these players in 2022 and did jack horsefeathers with them
