  1. With terrible Roach pitching tomorrow, it'd be cool to win this game.
  2. STL is about to lose again. Them sweeping us basically got canceled out.
  3. Wood coming in. Good decision, and great work Arrieta.
  4. Agreed, we have a billion relievers, let someone who hasn't worked a while pitch one. And it can't be good for Ramirez' efforts to get back into form to sit for basically a week after his first outing. And Arrieta's next scheduled start is against St. Louis. No harm in saving a few bullets for that game.
  5. Actually, he's been pretty good (or at least tolerable) for a while now. He had a .733 OPS in June after a .789 in May.
  6. Agreed, we have a billion relievers, let someone who hasn't worked a while pitch one.
  7. If that game were next week, we have to start Arrieta against Cole....not Lester. Right? Yes...and will be twice as awkward when Hammel starts game 1 against St Louis Everyone is sick of bellyaching about David Ross, but in all seriousness, if we aren't going to start Montero for Lester in the playoffs, we probably should avoid putting Ross in the lineup when possible against RHPs, which means not starting Lester as much. The fact that Lester has been objectively worse than either of Hammel and Arrieta makes that an even easier call.
  8. The WC game is going to be played at PNC yet again. Might as well just accept it. And they're going to lose it again. Deal with THAT
  9. Imagine how awesome he's going to be when he figures out how to hit consistently at this level, which I'm assuming he will do since he's 21 years old.
  10. I'm sure they have games with St. Louis left on the schedule, so I wouldn't worry about that.
  11. If we can win the non-Roach starts, that'd be excellent and I'd take whatever happens Saturday.
  12. Excellent. By far my favorite of the magic posts.
  13. Yep, exactly. He's said this verbatim on air. As a former aspiring play by play announcer, I would never let this happen. I would be way too worried that I'd miss calling the best moments in a particular game.
  14. JONATHAN HERRERA IS A GOD AMONGST MEN.
  15. Other teams are really jumping on this 'pitcher batting 8th' stuff, huh.
  16. Bob just called for robot umps after the ump just completely screwed Collmenter on a strike three pitch in the Arizona/LA game.
  17. I love any and all silly things that unite the team. Let's rip off a few more wins and make it a thing.
  18. The Cubs need pitching at the deadline? Psh
  19. Alright, we squeaked out 2 wins with 3 runs. Bring the bats tomorrow, guys.
  20. Major fan of the "[expletive] a traditional closer, I'm playing the matchups" decision by Joe.
  21. I'm all for Ross against lefties, he has to play sometimes. Only against lefties though.
  22. Castro could teach that kid a thing or 2.
