  1. Had never heard that story. Very sad. Hope Javy and his family will be ok.
  2. I remember being pissed when Hendry dumped him off when it appeared his value was at his lowest. He was never any good again, so Hendry got that one right.
  3. have you been there? i kinda see where he's coming from Explain this. Yeah, I'm curious about this too. I'm ok with the board because we're a pro team and revenue is part of the deal, but I don't see how it makes Wrigley 'more intimate'.
  4. have you been there? i kinda see where he's coming from In fairness, I have not. I get what he's saying, but he sounded like a shill. Len has made no bones about being in favor of the Cubs' rebuild in all facets, so he tends to come off like a shill when talking about it.
  5. I think my AdBlock on Chrome is blocking ads. I haven't gotten an MLB.tv ad in forever. oh Roku must block ads too, because I haven't gotten any this season. I wasn't getting any on my MLB.tv Samsung Smart TV App either. Weird. Yep, I haven't gotten any on that either.

  7. I haven't looked at the other years, but it's been a problem or crappy luck for at least the last two. 2014: .223/.303/.341/.644 2013: .218/.309/.360/.669 2012: .231/.323/.358/.681 2011: .232/.313/.376/.689 2010: .262/.340/.421/.761 2009: .241/.340/.376/.716 2008: .278/.367/.452/.819 So they actually weren't terrible in 2010, but yeah, other than that since '08 it's been pretty awful.
  8. I'm certain it's wrong and confirmation bias, but it seems like since 2008 we have been dog [expletive] at hitting with RISP
  9. I predict it won't be off Lance Lynn. Maybe in the 8th if we can get him out of the game.
  10. Not really related, but I listened to the 5th inning of the opening night game, and Pat stayed in the booth and was chiming in while Len did the PBP. Like he was a second color man or something. I expected him to leave, so it threw me off.
  11. Matt Harvey or Cole Hamels Something like this is the correct answer, and they have to have a contract situation comparably favorable to Castro's. There's no reason to trade the guy, so any offering team needs to give them one.
  12. he's the first person I've heard doubting Russell at SS lately. To be fair, calling Castro a better defender than Russell isn't necessarily saying Russell couldn't play SS.
  13. I was going to rant about Lynn coming out of nowhere to be an effective pitcher and then decided this wouldn't be the right time to do so. I was more annoyed that they just lifted him out of the pen and jacked up his innings count with no repercussion, but I guess the jump wasn't that huge (109 to 176).
  14. My fantasy opponent has Arenado, Tulowitzki and Betts, so you could say today hasn't gone great. (Obligatory 'no one cares')
  15. Was really nice to see Motte come out and just shut things down. The bullpen's kickassness last night was definitely the biggest positive to come from the evening.
  16. They're definitely better coached. I do think Wisconsin wins fairly easily, though.
  17. When was the last time we were over .500? 2009 right?
  18. Before or after scoring exactly two runs?
  19. That won't fly. You know STL is the only team allowed to accuse an opponent of cheating.
  20. http://www.nancylankston.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Jack-Black-in-Nacho-Libre.jpg
  21. Even if Wisconsin was going to play like this anyway, I'm going to tell myself that Brey gave them the blueprint to beat Kentucky to make myself feel better.
  22. Tom Izzo sold his soul to the devil. That and they were in by far the worst regional. I still expect them to play an excellent game against Duke, though.
  23. Like pretty much everything said in there. I could really do without walk-up music, but that's not a video board complaint.
