    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.

    I'm certain it's wrong and confirmation bias, but it seems like since 2008 we have been dog [expletive] at hitting with RISP
  3. Andy
    McCarver retired from FOX.

    I predict it won't be off Lance Lynn. Maybe in the 8th if we can get him out of the game.
  5. Andy
    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.
  6. Andy
    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.
  7. Andy
    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.
  8. Andy
    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).

    My fantasy opponent has Arenado, Tulowitzki and Betts, so you could say today hasn't gone great. (Obligatory 'no one cares')
  10. Andy
    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.
  11. Andy
    They're definitely better coached. I do think Wisconsin wins fairly easily, though.
  12. Andy
    When was the last time we were over .500? 2009 right?
  13. Andy
    Before or after scoring exactly two runs?
  14. Andy
    That won't fly. You know STL is the only team allowed to accuse an opponent of cheating.

    Today is stupid. Get 'em Tuesday.

    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.

    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.
  19. Andy
    Like pretty much everything said in there. I could really do without walk-up music, but that's not a video board complaint.
  20. Andy
    Making a last-second change to my team (see above): Cano instead of Rosario.
  21. Andy
    I'm pretty sure they are putting lights on it.
  22. Andy
    Whenever I'm in the bleachers I basically sit directly under where the board is. That'll be a different experience.
  23. Andy
    The Cubs get more media attention than the White Sox whenever they are good, Rodon was drafted last year while Bryant was crushing everything, and Rodon hasn't video-game destroyed spring training like Bryant has. I don't think it's strictly a batter/pitcher issue.
  24. Andy
    What happens to the media and behind closed doors may be very different. This is a players' union solidarity issue. Arrieta just Tweeted a joke earlier today about bro-hugging Bryant and gaining opposite-field pop. It's just Twitter, granted, but that's probably not something you do unless you like the guy.
  25. Andy
    Don't forget that Starlin Castro is lazy and has concentration issues.
