  1. I wonder what our record would be if we could crap out decent relievers like St. Louis, Oakland, Tampa Bay, etc. seem to be able to do. Still bad, I'm sure, I just wonder.
  2. So we can flip him for prospects after he inevitably saves 20 games with a 1.32 ERA for us by July
  3. When was the last good FA reliever we got? If you don't count the smoke and mirrors we got from Gregg last year.
  4. Do other teams run on Molina in big spots or is it just us? Because we sure do it a [expletive] of a lot
  5. Maybe if we held a GIDP tourney in spring training we'd be as shitty at that as we are at bunting
  6. I mean it was a [expletive] play but that was a really high flyout and it actually worked out better for us because it got Wong off the bases. Castro was looking at Wong and that's why he dropped it, I don't think it's anything to worry about
  7. infield fly is only 1st and 2nd or bases loaded Huh, I didn't realize that. I thought it was if there was a force at any base. It's not because in this case the offensive team isn't hurt by the drop. With runners on 1st and 2nd every IF could just intentionally let every pop-up drop in and get 2 outs
  8. IF fly requires runners on 1st and 2nd
  9. Maybe this time we'll score some runs for Shark?
  10. Deckhairs, Titanic, etc. Seems like anyone we put in the pen is going to suck anyway. That said, I agree, get rid of either or both.
  11. What a tool. "How dare you ban us for blatantly failing to even pretend to try to graduate our players!" Then again, I couldn't and still can't [expletive] stand Calhoun, so that colors my opinion a bit.
  12. Yeah, but just wait until our top-10 pick in the 2016 draft gets to the big leagues sometime late in 2018
  13. The "Lance Berkman is scared of lightning" game comes immediately to mind
  14. I fell into a YouTube rabbit hole watching old Sosa clips the other day after David's post and saw one, don't remember when, that barely snuck into the basket on a line. I also distinctly remember a Sammy rainstorm HR against the White Sox (again barely snuck out) that was essentially a walk-off because everyone in the stadium knew there would be no next inning.
  15. They're going to win the division, so it's probably best to just not worry about all their bull [expletive] until the playoffs.
  16. I'm probably on the low end of income for people on this board, granted, but $2500 is an absolutely stupid amount to spend on a ring. (I spent just under $900, before anyone asks)
  17. "Guys, why would we be sad? Everyone's happy about the minor leagues. Oh yeah, I guess there's the other part, too." "Our morale is so high as we continue to put up historically awful performances in the only area that counts."
  18. Anything more than 74 would surprise me. I'll guess 67.
  19. With Pat Hughes' call too. That makes me feel things. You quoted the wrong link, but yeah that Game 1 homer was at the time one of the most unbelievable events of my life. And naturally Dusty fucked it all up in extras.
  20. Oh Jesus, I forgot about [expletive] Braun.
  21. Seriously, how in holy hell can anyone put 2008 into anything resembling the "dark ages"? That was, and probably always will be, the single best sports team I've ever followed day to day.
  22. Sammy, but Aramis and Z aren't far behind. Mark Prior was my favorite of the 2003 team but obviously he wasn't around long after that.
  23. If they rule that Northwestern athletes aren't students, that means that they think pretty much no college athletes are students.
