  1. Even when Carolina does something halfway sensible like draft Xavier Legette, they have to do something stupid like trade down 59 picks later in the draft for a guy that was definitely going to be available at 33 to do it.
  2. Funnily enough, PCA just equaled Baez' HR total for the season
  3. He probably went back a little bit closer to first than he should have, but that's not exactly a scenario you're working on very much, so *shrug*
  4. Bregman seemingly lives to make me want to punch him in the head
  5. Would really hate to see this performance by Assad wasted.
  6. No kidding. I'm sure there was more to it but it sure felt at the time like it was a 'well, the Cubs are gonna suck for a while and the Sox are on the uptick and I want to call playoff games' thing and...that did not work for him.
  7. Narrative isn't reality but the Cubs' quickly bouncing back from repeated kicks to the groin in April has been pretty cool
  8. Apropos of nothing, that officially gives USC 8 Heisman Trophies, which breaks their tie with Notre Dame and Ohio State for the most all-time.
  9. Absolutely confirmation bias on this one but it feels like the Cubs' track record of guys getting injured literally just as they are starting to catch fire at the plate is unmatched.
  10. It strikes me as annoying that Houston, for whom so little has gone wrong in so long, has by far the most normal looking versions of these stupid uniforms that I've yet seen
  11. No, those were 2 different years. Soriano walkoff was 09 (shamelessly adding that I was there) and Berkman's mad dash was, I believe, in 08, and late at night at that. Houston's last Wrigley visit was 2013.
  12. FWIW I just checked and the Cubs are 7th in average with RISP, but I can't find any specific splits on successfully plating runners from 3rd with under 2 outs. The Brewers, naturally, are way ahead of everyone in average with RISP at .344.
  13. Exchange lately with almost every year of my life but either you're right or we're really pessimistic
  14. This is the kind of crap that matters less if you don't piss away games like yesterday's first one
  15. Monster HR aside, Hendricks looks very sharp today.
  16. I have no idea whatsoever why he's hitting so high in the order
  17. Giving away these early scoring chances does not bode well
