The minor league season is over, I believe, so there's no opportunity cost, but yeah I don't get it either. -
Great time to crap the bed twice in a row with one of the worst pitchers in the sport set to start tomorrow
-
My 9 were

9/9, 105 score. Possible to kind of cheat the system if you know what squares to put certain guys in. Related - anyone know how to put spoiler tags on mobile? The option doesn't come up for me.

I agree, could be some recency bias in play but facing the Braves was utterly terrifying even though we managed to take 2 of 3.

For now he's part of the bottom recesses of the pen, but yes.

Excellently timed dong by Happ, you can now dig deep into the bottom recesses of the pen for the 9th.

This Wicks guy is good, I tells ya

Well, that would've been much more fun with 2 on than 0 on, but a lead's a lead.

College Football - "Week Zero" and Week 1 (Aug. 26-Sept. 3)

I guess it will take Matt Rhule longer than 1 game to wring out the lose-every-close-game DNA of that program. -
They needed 12/15 votes, and according to ESPN got exactly 12. Clemson, Florida State and N Carolina, who all want out of the league, voted no. NC State had been voting with Carolina but apparently flipped. This is all so stupid.

I think the late-blooming thing is a big part of it, but writ large this is probably the biggest factor. From college football I've learned that in so many words, athletic departments consider it almost a failure if games fully sell out because that means they didn't charge enough for tickets. That dynamic is surely in play with MLB franchises too.

I'm not as optimistic as you, it's more likely teams didn't value the 3 or 4 starts they might get from him over the PR hit they would take for claiming him. But a win's a win, I guess.

Have I mentioned how much I horsefeathers love the Nico/Swanson infield defense?
-
God I love Cody Bellinger
-
Ugh.
-
Good God even Alzolay isn't immune
-
Noncompetitive pitches are a great way to make me hate you
-
The Nico/Swanson infield is swoon-worthy
-
This went south in a hurry
-
Pitching in the bigs gets a little easier when the ump gives you an extra 2 inches in each quadrant of the strike zone, but whatever
-
That was about as clutch as a CS gets. Gomes is something else
-
It might be because I'm looking for it but there seem to be an annoying number of big time ABs these days with Happ up where I would really prefer Cody
-
That's one hell of a job by Steele tonight.
-
In my head it's probably horsefeathers like that that's been happening for the Brewers this entire win streak
