  1. I was just going to say it's amusing that the Cubs were actually hitting well with RISP for like a minute and a half and the baseball gods were like, "Nope, that horsefeathers isn't happening" and they've regressed at warp speed
  2. Miguel Amaya is in the lineup today (not Barnhart) and Hosmer is on the bench, so the Cubs are actually playing 9 on 9.
  3. Remember when Jed heavily implied the reason Mervis and Morel aren't up yet was that things were going fine as is? Guess what Jed. Not going fine anymore.
  4. As Hosmer bounces into another routine double play
  5. I'm sure some of their fans are probably blaming Contreras for everything as well. I was sort of talking myself into the idea that Contreras doing great for STL would've been amusing because their fans would have had to reconcile having a catcher who can actually hit worth a damn with their hero worship of Molina, but I guess that signing not working out is its own kind of funny.
  6. I'm not totally ready to go back to my original prediction of boring 2005ish .500 type season, but I'm getting closer.
  7. Really pissed away the margin for error on this trip with those Marlins games. This one wouldn't be as annoying if 2 of those one run losses had been wins.
  8. Wesneski catching way too much of the plate today. Also thank goodness we're back. That was a long few days.
  9. My favorite thing about playing crummy teams with unsustainable things like "7-0 in one run games" is that that stuff never ever seems to normalize against us
  10. That would not be remotely surprising considering we seem to be in the bottom 10 of the majors almost every year.
  11. Remember when it looked for about 6 minutes like we had stolen this guy for half a season of Bryant?
  12. Kilian's control issues don't exactly look fixed
  13. To be clear, Levis never said anything as far as we know. BigbadB is referring to a post I made on page 2 where his odds to go #1 had suddenly spiked (went from 50/1 to 4/1 or something overnight) because some guy on Reddit claimed Levis was telling his people Carolina was taking him first.
  14. I troll Zillow occasionally and I swear to God I wish I could filter out any listings that say "as is", "investment", "TLC", "project" or anything related.
  15. So the latest rumors involved some silly Reddit post by (as far as we know) a random jackwagon claiming Will Levis had told friends he was the #1 pick. Can't wait to not worry about that in a few hours. I'm extremely confident in Bryce Young. The only thing anyone seems to have against him is that he might get hurt when he's only missed one game in his entire football career to date. Not a good enough reason not to pick someone, IMO.
  16. Looks like Lamar Jackson got a 5-year deal from the Ravens. Interested to see the terms.
  17. Hell, they're already testing a 'whenever you want' pinch runner rule now in the Atlantic League, who cares about limitations now
  18. Update. Still horsefeathering done with Michael Fulmer.
  19. Feels like Max Muncy is gonna set a record for assists today. Everything going right into his glove.
  20. Related - Matt Mervis got 3 more hits today.
  21. I remain nonplussed as to why Luis Torrens is here
  22. Stroman out here making up for all his good pitching to date in one day
  23. Who the actual horsefeathers is James Outman and how did he break baseball
  24. I assume you're remembering his no-hit bid in Milwaukee against the Astros the day after Big Z's no-hitter
  25. I Googled 'Arrieta perfect game bid' and a YouTube clip from 2014 came up when he took one into the 7th against the Reds. I don't think he ever got closer than that. ETA - He apparently also had one into the 7th against Pittsburgh once.
