I feel like we say that often, it's just that he can't put it together for more than four innings. You say that like Joe didn't panic and pull him early last time out. -
Dumb freak HR aside, Yu looked damn good.

So is this going on or what? https://www.draysbay.com/2019/3/4/18249693/mlb-experiments-with-new-baseballs The reason I ask is because I was stuck (HIIIII-OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH) listening to the Score on the way out of Chicago on Tuesday morning, and some guest was being interviewed who talked about the balls being used in baseball this year like it was a known fact that what's described in this article is happening, the mud is not being used, and that players are complaining about the "stickiness" of the new baseballs. I randomly remembered hearing this tossed out there as an idea a few years ago, but I figured if it actually went into effect it would be a bigger deal, especially if players were complaining. But Bernstein and The Other Guy just rolled with it like this is a known thing and talked about how it could especially horsefeathers up a guy like Hendricks. Did anyone else hear this segment? Is MLB actually using some type of new ball? I can't seem to find much of anything about it; mostly just the article above and ones talking about how AAA is now using MLB balls this season: https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/milb-2019-preview-new-year-new-baseballs/ Did I just, not shockingly, completely miss this happening?

Oh my god, those horsefeathering cuffs.

Random factoid of the day: did everyone realize that the Brewers are paying Aramis a cool deferred $3 mill right now? In 2019? https://www.spotrac.com/mlb/pittsburgh-pirates/aramis-ramirez-159/ -
He did! OK, I thought I was going a little crazy imagining it... https://www.mlb.com/cut4/marcell-ozuna-climbs-wall-chasing-fly-ball-but-it-falls-well-short-c282315820

Wait...didn't he horsefeathering do that against the Brewers, too?
-
And it really bugs me that Jordan doesn't lock his workstation.

I will use math. + = that dude

No. You seemed to almost got there when you recognized the inherent internal conflict that is essentially Harvey Dent-ing their brains every second of every day.
-
Yes, that is indeed the point.
-
Though the dude wandering around wearing an old timey Cubs uniform and corpse makeup so that he was some kind of baseball zombie was pretty cool.

A fratbro who is gay. It seems pretty self-explanatory. I think of fratbro culture as being pretty hostile towards homosexuality (at least in the open, weird pledge horsefeathers obviously happens behind closed doors) Just caught me off guard.. But is the gay fratbro somehow worse than straight fratbro? Indubitably. He gets to be the absolute worst, most obnoxious version of more than one culture. This guy was alternating between countering the drunk ladyfriend's tales of shrimpy dink woe by bragging as loudly as possible about how his dude is rocking almost 10 inches and how he could handle it like a pro no matter how drunk he got, and then even more loudly trying to pick a fight with a guy down the aisle seemingly for having the audacity for getting out of his seat and having to pass by one time too many.

Well, maybe THIS version... ACCURATE. Expected Nellie, but I guess that’s too far That's if the season is in danger of ending under .500.

So, hey, it only took 15 tries to between the start of 2016 and now for me to finally see the Cubs have an easy laugher of a win (though my record is a downright 2019 Cubsian 4-11)! Who would have thought it would be THIS team, with Lester having to leave the game super early, and Rizzo-Baez-Contreras having 9 k's between them? Baseball is weird. Also the first Home Opener I've been to in about 20 years that I can remember not being just absolutely miserable weather-wise. Though the insanely drunk woman behind me with the cartoon baby voice having WAY too loud a conversation with her gay fratbro (PS: these guys are the WORST) BFF about how her new-ish husband only has a 4 incher was an...interesting bonus.

This just makes me wish Creed was the manager instead of Joe. Only if Pam is there to make sure he doesn't do anything stupid. I think the real answer is to find a Pam for Joe. They had one, but he transferred to the DC branch, and it turns out he actually sucks as a boss.

(That also could be applied to Creed: the band)
