  1. Gotta get that sick, sick Zobrist bat in the lineup, bro. Hopefully this inspires him to hit TWO home runs tonight, otherwise, horsefeathers him and horsefeathers Drinky Joe.
  2. In his tiny head, sure.
  3. You are right that was probably a 5 or 6 PM start. I just remember it being miserably hot outside. It was awful. I was in Iowa for a wedding, and it was 90-something degrees. Thank god there was an unusually good open bar.
  4. Hey, Schwarber Fan; quit being such a buttpump and step up your game thread game. Get the new one going already.
  5. They could win the 2nd wildcard and could face them in the NLCS.
  6. Man, I'd want to see him ahead of Lester without even thinking twice about it.
  7. Wow, hats off to Quintana for a fantastic CG. What a great thing to pull off right before the postseason.
  8. Well, horsefeathers; Quintana just not horsefeathering around.
  9. Weasels ripped their flesh! RIZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!
  10. Oh yeah; that's easy to mix up.
  11. I do think there's something to this, everyone pick a player to incredulously hate on the rest of the year. I call Rizzo, that 'can't hit 40 HR in a season to save his life' fraud of a franchise player Hey, it's worked for Jay lately.
  12. Well, I guess I have to talk horsefeathers about Zobrist the rest of the year. Touche, you wily old bastard.
  13. Nice work by Quintana today. Good to see he's likely gonna be able to go 7.
  14. Yeah, his .230 .329 .295 .624 line in September is just peachy keen. Play La Stella or Happ at 2B if Baez on the bench; Zobrist serves no purpose except to age slightly closer to inevitable death. Yes, monthly splits are going to look bad when you have a rough 10 day stretch. Zobrist works counts as well as anyone on the team(something that is underappreciated this year relative to past seasons) and the alternatives all have flaws/worries too. It's an imperfect puzzle of like 8 guys for 4 spots, you're going to be making different tradeoffs no matter what you choose. Also, not even Baez would have gotten Broxton at 1B on that play last inning. Monthly spits are also going to look bad when you've had as bad a season as Zobrist has. Yeah, he's been injured, and he's still not looking that great because of it. I don't think he brings enough to the table right now to justify starting him this much over the three other 2B options they have, and DEFINITELY not batting him in the middle of the damn lineup. The comment on his defense isn't just over a single play; at best his defense breaks even with La Stella. I get that they wanted to see if he'd bounce back, but hey, he really didn't. Fortunately they've got other options.
  15. Uh, yeah, get this latest "offense gonna scuffle" bout out of your system now, guys.
  16. Oooh, and don't forget his forgettable defense, too. What an asset.
  17. He's had a rough week or so. The week or so before that he was 12 for 28 with 7 walks. He has a loud single in today's game in 2 trips. He's fine. Yeah, his .230 .329 .295 .624 line in September is just peachy keen. Play La Stella or Happ at 2B if Baez on the bench; Zobrist serves no purpose except to age slightly closer to inevitable death.
  18. What is the point of starting Zobrist? He brings absolutely nothing to the table right now.
