I'll take "who is Soriano but with amazing defense and who sticks at 2B?" for a quadzillion dollars, please, Alex.

I demand greatness and will not settle for coddling mediocrity. You can take your sorry team filled with nothing but Coghlans and La Stellas and stuff 'em in a sack. -
I feel like I should be dramatically waking up in a cold sweat after reading this.

Agreed on all cononuts. Would be great to get Cogs bat in the lineup but can't see sitting Zo, Javy, or JHey sitting yet. And I've reversed my position from earlier this year. Javy is too valuable at 2B and KB too good at third to keep Zo on the IF. You get a LF upgrade with KB but at least in Wrigley's small confines I think you want the IF strength more. So...same defensive alignment with hopefully Willson getting the call. I wouldn't be broken up if it was Montero though. If the Cubs were, say, the Giants and wondering where they'd get their offense from each series, OK, I could see really trying to get Coghlan in there. Or Contreras. But since this is a lineup of sexy bat-monsters, they have the luxury to go with someone like Heyward, who is at least all but a lock to give you baller defense (I don't trust the sorcerous deception of Coghlan's supposed late-career defensive renaissance for a second, and especially not if it means him or Zobrist ending up in RF), or someone like Montero, who frames with the deft touch of a Baroque master. Let the good bats do their thing, maximize your defense and pitching strengths and you still have Coghlan and Contreras to hopefully do damage off the bench if needed.

Javy 3B, Zo 2B, Bryant in LF. And presumably Montero catching, though who the horsefeathers knows at this point.

Very weird camera angles for a lot of the game. Like it was oddly elevated behind the pitcher.
-
Boooooooooooo.

I think he should. We might as well make the defense completely airtight in those moments. Yeah, everyone I was with was yelling at the screen when we realized Zobrist was still out there. Totally agreed with the moves Maddon was making in regards to the pitching, but then he leaves Churchy McBibleface out there instead of basically anyone except Soler? Odd. And speaking of Zobrist, was he using different walk-up music all night?

got me a new phone background (replacing the javy HR from mother's day) if anyone wants a huge version http://www.trbimg.com/img-57f86c1e/turbine/ct-cubs-giants-nlds-game-1-photos-043/3600/3600x2024 YOINK. Thanks.

I was wondering that as I watched Zobrist go after Posey's double. I think he should. We might as well make the defense completely airtight in those moments. Yeah, everyone I was with was yelling at the screen when we realized Zobrist was still out there.

It's on MLBN, why would you have not DVR'd FS1 last night? Because my DIRECTV guide said it was on MLBN Yeah, Derwood's actually right; it was listed to be on both channels. I was at a friend's place and his FS1 feed was cutting in and out, so when they suddenly dropped the game on MLBN despite having having the whole thing on their schedule, we had to bail and haul ass back to my place to finish watching.

Maybe it's pretty nice under rocks, you dick.

GIMME DAT BAEZ BAT FLIP.

Did Big Hurt just talk about hitting a ball onto Gary Sheffield?
-
The contrast between him and the horrifyingly Dick Tracy Villain-looking Pete Rose is...drastic.
-
He was trying to bum money off of me to buy a beer in 2015 in Mesa Jesus Christ: How the horsefeathers do you manage to get hit by a horsefeathering car leaving the hospital, which you were in because YOU GOT HIT BY A CAR.
-
Shocker that a ridiculous drunk keeps getting injured.
-
Jeez, unclench already; you're all acting like someone disbanded the PTA or something because Deadspin wrote a smartass article.

take a nap this afternoon like a normal person Can't; having work down on my place and had to be up at the ass crack of dawn for it. I'm hoping for the Cubs handing out an early drubbing so I can pass out after the 4th inning or so.

This obscenely late start time should be criminal.
