    No matter what portion is heard, a song with that title should never intentionally be played during a baseball game (other than the intern protest scenario). Not arguing otherwise, only pointing out how it could happen, especially since 10, even 5 years ago there wouldn't have been the same response to the same clip being played. Nah, that song's been dicey along those lines since it came out. It wouldn't have been as quick a story, say, 10 years ago minus something like Twitter, but it's a song that I would assume most organizations wouldn't even want on on their playlist just since it's been a headache since it was released.

    horsefeathers, that would be even worse.

    You can have your thumb sliced off by a table saw and be feeling better shortly after "treatment." Go make out with Koyie Hill you weirdo.

    Rondon should have been pulled after the first HR, but anything before that would have really seemed like jumping the gun since, like you said, his stuff and velocity looked good and he was ahead of Wong and got upended by a perfect bunt. I was expecting him to get out of it until that home run.
  6. Sammy Sofa
    His home runs allowed are up, but I believe literally everything else except ERA is better than last season.
  7. Sammy Sofa
    In hindsight, clearly. Rondon wasn't ready to go today. And it would have be nice to work him in during a lower leverage spot. But, at the same time, we were currently playing the Cardinals. And we were leading and it was late. Really, it would have been better off if he was coming back at a different time. But if you think he's ready and you're in that spot, it's hard to say, "Well, maybe we'll just wait until sometime in the next series." Yeah, it was largely just bad timing; Rondon has to get in sooner rather than later. You skip him tonight, and you end up already two weeks since the last time he pitched. They could have waited to use him in the 9th, but Chapman kinda needs to get in as well since he didn't get much work during the winning streak himself. Ideally it's Rondon shaking of the rust (to me his stuff and velocity looked good, which was encouraging) and he'll be back to kicking ass again.

    The two new kids look pretty good and Martinez is a very good pitcher. They played some pretty good games except for the second. Yeah, that's not exactly a recipe for deep playoff success. I'm with the guy who has no fear of playing the Cardinals in the playoffs.
  9. Sammy Sofa
    Yeah, his first couple of appearances were unfortunate, but it's odd to be griping about him now.
  10. Sammy Sofa
    He arguably destroyed Harper. The Cubs don't need him putting his evil on them.
  11. Sammy Sofa
    Yeah, but Cobra would have done it with lasers and held everyone for ransom until they got the underwater crystals they needed for their earthquake machine.
  12. Sammy Sofa
    Go, Bukie, go.

    Who is starting tomorrow's?

    If JHey can avoid gidp here he already had when i posted that Bad feeds today.
  15. Sammy Sofa
    Hahahahah! Heyward miraculously saved by the double play. He's so depressingly terrible right now.
  16. Sammy Sofa
    It really isn't; the team is short two critical relievers and Joe would be asking him to come in and get the final out or two of the inning.
  17. Sammy Sofa
    Chapman has refused to pitch in non save situations? He's said he really doesn't like to pitch in those sort of situations and Joe said he would do his best not to use him in such situations Well, that's HUGELY different than him refusing to do so. Pretty sure if Joe had called for him to come in he would have.
  18. Sammy Sofa
    Haters gotta see what's going on I just figured it was Ski and Rondon Fan tripping over each other to get logged in.
  19. Sammy Sofa
    How the hell did the board crash over this silly nothing of a game?
  20. Sammy Sofa
    Man, bad, bad call, Joe.
  21. Sammy Sofa
    [expletive], my feed is late; what are you guys freaking out over? The wild pitch that I just saw?
  22. Sammy Sofa
    Meh.
