Outside of August he's been damn good this season. When did I say he wasn't good? Well, saying he's not likely to be used outside of some crazy outlier of a game seems to be implying he's not bringing much value. The playoff rotation only being Arrieta/Lester/Pitching smorgasbord doesn't seem too realistic. -

Over who?

My uncle is a diehard Pirates/all things Pittsburgh fan and he sent me a text last night basically congratulating the Cubs for winning already and complaining about how "knew the Pirates were toast for weeks now." I am completely baffled as to what he saw that made him give up on one of the best teams in baseball, but hey, I'll take it.

http://i.giphy.com/SJ7hatK4aFI1W.gif Complimenting the opposing team's city and fans? Being super positive? Who the [expletive] is this and what have you done with rawdog?

Second response in the comment section:

You guys need to quit being scaredy ass bitches. You'll feel so [expletive] good when the Cubs win the play in game. It's not being scared, it's anticipation, anxiousness, being excited etc. or as Pat Hughes called it today "game stomach" Yeah, it's like a million emotions just going nuts at the same time.

Addison in that pic with Rizzo is giving a preview of what I'll be like after they win tomorrow night. But reduced to scale.
-
I still maintain that Coghlan's fWAR is the best argument right now that defensive metrics are still basically some unholy combination of alchemy and voodoo and not to be trusted.
-
I keep telling myself I'm going to be super cool over tomorrow's game, but [expletive] that; just watching this game right now and picturing the Cubs in either team's shoes at any given moment so far makes me want to barf up my heart.
-
It looks glorious.
-
I think on the average page of posts there's only like 3-4 posters with sig pics.

That's why I'm torn between Rat Boy and Baez at 3B. Maybe/probably I'm underselling La Stella's defense, but Baez just seems like the better option with the glove.
-
Dammit, you and Brandon need to stop setting such terrible examples.
-
I just updated mine and SO CAN ALL OF YOU.
-
Hey, I stopped after my pledge during the Cardinals game. After that I only say "Rat Boy" as a cool nickname for him.

Beane to get the Theo treatment
Sammy Sofa replied to jersey cubs fan's topic in General Baseball Talk
Man, baseball FO's used to be filled with such big sloppy guys. Now they all look like such punchable dudebros. -
He's the team's best contact guy and sometimes you need contact. He's got a 727 OPS as a utility infielder. He's a perfectly fine candidate to participate in the postseason. This has been the hilarious pattern for a month. "La Stella in the lineup, not again!" [La Stella goes 1 for 3 with a double and a walk] [two days later] "La Stella in the lineup, not again!" Because no matter how well he does he can still only ever be Tommy La Stella, which means he's just taking away playing time from a much more exciting player. He's the baseball version of a sound, modest investment; ultimately there are plenty of times where he makes much more sense, but, [expletive], blowing all of my money on this rocket car right now sounds so much more fun and exciting. See also: Coghlan or Denorfia starting over Schwarber or Soler. The logic of the decision is obvious, but, [expletive], it still can't help but seem so [expletive] lame.

Addison Russell is awesome and deserves a thread
Sammy Sofa replied to David's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
The idea of having to watch minor league games sounds like straight up HELL. -
Man, he looks so much more different to me; much more traditionally "pitcher chunky" than what he is now.

Sammy Sofa replied to Banedon's topic in General Baseball Talk
Yeah, but you have to hear King because of how many times the Bulls play your beloved Cavaliers. The Cardinals almost never played the White Sox. -

St. Louis, obviously. Also: Hawk is dropping his [expletive] load. -
Even though I watched the games at the time, it seems so [expletive] weird to see Rizzo and Soriano on the same team in that picture. It feels like [expletive] forever since the Soriano days.
