You're the man, Aramis.
-
Whut. I really want a Game 163 between the Cardinals and Pirates So you're really going to be that "I'm rooting for the Cubs to lose" guy?
-
Whut.
-
Awwww, rat farts. Alright, I'll settle for a CG shutout.

Back? They're, like, last or almost dead last when it comes to getting a guy in from 3B with less than 2 outs. Someone respectable posted that a week or two ago; something like 42%. Not just that, but getting big HITS with multiple runners on base. It happened a ton in August when we were scoring runs in bunches, and the past few weeks, not so much. I don't give a [expletive] about that; that's going to fluctuate all the time. The bigger problem is stranding what are basically gimme runs, and they were doing that at an above average rate even when they've been scoring runs in bunches. and a big part of it is that we strike out a lot, which is a byproduct of our power and our plate approach, both of which have a lot to do with how many runs we've been scoring for the past two months. we've been scoring lots of runs. why is does it matter how we do in a specific situation? It's a byproduct of along the lines of what Soul is talking about; that's always going to fluctuate up and down, like I said. Being last or almost last when it comes to something as relatively simple as getting a guy across the plate from 3B from there's less than 2 outs is more problematic, especially when they're heading into the postseason where dong-driven drubbings are relatively rare.

What a bunch of assholes.
-
FFS. How is this team so [expletive] bad with a guy on 3rd.
-
He's in, like, a 5 game slump right now. What the [expletive] are you talking about.
-
[expletive], EVERYONE STOP SUCKING IN THESE SITUATIONS.
-
Hahahahaah! God, this ump [expletive] sucks/thanks blue.
-
Why wouldn't they? Arrieta's been getting those calls all game.
-
Oh God; his numbers over the last 28 days are barftastic.
-
I desperately want Jake to at least pitch a CG because of weak [expletive] like this.
-
Just load the bases; a man on 3B with less than 2 outs is the Cubs' super pressing Kryptonite.
-
I just tried to bend myself like Jake did in that clip and I had a fart attack.
-
Nah; they can win the rest of them after this one.

September Other Games Thread
Sammy Sofa replied to Little Slide Rooter's topic in Fred Hornkohl Game Thread Forum
Hasn't the narrative on Harper for most of his career been basically, "this guy needs to scale it back a bit before he kills himself running into a wall or imploding on the basepaths?" And Puffyface Magoo is going to chew him out for not running out a pop-up? -
Well, [expletive], guess I should still go into the September Other Games thread. I thought that thing was useless now.
