  2. Plus sending a guy barreling around 3B to try and score when you're up 5-2 still seems like a recipe for unnecessarily upping the injury risk to your best hitter. If they're down or tied, alright, but 5-2? How is this not just the hindsight talking?
  3. Well, he IS a booze-powered automaton.
  4. Its funny to me that after the team says they will do this people actually aren't against it, but when i said that some weeks ago the whole forum basically attacked me lol Rightfully so; David is drunk. This is going to be a catastrophe.
  5. Wasn't Castro hitting like .300 the past 7 or so games? .263 .333 .368 .702 over the last week. Decent, but he did stink at the plate tonight.
  6. Well Pence is literally a monster from Rick and Morty come to life, so we're really splitting hairs with what 'looks like' v. reality. Buster Posey is like the frat president in Animal House.
  7. Almost everyone on the Giants looks like they fell out of a dumpster.
  8. So you honestly believe that there's zero chance at this point that Kris Bryant, now a professional baseball player, will not work with anyone other than his father when it comes to his approach at the plate? Yes go google it. Listen to me very carefully; I'm not disputing he's said he's always worked with his dad. We've all heard it. I'm saying that there's basically no chance a team leaves the fate of one of their top prospects completely in the hands of his father, nor would he and his father likely shun the team's involvement when we're talking about him making a LOT more money if he's able to improve and stay good.

  10. Honestly I think Bryant gets way too much hype. I fell for it too. I bought a Jersey right away. Even JD said on the broadcast that Bryant has some flaws with his mechanics and the league is exposing him. I don't think experience will help there. He actually needs a new batting stance. Yup, that's completely impossible to do. He's just a sham. It's not like that's something the guy playing across from him did or anything. Im not saying it's impossible EVER but I highly doubt it will happen this season. It's been said several times that he only listens to his dad about his swing. You really think he's going to only talk/work with his dad on his approach? That [expletive] is cute and corny when you're a college player and prospect; he's in the majors now and he's ultimately playing for huge money. He's not going to go, "durrrrrrrrrr, I'm only gonna work with mah paw."
  11. Go wipe your butts or something; Cubs aren't losing this.

  13. He's Adam Dunn right now Why do people keep saying this like it's a bad thing. It would be a HUGE improvement if he was Adam Dunn right now. Unless you're saying he's Adam Dunn at the disgusting end of his career. I didn't assign value to his being Adam Dunn. Just saying he's a 3 true outcome hitter right now Strike out, ground out and fly out?

  15. Randy Wells seems relatively appropriate to bring up.
  16. Plus it's got to be extremely hard to prove in the first place. Right; and it's often something that needs to be reported and investigated in a more timely manner than many other crimes, yet it just seems like there's a lot of dancing around a general sense of, "welllllll, they should only report it if they're 100% sure it can be proven."
  17. There's instances of false accusation with all crimes; there's this nonsense train of thought that always seems to be implying that sexual crimes should be held to a higher standard of proof than other crimes because the accused could "have their life ruined."
  18. I'm also not sure where these insanely strict gun laws are. Seems to me it's easier than ever to be a complete [expletive] white person and walk around town with assault weapons with no repercussions. Uh, where have you been? Obummer's been taking all of the guns and giving them to secret Muslim Mexican terrorists.
