  1. im going back and forth on being mad that i didnt check my team this week and thinking it's funnier because i beat tim on a miracle day and then wasted that miracle
  2. legit thought it was a one week finals lmao
  3. FWIW I just gave him a heart. Also, totally forgot about A New Era. Aesthetically speaking, his sig may be the worst thing in the history of the world. 2015 draftee lol
  4. lol i thought that banner thing was just some shady ad. I donated
  5. Jake has nearly 2 WAR on Greinke and his historic, unparalleled second half has coincided with the cubs making a huge push, getting national attention and he's going to be credited (rightfully so) with propelling their second half run. I think he's going to win it.
  6. that ... doesnt sound like complaining at all
  7. jesus christ what in the actual [expletive]
  8. imb

    Baez

    he's been protected so much in the lineup and with matchups that there's basically no point in really debating it now, because you can just see what you want to see. Fangraphs seems to think he's been a good fielder so far and I know the cubs think he's a great baserunner, so we'll just have to wait and see what happens.
  9. i posted that in the front office thread i think, pretty crazy how much kazmir has fallen apart
  10. Dunno where to put this but Dan Haren Cubs version: 4.30 ERA 4.80 fip in 52.1 IP (10 GS) Scott Kazmir Astros version: 3.91 ERA 4.91 fip in 69 IP (12 GS)
  11. dan estes really having a night
  12. this ballpark is hella depressing
  13. Haha I was wondering the same thing. I was driving home from the gym and it was the feed sirius had selected. It wasn't marty brennaman, but it was another old codger who had just had enough of these shitty reds. Votto's bunt almost sent him over the edge.
  14. lmao specifics pretty please?? Whoever it is is basically suicidal. The Reds pitcher is just "Another rookie who has not gotten any better as we've waited for this season to finally come to an end." Then price argued that ground ball: "what is he doing? I have no idea what he is arguing or what is taking so long!" Bruce misplays in RF: "this is an absolute fiasco! He should be credited with two errors without a doubt in my mind" Bottom of the first starts: "and of course, the Reds are down 4-0 before they even swing a bat!"
  15. Reds radio: this is an absolute fiasco!
  16. regardless, he has expressed that same sentiment before so whats the difference
  17. We've got our all-world mega-ace going in the WC game. How'd we get him again? By going huge on a free agent in the offseason, or by spreading it around on lots of pitching bets? do we really want to spend any time whatsoever from this little window of cheap offensive production we've constructed for ourselves hoping to get lucky on a bunch of small pitcher bets? This isn't online poker
  18. I kind of don't want 1/3rd of our payroll in 2017 tied up in a pair of 33-year-old pitchers. I don't want to be pondering a bullpen game in the 2016 playoffs. [expletive] thank you
  19. David's said several times something to the effect of "a-ha, this says so much about you" in recent days, but I'm going to let you in on the not-so-secret that really does explain everything: I find me hilarious, which is why it really doesn't bother me if nobody else does. *tips fedora* *spins and walks away* *trips when sandals strap comes loose*
  20. the cubs making the playoffs is like moving to bumfuck, nowhere to work for a woman named katie pizza
  21. any time kyle is being positive about the cubs it's only so later on when something goes wrong he can feel bad about letting the team get his hopes up. he's the worst and everyone needs to stop pretending he's people
  22. This is the kind of empty promise crap that bothers me. You can't realistically make promises like that. what a pathetic thing to whine about
  23. So CT doesn't grasp what a "homophobe" is ....
  24. I've always been more negative than the average fan, yes. That's a good thing. Edit: If you go back to like 2002 I went by IvyEmpire and was convinced that we were going to be awesome forever thanks to Jim Hendry's farm system. OK. Cool. It just seems like nothing is ever good in your eyes and you can't enjoy or have fun. But I'm a scaredy cat when it comes to my team, so I have issues as well. He's only having fun when he's thinking about how sad his life is and he realizes it makes other people feel awkward.
