  1. I am barely paying attention to this game aside from checking gameday from time to time but this has got to be the most astounding futility at scoring a single run in extras in the history of baseball (where there are runners on base)
  2. This game is a sick joke That’s 3 situations with someone on third and less than two outs right?
  3. STOP PUTTING MEN ON BASE IF THIS IS WHAT YOU'RE GONNA DO
  4. some of the junk that Almora swings at, i really dont get
  5. the juggernaut nick ahmed is on. if you haven't turned the game off already, i suggest you do so
  6. its almost impossible to not score a run there by accident total shame. they're gonna get walked off on now
  7. how is that even possible this is what i tune in for? come on now
  8. r u telling me they had bases loaded no out and they're about to not score any runs
  9. He really, really was. I didn't think hitting coaches mattered that much, but he's sure making me think they somehow do. Or they don't, but he's just the one really bad exception. Same. I was always in the camp of “hitting coaches don’t matter”, but, it’s hard to say that is the case after the day and night job by our roster with almost no changes in personnel
  10. Baseball is back baby, it’s good again, awoooo (wolf howl)
  11. almora hitting a dong there actually makes me hate him more *provided we still lose
  12. 8th in wRC with runners in scoring position 3rd in high leverage situations GIVE ME THE NUMBERS FOR SQUANDERED LEADOFF DOUBLES, YOU DICKLESS APES. I am petty, and I demand my rage be verified. I've seen 4 of them wasted in the tiny sample size of games I've watched, so yes, I assure you with the power of my large galaxy brain, that you're correct
  13. except he was drafted by Epstein. Yes, exactly, that was the point of my post
  14. Albert Almora is bad in a way that a Jim Hendry guy would be bad. He swings at everything, grounds out, and sucks.
  15. Am I allowed yet to be angry they've gotten 2 men on in the last two innings and scored no runs? I just want to be mad about something
  16. Guys I think Jason Heyward May actually be good This has got to be the longest stretch of being even decent right?
  17. At least Joe recognizes Almora cannot lead off. It’s too bad he isn’t where he belongs (in triple A)
  18. Albert Almora is really really bad He was bad last year and they kept fuckin hitting him lead off
  19. Can’t we offer Tyler Chatwood to R’hllor, the Red God, for favorable winds and the favor of the One True God?
  20. I didn’t say he was one of the best, but he is average and has had an above average season. Stow your argument away, it’s materially and objectively wrong. You said " he’s solidly average or above average defensively". Neither is true. I repeat what I said before, he is playing LF because the NL doesn't have a DH and LF (or 1B) are the places you hide big-time sluggers with defensive liabilities. No you're wrong. I mean you're just totally wrong by all measures of man and god Provide the numbers that say the opposite or go away
  21. This is a crummy way to lose the win streak (I guess there’s no non-crummy way to lose a game)
  22. I don’t care what the numbers say, I don’t care if there’s “evidence” to the contrary, the Cubs are the worst team in the history of sports to score after a lead off double
  23. I liked Darvish better when he was an injured unknown Now he’s alive but sucks, which is worse
