There's basically no way a .900+ OPS season can be a disappointment so I'm not really sure what you're expecting. I expect Bryant to get better and better, but players performance doesn't fit a nice curve up and down with their peak and decline. And he's really really good and nearly putting up the same numbers as last year except with apparently a decline in his defense right now so I'm not getting it.

[muses to himself, bored at work] huh, i wonder if the game got started yet [checks score] oh

Baseball is good

I wonder if a trade like this is a signal towards approaching the playoffs with every starter on a very short leash and letting a super powerful good bullpen handle roughly half or a majority of each game. A lot of teams were starting to move in that direction over the past couple years, and the Indians wanted to leverage their two best relievers that way last year (and, uh, lost) but maybe thats the plan as far as any sort of "magic sauce" (that I agree doesn't exist, there's just way too much variance for anything to make a huge dent in a handful of games) in the playoffs.

who would play 3B? baez vs a righty? no thanks Caratini has a .500 OPS though I'm fine if the half-surrender lineup goes to Lackey though because I hate him

Pretty awesome way for Heyward to top his 2016 HR total

BigSlick replied to Sammy Sofa's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
He did, for whatever its worth, just pull his OPS above .700 today too In terms of arbitrary stat lines, it'll be nice to see him pull that average over the Mendoza line. Let him work the rest of it out over the rest of the season. -
The Super Cubs are back and it feels so good

UGH Pat really made me excited on that one

hey, some runs here would be cool or whatever
