    I don't get how every line drive Heyward does manage to hit gets caught

    5 runs against the hideous Brewers in 2.5 games ain't great
  4. BigSlick
    This team despises lead off baserunners
  5. BigSlick
    This guy just walked Jon Lester, who is one of the worst hitting pitchers I've ever seen We have no excuse for not pounding him into dust
  6. BigSlick
    Lester is at 56 pitches already, Jesus Christ

    *holds giant sign that reads "COMMIT FEWER OUTS"*
  8. BigSlick
    You don't have to just commit so many outs

    Obv the most predictable thing in the world is for me to be the happiest with a lineup all year and it to not score

    [tweet] [/tweet] Now this is fascinating. Obviously the substitutes for Fowler were significantly worse hitters but I'm drawn to the "scoring only 1 baserunner out of 61" stat. How unimaginably unlucky must we have been to register that few runs? If that stat increases to something that is merely Bad like, 5 out 61, and not Damn Near a Complete Blackhole of Zero Runs, we probably win several more games going into the break and it doesn't even seem like that bad of a stretch. 1 out of 61 base runners. Mind boggling.

    [tweet] [/tweet] It's the super offense lineup!
  12. BigSlick
    Well it took en 16 innings but the Cards won again. Lol
  13. BigSlick
    I've now switched rooting modes and am completely cool with the Cards and Dodgers playing a really long extra innings game no matter who wins. Go 18! Use starters in relief!

    Dex is just gonna OBP .800 for us from here on out I'm pretty sure
  15. BigSlick
    Um that was kinda dumb wasn't it? It feels like every other game I worry about Baez's health, which I think it's gonna be like for his whole career
  16. BigSlick
    *begins to make a joke about "the offense really going to crap after those 4 runs" but feels kinda serious about it*

    Jason....

    Seeing "in play run(s)" when it's just a man on first always bodes poorly Hammel why you gotta be like this man
  19. BigSlick
    lol at Dexter reaching base the first 3 times he comes to bat. Team is back to monster status IMO, I'm raising the flag
  20. BigSlick
    To make a quote that'll make David happy: deserve's got nothing to do with it. I'd be sad to see Dex go, but it'll probably be what makes sense. We got a crowded outfield with Schwarber coming back, two guys that can play a very good centerfield already on the roster, and I expect (though I was wrong this past season) a very hot market for Dexter. Who knows though.
  21. BigSlick
    That was a super nice rip by Fowler. Month off might have been great for him anyway.
  22. BigSlick
    SOler is still dead
  23. BigSlick
    [tweet] [/tweet]Aside from Montero that's probably the most monstrous offensive lineup we can get out there
  24. BigSlick
    nice (ricketts lol) a co-worker asked me if he could unload some Cubs tickets on me, and they just so happened to be on my birthday. It'll be the first game i'll get to see this year. :D :D

    I don't understand what they could even do to affect the existence of relief pitchers. Whatever they do they'd have to force starters to pitch longer, which would literally be legislating more injured pitchers. Thats good for the game? Here's what they could do - shrink the strike zone back to its pre-2011 size and put in a pitch clock. I'd honestly really like a pitch clock.
