  1. I'm not so sure we really need to have people up in the bullpen already, but whatever
  2. ugh, as if i couldn't hate Lackey enough
  3. im so tired of this team, im so tired of their annoying dingbat little players just go away go away
  4. are you freaking kidding me what the hell
  5. i'm pumped to listen to the game on the radio to distract me from work, personally
  6. Honestly I'm more concerned about the offense hitting Lackey, short rest and on the road considered, than Hammel having a bad outing. They just haven't been able to figure him out all year, but we'll see. I'm confident they'll hit him and Hammel will be good either way
  7. I hate John Lackey. I hate that the Cardinals can continuously take players whose careers look to be done and turn them into incredibly valuable players. I hate his stupid face, his drooling, vacant look. I hate that he mystifies and confuses our hitters, and makes them look like fools. Humble this man.
  8. I like the confidence Maddon has in Baez to put him at SS after making some mistakes last night and having Castro available to play SS there. Dong em back home boys, dong em back home
  9. What if Russell is healthy enough to start and none of this debate means anything?
  10. I would prefer not having La Stella and Coghlan in the lineup Both have looked pretty bad recently, I don't really care about handedness that much
  11. I'm listening to highlights from the Cardinals side and Mike Shannon keeps calling him "Gor-ge Solar" Homie, he's gonna keep hitting home runs so you better learn his name
  12. Cubs now 77.9% to win the series, 50.2% to win the NLCS and 20.2% to win the World Series (best odds in the NL) according to Fangraph's playoff simulator. Dunno why their stats favor the AL so much in their simulation, but it's pretty surprising (and gratifying) to the see the Cubs so far ahead of the NL pack. http://www.fangraphs.com/coolstandings.aspx
  13. Defensive "ability" of Coghlan, you say
  14. Them starting Lackey on short rest seems incredibly silly, especially if they actually want to win the series and not just stave off elimination, they have to win with another pitcher anyway, and having Lackey go with full rest would be the best bet But well, I'm not gonna complain
  15. Soler turning into a superhuman in the playoffs to completely wipe away any bad taste from his struggles this year has cemented this season as my favorite to have watched as a Cubs fan
  16. Man that's unfortunate, not a super easy play to make
  17. This game has quickly turned into owning
  18. Are you [expletive] kidding me with these double plays this series
  19. Christ Almighty, Carlos Correa is killing it
