  1. THAT was the one i forgot Holy moly he had an 8 ERA in 4 starts
  2. what? lieber was legitimately really [expletive] good Yeah not sure what I was remembering there, ah well He was excellent in his first stint with the Cubs. When he came back in '07 (?), I think he was pretty much done. Yeah i was drawing a parallel with Haren and the 2008 Lieber, not his first stay But even then he wasn't bad, by the numbers

  4. good christ man, you can't even get the pitcher out
  5. Looking at the number Lieber was actually better than I remembered and was like league average (though his peripherals forecast doom)
  6. Remember Jon Lieber yall? This whole thing reminds me of the Jon Lieber acquisition
  7. having merely mediocre 4-5 starters make you likely an excellent team, you realize that, right?
  8. poor Dan Haren. Gotta love his attitude with stuff like his twitter account name being @IThrow88 but man man. this dude is cooked
  9. How the hell does Marlon Byrd have 20 homers this year
  10. it would own if the Cubs could win while also racking up 27 strike outs in the game
  11. Gameday shows that Jonathan Herrera swung at a pitch that was roughly underground still, Runs! Those are good!
  12. Ahh Denorfia and Sczcur today its..gonna be especially hard game to get runs
  13. BigSlick

    Castro

    I guess there are few downsides to standing on top of the plate, aside from exposing yourself to more injury and I guess, at a tertiary level, pissing off the other team. More HBP and more plate coverage is good. Thanks Rizzo.
  14. No one should ever be able to wear glasses on a baseball field after Chuck McElroy perfected the look. It will just never be topped so no one should try. remember when greg maddux, at the height of his dominance, wore those mid 90s nerdy andrew cunanan glasses? Only he and Charlie Sheen are allowed glasses
  15. The real tragedy was not beating up on Peavy, who such an immense [expletive] he deserves to be crushed at every opportunity That and the gamethread
  16. I do not like that Giants fellow who wears the glasses
  17. The correct orientation to game threads is bemused detachment with the right degree of irony IMO
  18. He kinda talks like he's got marbles in his mouth all the time. Really noticed that in Bojack Horseman
  19. Eh at the end of the day I just remember that taking one game in this series, already accomplished, makes it a productive series and stifles any ground the Giants gain on us so I'm not gonna get too worked up on this game.
  20. I do appreciate Grant Brisbee's style, though I probably wouldn't as much if the Giants won a game
  21. What is dead may never die, but rises again harder and stronger
  22. Just a cool +17 game stretch, no big deal
  23. just re-watched video of Castros homer and by god that's probably the best contact he's had all season just don't jeter Addison Russell
