I guess Hammel is completely broken then? That's unfortunate

In 2008, Carlos Zambrano allowed a .241/.316/.370 line while hitting .337/.337/.554 That disparity I suspect is the best by a pitcher since a Babe Ruth type, but maybe I'm wrong. Zambrano also had *24* home runs in his career. Incredible. I miss that big guy. :hello:

I'd like to complain about the Cardinals luck but really even after our hot streak the Cubs *still* have outperformed their Pythagorean by a significant amount, so I don't think we have much leg to stand on. And in a sense, I get a perverse enjoyment that the Cardinals may be riding a house of cards performance and it'll collapse at any moment. (Or they'll just win it all, but the 2006 83 win Cardinals already destroyed my capacity for outrage so, no biggie)

That OBP is sexy Re: Howie Kendrick, I never really understood the appeal of over-30 middle infielders that are primarily Batting Average driven. People wanted Brian Roberts for half a decade. They don't seem to be all that hard to find, dunno the need to find dudes that are usually in everyone's system but younger and cost-controlled.

good night, sweet prince

eternal shame unto the Nationals for wasting Bryce Harper's historic season woe upon all teams that do not pair their mega superstar with quality position players
-
Holy Smokes could not come at a more useless time, but nice to see that happen
-
where are you getting all of these star wars outtakes
-
think of how bad the Rebel foot soldiers were, they couldn't even beat *Stormtroopers* plus those hats, jeez
-
alright time for three straight dongers, do it
-
18 Ks so far in this game, hot diggity
-
Oh Jonathon Herrera leading the inning off...thats unfortunate edit: Nevermind!
-
Avisail Garcia in this series has actually looked like a major league player, as opposed to most of the rest of the season
-
if the Cubs pull this out in the last 2 innings they are definitely Team of Destiny level clutchness I wont be mad if they can't though, it's whatever
-
*checks the box score* 15 strike outs? Hot Damn This was always gonna be a very hard game to win, I guess credit to Haren for keeping it close
-
I'll also say this: the white sox defense is abominably bad
-
There is a severe lack of dongs in this game. Just saying
-
Can't complain about BABIP in this game
-
This'll get lost in the game day posting quagmire but my comments about Denorfia were solely based on someone wanting him in the lineup over Soler
-
Can't wait to get that 35 year old journeyman Chris Denorfia more at bats But real talk, this season more than any other has made me want to go with the DH, partly because of Schwarber, partly because of Already Hits Like A Pitcher Blanket David Ross. In the AL you can suffer a specialized defensive player, the NL, not so much
-
Ideal scenario playing out in New York with the Pirates-Mets game going into extras Root for extras every game
-
Irish Gold is definitely my favorite butter brand, IMO
-
that was surprisingly easy
-
Hawk is totally gonna die in the announcer's booth

The White Sox adamantly hate walking and you're walking them, don't do it Its bad for you
