I'm grateful that I didn't develop an attachment to Castro because it saved me from breaking my brain, apparently
-
I'm reasonably confident that Castro will never resuscitate his career fully, may have a couple good years here and there, but what I am certain of is that if he ever leaves the Cubs, he will have DJ LeMaheiu-esque games against them literally every time they play each other
-
Is this inning still going on or something, Lester just get out of it please
-
really hyper spazzes like that are literally the worst and I don't want them around any sport
-
eh?
-
God I despise Hunter Pence
-
God damn this team is fun when it hits
-
Come on Bryant, put one out on Waveland
-
Imagine the end of 1984 where the protagonist admits that he submits fully to the will of the despotic regime and that he loves Big Brother finally I love Big Schwarber
-
Well it was Ross and Lester, so I'm not really gonna moan about it that much
-
Jorge Soler is hitting really well recently Not for much power but really getting on base at a good clip
-
Gameday says Schwarber basically watched 3 strikes go more or less down the middle? huh.
-
Amazingly, Angel Pagan has been worse than Starlin Castro, and by far, the worst player in the league: http://www.baseball-reference.com/play-index/share.cgi?id=7dRSU
-
Runs in the first inning are sustenance, like manna from heaven
-
I would think telling Castro something like that would mean the professional relationship between him and the organization is more likely coming to an end soon? (Not that his trade value could be any lower)
-
Spiegel and Goff on the Score reported that Maddon said to Castro: "It's not just a day off" So, well, there's that.
-
Starlin is being benched? Nice.
-
He has over 1.0 WAR and doesn't even have 100 at bats yet, bananas
-
Cool thing: Everyone important is hitting or reaching base now, at the same time, which is cool. Except for Fowler and Castro but well, oh well
-
Wins are good!
-
I have seen 40% of Jorge Soler's home runs this year and I have been to only one game at Wrigley it was a cool game though
-
There is a feeling of inevitably when the team clings to a lead they adamantly refuse to tack onto from the first few innings.
-
The weirdest thing about the umpiring recently is that every other sport is making strong moves to *increase* scoring. Football has severely limited what defensive players can do, NHL has made moves to increase scoring, why would the MLB let umps collectively hurt the ability of baseball teams to score when its generally accepted higher scoring increases viewership? (I'm not sure if that is true, but its accepted as true)
-
Come on Castro do something, give us one small bit of redemption
