  1. I'm glad enough they put up a fight in this game Baseball reverts back to owning
  2. 2008 was awesome from beginning to end and the playoffs didn't really even bother me that much because I was confident they would be back for a few years after How young I was
  3. I wish this team would curbstomp bad teams That's whats so fun about basketball, as a sport, really
  4. No Bryant either? This is like a surrender lineup to a team that already took game 1 Try not to get swept and lose a 3 game series to the [expletive] Reds [expletive]
  5. guys, i dont think we're gonna pull this one out
  6. I refuse to get too excited because I remember Chris Sheldon
  7. lol, 4-0 already? I guess we aren't allowed to feel good for too long
  8. I'll be more than happy with Mike Piazza back there, in my honest opinion
  9. Schwarber is so pissed no one else on the team is doing their job he takes things into his own hands What a hitter
  10. To be honest I hope Russell reaches just to get Fowler out of the order next inning
  11. Someone for the love of god hit a home run
  12. *rub glasses furiously* a Starlin....hit????
  13. i literally couldn't care less about the K's if they reached base and hit for power Like if you strike out 40% of the time but have an OBP of .400 we'd be fine. If every player was Kris Bryant's profile, we'd have the best team in the league, even with a near 40% k rate
  14. I'm not even mad at the pitching, to be mad at the pitching is futile. This team needs to be able to score 5 runs occasionally. It can't.
  15. Whoever it was that posted about how this schedule wont be a cakewalk for the Cubs because a lot of these bad teams can score runs and the Cubs can't is someone I agree with. The current Cubs can't really knock anyone out so each game is gonna be a dogfight like this. It'd be nice if a couple players would go on a tear *at the same time* but I'm not holding out hope

  17. I haven't been able to watch the games Schwarber has caught, how does he look? Does he seem particularly incompetent?
  18. I probably dislike Skip Schumacher more than every other MLB player combined I hate that little flea with my entire being
  19. How do you justify sending Schwarber down after what he's done in the majors? He's been magnificent Send literally anyone else down, and play Schwarber anywhere
  20. The old argument was offense was up because there weren't enough good pitchers due to expansion. But we can actually locate what's causing the run environment to depress, its not some mystical thing that we can apply to whatever we like. The strike zone has expanded (down) and there are more pitchers that can throw harder. The latter might be affected by expansion a little bit, but the former will be completely unaffected by expansion and the availability of talent. So at the end of the day there'll just be more teams requiring more position players that can't handle the expanded zone.
  21. A couple of pages back but also think how expansion would affect the run environment. It's already hard enough to find competent bats now, stretch talent in the league with 2 more teams and we'll see an even more depressed run environment.
