  1. Lets have a Sotobomb, quick 9th and we all go home happy. (Except the Pirates)
  2. My Kingdom for a - just get on base you idiots
  3. We still need to get a lead in this game.
  4. I need to start praying again Theres no reason this should happen.
  5. There is literally nothing I hate in baseball more than giving up the lead and then quietly going away. I was hoping we'd do better, but I'm not so sure its in the cards.
  6. Ramirez not really putting himself into good hitters counts
  7. I thinkn we're in for a 8-7 18 extra inning game
  8. Lol silly you gotta save hiim for 3 run leads in the 9th HE'S THE CLOSER silly
  9. I know when i'm in a high leverage situation where the game is in the balance I don't want to use my best reliever
  10. If there ever was a time to bring in Marmol, this should be it.
  11. Why, why why why why why all you had to do was not walk the pitcher
  12. Here comes the 3 run donger THROW SOME STRIKES DUDE
  13. Thats not fair, Derrek Lee hasn't even played the whole month of May Wait, he has? Crap.
  14. Geo being gunned down is disappointing but still its not like last year where we are certain to never have another opportunity to score again, lets just hope we can keep the Pirates down a bit.
  15. He's in a bit of a cold spurt. Thank god, this lineup before couldn't take either one of Lee or A-Ram hitting last year, but now with so many role players playing so well they keep chugging along. Its...*sniffle* just so damn beautiful
  16. Gameday shows that strike call as fairly sketchy
  17. I hate that distinction so much. Baseball stats would be so much better off if we stopped arbitrarily dividing between "earned" and "unearned" and "hits" and "errors." I think there's a use for those stats, though. If there's a runner at 2nd with 2 out, and the pitcher throws a routine ground ball, and the fielder airmails the throw to first and the runner scores, that isn't the pitcher's fault. Theres a use for RBI as well, but it doesn't mean it should be a mainstream and important stat The fact that you brought up a marginal and rare occurrence to defend it makes me want to get rid of errors all the more
  18. I hate that distinction so much. Baseball stats would be so much better off if we stopped arbitrarily dividing between "earned" and "unearned" and "hits" and "errors." Agreed wholeheartedly. Does OBP count errors in their equation or are they "outs"?
  19. Bleh, I don't want to lose this series With Insta-Loss Marquis next thats a scary proposition
