  1. For real not in the lineup for either of these double header games? **edit nm I guess he did play in the first one. Seems like they could have put him in left for the second game, I guess catching could be pretty taxing on your body makes some sense to take the second game off. If they are doing intensive framing practice with him it probably makes sense to not have him playing catcher every day. That's a lot of time squatting without the games.
  2. Oh I thought wrigley for some reason. All that decade stuff last year is still in my head. They should do steroids to honor the era.
  3. Why? To celebrate the start of the previous worst stretch of baseball the team has had? 8 years of suck with the only good year being a sucky strike year?
  4. Cheer up Charlie. Onward and upward. There are more games to play and plenty more to win. Hendricks wasn't too hot in Colorado but that doesn't mean anything. It's probably going to be an amazing weekend to grill meats. May I suggest a nice cowboy steak? http://www.seriouseats.com/images/20110516-cowboy-steak-1.jpg http://www.seriouseats.com/images/20110516-cowboy-steak-5.jpg
  5. Looks like Baez and Alcantara are the busts...does that mean everyone else hits their potential? I'll take it. alcantara was just a last minute addition to the list of prospects. Him not making it in the majors isn't really a bust.
  6. Because it doesn't need clarification. It's irrelevant. what he said. come on people. spring training is over. no room for these errors
  7. Intentionally whacking a ball out of play and deflecting a ball out of play are handled different in other rules, so I don't see why they couldn't be here. I'm not talking about winding up and golfing a ball 15 feet to the vines. what are you talking about? Intentionally tapping it just right so that you know it will stick (rather than just using that glove to catch the ball?)
  8. a buncha first time viewers of a game at wrigley field here today
  9. not a loophole at all. Knocking it in there is in no way shape or form a good idea since you are not guaranteed it will stick there.
  10. Yes you can. Even when the green has sprouted you can often see it but the rule is the same.
  11. the dumbest thing about this is how there has to be an official inquiry by the ump requesting help from others. also, they never reached in and the fact that it touched them beforehand does not matter.
  12. no it's not framing, its bad umpiring. Unknown pitchers don't get calls and umpires suck. stop blaming it all on framing
  13. I think he did but by the time he realized he was screwed he knew he wouldn't get back to 1B before the 1B.
  14. looked clearly out to me and I am pretty sure he's never been faster. He's been "surprisingly" slow the whole time.
  15. not a fan of challenges to plays that look to be called correct live
  16. Frustration for me. We all know KB is better than this, especially that piss-poor final swing. He's getting into his own head. dude it's one game he's going to strike out a ton, in or out of his head Thank God someone's here to tell me it's one game. Jesus, a bit of minor frustration in a game thread is not my referendum on Bryant's entire life. well thank god your psychological analysis was there to solve everything.

  18. EXPRESS WRITTEN CONSENT OF KRIS BRYANT jd is good at his job
  19. the local sports guy who has been in the market since I was a little kid (very long ago). I vaguely remember it being a big deal when he moved from channel 5 to channel 7.
  20. Even if you do miss him and have absolutely nothing against, why would you be the least bit upset with the super stud now wearing that number? I never understood this thought process. It's not an insult to wear a number somebody wore before you.
