  1. Yes, with the 3-2 count Len said, "you gotta try to make something happen here" and I believe JD agreed.
  2. The rule says you can have 26 guys for both games, so it does not make sense that they would call up a 26th man specifically for game 2. I am guessing you are right, but maybe there is a rule that says you can use a 26th man in game 2 if the DH was scheduled under 48 hours?
  3. I agree that all of what he's saying is ridiculous...that said, I wouldn't go quite that far. Of all three being long term starters for the Cubs? I don't think it's that much of a stretch. Based on their skill-sets, the track records of the guys who picked/signed and are now developing them, and their own overall track records, in this particular case, I think the odds are higher than like 8% or however much lower it is now that we're 2 weeks in. It's 3 different guys of varying ages/timetables and injury histories; I just don't think it's ever going to be a smart idea to reserve the entire outfield for them at any point. Maybe it's just me but I think something is being lost in translation here. Counting on those three to fill the outfield is incredibly stupid. The odds of them succeeding together are very low. But they are probably still higher than the odds of the Cubs making the playoffs in 2014. Like 7% is greater than 0.9% kind of thing.
  4. Well I watched the game with my own eyes mister, and let me tell you, he was dealing.
  5. Bunt single that needed review to overturn another out.
  6. the announcers are talking about the plate blocking rule, but the guy was safe with ease and plate blocking did not play a part.
  7. Basically gave the entire history of the Cubs' misery. I guess you have to play to your audience, most of whom probably doesn't even know there is a National League. You are ridiculous.
  8. These guys have been sympathetic and positive on the Cubs rebuild strategy. I haven't heard every word, but no idea where you'd "lose respect".
  9. Never would have figured it would take you this long to hear this story, since it involves baseball, baseball photos and history.
  10. Olt looks like he needs me to run to Duane Reade and pick up his eye drops.
  11. bad throw from catcher, clunky slide from Lake.
  12. Definitely, I thought he was going to consider eating it at first.
  13. He was safe live, and I believe even more safe in replay. Yankees announcers know he was safe.
