they had a chance to really push Harvey but they've been so aggressive he's right back at a comfortable pitch count -
you better call that a swing
-
Jackson seems to give up a lot of very solid contact
-
Castro with a Jeter into RF
-
yikes on that swing.
-
Sure, but he got there with ease. If an OF runs very far to get to a fly ball but actually does get there and drops it, it is an error.
-
Miles says it's a hit and an error. don't see how it's a hit. It was a slowly hit ball that was picked up cleanly with plenty of time to throw him out and if the 1B was any good he was out by multiple steps. The error is on the throw, the range was impressive. Thus the hit. Why thus the hit? It was a slowly hit ground ball fielded cleanly and with ease and he would have been out by a mile. Thus, there's no justification for a hit.

Left field?

Mets announcers are apoplectic on the Soriano scoring decisions (hit instead of blatant error)
-
Keith Hernandez is talking about the great crowd at Wrigley right now and that it'll keep filling up. I guess in comparison to Citi Field that may be true.

BA, BP, etc. Cubs Top Prospects List
jersey cubs fan replied to CaliforniaRaisin's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
I just don't see how anybody could realistically and reliably rank guys past the 20-25 range, and even that is a stretch. People are just going to be listing names. You may be better asking for a list of 30 from people and in your consensus see where guys at the back end stack up. -
The goaltender is sometimes very good.

I read this and was like who the eff is he talking about? Man, that took me awhile too. Yay high school Spanish. Should it not be more like Carl Newtown? Is villa really translated to house?
-
nancy boys? Leave it to Texas to bring on the misogyny.
-
Wait, he was recreating an actual play? What a douchebag.

Bears Offseason Thread (Trestman new HC, pg 37)

Given the fact that Jim Miller has been among the group of meatbally Cutler criticizers, I find this hire a bit interesting. -
I liked it.

BA, BP, etc. Cubs Top Prospects List
jersey cubs fan replied to CaliforniaRaisin's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
There are different levels of flawed though. He didn't even make that list on this site that went to 50, and the guys at the back end aren't going anywhere. He wasn't even getting voted on. He got some money, but that was from the previous management group during a period when they were just throwing money at people to make up for lost opportunities. If a guy can't crack a top 50 list for his organization, as a 21-year old after 2 years as a pro, then he's well off the radar of having a meaningful prospect status on him. It's a stretch to compare ignoring him to ignoring everybody past the top 3-5 actual prospects. To be fair, Theo Epstein drafted Rock Shoulders but couldn't sign him the year before the Cubs got him. Perhaps because they didn't think he was worth the $300k that Hendry/Wilken gave him. -

The weirdest part is that it goes to 50. -

That's so incredibly frustrating but completely justifiable. -
Weird to hear a Cubs fan say they don't hate the Mets but I guess that's the norm now. I can't really think of a reason for a Cubs fan in his 20's to hate the Mets. Are we supposed to hate the Mets because of '69? My hatred of them has cooled considerably due to their incompetence and extremely consistent mediocrity of late. It was at its peak during the prime of my childhood, when they were really good for a long time and won a world series right after the Cubs got my hopes up and then fell apart. It was more of a jealousy thing, but that was the 80s. I never really cared about the 69 storyline, and since I've been out here the only thing the Mets have meant is an easy way to see the Cubs. My hatred is reserved for the Yankees out here due to the absurd level of entitlement and sanctimony surrounding everything that has to do with that franchise.

they also only have 3 sports, and the Penguins only switched as an homage to the more successful franchises in the city. one of those being the pirates? when the hell did the color change happen? What he said. The Pirates were good once.
