    I don't know if Theo Epstein is a baseball legend because he took a "cursed" team to a World Series win. By that logic, I guess Kenny Williams is a baseball legend too. As for the story lines, were trying to win a World Series, or at least return to relevance, not make a movie.

    Hopefully he knows when he's not wanted anymore, or too busy in his meeting with Mr. Rickets to know.

    Rendon went #6 this year, I do believe. There was also a ton of talent in last years draft.

    Whatever happens, I hope it happens quickly so we can get on with the more important things.

    Him turning a job down over half a decade ago when the A's were still a perennial contender really has nothing to do with anything anymore. Plus, at the time, the Red Sox looked good but not great and The A's farm system seemed to be the equivalent of what The Rays is now, constantly pumping out stars. Every time the lost a guy, it seemed someone took their place. They also had a rotation looked like it could have been as good as the Braves of the 90's.

    I love that the Cubs are the proverbial prettiest girl at the ball, but don't tease me like this. They are more like the sluttiest girl at prom. The new guy is guaranteed to get laid that night, but if things aren't handled the right way, things can get crazy in a hurry, and he may wind up regretting that prom night the rest of his life. So you're saying the Cubs have herpes? Next thing you know you get her knocked up, and out comes a baby Alfonso Soriano and all of the sudden, your once promising life is derailed.

    I bet if you call B2B, he'll be able to work in A Gon.

    Dan [expletive] Johnson, Evan [expletive] Longoria, Nolan [expletive] Reimold, Robert [expletive] Andino, and of course, Jonathon [expletive] Papelbon.

    OK, so the Marlins are looking for a veteran starer. They are willing to trade Nolasco. So trade Zambrano for Nolasco, nd figure out the money from there. End of story.

    Yeah, but watching them get dumped in 3 games after fighting and clawing their hearts out to get there might be more satisfying than if they hadn't made it at all.

    welcome to 5 pages ago, whaaa whaaaaaaa :wink: biggest collapses in mlb history: 1. 1995 angels 2. 2011 red sox 3. 2007 mets 4. 1951 dodgers 5. 2011 braves Interesting, I didn't know the Red Sox ranked that high. Is there a link? he discusses the angels and dodgers in the article you posted, and also mentions the mets as being 99.8% likely in 2007 (they blew it to the phillies). the red sox were 99.9%, according to the graph posted by soccer10k. the dodgers were 99.74%, and this year's braves were 99.64%. Everyone likes to harp on the '69 Cubs, but I believe they may have officially been blown out of the top 10.

    Do both The Braves and Red Sox jump into the top 10 choke jobs of all time?
  14. Little Slide Rooter
    I wonder if The Red Sox got to their locker room and turned on the TV just in time to see Longorias home run leave the yard.
  15. Little Slide Rooter
    I can safely say that this is the first time I've enjoyed baseball since sometime in May.
  16. Little Slide Rooter
    I was thinking that too. My thoughts were that as soon as Boston lost, Girardi gave his pitcher the meatball signal. I dont think anything in October will be able to top this evening.
  17. Little Slide Rooter
    Holy [expletive] cakes, that was like the most intense night of baseball ever.
  18. Little Slide Rooter
    Whatever. The only thing the Cards have that the Phillies don't is Albert Pujols. I'll be beyond shocked if the Cards move on.
  19. Little Slide Rooter
    They say every season, you win 62 games and you lose 62 games. Then Astros scoff at that nonsense.
  20. Little Slide Rooter
    It might be wise to let Utley and Rollins have the rest of the night off.
  21. Little Slide Rooter
    Can't imagine a more fitting way to end this season than a 9-2 loss to the freaking Padres. RIP and good riddance to the 2011 Chicago Cubs.
  22. Little Slide Rooter
    Hypothetically, if either of these come down to a 1 game playoff, can't they just stock their 40 man rosters with anyone they can get their hands on?
  23. Little Slide Rooter
    How bad will that suck for the Rays if they lose 7-6 after being down 7-0 and the Red Sox end up winning a 7 inning 1 run game?
  24. Little Slide Rooter
    Hopefully it's both of their last games as Cubs, so more power to them.
  25. Little Slide Rooter
    Not sure why The Phils still have Hamels on the mound. You'd think they'd want him nice and fresh for game 3 along with most of the regulars. Besides, wouldn't they want to play the D Backs over The Cardinals who may not scare the Phillies, but there's something to say about a team full of momentum from winning a playoff spot at the last minute.
