mets definitely. especially since they wouldn't have to face degrom (the only guy that is close to being on kershaw/greinke's level) until game 3.
-
matheny nuts for not using rosenthal
-
yeah, if there was ever a time you consider sitting a guy who has reached base nine times in a row it's soler vs lackey.
-
and while we're at it, start Grimm for an inning or two and THEN put in Hammel so he can avoid his usual 1st inning woes you could do that and bat grimm in the 2nd spot and use coghlan to ph for him in the bottom of the first. LOT OF GOOD IDEAS HERE
-
start coghlan at 2b, castro at ss. bat coghlan 2nd. let him bat once in the bottom of the 1st, then take him out, put baez in at ss, slide castro to 2nd. that gets coghlan the one ab he would probably get if he doesn't start, but ensures that it comes against a guy he hits well vs. the plethora of guys out of the cardinals' pen that he doesn't match up well against.

or multiple replays of plays being reviewed or having the pitch count on the screen at all times or not having guys watching their first game of the year working the booth.

let's work on getting shots of who is warming in the bullpen and check swings before we go asking tbs for footage OUTSIDE of the stadium.
-
wainwrights jersey to the HOF after the game?
-
tbs is some amateur hour [expletive]
-
these announcers are just dying to suck wainwrights dick

good job getting Bryant's ab out of the way, jorge
-
man I really wanted to see a Schwarber ph appearance with guys on base vs Lynn...
-
good job backing up molina
-
Basing the quality of the decision making solely on outcomes defeats the purpose of evaluating decision making. 1 man invests $100 in treasuries. 1 man invests $100 in lottery tickets. The first man's decision making is likely better irrespective of whether the second man wins the lottery. i'd definitely classify "hoping for a Ross hit in the 6th inning" under 'lottery betting' was gonna say the exact same thing.

didn't say I wanted maddon fired. didn't say that matheny was a genius. no histrionics. you don't agree that matheny had a better game than maddon? I believe your exact words were "matheny running circles around maddon". Maybe you see that was hyperbole now (going to "had a better game"), but what you said was wrong. Matheny had a pitcher the Cubs couldn't hit. and the moves he made worked better than the ones maddon made (or didn't make). don't get why this is such a controversial position to take. if you'd rather have me say "maddon sucked tonight" and leave matheny out of it, that's fine. obviously lackey, the cubs hitters and an embarrassingly bad home plate umpire were the reasons the cubs lost, but maddon was bad.

can't remember...where you the one that tried to argue that Ross wasn't terrible when he started the year with a bunch of walks because he was hitting in front of lester? Yes I understand David Ross murdered your family, it doesn't make you sound any less like a crazy person i swear i remember him being a much better poster years ago. was he always like this? dude I wanted to pinch hit for garbage hitting David Ross...is that sooooo insane.
-
how drunk are you? none. what am I wrong about?

Yes I understand David Ross murdered your family, it doesn't make you sound any less like a crazy person it's crazy to not want a guy with a .500 OPS taking at bats late in a one run game? explain to me to what's crazy about that. I dint really care that he's the backup catcher but he shouldn't have hit there.
-
lol denorfia? yeah maddon pushing all the right buttons.

How so? well he sure picked the right pinch hitter there.. lmfao I'm sorry, he didn't pick the right pinch hitter? but hey gotta leave Ross in there for his 0-3 and three wild pitches allowed.
-
lol ross.
-
How so? well he sure picked the right pinch hitter there. meanwhile maddon let Ross take his wet noodle to the plate with a runner on base and no outs all so he can catch his best buddy for 2 more innings.

Nope yep
