  1. a game of telephone involving ron coomer and sontensei is a disaster waiting to happen.
  2. strike 2 to Bryant was a fireable offense
  3. remember like 8 days ago when we were all sucking each other's dicks and being like omg the plan worked cuz the cubs dared to reach the impossible dream of 4 games over .500? so adorable.
  4. stl announcers think matheny left the righty in because maddon would have ph a righty for rizzo against the lefty. you don't deserve a good team you horrible stupid person.
  5. they should have asked the ump if they could literally put the ball on a tee for that ross ab.
  6. having to watch this hillbilly ass missouri commercials is just salt in the wound
  7. mark reynolds being good is the most cardinal thing ever
  8. i can see how the ability to run fast declines with age, and i can see how the ability to hit homeruns would go through ups and downs. i just wouldn't think one's ability to catch a ball in a certain way would deteriorate drastically with age or go through a slump.
  9. stuff like this is why i'm skeptical on this pitch framing business. http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/yadier-molina-forgot-how-to-frame-a-pitch/
  10. yeah suck it white sox
  11. then why not just keep the worse of the 7th/8th starts, seems more judicious than throwing down a huge penalty just for the hell of it why not just not go over the 7 start limit?
  12. i like the idea of boras' rich ass taking the time to bug kris bryant with phone calls every day.
  13. there is no way that is happening.
  14. unless there's some weird scenario where a guy makes an unexpected start.
  15. absolutely. it didn't bother him the first two weeks he was up, but now it does. clearly.
  16. the rule is you lose your best start of the week. you can't go by start times because the 7th/8th start could start at the same time. can't do the three strike thing because it's a pain in the ass.

    don't really think anybody is doing that. some are just hoping he goes to a lot of them. Doesn't the article start by saying how many all star games he's been to as evidence of how good he is? that article is great, shut up.

  19. [expletive] you arod
  20. Lester sucking doesn't make me mad about the Lester signing so much as it makes me mad about the Ross signing.
  21. didn't eaton kinda start it by jawing at ventura for quick pitching him?
  22. it's not as hard to get timely hits when you are facing terrible pitchers.
  23. Probably? I'm fine with Bryant in CF, but was kind of surprised at the lack of response to pulling one of our best hitters so Travis Wood can pinch run, and only then when it became a 3-2 count. That was the weirdest part for me. Was Bryant more likely to hit a double in a 3-2 count or something? Was he thinking the slight delay would work in their favor and against the pitcher? What the hell happened there? i assumed wood was getting loose or something for the first few pitches of the ab. if anything, having a fast runner at 1st would be less important on a 3-2 pitch.
