  1. The ESPN radio announcers spent about an inning and a half actively campaigning for Machado to not be signed by anyone because he is such a lazy, loafing player
  2. With 2 outs and RISP, the Red Sox, AS A TEAM, are slashing better than '41 Ted Williams. I wonder what that feels like
  3. Maybe, but batting 9 righties in a row is generally a bad idea no matter what the splits of your hitters are Why? Let's the opposing pitcher get into a rhythm and repeatable approach. Giving him a different look once or twice in the lineup forces him to adjust
  4. How did sitting those guys work out for him? There’s an alternate universe where Roberts started all three guys in both games, they went a combined 1-14 with 8 Ks off Sale and Price and lost all three games, and alternate universe Derwood is laughing at Roberts for not starting righties instead. Maybe, but batting 9 righties in a row is generally a bad idea no matter what the splits of your hitters are
  5. Dave Roberts, lineup wizard, sat his top home run hitters for the first two games because god forbid they face lefties Muncy, Bellinger and Pederson combined for a whopping 15 HR vs LHP. Bellinger had a .681 OPS vs LH and Pederson had a .512. How did sitting those guys work out for him?
  6. and blow it
  7. Dave Roberts, lineup wizard, sat his top home run hitters for the first two games because god forbid they face lefties
  8. Look at those littering slobs
  9. NLDS Game 1 thru WS Game 6 are basically a giant blur to me. The only game I distinctly remember is WS Game 7.
  10. So this week we had games lost on: Missed game-tying PAT Missed game-tying FG Missed game-winning 2 PT Conversion Hail Mary stopped at the 1 yard line Anything I missed?
  11. It’s going to be remarkable to see how Reid loses in the 2nd round this year with this offense. wait, there's a 2nd round? First round bye
  12. Amazes me that people still don't understand how the baseball playoffs work. It’s amazing how you’ve taken “the playoffs are a crapshoot” as a bulletproof trump card over actually looking at team matchups
  13. Weren’t we saying they were the ‘85 Bears like three weeks ago? How did it go south so quickly?
  14. I have no faith that Penn State can beat Iowa
  15. Angels hire Ausmus Reds hire Bell
  16. Do the Dogers eke out a victory, or is this just a 4-0 Boston massacre?
  17. re: OSU A QB going 49-73 for 470 yards and 2 TD and losing by 29.....it's almost unfathomable
  18. Nice of Crawford to turn into Patrick Roy on the night I bring my kid to a game. Jerk
  19. Buckeye run defense looks atrocious
  20. Knew that was coming
  21. Most of us don’t, but a quick search will show you some embarrassing posts with Trout, Harper and Machado trade proposals centered around Almora, Happ, etc. Made by known lunatics and randos. I don’t have an up to date spreadsheet on the known lunatics
  22. You have an incredible gift for incorrect sanctimony, it is your superpower Seriously, we aren't putting those guys in deals for stars... Is there a single player in the cardinals org good enough to headline a deal for KB? Most of us don’t, but a quick search will show you some embarrassing posts with Trout, Harper and Machado trade proposals centered around Almora, Happ, etc.
  23. That's funny, but not any dumber/crazier than every trade proposed on this board that starts with "We can offer some package of Almora, Caratni and Maples for _________"
  24. Is "standing around on defense" the new market inefficiency?
