  1. Happy to see Tony Carr get drafted. No idea how much playing time he'll get, but it's cool to see a Penn State guy get his name called
  2. In 2015, the Cubs went 3-3 against the White Sox (76 wins), 1-3 against Detroit (74 wins), 3-3 against Miami (71 wins), 2-5 against Philly (63 wins) and 3-3 against San Diego (74 wins). The 2015 Cubs won 97 games that year. In 2016, the Cubs went 3-3 against Atlanta (68 wins), 2-2 against the White Sox (78 wins) and 2-4 against Colorado (75 wins). The 2016 Cubs won 103 games. In 2017, the Cubs went 2-4 against San Diego (71 wins). The 2017 Cubs won 92 games. Dude, consider who you're arguing with
  3. Well if Hendricks truly can't go more than 75 pitches without falling apart, he's not nearly as valuable as we think he is
  4. This draft pick does nothing the move the needle for me. Can't imagine watching much Bulls basketball again this winter
  5. Whoever was asking when Rosario was going to turn back into a pumpkin....
  6. So who does Cleveland take? Seems a few good players just fell in their laps
  7. My best friend is a lawyer in Pittsburgh and gets luxury suite tickets every summer. Went to a fun game last season where the Cubs scored like 5 or 6 runs in the top of the 9th to steal the game
  8. Is the Cubs feed having problems? The Reds broadcast is a stuttery mess, occasionally interrupted by:
  9. "Cincinnati is a baseball town" they say. A baseball town where no one goes to baseball games
  10. Unfortunately the rain system that hit Cincy earlier is dumping on me now
  11. My dad was laid up in bed for several weeks with some sort of nerve thing in his back. I'm glad I wasn't there to bring him to the doctor (my mom and sister said he screamed in agony and sobbed getting in and out of the car)
  12. Looks like there's a window from 7pm-10pm (EDT) to get this game in
  13. I sprained my foot 15 years ago and it still aches from time to time. Sucks
  14. It feels like Argentina is playing two men short right now
  15. Unfortunately, I think the length of the tournament coupled with the timing at the end of the club season is leading to a lot of teams conserving energy and sitting on 1-0 leads. Should be even worse with 48 teams. This is a 0-0 game, and the player just missed. Wide open. Could be fatigue, could tension. Who knows, but a couple of seemingly easy goals just completely missed
  16. I'm fascinated by professional soccer players' ability to miss a wide open goal, straight on from 20 feet away
  17. It's been raining in Ohio since March. It just won't stop
  18. I was an NL purist for a very long time, mostly due to my annoyance of having a sport that is based on players having "two-way" skill sets watered down by "one-way" players, and the myth of the NL having "better strategy". The truth is, most NL managers suck at this strategy and make terrible decisions all of the time
  19. What's the logistical difference between four 8-team divisions (plus a bunch of wildcards) vs. eight 4-team divisions (a la the NFL) with fewer wildcards?
  20. That's....a lot of wild cards
  21. I have a really bad habit of turning on these games after all the goals have already been scored, only to watch an hour of scoreless soccer
