  1. I almost wonder if they specifically wanted Wade to pitch to Goldschmidt and Martinez in case they find themselves facing the DBacks in the NLCS. If that's the case, Wade now knows what pitch not to throw Goldschmidt. The answer is "any pitch". You put up four fingers and send him to first base
  2. Woof, this pitcher is chucking some meatballs
  3. I'm pretty sure FlyTheW is either a toddler or was in captivity his entire life.
  4. Bryce Harper is dead* * may not actually be dead, but #nee hurd
  5. Goldschmidt has slashed .359/.469/.719 with a .405 BABIP in his career against the Cubs
  6. Your disrespect for GTA IV will not stand Lester was from V. YOU'RE GONNA BE FIRED FOR THIS BLUNDER. AW POOP
  7. esp bc this a particularly horrible game thread initial post sry derwood Your disrespect for GTA IV will not stand
  8. Yeah, my bad. Sorry man, I gave you as long as I could
  9. the excitable irrational side of me wants him to start from game 1 and thinks we could be surprisingly good if he hits with this defense (with the one horsefeathers thing being fox keeps his job if that happens) the boring conservative side of me wants glennon to play OK the rest of preseason, then play OK enough to lose the job after trubisky gets a few weeks (maybe 4-5) to watch and then maybe glennon has enough value to get traded for a mid round pick. who am i kidding, start him week 1 I don't see any value in giving Glennon starts. This season isn't about wins. Same with Kizer vs Osweiler in Cleveland. Just start Kizer, see if he's good, and if he sucks, draft a different QB next year.
  10. I do believe that if Trubisky shows well in the rest of the preseason that there is no reason for Glennon to start. Either Trubisky is your guy or he isn't, so why not give him as many starts to find that out as possible?
  11. When did Brett Gardner turn into Matt Holliday? http://image.nj.com/home/njo-media/width620/img/yankees_main/photo/18787193-mmmain.jpg http://assets.nydailynews.com/polopoly_fs/1.3115713.1493440568!/img/httpImage/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/article_750/orioles-yankees-baseball.jpg
  12. you know that guy who hates fun and tries to keep other people from having it? don't be that guy if someone is dumb enough to not understand the lens through which you'd look at how trubisky played last night, that's on them. nobody is putting him in the hall of fame or even the starting role yet and the talk about the game doesn't need to be qualified that way. There's a difference between watching and going "hey, that was fun" and "let me post every article and graphic about it". Your'e just setting yourself up for disappointment
  13. You know those fans who read way too much into preseason stats? Don't be that guy
  14. I've always liked college football a million times more than the NFL. The double-edged sword of just 1% of college players making the NFL is that on the one hand, they are the elite of the elite, but on the other, they are also usually the most awful people as well
