  1. Let me guess: Joe just compounded an already dumb lineup move and just slotted Almora in hitting second, didn't he? surprisingly no Almora bats 9th, like a 2nd lead off guy!!!!! uggggh
  2. Any word on how yesterday went for him?
  3. Idk, maybe we’re just the best team in the NL
  4. Is this the Browns horsefeathering up again or is there a legitimate reason for Cordons release, other then past indiscretions?
  5. Just reassure their fears: no one likes the Brewers and the front office at MLB has gotta be stacking the deck for a better ratings in the WS.
  6. Wheres Dusty when you need him
  7. That looks helpful Addi
  8. maddon going with the "spare parts win" scheme
  9. Probably want them to win one of those, I think I can see that. Sort of depends on where you think LA will end up or hope they end up. I assume they'll make the playoffs so I'd prefer they just win the division so we don't have to worry about playing them in the WC game if we blow the division. Ideal realistic scenario (I'm assuming only one of Col/Ari make it) is Dodgers win the division and the Rockies get the WC and take out the Brewers. Obviously Col/Ari both making it is ideal because then both the Dodgers and Cards are left out. But I think Arizona is too far back (4 in the division with Colorado's game pending and 3.5 out of the WC, and they'd have to pass two teams in both races) and has too tough a schedule (@Hou, vs. Chi, vs. Col, vs LA, @SD) to get there. horsefeathers this horsefeathers. I'm still aiming for homefield through out the playoffs. keep the dodgers down, screw who gets the the wc. beat them all
  10. You can't prove how much more wacky and clever you are if you do the obvious thing. i don’t even necessarily disagree with the idea behind it, but i think it’s absolutely true that part of the appeal of letting strop bat there is because of how fun it would be and how much the team would like it if he got the run in or even got a hit. joe likes to put his players in unique situations and the players like it too. i have a lot more qualms with letting strop pitch another inning than i do with letting him take the at bat and trying to get a hit. yea. the sandwiched day game at DC with the threat of a hurricane w/o any decency from the MLB front office, I can see Maddon wanting to let them have some fun. And maybe Joe never intended him to pitch anymore.
  11. how often do you think you would have said this a year ago
  12. we cant hit horsefeathers. bat the bullpen and pinch run with Rizzo. Its our only horsefeathering shot at this one
