  1. Magic number on both the Vaunted Brewers and Vaunted Cardinals is #36
  2. At least Grimm won't be available tomorrow
  3. He was the dude that caught Votto's HR ball in the bleachers.
  4. Well that doesn't quite tell the whole story. Molina failed to catch a throw home on a hit off the green monster that scored 2. https://www.mlb.com/redsox/video/betts-wins-it-for-the-red-sox/c-1735745083 First ballot HOFer
  5. Wind must be howling out, O/U is 12 runs.
  6. On the other hand, the Cubs play three times before the Brewers play again and could be up as much as 2.5 games before the Brewers play in Colorado.
  7. They asked Bosio on the Score this morning about Robot umps and he said it would slow the game down. Umps would constantly go under the hood to review a ball/strike call. I don't think he understands the concept of having a "robo" ump call balls and strikes.
  8. With the Dodgers probably finishing the season with a record of 115-47 or something. The Cubs were destined to face the Nats anyway you look at it even if they finished with another 103 win season. I know yesterday sucked as has a lot of games this year, but I still think they can beat Dusty and a crippled Bryce Harper led Nats team. As for the Dodgers, who knows if we would even play them. Anything can happen in the playoffs and yesterday's loss was like an annoying mosquito biting at your leg and that is really it.
  9. No Gio Gonzalez Sunday so the pitching matchups should be in our favor. Nothing short of 2/3 will do.
  10. Hopefully Greinke can't go and they put Tuesday's pitchers in
  11. Probably until midnight if they have to. Dbags aren't in Chicago again, at least until the NLCS.
  12. First 10,000 fans only. PTR wants everyone in early to buy $7 hot dogs and $10 beers.
  13. MLB TV is $18 for the rest of the year. I bought it to watch the Brewers tumble to a 79-83 record
  14. I like the DBacks value more than the Rockies just because of the pitching but the Rockies bullpen can be lights out at times. I have a feeling Arizona is going to be a very tough out for LA if they get out of the coin flip game. yeah, i mean, without even looking at the baseball portion of it, if you're giving me what amounts to +1750 or +1250 (adjusted for their approximate odds of getting past the WC round) on an NLDS team, i'll take it. it's +EV. prob still gonna lose, obviously, but at least you're getting a worthwhile payout if it goes your way. Bet them both at +2500 and +3500. Then if one gets to the NLCS hedge, and if they get to the WS hedge again.. The only way you would lose money is if they get bounced in the NLDS. Bet $100 on Coloardo at +3500, bet $100 on Arizona at +2500 =$200 investment. Now this is just a guess.. Lets say Arizona gets to the NLCS against the Cubs (who are a -150 favorite). you lay $600 on the Cubs, if the Cubs win you get $400 for a profit of $200 after hedging. Lets say the Diamondbacks win and play the Yankees who are a -150 favorite. You bet $1200 to win $800 on the Yankees . Yankees win you profit $400 Or the Diamondbacks win you win $3500 minus your headging $2000 = Profit of $1500 If my math is correct the following happens with either Arizona or Colorado(obviously if its Colorado winning the WS your total profit is $2500 not $1500
  15. this is about as little i've cared about what we traded away in any trade one of my teams has ever made A close second to Will Perdue for Rodman
  16. I will laugh when Arizona/Colorado bounces them in the NLDS.
