    Tell me, what is Dolis's appeal? He was never particulary good in the minors, he doesn't strike out anyone despite a high 90's fastball, he walks an absurd number of people despite striking out no one. Why this team even entertained the idea of using him as a high leverage/closer type is absolutely baffling. Can anyone think of a worse pitcher who a team has tried to use as their closer?

    Throwing a baseball over the plate is hard.
  3. Tryptamine
    ....walks a guy trying to bunt and then strikes out red hot McCutchen. Baseball is confusing.
  4. Tryptamine
    Way to walk a guy trying to give you an out [expletive].
  5. Tryptamine
    He tried being patient and got screwed over by a bad call.
  6. Tryptamine
    Sure would have been nice to have that 3-0 count so he had to throw a fastball, unfortunately the middle of Starlin's shins is the bottom of the strike zone apparently.
  7. Tryptamine
    Nice send Listach, he was only out by say 20 or so feet.
  8. Tryptamine
    Nice slide Maholm. Jesus christ show a little bit of effort to avoid the tag.

    The Red Sox desperately need someone in their rotation. Is there anyway the Cubs could pry away Lavarnway? If that's unrealistic then what about Jackie Bradley?

    Blue Jay's #1 prospect Travis d'Arnaud has hit 7HR in his last 10 games to go along with a .924 OPS. As soon as the Jays do whatever it is they're going to do with Arrencibia, I could see d'Arnaud come up and put together a career like McCann.

    I'm sure the average fan would be pissed off, but I'd be absolutely thrilled to potentially have the #1 and #7 in next year's much stronger draft. If Giolito signed great, if he didn't that's completely fine too.

    Theo himself has said that the farm lacks impact/super star caliber players. Zunino is as safe a pick as you're going to find and getting an above average catcher has a ton of value, but I don't think that's going to be the target based on Theo's comment. I strongly believe it's going to be Giolito if the throwing sessions look decent.

    Baez with 2 400+ ft bombs according to AZ Phil.
  14. Tryptamine
    awww come on let him finish the inning.
  15. Tryptamine
    Nice, one more.
  16. Tryptamine
    Don't cut to commercial....
  17. Tryptamine
    How did that get out?
  18. Tryptamine
    Sveum wtf are you doing? edit: forgot Sveum was thrown out

    He's gotten even worse hanging around with Hawk. Pretty much. Any time anything ever has to deal with the Cubs, Stone will find a way to take a shot at them. I'm still waiting for Castro's hitting to slow down as Stone claimed it would a few years ago.
  20. Tryptamine
    It's one of those games where the Cubs continue ripping the ball with no results and the opposing team is hitting flares left and right. Absolutely frustrating.
  21. Tryptamine
    I would absolutely love to hear the justification for that call. Cleary Castro should just spear the next guy going into second and hold him down until he's tagged.
  22. Tryptamine
    Apparently you can knock people off the bag now. What a horseshit call.
  23. Tryptamine
    Any chance Peavy gets warned before the game tomorrow? Looking at how pissed off he was in the dug out it's pretty clear he's going to drill someone.
  24. Tryptamine
    Once again Barney shows that he's the most deceptively slow player in the league.
  25. Tryptamine
    I've got Konerko as well and now I'm terrified either Castro or LaHair will be joining him on my DL with Kemp/Howard etc.
