  1. Caritini also sucks. Not going in to the year with a better backup C was really dumb. I know it’s a move on the margins and kinda a luxury but it’s not hard to do better than Caritini/Yu’s buddy.
  2. Looks at lineup. “Nope” Hey at least our guys will be well rested for the Wild Card game. Who will start that game again? They will be rested sitting on their couches watching because we are still winning this stupid division
  3. Make that 7.90 Ultimately he's only about a year ahead of schedule in terms of what I was expecting out of a pitcher of his age singing that contract, but still, it's annoying as horsefeathers, especially since he dressed it up so all of the meatballs could act like he was kicking ass this year. He’s had moments/stretches like this, but maybe with the age he just sucks now but I bet he figures it out to at least be a 3.75-4.25 era guy for a good final stretch here
  4. Just bring Chatwood in and let Lester not throw any more pitches since he sucks now
  5. Caring about the Astros in relation to the Cubs seems a bit like caring about the Bulls game the night the Cubs won the world series
  6. Freddy Peralta’s 5+ BB/9 and 90-92 MPH dick shot FBs is plenty capable of letting the Rockies back in this
  7. Seems really promising info today on Yu. Obviously there’s still some obstacles to overcome to get back and he’s still a stupid pitcher and they do stupid things to break all the time but it really seems like he’s going to be back sooner than later and I’m ready for him to shove.

  8. We are due for a vaunted run differential game, today is the day
  9. horsefeathers Wade Davis, we were always right to hate him
  10. I know it's a family board and all but...
  11. Ross does have some extreme splits..... mid .800 ops against LHB and mid .500s vs RHB. But still, LaStella is a travesty at 3B
  12. Score more runs than the other team, somehow
  13. Stupid horsefeathering game, stop being dumb Joe. Go get em tomorrow and win idiots
  14. Yeah, more often than not the lineup doesn't matter too much given the talent they have, but then sometimes you get games like this where it's baffling even before the first pitch. Quit dicking around and trying to be too clever for your own good, Joe. Agree, we have so many good hitters and options that largely lineup configuration shouldn’t matter (and it doesn’t overly matter anyways in general) but Joe keeps running out lineups that somehow figure out a way to be sub optimal despite the roster being built with almost good hitters everywhere. He’s like handicapping things for the other team by doing this horsefeathers and putting us in a hole.
  15. It’s one game and in the grand scheme it won’t matter and you never want to take too much away from an individual game, but this is just really annoying to lose to a horsefeathers team and Joe to keep running out lineups, managing the pitchers/bullpen, etc like it’s September and we have the division won and we are just going through the motions until the playoffs get here. Optimize the lineup for once and manage the bullpen/pitchers aggressively to go win the [expletive] games when they are easily in reach.
  16. He absolutely should’ve been pulled and that was the right move, not PH’ing for him was idiotic and Chavez should’ve got a clean inning, then Joe just decided 3 runs was too much to overcome and decided to put in the worst possible relievers
  17. What?? Joe managed to make bullpenning this game NOT be our best chance I mean you’re just so wrong here I don’t know where to even begin
