  1. Great. That's a broken finger on a play that should have never happened.
  2. Now that the Tigers are trading, we will have Avilis as our backup catcher soon.
  3. From the top of this page to here is fascinating to see the huge mood swing.
  4. I was going to ask if when the umps review games - if they do - does he feel stupid for being so animated about being wrong?
  5. he has taken his rightful place also Joe said earlier he was just giving Russell a night off Russell looks a lot better and there's a off day Thursday, under those circumstances he shouldn't be playing vs a RHP at SS over Russell Any chance it's for the tagging ability with Lester on the mound?
  6. I saw Jorge got sent down again. The big thing for the Royals was that he was under control for three more seasons after this one. Now I'm thinking it might have been a blessing for us to get out from the $4.6 million per for a dude who so far has been below replacement.
  7. Having Edwards as a seventh inning guy would be pretty amazing, too.
  8. I've seen Almora and Happ posted several times like they are in the same tier. I think Happ is for sure a tier above Almora. I'd give up Albert as the headliner for Britton but not Happ.
  9. Britton seems to go against the way they view pitchers and health. ETA: although they might view his ailments as a non-issue like they did Wade.
  10. It's the Phillies so it might not even last an inning, but it would be really nice for the Cubs to be rewarded for this weekend by picking up a game. Pfffft the Phillies lockdown bullpen has this horsefeathers on ice now. Any chance you're not being sarcastic, as I don't know anything about their bullpen. Please tell me you are serious. Please?

  12. showing Q some love perhaps? Plus they knew he'd only need eight pitches.
  13. I might be missing something, but why Carl here?
  14. That half inning lasted so long I forgot that all started with two outs and nobody on.
  15. I know people love dongs and I do too, but I love this more.
  16. Quality take. Part of me feels like maybe they woke up for two innings against a clearly struggling pitcher and then went back to bed for the next seven innings, but can't afford to worry about that right now. Need wins and will take them however they have to come. He did bring in all of his top relievers in the middle of the game. Not many people are getting to Britton. Other than Britton, I know nothing about the Orioles' bullpen, so yeah maybe it was some quality guys going against us. Which then wouldn't be so bad.

  18. It wasn't a ton of posts, but a fascinating game thread to read. Just a huge high from people and then some big lows and then somehow more relief than joy over a win. Thought Agony and Ivy set the tone with his sarcasm in several posts while Cubswin11 showed even the biggest of optimists sometimes can lose faith for a quick second. All in all, a good night everyone.
  19. To be candid, the Cubs have done this several times this season where you just want to be able to relax with a five-run lead in the 8th inning rather than watching them give up three or four and have the game-trying or go-ahead run at second.
