Beat these turds. -
Coomer is probably crunching beers right now.
-
They haven't been this happy about a retirement since the hated David Ross departed.
-
We should trade for him just so he can hang around during the playoffs and get really drunk during the parade again.
-
They're going to be like the Giants and even years, except every year.
-
It took the Cubs 3.5 months to recover from their last hangover.
-
Just start all 9 of our catchers.
-
What about Eloy, though?
-
Start Kyle every game.

Well guys, I was way off. I said we'd be resting for a full week. I didn't realize how drunk Joe was going to be throughout August, though.

Thanks for being just good enough to give us a bunch of great memories from September, Brewers and Cardinals. And thanks for being sucky enough to still be irrelevant like we all knew you were.

I'm trying to decide which NSBB meme I like more between Seal Boy, the Hendricks picture photoshops or the Mad Men gifs.

The Cardinals are 77-63 against the rest of the league and are about to be 5-13 against us.

Zobrist should have the clubhouse attendant take a bottle over to Pham after the game.

I like Gold Gloves and I cannot lie: the Jason Heyward thread
Aaron Kennelly replied to NOLA's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Heyward started to perform a little better in late August and I argued before the September 14 game that it was all fluky because of his line drive %. Basically he was still hitting the ball like a weakling like he had the previous month, but he was hitting balls at launch angles conducive to getting base hits. They were nearly all singles and it was just small sample size noise that he was getting singles to fall in and I said he'd go back to not having them fall in and he'd suck. In 77 PA from 8/22 to 9/13, he hit .290/.351/.362 and had an average exit velocity of 83.9 mph. In 100 PA in the month before, from 7/21 to 8/20, he hit .209/.280/.297 with an 84.9 mph average exit velocity. Heyward started off the year relatively strong before his swing got all fucked up again, and he was hitting the ball hard. In 131 PA through May 25, Heyward hit .256/.336/.427 and his average exit velocity was 89.7 mph. So I argued in the September 14 game thread that he was still broken and had no hopes of contributing the rest of the year since he was still hitting the ball as weakly as ever. Since I posted that, Heyward's hit .267/.405/.533 in 39 PA with an average exit velocity of 90.9 mph. What I'm trying to say is that he is still completely broken and hopeless and he won't have any big hits at all in the playoffs. And he should just pack it in for the rest of the year. -
9/26 The Clinch Game (Arrieta vs Martinez) 7:15 CSN
Aaron Kennelly replied to Andy's topic in Fred Hornkohl Game Thread Forum
Joe managed this game like he drank all of the celebration champagne before the game and is trying to buy himself some time to replace it. -

The Cardinals playoff chances and the number of posts in each game thread followed the same trajectory: Friday: 308 Saturday: 91 Sunday: 44 Let's see if there is a corollary over at brewerfan.net. Thursday: 497 Friday: 255 Saturday: 106 Sunday: 51

Yeah, there's just no way they'd even be considering Lester at anywhere but #4 right now. Unless Joe gives him the nod in Game 1 out of respect of the seat of NLCS MVP.
-
Like I've been saying about them all year...
-
And that's the last time we ever have to think about the Brewers again.
