  1. Jorge and Heyward both dong today, and we mercilessly destroy their pitching in both games so much that we somehow leave this series with loftier expectations than we already have.
  2. Almora needs the daily ABs much more than Jorge. He might be looking better, but he has a long way to go before we can feel comfortable with him hitting at the major league level. I mean, he's a guy that's been making adjustments for several years now, trying to become the complete player we hoped he would be. And he's not there yet. Let him keep developing. We're 25-6. There's no rush. If anything, when Szczur comes up, if you felt that Jorge needed to be sent down, it would probably be Kalish taking his spot.

  4. Let's get up big early so we can leave Hendricks in a little longer than we would normally be comfortable.
  5. I'm so happy Hawk was there to see it. "You gotta be bleeping me."
  6. Good enough to rank fifth among our position players. :lol: And none of the five are Jason Heyward.
  7. Nearly 6 now.
  8. Stop being a bitch. We won take a deep breath and relax. I think we need to patch this panicky part of your emotional code up. http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/inkfish/files/2012/12/67e4e-fishonaline.jpg Tommy was part of the problem; he didn't even get a hit tonight. No post-game snack for him.
  9. Adding +1 on the run differential just will not suffice. We are going to need that 20-run game tomorrow for me to forget about this.
  10. Ugh, now we probably aren't even under-performing our pythag anymore, are we?
  11. Won't somebody think of the run differential!?
  12. Nah, we'll get out of this and tack on three more.
  13. Addi! Getting that OPS where it belongs. He's asserting his blossoming superstar status.
  14. I really don't get how people can be scared when this team is playing, to say nothing of being scared when we are up three runs. We are historically good. We win every game. I will not be scared until we are facing elimination in the playoffs and down at least six runs. I mean, I've expected us to win every game, for pretty much the whole game, in every game we've played, except that stupid Reds game that I didn't see.
  15. If you haven't noticed, we don't lose this year. We could have given up 6 runs that inning and still won.
  16. It's alright, Javy. I still love you. And Pedro is going to strike Kemp out here.
  17. Gleyber was 3-3 with a double, a walk, and a stolen base. Contreras and Almora are both 2-4 with no K's. Almora also stole a base.
  18. Thanks, Jon. Got us an extra inning and did it pretty quickly. That'll do.
  19. A little late to the game thread, but let me just say that I love Javier Baez. We are so damn good.
  20. HR/FB ratios are not crazy predictive. Soler's has a decent chance of going up, especially when the wind blows out. Yeah, looking at LD% and HR/FB% is a little silly right now. I mean, he's hit 24 fly balls all year.
  21. They have to put money in the jar every time they time they ground out. It was full because of Ryan Zimmerman.
