I had that except for Washington OF vs. Boston, and lost like 10 WAR. That seems off.

I mean, I don't even understand why this was a question, let alone why Cameron said they were bad. They were coming off an 88 win where the won the West, lost nobody and had some decent prospects, a returning Darvish, and a full season of Hamels. Why wouldn't you expect the Rangers to contend? ETA: Wait, this was obviously from 2014 given the Red Sox reference. Even better.

This thread is for the wildcard games

It helps make it more likely they burn their best pitchers just like the Mets and Giants will do. -
Thinking about it now, your best bet is probably just taking the bus north up Ashland will take you within a half mile walk of the stadium

We're thinking of doing the same thing for a wedding (and maybe the NLCS) in mid October. How is the Wicker Park/Noble Square neighborhood right off the blue line? The area is fine, but youre going to have to transfer to another line or a bus to get to Wrigley via public trans

I had this as a foregone conclusion in my mind for so long it kinda didn't click that he was up after the 1st championship.

Fact is a 24 year old likely isn't thinking he's going to die while doing this, especially since they had done it before. And they said he wasn't driving so even if he was drinking it's not the same as what Taveres did. Well, I'm guessing Taveras didn't think he was going to die while doing what he did either. That's an odd defense.

Who taught him the word grudge?

Friday day game please. No, why would we have a Friday day game, when we could have a horsefeathering Monday night.

Considering Stubhub is going for 275 for SRO... They threw some disclaimer on there about only the first email address utilized would be accepted. I can't remember how else they verified entries, address maybe?

Gmail filtered it to Promotions.

Also, am I crazy (and i could totally be wrong), or weren't you playing softball for at least the end of game 4 vs st louis last year? :-" Nope, watched to the last out and showed up late

I've gotta say, I'm pretty surprised to hear that you're choosing a Kanye concert over a Cubs playoff game David. Especially this Cubs team. kanye concerts happen every few years. there will be many playoff games. especially silly division series ones. made these plans and bought the tickets months ago and i'm not gonna bail on a group of 7 other people like some kind of weirdo because i have to watch a baseball game. It's a group of 7 people, they'll be fine. If the NLDS goes 5, I will most certainly be bailing on a concert with 1 other person.

As opposed to all the ways we get knocked out of the playoffs that you won't lose your [expletive] mind? there's just something about the idea of this guy being good for the cubs for like 15 months or whatever A DECADE AGO, then mysteriously being good again as an old man and beating the best cubs team ive ever seen that would be especially infuriating. Ugh I can handle like 1 strikeout looking on that curveball before I'd turn it off.
-
wait what To be fair to the Diamonbacks they had to play the 90 win Rockies and 89 win Padres 19 times each. Meanwhile the Cubs played in the NL Central. I wouldnt say that the Cubs were "on paper" better than Arizona. It is debatable who was better on paper. The only team the Cubs were far and away better than "on paper" of the last 4 playoff losses was the 2008 Dodgers. I forgot how shitty the Dodgers record was that year. Blech.
-
I'm not sure the '03 Marlins at the time were either.
-
Just not a Giants team that pitches Bumgarner on one of the last 2 days of the regular season(And even if he goes Saturday, I could see him going short rest in the WC game.)

I don't understand what this means.

Other games the week of 9/12

TT, Vin Scully is calling this inning on ESPN right now!! Apparently Hunter Pence was a big fan of Seinfeld back in 2014... -
Yeah, and we're not signing Fowler either.

Who will end up with the worse WAR this season?
SouthSideRyan replied to Sammy Sofa's topic in General Baseball Talk
So does Bartolo Colon. -
Is it because you used to be a Cubs fan, Laurence?

Maybe it's the beer but this doesn't really make sense to me Being classy enough to play for the Cardinals instantly raises your BA by at least 40 points. You're thinking of BAC.
