    If I had won the World Series, I would have done the exact same thing. Maybe would included a little image Derek Law crying just under the S in CHAMPIONS. Just saying.

    Had to listen to this on the radio because of work and it's a wonder I didn't crash my car with all the yelling and fist-pumping I was doing. That comeback was such a unique sports feeling. The actual game was like a depressing kick in the nuts and for worthless pessimists like me, I was already over the game for an hour or so and mentally preparing for a do or die Game 5 when all the sudden we went from that to 'oh yeah the series is over' in the span of 20 minutes. I mean Game 7 had a similar emotional roller coaster to a greater degree of course, but this was more like I was dreading having to wait 2 days with my stomach in knots for this do or die game and then all the sudden the weight is completely lifted. I think I'm pretty even keel, so I was spending some effort trying to make bets with various irrationally pessimistic Cub fans... :twisted:

    It's a real shame that a majority of people won't think to themselves "man, what could have been!" in that game 7... ...are you serious?!

    They already did Montero last year. If you want pain, you can just watch drunk Bill Murray interview J-Hey in the clubhouse after the World Series on a loop.

    Schwarber wears number 12 and was out 4 months. 12x4=48. but it was actually a little more than 2 months more than that and 48-2=46 holy. horsefeathers. And take back one kadam to honor the Hebrew God whose bat this is.

    Rizzo's got some nice gams, and his hair looks MUCH better there than the previous N'Sync-era Timberlake look he was seemingly rocking before. Bryant needs to make some fat stacks off of a Proactiv endorsement, stat. http://gifrific.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/Chris-Farley-Sunglasses-Flip-Shock.gif

    i'll never understand how this is allowed. Its because they have always allowed a pitcher's foot to leave the mound for an instant before they release the ball to the plate, so long as it was a part of their natural throwing motion. That slippery slope situation has lead to...this atrocity.

    Sad trombone! http://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/18684594/st-louis-cardinals-pitcher-alex-reyes-sore-elbow-mri

    Hendricks and I share equally pale and spindly legs. Neato. Also, that photo with what looks like Strop in the rear-view reflection is a really really good photo.
  10. JudasIscariotTheBird
    Schwarber in a cage, listening to rage. Hell yeah. This is a badly needed Spring Training.
  11. JudasIscariotTheBird
    :shock: I cant believe I just watched that whole thing. What a sad sad man. Yeah, that makes zero sense. Even if sports were in fact scripted, it's quite an assumption to think that the orchestrators of said plot would leave all these clues for this dingleberry to figure out. Just like the Bond villians explained their plan while he frees himself from restraints. Oh well, that guy is a maniac. Though I might make a bet on his next pick if the odds are right You wouldn't think it, but modern-day Nostradamus is really chalky.
  12. JudasIscariotTheBird
    I think we see Zobrist for about 40 games in RF this year.
  13. JudasIscariotTheBird
    This is my favorite thing. By a lot. Thank you SO much!
  14. JudasIscariotTheBird
    Meh...he was a mid .700s guy in the minors. Maybe he figures things out a bit and does better, but doesn't seem unreasonable. ...I'm going to take the over.
  15. JudasIscariotTheBird
    I know that Almora isn't a world beater at the plate, but a .650 OPS? Presumably with most of those 200 ABs against lefties? Jeez.
  16. JudasIscariotTheBird
    I just want the dood to be able to fake being spry. Sue me.
  17. JudasIscariotTheBird
    There is no way that a guy that hits from the same side as Heyward and Schwarber and isn't an especially good defender gets that many ABs in the OF. Barring injuries, 0 chance. He would need to be starting in CF nearly every game against righties this season. Do you think that is reasonable? EDIT: Did not realize Jay was a switch hitter. I still think its way high, but I no longer think its insane. REEDIT: He isn't a switch hitter. But has reversish splits. Yes I expect Jay to get most starts in CF against righties. I doubt Almora will play his way into too many starts vs. same handed pitching. I think at least a third of the right handed pitcher games will have Heyward in CF with Zobrist or Bryant in RF. And those will be dictated by the best defensive alignment behind whomever is on the mound for us.

    These seem like reasonable totals at first glance. Maybe a touch high with all the mixing and matching Joe will do.

    Some dood spotted that Contreras's defensive value was too insanely low to be believed, and there actually was an error. Not sure when it was corrected. Also, they have Jon Jay projected to get 450 PAs (200 for Almora) and Baez somehow has negative defensive value...and only 133 PA at 2B (for a total of 438, less than Mr. Federalist). Relief ERAs seem a touch high across the board. There are issues.

    Looks like the injury transformed him into a gym rat...that's cool, but can someone point him toward an elliptical, please? At least a treadmill, maybe?

    I spent a lot of time pumping up the post count on that thread. Good times.

    Bronson is also basically just a vehicle for Tom to show the world that you don't deserve him.
