  1. Andrew Miller reincarnation. I didn't even know Andrew Miller was sick.
  2. Heyward couldn't buy a vowel on Wheel of Fortune. ...Buck jumped the gun on the "what a play" call there. Too bad!
  3. It was probably only here in Denver, but they were playing a local ad over the first two pitches.
  4. What in the...hell...they just cut off two pitches from the broadcast!?
  5. He's still progressing, though. He'll get there. Thankfully, we have an insane amount of team depth to do exactly that next year. He should still be staring 5 times a week, regardless.
  6. Man. Was too busy at work to look up anything about the game today. Get home at 5:50 mountain, do a few chores and sit down for what I think will be the first pitch...bottom of the second?! THE SCHWARBS!!!!!
  7. Quick, lock Baez into a room with that machine for 13,000 pitches over the off-season Just make sure you put a number on it. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g246/sey115/sey115105/10.jpg_zpsliydj9vo.gif
  8. The Cubs have absolutely no chance of winning this game if the zone continues to be called like this.
  9. ...so this ump seriously is supposed to have one of the smaller zones in baseball?!
  10. http://www.theonion.com/article/cubs-fan-ready-get-completely-drunk-again-only-2-d-54528
  11. 40-1 odds that he hits the first homer in the series. Tempted to put some money down on that. Those odds seem ridiculously high. Prop bets are usually sucker bets because odds are rarely good. That almost seems like a mistake. I would've guessed 10-1 tops. Doubt you can still bet those odds. On ESPN 1000, Tom Waddle just made a $100 bet on that prop. Wow. Soft line.

  12. Yeah, it is. I also said that people might want to pump the brakes on him being some sort of magical beast of destruction but I get that reading is a difficult skill to master. Get the horsefeathers out of this thread eeyore. Schwarber. Corrected.
  13. "Jesus." "Holy Lord." There is but one God, and his name is Kyle Schwarber.
  14. Do you know who Kyle Schwarber is?! Yeah, he's a guy who was medically cleared to hit but not play the field and has had his knee reconstructed 6 months ago, and had a handful of ABs in AZ against high-ceiling, lower level pitching. Unless you completely believe he's a generationally great hitter, he's not going to step in after that long of a layoff and be crushing the ball against major league pitching of the Indians' caliber, and I don't particularly give a horsefeathers how unpopular that opinion is. A generationally great hitter could struggle for two ABs even if he had been playing for 900 straight days. You aren't saying anything all of us don't already know. ...but he is totally going to dong, and immediately, because Kyle Schwarber.
  15. Adam Dunn could play in right and bat one-handed and still put up a higher WAR than the current version of Heyward we have. (I'm only joking about the one-handed part.) This devotion to defense, for an outfielder, above all else, is starting to creep me out.
  16. GROSSSSSSSSS http://mlb.nbcsports.com/2016/10/24/world-series-umpiring-crew-announced-hi-joe-west/
  17. Can I take these as a "no" apiece? Balls with exit velocities below 10 mph rarely become HRs. Balls in play that do not have a high exit velocity tend to be run down more easily. Hitting the ball hard is good. It is known. http://m.mlb.com/news/article/161576128/statcast-exit-velocity-correlates-to-success/
