  1. Jake still hoping for that 7yr/$200m contract after the season?
  2. ....then the next worst thing would be to score only 1 run, on an RBI groundout
  3. Yeah not really basing it on this start, but he hasn't looked all that great this year, nor has Lackey or whoever our 5th starter is. Lester and Hendricks have looked the best but neither of them are even pitching nearly as well as last year and neither are going deep into games. He's striking out 11+ guys/9 and walking 2.3 w a kind of ridiculous HR/FB rate Today he has given up a couple hard hit balls but also a ton of BABIP crap and the error Damn peripherals look better than my eye test.
  4. Normally being in Coors I wouldn't put much into a bad start from anyone, but Jake and the rest of the rotation (except Lester) might just all suck/be hurt.

  5. How no hockey player has been able to create a real life knuckle puck is beyond me. Don't give me that crap about physics.
  6. Remind me how the extra roster spot works with DH's. Are you allowed to have 26 active guys for both games, or a 26th guy that can be used in one of the games? Assuming the Cubs will bring up a pitcher given how the last week has gone, but possibly would be cool to bring up someone like Candelario for a day if he is eligible in both games.
  7. The Ducks have been good every year for a while but I'd be hard pressed to name you 2 players on that team. I mean just completely off the radar WTF? Getzlaf, Kesler and Perry are pretty much household names in the hockey world. Eaves and Vermette probably on that next tier down.
  8. Good but double header tomorrow kind of sucks
  9. Doesn't the waiver process go through the entire NL first, then the AL? Oh I thought it was just reverse record but I'm no expert
  10. Looks good in a pair of jeans
  11. Jesse Rogers hacking into the Rockies twitter account....Not cool
  12. A little bit. He's still awkward as hell, but he has some decent insight. He seems terrified of the camera and refuses to look into it I don't watch much pre/post stuff. I've literally seen him once for about 45 seconds and that was my one takeaway.
  13. SF, TOR and KC will regret the day they passed on scissors
  14. Wow DePaul landed a 5 star Tyger Campbell. Number 21 prospect in 2018 class. All they had to do is hire his HS coach as an assistant but still impressive grab.
  15. Rain rain come and play Go away some other day Cubs pitchers need a rest And the hitters are a mess
  16. It ended around 1:15 am. I fell asleep on the couch after the 15th, woke up right after the Yankees had won and went to bed, but then bizarrely still kept waking up about every hour thinking the game was still going on and I needed to check to see what was happening. Between went I went to bed after the 12th and when I half awakenly checked the score at 3:45 I must have had a dozen dreams of how the game ended. Most of them had the Cubs winning. Oh well
  17. It's May 8th and the Cubs have 9 home losses. Last year we only lost 24 home games all season
  18. Same here. Anyone know what time this one actually ended? 1:30?
