  1. Jeff Dickerson has already posted a "Hoyer should be the starter until further notice" article post-win. I can't even imagine how excited he was waiting for the game to end so he could post that
  2. Lackey. I thought I read on Twitter it would be Jake. Think it was Mark Gonzales
  3. 4-0 Giants now. Man Bumgarner/Snydergaard would be a sexy WC game
  4. W - Sammy Sofa (20-6) L - UMFan83 (6-17) S - David (20)
  5. Nor for each other other 4 starters last starts of the year. I think the intensity is ramped down and they just want to get to the damn playoff games.
  6. I knew I shouldn't have yelled "keep that era under 2 Kyle" as he was walking out of the pen. It's on me (as usual)
  7. no horsefeathers. and there's no telling when either is going to happen and a week or two or three of one doesn't mean more is more likely (or less likely) to come. No you don't but there are plenty of teams that got hot in September and then continued to rake in the playoffs. And some that didn't. The whole point was that I'm wondering if I should reevaluate my order of teams that I desire to play based on the fact that the Mets have been playing well and have multiple hot hitters over a team like the Giants who have a poor offense an injured cueto and only one bumgarner start. These opinions aren't static they can change depending on various factors.
  8. You're gonna regret hitting send
  9. No umfan. Don't do it. No stop you know it's a- aghhhh What did I say that wasn't true other than a very simplistic ELI5 explanation? Does Bryant hit .291 every week? No there are some weeks he's roping liners everywhere, somewhere he's very good and others where he makes a bunch of soft contact. I'll await the sarcastic post followed by sarcastic post with a gif followed by one that pretends like you are having a conversation with yourself and then if I'm lucky a serious reply which is why we all love mojo unless he's pointing his gun at you.
  10. Looks like White might have reinjured the same leg as last year.
  11. when are you going to stop believing that hot is a thing (at least in the way that you use it)? especially a thing that will carry into games almost a week away Isn't hitters seeing the ball well or having a great sense of the strike zone a thing? Yes, the way I see it individual players fluctuate between somewhat better than their talent level and somewhat worse. If enough of them are peaking at the right time, they will play above their collective talent level
  12. Stop jumping offsides on 3rd down please
  13. That seems like a bit of a stretch based on what I said. The thread is about which team we would rather play to maximize our chances of winning, not which unstoppable force is going to take down the Cubs Suuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrre it is. *sigh*

  15. I still think id rather avoid the team that's playing the best. But this is just UMFan having too much idle time to worry I'm guessing
  16. Shot in the dark but if anyone is in Cincinnati and looking for tickets, PM me. I have at least 2, possibly 3 I will give away.
  17. Someone resell me on wanting the Mets. Regardless of relative talent you never want to face the hottest team and the Mets are probably that team, on a 27-12 stretch during which they've allowed the least runs in baseball and have 2 scorching hot hitters in Cabrera and Granderson. I know the schedule has been light but they are playing very good baseball and probably have a ton of confidence.
  18. Damn. If Boston could have just handled the Jays things could have been super interesting. Now the Tigers are on life support, the Mariners are about to eliminate themselves and a Jays win tomorrow clinches it regardless. That said if we do get a Tigers win and Jays loss tomorrow the stage is set for the 5 cities in 5 days thing for Detroit
  19. Phew. Would have been mad if Michigan didn't win that one since they outplayed wisky by a bit but missed 3 freaking FGs. 3 weeks till EL..
  20. Hahaha what the hell was that? Nice blast Heyward
  21. This is gonna be a short start for Jon. 57 pitches through 2+ innings
