  1. Howard with a clean sheet in his premiere league send off, now that the Everton mutiny is over. Good finish to a good career.
  2. This bozo is on the score right now doubling down on these comments
  3. i think you're in teh same camp as me on this...i don't hate vin scully at all. i just think he's a senile boring old man as an announcer, and, for whatever reason, the whole baseball world pretends he isn't. Yeah, the guy was one of the greats, and has a great voice, but most of his announcing is just rambling nonsense at this point and so many people act like he's still at the top of his game. The guy should have retired a long time ago. CUBS WIN. this sounds like you are describing our own former broadcaster all the way down to the "Cubs win" at the end
  4. This is like 2008 when we crushed the Pirates a crapload of times early in the season. Except those Pirates blew and these Pirates are probably really good.
  5. C - Molina 1B - Jaso (1B was hard, nothing against him but his hair) 2B - Murphy SS - Peralta 3B - Carpenter LF - Braun CF - Eaton RF - Pence BN - S. Rodriguez BN - Piscotty BN - Cervelli BN - Holliday BN - Puig BN - Cespedes SP - Wainwright SP - Samardzija SP - Lackey SP - Wacha SP - Liriano RP - Papelbon RP - Familia RP - Kimbrel (I blame him for 2011 Cardinals WS) RP - Rosenthal RP - Melancon RP - Reserved for Jose Valverde in case of return to MLB Manager - Dusty Baker
  6. Hmm C: Cervelli 1B: Hosmer 2B: Phillips SS: Danny Espinoza 3B: Matt Duffy OF: Braun OF: Carlos Gomez OF Sean Rodriguez SP: Bumgarner I'm guessing you were purposely picking no Cardinals because if you could pick Cardinals and didn't name Molina your catcher...
  7. 8 IP 2 ER 11 K and I guarantee the national story of this game will be "Jake gave up 2 runs he's human!"
  8. He's the kind of guy you call an innings eater because you don't have anything nice to say about him
  9. Haha now they can't hit Jake unless they want the bases loaded for Fowler
  10. Bucsdugout is hilarious. A majority of their guys are convinced that HBP was 100% intentional
  11. Haha Cervellis 2 run single was more runs than the Pirates scored off Jake in his last 5 starts against them combined. 3 batters later the Rizzo erases that
  12. Yes, Hayward. You know, that guy we signed away from St. Louis ?? I think he's saying its Heyward. Maybe. Yep but Fred is usually on top of his ish so when he still didn't catch it, I figured there was something I was missing
  13. Wow a couple of veryclose takes by Bryant there
  14. Hayward? Yes, Hayward. You know, that guy we signed away from St. Louis ?? Am I missing an inside joke here?
  15. Or just mortal Jake. Ace pitcher but like any pitcher his mechanics and command can go from time to time.
  16. I forgot how bad Miggy can be at catching a baseball
  17. Well the sun is expected to die and destroy all life on Earth in about 5 billion years so...maybe?
  18. Haha, they probably would have scored both times if they were sent. Not that it wasn't the right move to hold them.
  19. They probably shouldn't have lost to the Wild last year. They blew a 2-0 series lead to the Blackhawks the year before. This year they blew a 3-1 series lead and were tied heading into the final period of Game 7. I think the choker label was justified.
