  1. That's what happens when you allow judgement calls to get reviewed. That's why the other 3 spots don't allow that for the most part.
  2. He hasn't earned PT and I'm pretty frustrated with him and I love what Javy's been doing, but its a bit sad that Soler has lost the majority of his PT. Maybe they should just send him down for a few weeks and let him get his confidence back in Iowa. I know that we are short handed in the OF right now but if Soler isn't hitting, he really doesn't provide much value with his glove or his baserunning, so there's really no point in keeping him up here. A demotion isn't the end of the world. He just turned 24 and didn't have much minor league time to begin with. Despite all the struggles, I believe he still has the potential needed to be a star, but he's not going to get there sitting on the Cubs bench, nor is he going to increase his trade value there.
  3. According to this report: http://sports.yahoo.com/news/source--angels-ace-garrett-richards-expected-to-undergo-tommy-john-surgery-141439002.html No word on whether his 40+ pitch inning against the Cubs has anything to do with this.
  4. It's just one quote, but it definitely seems like the Nats are putting some stock into this series. Dusty tried to downplay the series in the media but you know he's getting his guys pumped up with some of his best fishing stories.
  5. I don't know, he looked like he hit the wrist more when diving at 9:09 and Len even comments that he hopes he's alright Heyward said it happened in Arizona Yeah I remembered that after I posted this. That dive I posted might have aggravated it...sure didn't look like a smooth landing for his wrist.
  6. Since region means like nothing these days Id go with Cincinnati and UConn. No conference should be allowed to have 3 time zones represented among its members. What 3 time zones would there be? The traditional schools are all in the central time zone, and WVU is already in the league as an eastern time zone team. Cincinnati and UConn would both also be eastern teams.

  8. Tonight was the first time in MLB history that four 1st place teams played in the same city on the same night. Not terribly surprising but a cool fact nonetheless
  9. yes. in the ricketts seats. PTR and kenney were with him earlier. They were back with him for the end. They like to go around the park picking up aluminum cans during the middle innings
  10. I feel like the Cubs have blown the shutout 3-4 times in the 9th inning this year
  11. Harper really is going to have a Bondsian OBP isn't he
  12. Fed go deep here to put us at an even +100. I don't want to wait until tomorrow to get there
  13. rondon wasn't even warming up with 2 out and 2 strikes on zobrist Yeah because he warmed during the top of the 8th
  14. Rondon on bullpen phone: Mom I'm gonna have a save chance! What? No really, turn on the TV. *Zobrist happens. Rondon hangs up the phone and slumps into his chair*
  15. Haha Harper will bat with no one on now. Me likes
  16. Rondon should be warming to come in. With as little as he's used he should be able to go 4 outs
  17. Dude horsefeathering throw it somewhere close to the plate Marmol
  18. Might have to face Harper with 2+ in this inning
  19. Richard is a fine loogy. Save your bullpen hate for Cahill
  20. Don't laugh, but Tulane is a rumor. I guess if you're talking about tv markets. Also hearing Cincinnati. Since region means like nothing these days Id go with Cincinnati and UConn.
