  1. Hey they get the Saturday night primetime slot if there's a game 7 in the ALCS!
  2. lmao, this Mets fan on that board is going to be in Chicago next week and bought tickets to Sheffield Ave Skybox rooftop for $200 so he could go to the game.... From their website:
  3. I actually love that website and thread other than using derogatory words. Let them be cocky jackasses, we will do the same. Let them point out things like "we're a different team now" and ignore that were a different team now, I'm sure there is something similar that we do. They are the White Sox of New York and it seems like they have the inferiority complex to match. I don't know enough about their fan base but it sure seems like they have the same demographic stereotypes that Sox fans live with as well, true or not.
  4. Welcome back. Does this mean FDB is a possibility?
  5. Agreed on everything but rotation. http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=all&stats=sta&lg=all&qual=0&type=8&season=2015&month=0&season1=2015&ind=0&team=0,ts&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0 Well Snydergaard wasn't in the rotation the first couple of months and Harvey was shut down for a few starts right?
  6. Not great donging conditions this weekend in New York with temps likely to be in the 40s in an already spacious park. Of course the Cubs are very good at donging and don't care about stupid conditions so let the dongs commence
  7. God, the only mets fan I know managed to text me to talk trash 30 seconds after the final out.
  8. How would the rotation look if the mets pull it off? Assuming Lester vs Harvey Arrieta vs Snydergaard Hendricks vs deGrom Hammel vs Matz
  9. Is the series more compact than previous years? I can swear pitchers have started 3 times in a 7 game series. Perhaps they pitched on shorter rest the second and third times.
  10. Maybe I'm dumb but I can't wrap my head around the decision to start Lester over Arrieta. I guess the only thing is that Maddon thinks Jake is gassed and could benefit from an extra day of rest and is concerned enough that he'd rather Jon be in line to start G1-4-7 rather than Jake. Otherwise I'm not sure why you wouldn't maximize the opportunities to start a pitcher on a historically dominating run until his most recent start.
  11. Ivy doesn't look like it's going to really start changing colors for a couple more weeks yet. Probably highly dependent on the first frost Which will be this weekend. I think I saw lows in the lower 30s two nights. Once it starts to go it goes quickly
  12. Good question. Cold weather usually hurts the offense, which sucks because we'd have our 2 best pitchers going anyways (and 2 of their best pitchers). I think that plus the no Greinke until game 3 and Kershaw likely on 3 days rest again in game 1 pushes my preferences slightly towards wanting to play the Dodgers. Also #RoadBryant went 2-7 with 3K and 2BB at Citifeld this year and 2-12 with 8K and a 2 run HR at dodger stadium. Means pretty much nothing I know
  13. Yeah in 2003 IIRC they had 1-2 games where the NLCS and ALCS were played at the same time
  14. Per Twitter games 1 and 2 will start at 7:07 CT
  15. Yes. This thread needs a lot more dejected Cardinals photos. A lot more.
  16. David how the heck are you able to celebrate around wrigleyville, post here and surf gatewayredbirds for comments among other things. You sir are a world class multi-tasker
  17. Am I missing something with Bako? Welcome to the board also!
  18. I guess Maddon was right when he said that we don't start stuff but we'll finish it. Consider it finished.
  19. They just showed it on CSN. it's definitely there.
  20. Hey Kyle, how many days has it been since a Theo team won a playoff series?
  21. RONDON WITH MORE FUNNY! (Came up from behind miggy and made funny faces while he was talking)
