  1. someone who is better than Jonathan Herrera probably
  2. He's a decent hitting pitcher, guessing the added chance of him getting a hit with Herrera behind him was more valuable than bunting them over for him.
  3. phew, I was scared Bonifacio was called up and it was him 9th. It's just stupid buckethead
  4. There's one more. I'm not even going look it up, I cant wait The fact that Haren is swinging is not a good sign
  5. There's one more. I'm not even going look it up, I cant wait
  6. Russells AB screwed by that terrible strike 2 call
  7. I didn't actually look at the lineup before the game...this is the third time I've said "WTF?" as a Cub approached the plate.
  8. Dan Haren pitched against the Giants in SF in May. His line: 7 IP, 2 ER, 8 H, 0 BB, 3 K, 0 HR
  9. This. I'm hoping/expecting a much better start than what we've seen from him so far. Will it be good enough to beat Bumgarner? We will see.
  10. Just wanted to confirm that with numbers ERA: MB: 3.02 JA: 2.22 FIP: MB: 2.85 JA: 2.58 K/9: MB: 9.5 JA: 9.2 WHIP: MB: 1.04 JA: 0.98 WAR: MB: 3.1 JA: 5.5 Fairly similar but looks like Jake has been significantly more valuable
  11. Oh well we lose. Let's beat up on Bumgarner tomorrow. Sorry to SSR that his 80 game win streak will not be realized.
  12. No one should ever be able to wear glasses on a baseball field after Chuck McElroy perfected the look. It will just never be topped so no one should try.
  13. Like I said earlier today. If the Cubs play .500 ball the rest of the year, the Giants would have to go 27-10 AND the Dodgers would have to go 25-13 for the Cubs to not make the playoffs. So unless you are concerned that the Cubs are going to absolutely collapse or both the Giants and Dodgers are going to get ridiculously hot (don't forget the teams still have several games against each other so each one is a loss for one of them), it's not yet a concern
  14. I can't believe that as we stand here in late August 8 games ahead in the loss column to the closest wild card competitor, that there are people talking about the wild card with concern. I'm not saying that teams have never blown a 7.5 game lead over a 40 game span, just that it's not worth worrying about on a day to day basis until it gets a good bit closer
  15. Anyone know what Schwarbers splits were like in the minors? He's struck out in 52% of his 43 ABs against lefties in the majors (though he does have 2 HRs and some walks)
  16. [tweet] [/tweet] nah Ok I'll admit I forgot about that. But the DP, the K with a runner on third and the botched force out that scored a run also happened.
