  1. Whhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. They don't need to win the division to win the freakin' WS. Would you rather her say '[expletive] it, let's splurge. Schwarber and Edwards for the earthly remains of Ichiro!' 'Is Chase Utley still alive? He is? You want Rubi Silva and Brian Schlitter? Well that just won't do. You'll take Pierce Johnson and I won't hear any more of it!' GFD IT you are a GD moron. This might have been one of his worst posts of all time.
  2. Someone post what that Twitter account says about that pitch Edit: was beaten!
  3. Cumulative score the last 6 games: Cubs 19 Opponent 5
  4. Yeah you always have to be a little concerned that he will be BABIP'd to death
  5. I feel like 13 wins when tied or trailing after 8 innings after 80 games is pretty darn good.
  6. I think they were down to 5 Royals on the last ballot and a couple of the positions they held leads in were close.
  7. Man if we could start frequently reaching base again, with the way this pitching staff has been lately we could go on a tear.
  8. Well...Houston sure has improved since they fired his ass I'm playing devils advocate to my own thing (complaining about pitching coach). Correlation does not equal causation. How much of it is the hitting coach and how much is a group of young Astro hitters improving to their expectation level?
  9. 1 hit in 11 innings. Only 7 non-Bryant hits this entire series from the Cubs
  10. I hope Toronto gets their crap together. Although it's fun to laugh at their follies, the NHL is a better league when the Leafs are good. At least I think so. It's been awhile since that's been the case (other than that outlier year where they almost beat the Bruins in the playoffs)
  11. I don't know but when just almost every hitter is underperforming expectations or career norms you have to wonder if something is wrong with their instruction.
  12. Fowler is like Willie Mays Hayes in Major League 2...too many swings with an upper cut to them.
  13. As bad as the offense has been, 5 runs allowed in the last 5.5 games is awesome.
  14. 1 Cubs hit and 3 total base runners (1 hit, 1 BB, 1 HBP) in the 9 innings since Bryant's Grand Slam
  15. Sacrifice flies and bunts don't count as ABs but do count as PAs. So it's a PA where you fail to reach base.
  16. Definitely not when he's still 21 and has played less than 75 career games above AA. He's shown flashes and has too much talent to not succeed imo.
  17. Crap, swap stanton for trout. Guess I'm a little late oh well
  18. Len is a workaholic. I think he's found a way to work every fox or espn game either on the radio or actually broadcasting the game
  19. I wonder why you don't like it. How would you react to a hit piece on your city? If my city was Columbus? I guess my reaction would be one of understanding.
  20. Apparently his contract had a stipulation that he had to be added to the Pirates 25 man roster by a certain date or get dealt/released
  21. My favorite part was Len talking about how Maddon praised Herrera for his bunting and then seconds later he lays down a terrible bunt that gets the lead runner.
