  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Crap, swap stanton for trout. Guess I'm a little late oh well
  4. 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
  5. 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.
  6. 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
  7. 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.
  8. Terrible. How the heck are we going to get this offense going again? It's unwatchable at the moment, yesterday's 6 run outburst notwithstanding
  9. Yeah all the great hitters such as Jonathan Herrera and Mike Baxter that are getting big playing time You must have misread and thought I said every hitter is good
  10. Seriously fire the hitting coach. Probably an overreaction but there are too many good hitters on this team to be anemic for this long of a period
  11. Chicago vs Miami on the anniversary of the day Back to the Future was released in the year that they travel to in the future and meet in the World Series...can't be a coincidence right? http://www.verbicidemagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/back-to-the-future-cubs.jpg
  12. Not sure if you are talking about the contract or how everything played out. For the latter they basically rented him to the Hawks for 3 months for a 1st and two 2nds (right?) and he returned with championship experience. And he might play the last year of that deal in Las Vegas!
  13. That's awesome and I laugh at the people who stood in line for hours becuase they thought they were eating Hot Doug's for the last time. Now any drunken slob at Wrigley will be able to get their hands on them.
  14. [tweet] [/tweet] Cubs went 14-10 during that stretch (1 rainout)
  15. This was a total Jerry Seinfeld couple of weeks "We win two against the Dodgers, then we lose two. We get swept in St. Louis, then we sweep the Mets We keep ending up even!"
  16. 1 run allowed in 29 innings this series...crazy....11 runs allowed to the mets in 7 games this year
  17. I think Ryan O'Malley and Adam Greenberg both had career defining games
  18. I'm not sure it would necessarily be a bad thing. Just seems like we're not going to catch them. we're freaking 2.5 games behind them and they aren't some unbeatable juggernaut.
  19. If that game were next week, we have to start Arrieta against Cole....not Lester. Right? Yes...and will be twice as awkward when Hammel starts game 1 against St Louis
  20. Mets came into this series 29-11 at home this season
  21. http://www.reactiongifs.com/r/mgc.gif
