    Bucks in 3

    President of the Reds to fans mad about their sell off: Tough horsefeathers you have no choice but to root for us. At least PTR only says those things behind closed doors.

    Another friendly. Wouldn’t be a World Cup year without playing Ghana
  4. UMFan83
    So officially playing the Bucks. That sucks, I least wanted to play them. Another moment for Milwaukee/Wisconsin sports fans to own Chicago sports fans. That said we at least had 2 close games against them so maybe at least one of the losses isn’t by double digits

    Wtf is wrong with people
  6. UMFan83
    Got paid and is now packing it in :D
  7. UMFan83
    I get that it’s probably instinctual to slide on a close play but it’s basically proven that sliding is slower. Why do people still do it?
  8. UMFan83
    Hader is lurking. Given he hasn’t pitched the first 2 games he’s probably got the last 2 right?
  9. UMFan83
    He shouldn't have been around to begin with. He hasn't been anything but terrible since 2018. He was pretty good last year on the surface. 30 appearances, 2.14 ERA, 2.01 FIP unless the underlying numbers suggest he was much worse

    Wonder if Ross pulled Stroman for pitch count (79 when the target was 85-90) or facing the top of the order for the 3rd time.
  11. UMFan83
    Jeez lol
  12. UMFan83
    Not feeling the 2018 vibes from Jesse Chavez
  13. UMFan83
    It's not really irrational. He swings too much. So great to have a hitter that you don’t have to worry about striking out almost ever *hits into a double play* Well horsefeathers
  14. UMFan83
    I’m happy with the start but trying to put it into perspective. You don’t have to go back too far to find a team that started out great against a contender and didn’t keep it up very long. *cough2021Orioles*. This team will be considerably better than that example but their ultimate ceiling is still TBD What excites me the most is the working the counts and putting pressure on the pitchers. I still think this team is going to struggle to hit for power but if they can keep grinding out ABs they can score some runs.

    How horsefeathering drunk is Belushi
  16. UMFan83
    Umm hell yeah
  17. UMFan83
    You have to go all the way back to….September 1, 2021 against the Twins. Steele pitched 5 shutout innings and Alzolay pitched the remaining 4 to complete the shutout. Sorry to kill the fun lol
  18. UMFan83
    They should retaliate by hitting the Brewers' best hitter. Based on the first two games here, it looks like that is still Ryan Braun. Post of the year, thus far. lol that was a roller coaster
  19. UMFan83
    At some point we’re gonna have to charge the mound against the Brewers. 4 HBP already in this series continuing a trend from last year
  20. UMFan83
    3-0 without a hit lol
  21. UMFan83
    Run scored without putting the ball in play, love it. Now put the ball in play and really make it hurt
  22. UMFan83
    I really don’t think the Bulls are just coasting because they’re locked into a playoff seed. They’ve been getting their brains beat in since February. 6-16 I think since the break. Part of that is the schedule but a legit good team would be beating good teams occasionally. KC tweeted that the Bulls Net Rating since February 25th is -8.2 which is 28th in the NBA. Believe that number is opponent adjusted too (I think?) meaning the Bulls have been the 3rd worst team in the NBA over the last 6+ weeks.
  23. UMFan83
    lmao this is a legit disaster. Normally I’d say the team is coasting to the playoffs whatever but given their recent play you’d think if this team has any heart they would come out and get a confidence building win
  24. UMFan83
    its times like this - and only times like this - where i wish Hawk wasn't retired
  25. UMFan83
    Is this a scheduled tweet that goes out every 6 weeks? Not to make light of the injury which really sucks but I'm having deja vu
