  1. Wow was not expecting to see that What is worse than splitting a series at home with the Padres?
  2. Sucks that we spent Monday and Tuesday adding 1.5 games to our lead and then Wednesday and Thursday losing 1.5 games (if the Brewers score holds)
  3. I cannot believe Quintana is worth 0.2 wins this year and we're in mid-August. Like it is well beyond my lowest expectations for him coming into this season.
  4. [expletive], THIS WILL NEVER STOP PISSING ME OFF. WHY DID THEY horsefeathering GO BACK. Like every other team is in a hurry to publically decline a visit to the White House but our team went out of their way to go to there a second time just so they could met that horsefeathers
  5. Averaged 3.6 runs per game against 2 of the worst pitching staffs in baseball
  6. can you believe we’re gonna miss out on Harper because we have to chase yet another FA starter because the 5 we have signed mostly suck
  7. Sweet now we got outscored in both our series against the bottom dwellers of both leagues
  8. Ive been pretty positive this year but this latest stretch is starting to hurt my optimism a bit
  9. Teams have a 1.012 OPS when facing Quintana the third time around the order. .693 and .669 the first 2 times
  10. I only dislike them when they are playing bad like they have in the 21 games since the ASB
  11. Somehow one of you guys will still find a stat that partially convinces me that Q is actually pitching well despite a 4.28 ERA in mid August
  12. Sooooo we might go 4-3 with a negative run differential in 7 games against the teams with the worst records in both the NL and the AL and happen to be a combined 70 games below .500.
  13. Finally getting payback for Jon Koronka
  14. Somehow for a team with 11 good hitters it’s seems like lineups are constructed to have a struggling player hit every 3 spots
  15. Persistent back problems tend to just kind of go away as you get older right?
  16. Monty has a decent shot of going 7 at this rate which is incredible
  17. Pretty nice to bring up a potential 3+ win player for the 5th season in a row (Javy, Bryant/Schwarber/Russell, Contreras, Happ, Bote)
  18. Wow bold choice....the 5 infielders/no catcher alignment hasn’t been attempted since the 1926 Boston Braves.
  19. Holy horsefeathers that is amazing
  20. Stan Mikita has died :(
  21. Having the DH is a perfect chance to give Willy a rest behind the plate but keep his bat in the lineup. Would have liked to have seen Happ sit, Contreras at DH, Schwarber in LF, Heyward in CF, Zobrist in RF. At least Bote is in there.
  22. It looks like Javy's SB and overall baserunning contributions make up for the giant gap in walk rate. Surprised that his defensive value is so low.
  23. I went to a game a few years ago (right before they got good) and it was a really enjoyable experience. Great place to watch a baseball game.
  24. Wouldn’t he pitch Sunday then? Yeah...they have a DH today but I think that wouldnt affect them until Monday
