  1. This England game is comical
  2. Yeah I hear ya. Offense didn’t show but doesn’t help that we only used Bass, Duensing and Farrell in the pen and all 4 runs came with them in the game
  3. Yeah stupid inconsistent offense an issue again. I’m not even sure how you “fix” that
  4. It’s just Carl that’s injured from our really deep and good pen right? It feels like all the sudden we are down 3 guys with the way Joe is using the pen lately
  5. biggest spot of the game and the AAAA dude who gave up 2 runs on Friday is coming in. Hope it works out
  6. There seems to be an influx of people in my life heavily rooting for Mexico because the US isn’t in the World Cup. Is this actually a thing or are the people I know strange?
  7. I just want to say when I originally voted on this I thought it said Lester leads pitchers in fWAR and not team so I am going to pretend like I am nailing this prediction right now I also voted for the Almora choice which is on track and while Contreras isnt leading the team in fWAR he’s 2nd
  8. Isn’t there supposed to be like a pitch clock?
  9. So much for that 2 ER or less in 10 consecutive starts streak
  10. This has been just a fantastic game. Man Ronaldo is so good. https://twitter.com/landondonovan/status/1007711145917140992
  11. I love that I work in a laid back office and have a mounted TV we can put the games on. Been able to watch so much more than I would normally.
  12. Random thought...I remember in the winter there was some talk from the Red Sox that Chili Davis had something to do with the team’s poor power numbers but dismissed it as stupid. But now more than 1/3 into the season I see this Boston HR 2017: 27 out of 30 HR 2018: 2 out of 30 SLG 2017: .407 SLG 2018: .457 Cubs HR 2017: 9 out of 30 HR 2018: 23 out of 30 SLG 2017: .437 SLG 2018: .415 Obviously Boston added JD Martinez but outside of that many of the same hitters. I’m sure it’s just statistical noise and it happens to come during a particularly rough stretch of power hitting but I thought it was interesting.
  13. Then you don't really understand how baseball works, and you're going to generally not enjoy watching it. I’m convinced it’s worse this year. Again, I can't remember who it was but I remember reading something a few weeks ago that it is worse, in fact it was approaching a historically high variance between their hot and cold streaks. I tend not to get too worried about how things look in June, and I'm really not all that worried that much overall, but that particular thing does concern me a bit.
  14. Brewers fans greeting Cubs fans entering Miller Park
  15. This Mad Men Rally Gif thing is going to be awesome when they come back to win in the 9th Edit: And if it doesn't work, at least we got to look at Mad Men gifs right?
