    even chipper's marble brain knew it

    Slender frame, pitching mechanics and the cutting action makes McKenzie look like a CJ Edwards clone.

    time to hope for a split
  4. Thed Hoyerstein
    I'm hoping for at least a bracket which may not be as far fetched as you'd think because there's a sliver that the tournament could theoretically be played in a month. Maybe it's a pipe dream at this point

    The Big East canceled at halftime of St Johns/Creighton, which is weird that they even let it go that far anyway.

    highlight of the offseason right here [tweet] [/tweet]

    I take it you've never heard of Juwanna Mann

    Wowzers, Astros fired Hinch and Luhnow

    I would guess when this number is closer to zero than 9 digits. [tweet] [/tweet] Have there been any recent reports as to the go-forward interest expense used to finance the team? Though that should be outside of baseball ops but I'm sure that the Ricketts would use that excuse.

    feel like Trea Turner would make a lot of sense for the Cubs - excellent contact, speed, and creates a dynamic up the middle defense with him and Javy.

    I would definitely be gut punched if they won out and still missed the playoffs but assuming Mitch is a big reason why they win out, I'd be pretty happy with the outcome since it signals that Mitch may be a viable solution. Not to mention 10-6 is a good record and illustrates that Nagy isn't the dummy visor boy that some of us thought.

    I wonder how Addison is spending his final hours as a Cub. Even if they did tender him a contract, wouldn't Russell miss where to sign? I should get demoted for that post

    "It's about damn time", he said in reference to the arrival of his late pizza delivery.

    Isn't Floyd's only guaranteed for injury?

    Everything's a conspiracy that goes back to the They that run the world, especially pro sports which is basically a less violent but equally and increasingly elitist form of organized religion. Bet you don't think I'm a weirdo now that I've fully explained myself while staying on topic

    What that reason is, we'll sadly never know... I remember, prior to the fg attempt, second or third down, Mitch had Miller wide open down the middle and of course, missed. On the Score they were speculating on teammates beginning to get frustrated with his terrible play, can't blame them. How many times can you defend a guy who misses you when you're open time and time again? That was a throw that had to be caught for a TD because I don't believe the Bears had any timeouts left. Going off memory, but it may have been a situation where Miller wasn't deep enough in his route.

    Joe's first move after Tommy butches a routine grounder? [tweet]https://twitter.com/NatureisScary/status/1184651996646821888[/tweet]

    To be fair, Buehler was his first draft pick and followed that up with Will Smith in 2016. As for shrewd signings, I'd also add Chris Taylor and Kenta Maeda in addition to Morrow. And he somehow extracted Yasmani Grandal for Matt Kemp. The player development has is a clear separator, which you noted.

    I wonder if he's more concerned now that the season series is tied 5-5

    Beating Scherzer twice does mean something, lol. Sorry you can't do "small samples!!!" to things like that. That guy wrecked almost every one he faced. Since Jeff Albert (came over from Houston) became the primary hitting coach, the Cardinals have had the 4th best offense in baseball. Nationals, like the Braves, have a crap bullpen. You need that to win in the playoffs. Cardinals will just hack fouls and take take take until the 5th-6th when starters are lifted and feast on their pen. Just like we did Atlanta. I don't put a lot of stock into WAR for pitchers when the stat doesn't consider weak contact/ground balls. And that's the moneyball market efficiency that Cardinals were all-in on. Mikolas, Waino, and Hudson are all groundball specialists. The whole staff is. With Edman and Wong and DeJong in the infield... it'll be smooth sailing barring crazy BABIP luck. Cardinals are the best postseason team remaining with HR/FB rates too. We keep the ball in the park in a homer-crazy league. That's how you win. That's how we'll beat the Nationals. It's going to shock everyone but guess who has not been active since 7 hours before game of the NLCS http://giphygifs.s3.amazonaws.com/media/rJaowAhGcSjja/giphy.gif

    Cardinals went 5-2 against them this year, including 3 of 4 at home and have home field advantage. With Anibal Sanchez starting game 1. This won't be a cakewalk. Especially since it'll set up where Wainwright only pitches at home. Cardinals beat Scherzer twice this year. cardinals were 2-4 against the barves in the regular season

    Theo just came down from his WS bender. so it's Jed's fault
  24. Thed Hoyerstein
    Imagine what he would hit if the ball was juiced. :-" I'd bet on 45 homers in 659 PA's this year

    dying at 91 for Alcorn State trying to make the tackle once the returner fields the punt
