  1. Watching Dusty do line up construction for other teams pleases me. Batting Ben Revere and Michael Taylor 1st and 2nd ahead of Harper makes me giddy inside. Meanwhile Trea Turner went 3-3 with a walk in his first game Friday and is rewarded with being benched on both Saturday and Sunday only to be sent back down to the minors tomorrow.
  2. First thing he should do is buy Dusty some fishing tackle, get on his good side. Otherwise, he'll probably ride the bench while Dusty continues to trot out Danny Espinosa & his stellar 68 wRC+ I thought about that but Dusty loves him some speed.
  3. It looks like Trea Turner is getting called up.
  4. HOLY horsefeathers COOMER. I don't think I can do the 5th inning anymore.
  5. It makes me smile that at one point it crossed his mind that he shouldn't fill in that last digit because he didn't want to commit to anything.
  6. Guy in the blue hat 2 rows back. The truth is out there.
  7. Now we just need Kershaw to start walking people and coughing up some runs.

  10. I like Coomer as a color commentator. When he is given PBP in the 5th and stumbles through describing anything on the field I want to die. "There's a hit...........................................................................................and it's caught."
  11. Rangers called up Gallo. In the 5 days he is up, he gets 1 pitch hit AB and is sent back down.
  12. Ron Santo used to do the same, (or there was some guest announcer that did for 1 inning while Pat went on break?) and they just continued the tradition "tradition" I'm pretty sure Hughes has the 5th inning off contractually, the problem is not having an actual PBP person do it like they have in the past, where someone like the updates guy is an aspiring PBP guy(for the life of me I can't remember any of the names) and does it. I remember he use to take a full inning off, like just completely remove his headset and not say anything. Now he is still there but is just letting Coomer do PBP.
  13. Have the people that approved of Coomer doing the play by play for the 5th inning actually listened to it?
  14. Or that Wrigley is playing more like a hitters park this year than last year. (Which would make sense given that Wrigley bizarrely played as a pitchers park last year for the first time I can remember) http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/fun-with-early-season-park-factors/ Wrigley has been pitcher-friendly so far this year.
  15. Tonight's Dodgers @ Mets game is MLB's free game of the day.
  16. A super general series recap. Since there are no metrics breakdowns I expected a generous amount of hot takes but there were none. No metrics, no hot takes, why am I here? Only one man knows if the Cubs can keep it up.... [spoil][/spoil]
  17. salisbury steak again? Meatball sub. They knows I likes 'em extra sloppy, too.
