  1. I actually like it when a hitter squares up on the first pitch (as if he is going to bunt). Anything to shift the defense a little bit might be enough to punch the ball through the infield or over a defenders head. Yeah. I actually thought, "Soto, you crafty mofo making them think you're going to bunt so they move in at the corners." Oops I thought he'd just do it on the first pitch. Then he kept doing it. I was beside myself with disbelief. I still can't believe it, really. Cards are like, "OK, just pin Pie to 1st with some throw-overs, and let them hand us the double play."
  2. Has Lou said what his long term plans are for improving his in-game managing?
  3. Some album with "Full Collapse" on the cover which has empty seats or something on the cover and probably has "Go Cubs Go" as a bonus track.
  4. I want my team to start playing better baseball before the playoffs begin. Right now I don't think it matters who we play. If we play like we are right now, we will lose against any of the possible opponents.
  5. No curses here. Just bad baseball. Here's a bold prediction: if we play like this after having limped into the playoffs? 3 and out. No duh, right? Many a good team has blown it, either down the stretch, or in that first playoff series. Braves fans are laughing right now -- in '03, they had won over 100 games and here we come with our 89 wins and Wood & Prior, and we take it away from them lickety-split. Happens. No curse. Just bad baseball. Want it to not happen? Start playing better. End of story. Done. Fin. End.
  6. I just heard this on the radio. I mean -- I don't necessarily have a problem with it, because Lou's not calling out any single player. All the while I'm thinking -- what about that stupid bunt Lou? WHAT ABOUT HAVING ONE OF YOUR BEST POWER HITTERS BUNT!!?! I wonder if any of the players are thinking that too.
  7. I hate how hot the Astros are and we have to play them again.
  8. Yeah, just pencil in the Brewers at 3.5 back. Playoff magic number went down anyway.
  9. Bah why am I wasting my time watching this crap. There's no way the Reds are going to win this game who's kidding who. I'm out.
  10. Wow, I think that should have been called.
  11. And the Crew gets out of it. I don't think this is going to end well for us, gentlemen.
  12. And the Soto bunt. I can't believe he bunted Soto.

  14. Izzy with the chance to win it. Hilarious.
  15. And of course magically Lopez becomes the only hitter in MLB who can get a piece of Marmol's good slider :roll:
  16. Oh for crying out loud. They're gonna beat us against Marmol with the bottom of their damn order.

  18. Have the Phillies even lost yet? I believe they have, yes.
  19. For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Any more dumb and we'd be feeling earthquakes or something. Lightning strikes.
  20. Ankiel's little snarl when he's hitting is weird. He looks like an Anime baseball player or something.
  21. Marmol's like, "fine Lou, I'll get this done myself." GOOD PLAY!
