  1. Uh...we might be good
  2. Nice first play
  3. He had a good run stuff on the first drive
  4. Uh...this is different.
  5. Man, this offense looks pretty good so far.
  6. That was...different
  7. Nah, I'm sure they've convinced themselves that building through young pitching is totally going to work for them Sox fans I know think they are set better than the young Cubs were because they have a balance between pitching & hitting prospects. Then again, they still think Moncada will be a superstar, too.
  8. Since this happened after he got promoted, he loses a full year of service time with this. If it had happened a few starts earlier, they would have saved a whole bunch of cash later on.
  9. Can't they just build a roof before tomorrow's game?
  10. what about Sunday Yeah...I screwed that one up. Somehow forgot it was a four game series.
  11. If the Cubs win and the Brewers/Cards lose tomorrow, I hope the regulars all head to Chicago a day early and they play all minor leaguers against Scherzer.
  12. Originally that plan was to draft hitters with the high pick but still get pitchers by drafting them in bulk with supplemental picks and later rounds. That approach netted pretty much nothing. Does trading Eddie Butler and Rollie Lacy for Hamels count as pretty much nothing? How about getting Chavez for Tyler Thomas? Those are just the recent ones. Just because we haven't had young studs developed through the system doesn't mean that we've gotten "pretty much nothing". We also have about ten guys in the upper half of the system who may turn out to be decent back end rotation guys, some of whom may be a cutter or a changed change grip away from being mid-rotation guys for a playoff team. I don't see any dominant aces there at this point, but there's a whole bunch of potential cheap production. Not to mention that some of them could move to the pen, pick up 2-3 ticks and become pretty good relievers.
  13. How does anyone survive any playoff game? speaking for myself...alcohol.
  14. That's an easy save if the umpire just calls strikes on Shaw.
  15. Jesus, just automate strikes already.
  16. he was PH for, up 2nd in the top half oops. Never mind.
  17. Given the pinch hitters coming into the game, I'd be tempted to leave Wilson in there to start the ninth.
  18. Now playing the role of Kevin Siegrist...
  19. Yes, first ever to do it. Continuous innovator.
