  1. That was fun. I'm not sure if the TV broadcast showed it, but right before the replay review on the last out, Almora called for the ball amidst the celebratory handshakes and appeared to sincerely try to tag out Grichuk. I couldn't see how much Almora was kidding, but at the least he was intentionally annoying him.
  2. I'm irrationally excited to see Mekkes in full season ball. Myrtle Beach is out too. [tweet] [/tweet]
  3. All of the following is true: - Heyward's new swing might not make a lick of difference in his production - Most anyone who says 'his swing doesn't look any different/any better' by watching him on TV is full of nonsense - You're gonna need a whole lot more than a single game against a very good SP to even approach making a conclusion on the new swing Heyward was a good hitter for too long and is still too young to just throw in the towel on him being a productive hitter. At the same time, he's had wrist injuries and one of his problems is catching up to velocity, which a better swing might not help with. We will not know much of anything on that front for many weeks. The word of the day is Wait.
  4. When the hell did you move to St. Louis from Seattle (or wherever exactly it was in the pacific NW)? A year ago, I made a bunch of posts about it. just kidding, it was a month ago
  5. I'll be in attendance, my first Cubs game since early 2015. Please score lots more runs than the other team Cubs.
  6. They bought out a year of Free Agency with an option for a 2nd.
  7. It looks like the raw PDF is much bigger than a single page, so you probably need to adjust the margins to be basically 0 to get as close to 'fullscreen' as possible. How do you do that? Depends on your OS/PDF Viewer/Printer I think. In windows you'll want to check Page Setup under the print options as a first check.
  8. Wong looked horrible against 2 RHP, so blooping a game winner against a lefty sounds about right
  9. how? no one got to first before the throw. He doesn't bobble the ball if he doesn't try to go to 2nd with it, he could've taken it himself.
  10. It is not remotely a dirty slide. By not stopping at the bag he might foolishly cost himself an out, but there's zero wrong with that. and when he kicked his leg out? Unless the rule changed that's not even illegal, never mind dirty. Sweeping your leg at ankle height is not a dirty or dangerous play.
  11. It is not remotely a dirty slide. By not stopping at the bag he might foolishly cost himself an out, but there's zero wrong with that.
  12. He also thinks they fixed their horrific production against LHP by....[checks notes] adding Logan Forsythe. Good talk Aaron.
  13. not a huge fan of the pitch selection there, did they challenge him up with the fastball once? And Contreras was set up a mile outside on ball 4.
  14. I don't have a problem with it, he'd set down like 8 in a row and the best LH hitter on the team was leading off. Molina led off the inning. it's spring training for fans too wait
  15. I don't have a problem with it, he'd set down like 8 in a row and the best LH hitter on the team was leading off.
  16. Nope Wow. Really? Just assumed after we started like 25-3 or something crazy. Well, then, let's win this one. Pirates started 2-0 when we started 1-1
  17. We haven't been below .500 since April 2015, longest stretch in baseball.
  18. Lester needs to stop the top of the order and then get a bloop & a blast out of the 3rd time facing Martinez. Bullpen game is in our favor too.
  19. Yep. Or even one that was something other than short and on the foul side of the base.
  20. That throw makes me wonder how Zobrist ever threw anyone out last year.
