I think they are better than the Rockies and of the 4 coming out of that side, Dodgers, D’Backs, Brewers, Rockies I’d easily pick the Rockies as the teams to face in the NLCS of the 4 (I know them getting there is unlikely but at least would like them to get in to have a shot at it). Disagree. The Brewers have 3 pitchers. They have some real quality in the bullpen, but over a 7 game series depth will bite them. Of the possibles, the Brewers are the weakest team imo. But we have to sweep them this weekend anyway, thats just business, and thats gonna make things tough for them. -
Wouldnt be shocked if he was out til late June/July and its a pretty good bet that he struggles when he does return. That sucks for him, for that to happen while running the damn bases is a shame. I much prefer reading about things like Syndergaard holding a shotgun to his shoulder and pulling the trigger or Harvey pitching on short rest.

I was at this game! The Trop is surprisingly OK. Davis looked nasty today. Ive had a good season. Ive seen games in Miami, Tampa, Atlanta and Chicago this season and the only loss was game 3 of that miserable sweep from the Brewers last Sunday.

Why Was z Montgomery Taken out So Soon?
Bote McBoteface replied to Garapp's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Didn't you see how hard that home run was hit? They cut him instantly to teach the rest of the pitchers how much that horsefeathers will be tolerated. It just took a few batters for him to get the message. -
Despite Schwarber's Low BA do You Bring Him Back Next Year?
Bote McBoteface replied to Garapp's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Id say maybe cutting him mid game would send a message to the rest of the team. Should we wait and do it in a playoff game for extra zing? -
I find myself thinking that every cards batter is dexter fowler.

Bote McBoteface replied to Garapp's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Uhhhh theres close to a 0% chance he isnt the opening day left fielder next year and thats been pretty steady throughout his struggles. -
Who the F is Garcia?
-
Hm, so this guy throws 101 with great movement. That might be annoying in the future.
-
What a crock of horsefeathers.
-
So the Nats are 4.5 back of LA and have a 3 game set coming up. Is our path through the playoffs easier facing LA in the 5 game series and WAS in the NLCS or the other way around? I think its best for us to face LA in the 5 game series. That gives us 7 games to exploit the Disty factor and gives us a game or two of no Strasburg/Scherzer. Go Nats i guess?

I predict crappy lefty vs. Rizzo ends badly for the Mets.
-
Why is Lugo pitching with a partially torn UCL? Is that what Len said? How is that even a thing? I mean i know, Mets, but seriously?
-
Why would you have a slugger bat 9th? That doesn't make much sense. Yep. Flop 6 and 9 and give Almora 75% of the starts andI like it a lot.
-
Oh sweet, i get to see an opening day in person. :D
-
2004 is a much better comparison.

We were a baseball team in need of a left handed reliever and a backup catcher and we got both for Candelario who may or may not be an ok backup or below average starter and parades who is an odds on favorite to never make the major leagues. Sucks that Wilson has sucked but its a good bet that will turn around before the contract expires. Avila became our starter, filled in admirably, and had several big or game winning hits for us. It was a good trade and we got the exact return that we needed.
-
Meh, I'd like our chances of winning the division even if I knew with absolute certainty that the Brewers would sweep the remaining games between us. Things would certainly be easier if we could find a way to look like a professional baseball team tomorrow but this is Milwaukee's world series and they can have it for all I care.
-
Now theyre gonna think they lost the division by 8 games because Nelson missed a month. That sucks but oh well.

Cool story, but.... :shock: are you unfamiliar with sheetz or just doubtful of gas station food? i could get the mentality of the latter, but it's basically just like any fast food place on the inside except you order your food through a touch screen monitor. i mean the food is kinda "meh" but it's comparable to any other FF joint. lately i've really liked their flatbread turkey sausage sandwich (turkey sausage/grilled oninons/eggs/cheese) which i'm sure is probably frozen for the most part. but it's quick and cheap and efficient and they serve it all day. i also hold very low standards for food so take this take with a grain of salt. for reference, i have a 12 pack of busch light in my fridge. i've found if you lower your expectations (or are too broke to do anything else) then you're slightly happier. basically, it's all the same horsefeathers if you squint hard enough. Their breakfast sandwiches are really good. Better than youll find at any fast food place. That pretzel roll sandwich bun is great.

Javy with more DRS at short than Lindor this year. Javy with a better batting average. Lindor with more homers. http://68.media.tumblr.com/db649f4441940d7fcbbc2bd5d6646bc1/tumblr_mlj0syTLbP1rf1e3ro1_250.gif That doesnt even seem possible to me. Wow.

Maybe Justin Wilson thought wed be just as happy with 20 combined runs.
-
So much for my 6 back on September 3rd prediction. I wonder if the Dodgers and Nats decided that they'd rather face the Brewers in the playoffs. Actually I dont, but that feels better than giving them credit for surviving a really tough 2 week+ of schedule while we were cake walking. Whatever, we'll just have to put them down ourselves I guess.
-
Theyre arent gonna bring in a crappy lefty to face Rizzo are they? Cuz that almost never works and really takes up a lot of time.
