  1. i don't know if lastella is to be blamed for that but i'm gonna go ahead and blame him
  2. except for the one he hit for a double earlier this game. wasn't that more of a grounder? (and barely fair)?
  3. http://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/CHN/CHN200404170.shtml Close, he was at 3B. Eric Cooper behind the plate. well [expletive], what am i thinking of that happened forever ago that made us all hate CB
  4. what in the world why was fowler bunting!?!
  5. i'm fairly certain that was in fact CBB http://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/CHN/CHN200404170.shtml Close, he was at 3B. Eric Cooper behind the plate. too lazy to check...was the alou/sosa back to back game in that same series? and was there some drama with CB in that game?
  6. well as I understand it... LaStella made a great diving stop at 2nd, diving toward the line, and got up and possibly threw the ball to himself at 2nd? lmaooooooooooooooooo
  7. Great move? He blatantly cheated. If the correct call was made, Yadi just screwed his team out of a 1st and 3rd opportunity. i'm not sure i've ever seen that call made
  8. what in the hell just happened? horsefeathering coomer. i couldn't possibly be more confused.
  9. why does lastella have to play 3b when he's in why can't they put him at 2b
  10. oh my god. coomer calling that double play was almost fun bad.
  11. i can't horsefeathering believe this is a two run game now...and it's only the god damn 4th
  12. so arrieta is horsefeathering everything up. this is cool and good and fun.
  13. SO horsefeathering TIRED OF GIVING UP RUNS ON 0-2
  14. i am so horsefeathering tired of giving up runs on 0-2 counts
  15. Kris Bryant is a pretty good example. Fowler last year made some significant changes IIRC. Hell, the whole team has drastically reduced it's strikeout rate from one of the highest to one of the lowest...that's not just Heyward and Zobrist. Right, but again, Rizzo seemed to have to COMPLETELY change his approach. I think THAT'S what a lot of us have come to expect or hope for, at least in terms of how "easy" it should be, as opposed to guys tweaking just part of how they approach an AB. Honestly, I'm not really sure if Rizzo's changes are any more drastic than any of those guys and just more publicized specifically. We just know more about the stuff Rizzo did as it's been talked about a lot and the changes are more obvious to the untrained eye.
  16. what the horsefeathers jake this isn't funny
  17. I get what you're saying, but we've had a lot of these stories. They tend to come with good coaching/player development, something we never really had so we were blind to how much of a difference it could make. I'm definitely guilty of it. As much as Rizzo did, though? I get what you're saying, but those were some pretty drastic changes. Kris Bryant is a pretty good example. Fowler last year made some significant changes IIRC. Hell, the whole team has drastically reduced it's strikeout rate from one of the highest to one of the lowest...that's not just Heyward and Zobrist.

  19. Though now I'm retroactively pissed over the especially unjustified game 1 loss. Yes, I'm afraid I'm contracting David Disease in that now i'm kinda bummed this wont be a 3 game rout sweep that gives us a 10 game lead over the Cardinals Such is life. I'm trying very hard not to think about it.
  20. i saw a tweet that heyward had an xbh before i heard it on the stream, and was amazed next thing i hear "A GROUND BALL" from pat...of course it had to be.
