  1. derrick rose threw out the first pitch today?
  2. nice first inning for jon outside of that weird walk to freese
  3. i do agree that he picked the right boring arrieta thread for that boring contract stuff about stuff that is almost 2 years away
  4. you're alive?! Yeah, just superstitious. Wasn't posting much when the season got started so was waiting for a cold streak to start back. Now that its apparent one of those isn't ever happening, [expletive] it, I'll just post again. well that's not the explanation i was expecting :lol:
  5. Damn. His dad's cancer is back.
  6. There's obviously a big defensive upgrade in going that way (mainly because of how bad an outfielder Soler is), but going by anything but their surface stats, Soler has looked a lot better offensively than Baez. Unfortunately, a 150 point gap in BABIP can disguise a lot of things. Is that true though? I get that Soler's babip sucks currently. But I'm not thinking Javy's is all that unsustainable either. His contact rate is higher than Soler's amazingly enough and his LD% is higher too. I'm really not sure Soler is even a better offensive player, obviously not even taking defense into account. you're alive?!
  7. Maddon does that a lot. He's doing it because he likes to say stuff quirky ways, not because he doesn't know they're referred to as "runs."
  8. I'll excuse the use of "points" as hopefully dad simplifying it because the kid doesn't know to say "runs" yet
  9. This bozo is on the score right now doubling down on these comments lol wut? with who?
  10. There's obviously a big defensive upgrade in going that way (mainly because of how bad an outfielder Soler is), but going by anything but their surface stats, Soler has looked a lot better offensively than Baez. Unfortunately, a 150 point gap in BABIP can disguise a lot of things.
  11. Cubs won, Pirates lost, Mets lost, Cardinals lost
  12. Pending the outcome of this game and the Cardinals game, we could have a 10(!!!!!) game lead in the division in mid May.
  13. the cardinals twitter account used the picture the dodgers twitter account tweeted earlier. then they were called on it, and apparently they deleted it.
  14. Cardinals social media is so hokey and mickey mouse, which is pretty hilarious given what it would take to be substandard at social media of all things
  15. June 5th vs the DBacks is also TBD still so
  16. If that were really the case, I'm not sure they'd bother with Schwarber at C, much less assign him 20% of the starts there this year. More accurate would be to say that glove-first catchers are much easier to come by and they see (underappreciated/underpriced) value in them.
  17. David Ross didn't play with Lester until 2013.
  18. i quite enjoy the mets losing big
  19. oh my god people are going in hard on that guy hahahahaha
  20. :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew: :flythew:
  21. Vin Scully is bad but he's still far from the worst. The Sox already have a ready-made worst booth to choose. i think you're in teh same camp as me on this...i don't hate vin scully at all. i just think he's a senile boring old man as an announcer, and, for whatever reason, the whole baseball world pretends he isn't.
  22. YEAHHHHH KB YEAHHHH nooooooooo KB nooooooooooo
  23. Hmm C: Cervelli 1B: Hosmer 2B: Phillips SS: Danny Espinoza 3B: Matt Duffy OF: Braun OF: Carlos Gomez OF Sean Rodriguez SP: Bumgarner damn i love carlos gomez... i can agree with most of this tho...totally forgot how much i hate phillips.
  24. so during that mccutchen ab earlier i started having flashbacks to that alex cora ab years ago turns out it was almost exactly 12 years ago. 5/12/04...and it's on youtube
