I'm watching and didn't have a problem with either of those last two strikes. The last one especially was meat. My problem was Jake was getting squeezed in the top half and then all of a sudden Roark gets a big zone. the called strike 3 jake got i thought was up and away for sure. was absolutely shocked when it was called a strike. -
I, uh, are you two actually watching the game? I'd be mad if any of my hitters *didn't* approach that at bat the way Soler did I'm watching and didn't have a problem with either of those last two strikes. The last one especially was meat.

I'd be mad if any of my hitters *didn't* approach that at bat the way Soler did yep only place i can fault him is maybe he could've tried to protect on strike 3 after seeing how it's being called, but i really would rather he just swing at actual strikes i think

kind of an odd time to say that

what a swingy pitch to have called incorrectly
-
It's 1000x better tha nthe Cardinals'
-
I wouldn't call it a long shot (as much as you could call a free agent signing not a long shot). If the hitting thing is serious, it's probably like us, the Dodgers, maybe Giants or Mets, and a random mystery team or two (like maybe the Cardinals decide to finally spend their TV money). Out of those teams, the main one I'd be worried about losing to individually is LA.

I have an account over there too but I try to respond to Cubs posts as little as possible. I did mildly troll during the playoffs last year.
-
i'd much rather they both make it and the mets not, but that won't happen because the cardinals blow
-
102? lol wtf?
-
I'm good with taking credit for starting this and then you taking it from there.
-
Holy hell, no, it is not. Not at all. yeah. i mean, it's basically only russell who i'd even be a little sad about losing there.
-
i'm really pretty damn annoyed. two should be blowouts turned into human looking wins. This is what it has come to. "We dominated for most of the game, but not quite all of it. Now I feel like [expletive]." against the second best team in baseball lol

you might notice i didn't exactly go out on a limb or think anything all that outrageous needed to happen http://www.northsidebaseball.com/archive/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=63617 and i was hardly the only one who thought that team had 90s win upside and a shot at the division (little did we know the cardinals would win 100+ games with that stupid roster). check out SSR and kyle. Oh, I certainly thought it was possible myself. I'm sure there are a couple old posts from me where I said, "hey, if this goes right, and that goes, right, blah blah..." But I don't think any of us thought it was LIKELY for us to win 97, or even 90 games last year. IIRC, most of us seemed to predict a little bit over .500, and maybe a shot at the wild card if we got lucky. I mean, our front office came out and said a long time ago that they had a 5 year plan. Wasn't last year year number 4? I thought it was pretty much accepted that we were about a year ahead of schedule with this project. all i said had to go right was that arrieta's 2014 wasn't a mirage. all kyle and ssr said needed to happen was good health.

my favorite post of yours ever

uhh that is neither true nor does it have anything to do with anything Excuse me? I don't think any of us were projecting the Cubs for more than like mid-80's in wins last season. you might notice i didn't exactly go out on a limb or think anything all that outrageous needed to happen http://www.northsidebaseball.com/archive/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=63617 and i was hardly the only one who thought that team had 90s win upside and a shot at the division (little did we know the cardinals would win 100+ games with that stupid roster). check out SSR and kyle.

he said that the cubs would decline because teams that take big jumps (2014-15) usually fall back. nevermind the fact that the 2015 team had a drastically different roster than 2014, rendering anything about 2014 irrelevant, and nevermind the offseason the cubs had. i just thought it was a really, really poor choice of an example of a plexiglas team. if he wanted a good plexiglas team, the astros might've been a better choice. And never mind the fact that they weren't supposed to be good until 2016 anyway. The whole 2015 season was just a bonus. uhh that is neither true nor does it have anything to do with anything

from the mlb network highlights i saw of the pirate series, it seemed like their guys were much the same.

What does the "plexiglass" refer to again? he said that the cubs would decline because teams that take big jumps (2014-15) usually fall back. nevermind the fact that the 2015 team had a drastically different roster than 2014, rendering anything about 2014 irrelevant, and nevermind the offseason the cubs had. i just thought it was a really, really poor choice of an example of a plexiglas team. if he wanted a good plexiglas team, the astros might've been a better choice.
