  1. LOL back to back solo shots for the Giants 2-1 SF
  2. Yes, because one slump by a player one year means the same thing will happen the next year and that there's nothing to worry about when it does. Just ask Bob Howry. He's a lights out second half reliever.
  3. Maybe we should trade for that guy. Wrong roberts
  4. Roberts nailed as home as he attempted to score the tying run.... I love having MLB.tv
  5. I must have missed the memo that said 13-5 is considered a "struggle". Yea, he hasn't been bad recently or anything. Stop trolling.
  6. The Livan Hernandez from the 07 NLDS has decided to show up in SF... He's outdueling Lincecum right now :shock:
  7. Can't help it. If we all accepted that we were locks for the playoffs, then what the hell would we do for the next 29 games? The Cubs fans are used to clinching the last couple days of the season, having such great odds in late August is something we refuse to grasp. For me it's more about wanting to clinch the division as soon as possible. Clinching in that last home series would be pretty awesome.
  8. 4, actually, in a row.... Just because he got away with pitching poorly the time before last doesn't mean he pitched well. Vs Cincy two starts ago he pitched 7 innings and gave up 1 earned run. I don't care if he got away with pitching poorly, but he has not had 4 bad starts in a row. You don't go 7 and give up 1 and call that a bad start. If he is out of shape, it will show up now - in the dog days of summer. Let's hope he has something left in the tank. When he only threw like 55% strikes, I'll call it a bad start, regardless of the result...especially for the purpose of determining whether or not his bad starts are the result of some sort of trend. If you want to stick your head in the sand about it because he managed to avoid actually giving up runs, feel free to do so.
  9. The Post-Dispatch quoted a couple anonymous Cards who said "we aren't big fans of that." Exactly...
  10. Cards should untuck their jerseys after fatty makes the final out :mrgreen:
  11. it doesn't like you
  12. http://baseballprospectus.com/statistics/sortable/index.php?cid=205449
  13. Is it really hurting? It's probably the right thing to do. For whatever reason, the lineup tools, IIRC, tend to put the pitcher spot 8th in the ideal lineups. But I might be remembering wrong.
  14. 4, actually, in a row.... Just because he got away with pitching poorly the time before last doesn't mean he pitched well.
  15. That was before 07.
  16. Well, he's obviously not in shape.
  17. you weren't supposed to, damnit
  18. BTW, I love the fact that the Brewers have been white hot in August and still find themselves a half-game worse (even or a full game after tonight) than they were on 8/1. EDITED - n/m on that other part
  19. i don't get the joke
  20. MLB.com has been counting it for a long time. It's the E# column. http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/standings/index.jsp
  21. Seriously? Wow, teams have been really bad this year on the road. 2/3 that are better than us are in our own division. The other is the Angels.
  22. The Cubs are now tied for the 4th best road record in baseball. So much for the "can't win on the road" knock.
