The Reds is particularly bad because if they’d just won series against crappy teams they’d be right there. Not even sweeping, just 2 of 3. Lost 2 of 3 to Marlins, Cubs, Tigers and Pirates. Plus they lost 2 of 3 twice to St Louis.
-
Fairly straightforward
-
2.76 ERA his last 8 starts with St Louis. Of course, he’s also got a 5.44 FIP in that span.
-
Certainly didn’t look like it was going to be close when Bama was up 21-3 with the ball and had scored on all three possessions.
-
White Sox plunked Ohtani last night in retaliation for HBP’s earlier in the series. TLR gonna TLR.
-
And lost those 3 games by 4, 7 and 9 runs Minor technicality but the White Sox game was only 6-0. Saw that the Cubs are the first team ever to have two games in a season where they had a 7+ run lead but lost by 8+ runs.
-
Reds are butchering this. Lost 2 of 3 to Miami, Detroit and Chicago in the past couple weeks, lost at least 2 of 3 to Pittsburgh this week and lost 2 of 3 to the Cards twice. They still have 7 more against Pitt, 4 against Wash and 2 against CWS when they might be resting guys the last week.

It's not exactly the group of death is it? Maybe they'll somehow finish second and draw Bayern in the round of 16 . . . It’s not but Atalanta is solid and Villarreal won the Europa last year. I don’t think they’ll finish third but losing this eliminates some margin for error. It was a harder group but that’s what happened last year. They won in Paris and hammered Leipzig but then lost on the road to a random Turkish team. Had they won that game they would have topped the group. They didn’t and finished third. But finishing second as you said would be bad also because of who you’re likely to draw in the next round.
-
ManU will probably still advance but that's a result they could look back on in three months with regret if they get sent to the Europa League by a point or two.

Clay Helton fired by USC.

I saw the same video that continued on for a bit and whoever did the graphics obviously had no faith the play was going to work because the graphics incorrectly showed Florida State was 1-1 and Jacksonville 0-2 after the TD.

Me to, think he ran out of gas, so many unforced errors = tired, to his credit, Medvedev did execute also, looked good and had far more in the tank. I know Novak's in great shape but I wonder if the matches caught up with him. Medvedev only dropped one set in the tournament and his longest match was 2:23. Novak had 4 longer than that, three of which were over 3 hours and the 4th was 2:59. Four successive matches too (3rd round through the semis). He's not old at 34 but he's also not 27 anymore. Then couple that with the pressure of going for the calendar Slam. It's a lot.
-
That was some impressive stuff from Medvedev. Outside of serving at 5-2 and then the double fault at 5-4, 40-15, he didn’t falter. Just steady throughout and a fully deserved win. Glad to see one of the young guys finally break through and get one. I don’t count Thiem at the Open last year since only Djokovic played and he defaulted.
-
Now down two breaks in the third set also.
-
Toronto scored 11 in the 7th inning of the second game yesterday, then scored 16 runs in the first 3 innings today. So that’s 27 runs in 4 innings. In all, they put up 11 in both ends of the DH yesterday and 22 today, so 44 runs in 23 innings.
-
Well OSU has always gotten the benefit of the doubt with the committee so this checks out. Neither is getting in over an undefeated SEC or Big 12 team. The most likely unbeaten Pac-12 team just went to OSU and won so neither of those two would get in over Oregon. So you’re worried about them getting in over a random Group of 5 team?
-
So what you’re saying is Texas isn’t back?
-
Yep. Just going to be happening more and more often now.
-
boy, gotta think 7 is the minimum there - win both home games and get a point on the road. Can't be dropping points at home to the two bottom teams and need to at least hold Panama. How good is Costa Rica? All I know is they’re typically right up there with us and Mexico. Hope they win the first two and then whatever happens in Costa Rica is gravy. You could definitely convince me 7 should be the minimum though if Costa Rica is nothing special.
-
Boy that was a much needed second half turnaround. I probably would have expected 6 or 7 points from the first three going in (win at home, win one road game, draw/lose the other), but 5 isn't the end of the world, especially after tying the first two. Next three in October are home Jamaica, road Panama, home Costa Rica. Get 6 points please.

lol, I pay for like 20 different streaming/subscription services. The only thing I found worth watching on Paramount+ during the trial was the Dream Team documentary. I'm not going to pay just to watch the 2-3 WCQs that are exclusively on the streaming network. champions league! That’s what I do. Sign up for 3 months, cancel until the spring, sign up for 3 more months and cancel again.

How the hell does Salvador Perez have 41 home runs? Previous career high was 27 (twice).
-
What a lousy result. I’m not going to overreact and say Wednesday is a must win but we really need a win in these first three games.
-
In the previous 6 Hex's, it took an average of 15.2 points to finish 3rd and 13.2 for 4th. Extrapolate to 14 games and you've got 21.2 and 18.4. I'm guessing it will be a bit more since we're bringing in two worse teams, so we've probably got to get to 22 or 23 for 3rd. Could obviously be less though.
