    Nice bad beat in the Niners-Cards game today (or good win depending on the side).
  2. soccer10k
    Tua done for the season.

    From that post on... .330 .425 .617 1.042 with 14 HR at home .317 .417 .653 1.070 with 16 HR on the road Maybe he learned people were on to him? Or maybe he chickened out and got scared? Or maybe he just had a good 10-12 games at home?

    Yeah, he won’t be playing for a few weeks.

    why are you suggesting/assuming that they were doing this on every pitch @Minute Maid Park the entire season Astros team-wide postseason splits, 2017 home: 862 OPS away: 632 OPS the videos above showed games in the regular season. Doesn’t mean they do it every game or for an entire game when they do it. Maybe they only do it in close and late situations.

    Ok Mike, now tell us how their pitchers are cheating also.

    He only pitched once in Houston in that series. Game 7 was in LA. Obviously could have mattered in Game 3.

    So Bama should be out, right, barring some weird stuff happening? For sure teams ahead of them at the end of the year: 13-0 Clemson 13-0 LSU or 12-1 Georgia 13-0 OSU or 12-1 Penn St. Then you've got a 12-1 Oregon or 12-1 Utah in the Pac-12 and a potentially 12-1 Oklahoma in the Big 12 (theoretically Baylor could go undefeated but I doubt that happens). I'd say if 11-1 Georgia beats 12-0 LSU in the SEC title game, there's no way Bama gets in. The only reason they got in a couple years ago was because OSU got hammered in their loss. Oregon, Oklahoma and Utah all have close losses. So Bama probably needs to hammer Auburn, have Oregon win the Pac-12 close, LSU win the SEC and hope Baylor beats OU the first time but loses the title game. Then you'd have Bama beating Auburn who beat Oregon and a probably underwhelming Baylor.

    I thought LSU missed their chance to put this game away early but they’re going to be up 20 at the half and they get the ball to start the second half.
  11. soccer10k
    Thought for sure Minnesota was going to blow this game.

    Sounds like the Rickettses are meddling in the hiring process.

    Beltran’s hiring made me look at the 2006 playoffs and holy hell was the NL bad that year. The Mets had the best record at 97-65. Second best record in the league was the Padres at 88-74. Only two teams in the NL won fewer than 71 games that year - the Pirates at 67 and Cubs at 66. Only 6 teams out of 16 were over .500 that year and two of those won 83 and 82 games. In interleague that year, the AL went 154-98 for a .611 winning percentage, easily the best of any year (2nd was .591 in 2008 and 3rd was .563 in 2012). Only two NL teams had winning records in interleague and one of those went 8-7. Only 4 of the 14 AL teams had losing records and the worst of those (7-11) would have been middle of the pack in the NL.

    Not only do the Warriors suck but Curry broke his hand. Might as well put them in the lottery now. Also, the Warriors were pretty smart to protect that pick their sending to Brooklyn from 1-20. Would have gone to Brooklyn if it was 21-30 but there's no way that conveys now which means it turns into a 2025 2nd rounder.

    The guy who gave up 4 runs in 6 innings in Game 4 isn't getting any MVP votes, nor should he. Strasburg was better. I realize that - hence the first 8 words of the post - also thought it was pretty obvious that I was focusing on this particular outing. You said you know he’s not going to win it which means you were referring to the series MVP award. So why would I think you were talking about just the game? He was great in the game though.

    Suck it Astros.

    why not? Yeah. Corbin looked good the first two innings and it was 7-8-9. He gets into any trouble and you yank him.
  21. soccer10k
    Martinez pretty much got what he wanted out of the pitching so far. 7 innings from Scherzer and Corbin and only 2 runs and now he's got Hudson and Doolittle for the last two.

    It’s pretty nuts that the Nats have won 3 games started by Verlander and Cole and haven’t won the series yet. I mean, I know its just baseball being baseball, but if you told me before the series that the Nats won 3 games started by those two guys, I would have bet a bunch of money on the Nats winning in 5 and 6 games.

    I hate the inside the baseline rule. Just make the line between the grass and the dirt line up with the base and the runner has to be on the dirt. But the base being inside the line but the runner having to stay outside is dumb.

    So LSU has the ball with 2:31 left and Auburn has no timeouts. LSU runs the ball and gets a first down but holding is called on the offensive line so it gets pulled back to 1st and 20. This was at the line of scrimmage and not way downfield. However, the clock starts after the play which allows LSU to kill off the clock even though they didn’t get a first down. Why does the clock run there? Is it because they got a first down on the play even though it got called back? Even that doesn’t make sense.
