  1. DeGrom has a FIP of -0.30, an xFIP of 0.79 and has been worth 1 WAR already.
  2. Who gives a horsefeathers. I'm normally optimistic but I've got nothing right now.
  3. Weren’t we up like 5 games on the Brewers after taking 3 of 4 in Milwaukee the second weekend of the year last year? I don’t really care about standings at this point, just pointing out the obnoxious ways the Brewers are winning games. We were up 5 games on September 2 which, last time I checked, is much later in the season than April 3.
  4. Why does it feel cheap? Going 20-20-20 is insane.
  5. The slide was fine and both Ross and Kirkchian (sp?) were correct Oh, I agree with them. Ross is still a prick. Mariners Revenge apparently has resurfaced.
  6. i understand following the brewers and cardinals, but why do we need to keep track of their good players' numbers? like why would i want to know every time yelich hits a home run I'm not sure if you're aware, but this thread is called "2019 Other Games Thread". That means people post stuff that happens in other games. Yelich homered in a game that didn't involve the Cubs which, by definition, is an "Other Game". UMFan thought it was noteworthy so he posted it here. Sometimes people will post stuff about things you don't care about. But that's going to happen in a thread for posts about the 2268 games that don't involve the Cubs in a given season.
  7. Well, he just became the first guy to win regional MOP without actually winning the regional since Curry, so you probably have a point. I think they said during the broadcast that he had the most points through 4 games in tourney history. And that was before he scored a little more.
  8. horsefeathering Duke escapes again. In the last 10 seconds, Va Tech airballed an open 3, took a bad, long 3 that wasn't close and then missed a 2-footer on a great out of bounds play.
  9. Good to see Michigan forgot how to shoot today.
  10. And now a pitching change with two outs? Strop on a 10 pitch limit? Just have him throw a bullpen.
  11. If we’re not going to use Chatwood up 10, when are we going to use him?
  12. Bring in Chatwood for the 8th. I know we’re off tomorrow but no need to use the good pen guys if you don’t need to. Ideally he gets through 2 but if starts to go bad you yank him quickly.
  13. I mean, April 6 is over 10 days off. You have plenty of time.
  14. You say that like other pictures exist We’ll always have that walkoff slam against Philly.
  15. God I can’t believe that putback didn’t go for UCF.
  16. End of the Belmont game, Belmont down 2 with Maryland shooting 1 more FT and 2.5 seconds left, Belmont coach calls his last timeout. Why call it before the FT? If he makes it you can throw the ball up the court regardless but by calling the timeout, you’re screwed if he misses (he did). Seems like he should have just waited.
  17. So my work pool scores 1-2-4-6-8-12 per round with an underdog bonus in the first two rounds where you add the difference in seeds. So if a 10 beats a 7, I get 4 points but 7 over a 10 is worth 1. Is there a good reason why, after I fill out my bracket, I shouldn’t just pick the underdog in round 1 if I have the better team losing in round 2? So if I have the 4 beating the 5 in the R32, should I just pick the 12 instead since I have the 5 losing anyway? I was pretty much going to pick all 9s and 10s unless I picked a 7 to beat a 2. Obviously might not work out but I’d only be losing a point on each game with the payoff being much larger. And if a couple hit, I’m in great shape.
  18. Edwards also got tossed for intentionally hitting a 29 year old career minor league catcher.
  19. It’s pretry hilarious that Harper held out for so long just so he could get the largest contract and Trout comes along and wipes it out 3 weeks later. I do wish Trout would have never signed his first extension just so we could have seen the contract a 26 year old Trout got in free agency.
