Good of Justin Wilson to make sure we don’t play too long in Game 1.

Got to slide there, Rizzo.

NL Central: Reds, Pirates and others
soccer10k replied to Hairyducked Idiot's topic in General Baseball Talk
The 1987 Royals also went 83-79. -
The team that absolutely destroyed us in the NLCS last year? Yeah they really got us there. We didn't beat their ass en route to actually winning a championship or anything. So to recap... 2016: Cubs beat Dodgers in the NLCS and then the Cubs won a World Series. 2017: Dodgers beat Cubs in NLCS and then the Dodgers lose a crushing World Series. 2018: The Dodgers are dog horsefeathers. The Cubs are somehow above .500. Yeah sign me up to be the Dodgers, you're a horsefeathering idiot. Might as well add 2015 on there. Dodgers don't win a playoff series. Cubs win the wild card game and then dong their biggest rival into submission in the NLDS.

Cubs win!

Zobrist!

#2, to be specific. If they get Doncic, I'm going to be pissed. I bet they take either Ayton or Bagley. They already have Fox and are probably too stupid to think about playing both together. Plus they have Bogdanovic and Hield, aka Steph Curry 2.0.

grichuk? Only if he got to play the Cubs every game.

The difference is the Heat were actually a good team. I know the Cavs just rolled the Raptors but this is the same team that struggled to get by the Pacers. Stevens is going to exploit every little thing he can and it wouldn’t surprise me at all if Boston won the series.

They're also 8 games out of first, having dug themselves an enormous hole against an easy early schedule, and even if you put them as good a team as the DBacks right now, they're still projecting to finish 83-79 right now and well out of a playoff spot. Projected to finish ahead of them are the Cubs (95-67), the Dbacks (93-69), the Nats (92-70), the Cards (89-73), the Brewers (85-77), the Braves (85-77), and the Pirates (84-78), with the Phillies (83-79) projected even with them and the Rockies (82-80) a game back. If the Dodgers play at a 100 win pace the rest of the year, they’ll win 91 games, which might only be good enough for a wild card. If they’re merely a very good team rather than a great team and play at a 95 win pace, they’ll be at 87-88, which means they’d have to fight to get a wild card spot.

Brad Hand trying to blow it in San Diego. EDIT: Wong watches three straight sliders and the Cards lose. The first one was clearly outside but the next two were in the middle of the zone.
-
Ballgame!
-
Padres have 1st and 2nd with one out in the 10th and their 2 and 3 hitters coming up. Hope they don’t blow this one also. EDIT: Hosmer swings at a curve up at the letters and hits into a double play. Well done.
-
And they don’t score in the 9th.
-
Agreed. And over 30 pitches at that. Now he’s unavailable tomorrow We’re going to be up 8 runs in the 8th inning tomorrow anyway so it won’t matter.
-
iirc he always looked the part (for a pitcher) and just could never get one to fall Yep. I remember being shocked he was an 0-fer for his career when I first saw him swing. He’s not a good hitter by any means but I was thinking he would barely be able to handle a bat based on his line.
-
It's always nice when your pitcher bats in the first inning.

I like Gold Gloves and I cannot lie: the Jason Heyward thread

He appeared to be fixed until Duke wrote an article about Heyward and broke him again. -

soccer10k replied to Banedon's topic in Fred Hornkohl Game Thread Forum
they were cheap as hell this offseason and they're already better than us again you are honestly insane what the hell is wrong with most of you jesus horsefeathering christ anybody who wants to bet against the cubs winning this division, i will gladly take your action at even money with no limit. pm me please. Two days later it’s 49% for the Cubs and 27% for the Cards. -
He had a Game Score of -19, which is tied for the 15th worst Game Score of all time and the worst since 1940.

$1 for every strikeout before the ASB? $1 for every person he's murdered.

First night we were in Kauai a couple weeks ago was when they got 25-30 inches of rain in one day in the northern part of the island. Fortunately we were staying near the airport and weren't really planning on going to the northern part much.

Doesn't really reflect well on Scott Brooks, and I'm sure Washington fans probably aren't that impressed with him either. They only had three years with Harden before trading him and they were good all three years. There are plenty of reasons to dislike Brooks as a coach but I can’t fault him for not winning a title or making more than one finals with that trio.
