  1. If this isn’t the fewest runs and hits in a four game sweep, it’s got to be awfully close. 3 runs and 12 hits is pathetic.
  2. That was pretty awesome. The place went nuts when Dumper donged to tie it but this was another level.
  3. 9 years ago… High drive into right back at the wall it is GONE. Grand slam, Montero! Game 1 hero!
  4. If only they were the Cardinals they'd have more to choose from.
  5. Kittridge, Hodge, Pomeranz, Brown and Keller all averaged more than 1 K/IP.
  6. Yeah, I mean unless I’m missing something, there’s no reason he shouldn’t score there. There’s 1 out so he should be tagging, in which case it shouldn’t matter whether or not the CFer caught the ball. Just wait until he catches it and jog home. It’s tougher for the other runners since they won’t be tagging anyway (well the runner on second might be). But the runner on third should 100% score there.
  7. I'm really not sure what exactly you're arguing with at this point. The original post was that normal people don't behave like this, which it seems like you agree with. It also seems like you agree that he needs to tone it down and that acting like this doesn't help him. I mean, is he unique in that he's literally the only baseball player who throws his helmet like this? Nope. You got me there. But I would venture a guess that he's in the top 0.01% of baseball players in terms of how often he slams his helmet. And Misiorowski getting overly excited early in a playoff game and PCA slamming his helmet countless times this season aren't comparable in any way really.
  8. It's most definitely not. How many other players slam their helmet after a vast majority of their PA's that end in outs? It's fine to slam a helmet in frustration after a big play. But he does it after striking out in the second inning of 0-0 game in August.
  9. Wait so you’re saying it’s bad to be sacked the same number of times as you complete a pass and to lose more yards on sacks that you have passing yards for the game?
  10. I’d rather keep Shaw and hope he figures it out a bit at the plate than trade him and get Suarez.
  11. Just 1 if you get an OF bat like he said. Then you have the FA bat and PCA, leaving one spot open.
  12. https://www.mlb.com/news/cubs-set-roster-for-nl-wild-card-series This says he was named to the roster so must have not gotten into a game.
  13. We had to start Boyd on short rest in G1 and couldn't trust Shota to pitch at all in Game 5. Starting pitching at the end of the year was definitely a problem. With better starting pitching, maybe we take either G1 or G2 and win the series in 4.
  14. There are no legitimate excuses. But I'm sure Jed and Ricketts will find "excuses".
  15. I saw earlier they were up 1 at halftime but just assumed they were going to win. Losing to Northwestern at home ... oof.
  16. The Cardinals would have to finish in last place for like 30 years straight for my hatred of them to wane.
  17. Going to enjoy watching the ALCS. Will probably skip the NLCS though.
  18. Nico smokes a ball right at a guy. Because of course that couldn't get through.
  19. 0-14 with a walk with 0 and 1 out 6-11, 3 HR, 3 BB with 2 out.
  20. Brewers with 0 and 1 out are 0-12 with a walk. Brewers with 2 out are 5-9 with 2 walks.
  21. Well that was our chance. Probably not getting a better one than that.
