  1. This Cabrera trade has been a disaster so far. I know Caissie hasn’t been good in Miami, but the fact that we gave up a legitimate asset for a guy with a 5+ ERA isn’t great.
  2. 5-6 with 1 game remaining in a 12 game stretch against the two worst teams in the NL.
  3. Mbappe will eventually get the record but Messi might get there first. Hat trick tonight so he ties the record with 16 career WC goals.
  4. Mbappe with 14 WC goals now. Record is 16. He’s only 27 also. Realistically he’s got at least 4 more matches this WC, plus the 2030 Cup. I would think he’d be on the 2034 team, though France is typically pretty deep. Even with average performances the rest of this tourney and in 2030, he’s going to blow the record out of the water.
  5. Why the f are you swinging at 2-0 with the bases loaded, Shaw? Dumbass.
  6. It’s always amazing how frequently pitchers make a bad throw to the bases. I don’t know what the percentage is, but it’s got to be way higher than we’d expect.
  7. Well, we’ll always have that 20-3 stretch in April and May. cubs about to guarantee .500 or worse in 12 games against the two worst records in the league.
  8. So PCA hits for the cycle and the only run he scores or drives in was on the home run. Kind of sad for the offense.
  9. I definitely didn’t have Spain 0, Cape Verde 0 on my World Cup bingo card.
  10. With our medical staff, he'll probably have a couple PH or DH chances in the next couple days, then they'll announce he's out until July.
  11. Also teams are only going to go after him more if they think they can get him to react and get tossed.
  12. I’m glad the Knicks won so I don’t have to get irrationally angry at the league for not retroactively assessing Wemby a flagrant for the landing spot foul on Brunson. Because there’s no way they suspend him for Game 6 even if he 100% should have been.
  13. Only the 15th time a player has scored 45+ in a Finals game.
  14. Congrats to the Knicks on defeating The Extender.
  15. LOL. Wemby commits a landing spot violation on Brunson who twists his ankle. Could have been a flagrant which would mean a Wemby suspension for Game 6 and the refs just swallow their whistle.
  16. Lol. Was just coming to post something along these lines.
  17. Yamamoto perfect through 7 against the White Sox.
  18. Giants pitching staff: bad and bigoted: https://www.mccoveychronicles.com/san-francisco-giants-analysis/107734/giants-pride-night-bigotry-landen-roupp-jt-brubaker
  19. None. The previous record was 13 K's by Skubal and Kershaw. In the first three innings, he struck out 8 batters. That requires a minimum of 25 pitches (8 K's plus at least 1 pitch to the 9th batter). He only threw 34 pitches total. That's insane.
  20. If it was 0-0 at halftime, I'd be much more worried. The fact that it was 3-0 makes me buy into the "playing it safe" narrative because the game was pretty much over at that point. This is also where the bloated World Cup helps. In 2022 we played on the 21st, 25th, and 29th. This year we play on the 12th, 19th and 25th. So a lot more rest time, which helps for recovery.
  21. Personally I’d take the Mexico win easily. I’d probably take the Portugal win too because it was over a much better opponent and helped set the stage for what came later. That being said, this was really fun.
  22. Poch will address the Pulisic situation after the match is not what I was hoping to hear. Maybe I'm reading too much into it but if he wasn't hurt, wouldn't they just say that?
