  1. I can think of one other poster who does.
  2. The guy that blew the game for Pittsburgh had a 7.5 ERA in 24 innings coming into today. I think the Pirates bet on the Marlins making the playoffs.
  3. 3-0 Pirates and new pitcher comes in with none on and one out. Marlins go single, single, walk, double, single and it’s 3-3.
  4. After that Giants sweep, we were 4 times more likely to win the Central (33.3%) as we were to miss the playoffs (7.6%). If you use the season-to-date stats on Fangraphs, it's over 8x as likely (42.6% for the division vs. 4.9% to miss the playoffs).
  5. Seems pretty crazy that they didn't move the start time up an hour or two knowing some massive rain storm was coming. I know that's happened in the past, pretty sure with a Cubs game or two.
  6. 2019 was a bad collapse too. With 12 games left, the Cubs were 2 games back of the Cardinals in the division, 1/2 game back of Wash for the first WC and 1 game up on Mil for the second WC. They proceeded to lose 9 straight games, the first of which was by 2 runs and the next 5 all by 1 run. Four of those 1 run games were to the Cards.
  7. A part of me is convinced that the Angels are nothing more than the West Coast Mets and that if you get Trout out of there, he’ll play 145 games each of the next four years.
  8. Can’t wait to see how we painfully lose this game.
  9. Acuna strikeout rate by year:
  10. It's Sunday night. The Cubs have missed out on the playoffs. Tom: This isn't the time to hang our heads and give up guys. I know it seems bleak but just remember that we're tied for first place in the 2024 NL Central right now. Lot of baseball left to be played.
  11. https://x.com/ESPNStatsInfo/status/1707220118151872934 i can’t get the stupid tweet to load correctly.
  12. Just call it now. We know how this ends.
  13. Counterpoint: the Marlins will probably sweep the DH while winning both games by 1 run.
  14. Ayton going to the Blazers too as part of a 3 team deal.
  15. I can’t imagine a scenario where another loss in the next 5 days is more painful than last night. Like if a team gets a walkoff hit, that’s baseball. But I can’t remember the last time a fielder just straight up missed a fly ball when he didn’t either lose it in the lights/sun or was at a full sprint. And then to have it when it did puts it over the top.
  16. Yeah, it probably was. I didn’t watch any of that Reds collapse but I think this was worse.
  17. If they lose tonight I think I’m done until the playoffs if they make it. It’s clear that nothing is going our way right now.
