Danger time.

1/2 game to the Giants but whatever. That's an amazing result considering we played the best team in the league and three of the teams in the hunt played 3 of the worst 8 teams in the league and all were at home.
-
Welp I’m done for the day. Will check back later.
-
Let's do to Milwaukee what they did to us in 2018 (except let's just win the division outright). EDIT: 23.9% for the division, 38% for the playoffs per Fangraphs.
-
Just get 1 against the Braves and it's fine.
-
Is there a good reason to have not just left Merryweather in there? Only had thrown 14 pitches and the 7 hitter was up with nobody on base. Gave up the HR but also struck out 3 guys.

You posted an article earlier about the rest of the world catching up to the US. Seems like the rest of the world is catching up in general. Just using the world rankings, three teams from Post 4 advanced, and none of them were New Zealand’s group. Four teams from Pot 3 advanced, including two that won their group (though Switzerland was in New Zealand’s group). Of the 6 top seeds that were in Pot 1, only three won their group and one (Germany) didn’t even advance. Seems like I’ve heard a few “first ever win at the World Cup” also.

Was fun reading the first couple innings worth of posts. Lot of them aged quite poorly. And I’m sure had I actually been able to watch the game, I would have contributed a couple of those as well.

2023 “Other Games” Thread
soccer10k replied to PackLandVA's topic in Fred Hornkohl Game Thread Forum
Brewers were up 2-1 going into the ninth and then went fielding error, half swing bloop into LF, walk, grounder to third that was thrown wide of home allowing two runs to score. -
The Mets will forever provide entertainment to the rest of baseball and not in a way that Mets fans will like.
-
The Cubs have the 5th best run differential in the majors. The Padres are 6th.
-
If the Mets are involved, it’s probably them. Especially when this move is part of a roster blow up only 4 months after compiling a roster payroll over $300M. Love it.
-
Wasn’t 2019 the juiced ball year when like 2/3 of the teams set franchise single season home run records? If so, doubt you’re getting that Alonso again but it also means he probably hasn’t gotten much worse. They just have a normal ball now.
-
Thank you for this. I was going to search it out anyway for pure enjoyment like I used to with a Hawk call of any White Sox walk off loss.
-
Cubs had a forfeit lineup out that day and still managed to win.

NL Central: Reds, Pirates and others

Prior to this winning streak, Fangraphas had our playoff odds at 6.3 percent. It's now at 21.8 percent. The Cards in that same span want from 11.6 to 4.0.
-
Yeah, any doubt went out the window when you throw at him a second time.
-
No harm until waiting until after the Cards series. Winning 4 of the next 5 changes the equation a bit especially with the soft August schedule.

Eff Wild got a question about teams calling up the most top prospects in a certain span. They ran it both on total top-100 prospects called up in 1 or 2 years and then also weighted the score, so calling up the #1 guy is worth 100 points and calling up #100 is worth 1 point. I think they used BA. The list goes back to 1990. By total score, the 2015 Cubs lead the 1 year list and the 2014-15 Cubs lead the 2 year list. The 2014-15 Cubs were also tied for the most top-100 prospects called up in a 2 year span with 7.

Welcome PSD folks!

I thought all the Bears talk migrated to 312Sports.com? -
He hit his first home run since May 20 today. Prior to going 4-4 today, he had a .464 OPS since May 24.

Slide maybe? Come on Bellinger.

What is it about the throw to second that seems to cause pitchers way more of an issue than it should?
