  1. After Broxton robbed Grichuk of a 2 out take the lead 2 run homer. [bbvideo=560,315]https://www.mlb.com/video/broxtons-wild-game-ending-catch/c-1789667583?tid=6479266[/bbvideo]

  3. Didn't the same thing happen to David Justice with the Braves?
  4. There's an 8 disc set that has all 7 games of the ws and game 6 of the nlcs.
  5. well about the only thing this game hasn't had is a triple play.
  6. Was that Grimm jumping like an idiot in the bullpen? That was almost as awesome as the slam!
  7. As soon as the Giants scored I knew Agony and Ivy would post to complain about Hendricks and his fastball
  8. Player's Weekend https://www.sbnation.com/2017/8/9/16119548/mlb-players-weekend-uniforms-caps-hats Grant with his take on the the hats.

  10. I was up at 6:30am yesterday, commuted an hour to work, an hour back, took the kids to some appointments, and was falling asleep by 10pm. I have to be up at 6:30 again tomorrow, so staying up until 1 isn't a good tactical move Yeah, I'm up at 5:30, have an hour commute and work 11-12 hour days. Staying up for a baseball game just isn't in the cards for me. I wake up 10:30 at night, a half an hour before I go to bed, and go to the mill and work 30 hours a day, 12 days a week, and when I get home my dad thrashes me to sleep with his belt.
  11. So did Duke break Arrieta? His mph is down tonight, isn't it?
  12. but we got to know the stat of a player hitting 1,000, 2,000, or 3,000 hit on his birthday. trout is ONLY the third That's a little misleading, because 5 players have gotten their 4,000 hit on their birthday.
  13. So Ross has been the killer this whole time. GR found out and tried to warn us but we wouldn't lesson?
  14. Sorry guys, I stupidly benched Murphy today on my fantasy team forgetting the Cubs were playing the Nats.
  15. HFA vs the dodgers, sure. HFA vs the Nats in the NLDS is within the realm of outside shot. Doesn't mean enough to NOT do a 6-man if that's the way Joe/FO want to go. If they acquire, say, Verlander, why not go to a 6-man if the guys are comfortable with it? Especially with Monty there to piggyback if someone has a garbage 2-4 inning start. Obviously the comfort level of the rest for the SPs is the main issue. One of the reasons I like the six man is to get Montgomery in the rotation so he throws more innings. I'd like to keep the option of him being a starter next year, available.
  16. Question: Do we go to a 6 man rotation again this year? How big does our lead have to be, or do they want home field advantage too?
  17. I hate it when Cubs fans do that to other Cubs fans
  18. Where did you see that quote? I don't recall that from an earlier read of this, for example: https://theathletic.com/75441/2017/07/13/theo-epstein-speaks-about-trading-for-jose-quintana/ To answer the question, I would guess rental reliever, although looking over the list I don't see any obvious candidates. Maybe Nicasio? I think it was in a clip during the game on Friday.
  19. This trade was a board highlight. A poster said that he called the Tribune Company switchboard and the secretary said a trade was imminent. We all laughed and the poster relied not to poke fun because he had cancer. Everyone was still reeling in shock when the trade got announced. No word if the original poster was the purple Fanta shirt guy. switchboard caller, Fanta shirt guy, wetbutt23: who is the all time best Chicago baseball trade leaker of all time? nocode!
