  1. You're good....should have been more specific than just 'travel time'.
  2. https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/the-cubs-are-ohtanis-other-outlier-finalist/ Not sure if anyone has mentioned the travel time yet, but it comes up in this article. Seattle travels almost twice as many miles as the Cubs do in a given season. I'm sure Theo is aware of it.
  3. Schiano is a total scumbag, but I'm very excited to watch Clay Travis sweat as Tennessee progresses to worse and worse candidates.
  4. Barring anything seriously unexpected, we're going to go into next year as overwhelming favorites to win the division, which makes me very hesitant to do anything drastic. Obviously the pitching is a concern going forward, but I don't see any real fixes in this offseason. If the right trade comes along, I trust Theo to take advantage. But I'd be totally fine going into next year with 'standard' replacements for Jake and Lackey, a couple bullpen pieces, and whoever we need to fill out the bench.
  5. Alright can someone fill me on what's going on? I'd like to think I know enough to catch a joke that got 11 stars, but apparently...
  6. I'm in, at least for now. Both of these teams are pretty entertaining.
  7. Spin zone: Now Maddon isn't in charge of the bullpen for the rest of the game.
  8. Probably when he went 1-24 to start the postseason last year. I don't remember that, but was he making contact and hitting it right at people? I don't remember him whiffing at this rate last year Less Ks, but from what I remember he basically turned into Jason Heyward/Juan Pierre. The Ks are new, but we've seen these small stretches of ineptitude before (on this stage)
  9. Yeah I get that, but the counter is that the best two hitters the Dodgers have are up next in the 8th. It's a tough call.
  10. Just dong Maeda until it makes sense to have Lackey close it out.
  11. Whatever you mean by that first part, yes you are.
  12. no Probably when he went 1-24 to start the postseason last year.
  13. Nevermind I'm an idiot. Trying to be like Tim with the wine, and apparently it's starting to do what it's supposed to do. Edit: Oh great even Tim corrected me. I'll take the next couple plays off.
  14. What? Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk Wait I was pretty sure that hit off the bat/was a foul ball. Did that hit his forearm?
  15. If he's warming up Maeda, he might just punting here until/unless they score some runs. Let's put it out of reach. Bryant always swings through middle middle fastballs, but it seems like it's every AB this October.
  16. The cutting edge, endless money Dodgers throwing out Ethier, Granderson, and Utley is pretty amusing.
  17. At least this game is moving. Win or lose I can get to sleep at a reasonable time.
  18. Remember when Jake's pitches would move that much and he would hit the mitt every time? Pretty unbelievable considering he's a solid pitcher just spraying the zone.
  19. I for one am very excited for the upcoming walk, bloop single, basket shot combo.
  20. I know KB put a few off the scoreboard, but that one might have topped them all.
  21. I just want to see Kershaw. If they're going to knock us out, make them do it with their best.
  22. Oh god Julianna Zobrist is singing the national anthem just close this thread up. Everyone off to their various off season homes (Bears, Hawks, Politics, AFL, etc.)
  23. Happ remains dead, though obviously his play in CF last night didn't help.
