    Not nearly as bad as packing into the horsefeathering red line. I normally walk 3 blocks down to Sheffield's for a beer and wait out the traffic. Takes 30 minutes for it to clear. Wow, never been there. Food and beer list looks great. Is it quicker to jump on the red line at Belmont to head downtown after leaving Sheffield's? Thinking of taking the wife and staying downtown for a Sunday game sometime in June/July then staying downtown. Food is meh, beer is amazing. Yeah, you're closer to Belmont or I think the Wellington brown line from there

    Sheffields has become my default post game walk. Well, it became that like 20 years ago and still is. NISEI LOUNGE I love it there, but it's too close to the park/postgame traffic for this convo Also shout-out to Joe's on Broadway, which was my pre- and post-game spot through the 2016 playoffs. Never had a line and never charged cover

    I don't think I'd seen Quintana smile before. It's weird

    I don't typically say "horsefeathers you" to people I'm happy with - do you?

    This is a really stupid question. From that article, it looks like his release point was a couple inches higher with the curve than with his other pitches. Is that common? Does he risk tipping the pitch to someone with, say, Joey Votto's plate vision?

    When we get on the bases, we are very good at them

    I've been spending a lot of time in DC lately and needling Nats fans about future Cub Bryce Harper. For most, the Cubs aren't even on their radar. They expect him either to be signed by 1) the Yankees or 2) the Nats, in that order. I don't think most of them have any idea of how the luxury tax works.

    the sopranos gifs are model trains, not a cause of but instead a mere trifling distraction on our path to our imminent demise. eat at arbys is this a variation of "go eat a sandwich by yourself?"

    Tommy Pham is only a little bitter about how the Cardinals have treated him. The SI article is really good - you definitely feel for this guy. Plus he cites his own WAR and quotes the $8 mil/year value of WAR to highlight his pay discrepancy. Pretty impressive stuff. This guy is like Jake Arrieta but smart https://www.si.com/mlb/2018/04/02/tommy-pham-st-louis-cardinals?utm_campaign=sinow&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_medium=social&xid=socialflow_twitter_si

    This is the same nonsense you spouted ad nauseam last year. We told you repeatedly that you were digging too deep into things and trying to make stats say things that they weren't capable of saying. And then the Cubs BABIP'd .328 in the second half last year, completely debunking your notions. And now you're ready to dive back in after a 5 game sample? I mean, seriously, you are trying to take Pull% from 4 games and deducing some Big Theory about our organizational philosophies. First half 2017: 43.6 (1st) Second: 39.9 (16th) They didn't debunk horsefeathers. Maddon even talked about it several times last season. He said he was preaching the same thing but the hitters weren't listening. It's not an organizational philosophy; it's a lot of young hitters who aren't yet adept at hitting the ball where it's pitched. This is nothing, and you should feel bad for saying it

    I get that it's annoying that they are messing up their draft position, but "tanking" is always a front office strategy, never a player strategy. The players are never going to lose on purpose. why is this at all worth saying?

    we are in fact still in the 5th actually

    Wrigley will be just as bad the next 2 months. It's why being a home run or bust team like the Cubs will cost you. This is a very stupid thing you just said
  22. javy knows my name
    What? No. This zone has been really good so far, and that was a very close pitch
