  1. the middle infield should clearly be murphy/baez the rest of the way, assuming murphy stays healthy and productive. if russell hasn't lost his starting job for the rest of the season, then it's because of joe being dumb. That's not losing his job; that's bringing in a rental to offset an injured player who can't hit worth a damn right now. that is a very odd distinction you're making. losing the starter role for the rest of the season counts as losing his job in the context of the post you replied to. it is very reasonable to assume that russell is not happy about primarily being a bench player for the rest of 2018.
  2. You talking the remainder of this year? Have to think they stick with Murphy Baez up the middle Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk That's not losing his job; that's bringing in a rental to offset an injured player who can't hit worth a damn right now. the middle infield should clearly be murphy/baez the rest of the way, assuming murphy stays healthy and productive. if russell hasn't lost his starting job for the rest of the season, then it's because of joe being dumb.
  3. Indians aren't as good as they appear to be. Half their games this year have been against KC, CWS, Detroit & Minn. Imagine how good all our players' stats would be if that were the case for us. i'm not talking about what they've done in the regular season, i just think they look really good for the playoffs because of the top-end pitchers they can ride. although i had no idea that miller was broken again.
  4. the indians are low key stacked
  5. you guys are being weird, i don't like it
  6. i don't need context for percentages, my dude
  7. there is a non-trivial chance that the cardinals win the division. it doesn't matter what i'm "worried" about. I'll take my chances with "non-trivial" chance. They're 4 games back, and finish the season with the Dodgers, Giants, Braves, Brewers and Cubs. well no shart, the cubs are the heavy favorites. i just don't see the point in pretending like the cardinals suck and that it's stupid to be paying attention to them the cubs are actually sweet now, no need to resurrect the duke meme
  8. fangraphs says there's over a 10% chance somebody else wins the nl central, and fangraphs is supposed to be good
  9. the cardinals don't suck at all, and i want my favorite team to win the division Your favorite team will win the division. I"m not worried about the Cardinals catching us. Are you? there is a non-trivial chance that the cardinals win the division. it doesn't matter what i'm "worried" about.
  10. I don't understand worrying about either the Cards or Brewers. They both suck, and I'm not worried at all about facing either one in the playoffs. the cardinals don't suck at all, and i want my favorite team to win the division
  11. Totally agree. We get Nola now too. This is going to be a brutal stretch. brutal is an exaggeration. it's a long trip against solid teams, but they also aren't playing any legitimately good teams other than the 1 in atlanta.
  12. jose martinez tries so desperately to look intimidating at all times
  13. colon really kind of ruined this
  14. bj upton and colon
  15. "so then he says my contract allowed them to get yu darvish"
  16. Haha, fair. But at the time I really liked what they did in the offseason and am sure I’m not alone. well yeah, we all thought it was fine. that doesn't mean it wasn't a disaster.
  17. the openly homophobic christian driven in by the probably secretively homophobic christian
  18. ughhhhh for the last time, i don't hate them. god does.
  19. waves and waves
  20. for maximum aggravation, the dodgers would catch fire after this series and then beat the cubs out for the second wild card as the cardinals win the division
