  1. Damn, 6 Ks for Davis in his last 2 after 4 straight without.
  2. Been watching the highlights of his dongs and he's been handling a lot of pitches that he really failed massively on when with the Cubs. Granted it's basically a 2 weak tear he's on and he's still only at an 844 OPS... really seems like he'd be higher... but anyway I've seen him turn on a couple fastballs that were well above the zone, breaking balls on the outer half that he's gone oppo on. Dude is locked the hell in right now.
  3. Girardi requests 3 checks on Mad Max, the final being in the middle of an inning. Then when Max takes issue with the last check, Girardi ramps up the baseball action by trying to incite a fight, and gets ejected. This what you wanted, MLB?
  4. One of the best GW plays/shots I can recall. That was ridiculous. Really want Phoenix to get the title. Doing this without Paul, too, which is nuts. Lol George
  5. Come out of retirement, Ben. We need you. This story is so fucked up. I can't even imagine being in his shoes.
  6. deGrom is totally gonna set the ERA record
  7. Made the mistake of drafting him in fantasy a couple years ago and it was nice how he filled up the rest of the stat sheet, but infuriating to watch how freaking much he defers and especially cowers in the final quarter. And this dude is owed, what, 140-150m over the next 4 years? Yeeeeesh.
  8. Ben Wallace was slightly worse over an entire season. That Simmons stretch is 33.8%. Wallace was 80-238 for 33.6% in 2000-2001. Holy horsefeathers thats unspeakably awful. I knew he was bad but I didn't realize he was barely over 40% for his career.
  9. Davis' last 4 games have been really good. 3:0 BBK with a HR and a 2B
  10. Is that a record for a 71 FTA sample size? I mean thats pretty hard to wrap the head around.
  11. Just don't force him into the leadoff spot right away. Put him at the bottom of the order and let him build some comfort for a while. Too many mentions of him being the leadoff CF of the future.
  12. 3 weeks from now we're gonna hear how KB has been playing through a shoulder injury he suffered 6 weeks ago on an awkward swing
  13. Wouldn't you want to see if he can help you in the pen? I mean cut Ortega or Sogard loose already and stick any player out there. At least the guy has interesting velo and stamina.
  14. Have we ever had a worse baserunner?
  15. Terrence Mann really eased his pain tonight
  16. Padres up 2-0 top 9 Reds score 4 Hosmer hits a 2 run shot for the tie RH Caratini walks it off with another 2 run shot
  17. Sign stealing bastards, you think?
  18. Booker just had the half of his career 33 in 22 min 69/88/100 LeBrons in a 20 point hole
  19. Seriously how is he still on the roster much less pitching in fairly high leverage situations? I'm confused. What is Andrew Chafin doing so well to earn Ross' unshakable trust? He doesn't miss bats, his K-BB is 10th in our pen, his SIERA and xFIP are about a run and a half or more above his ERA. Why is Brothers in the doghouse; thats the question we should be asking. Why are we seldomly using the guy who's 2nd behind Kimbrel in K-BB? What teams essentially dispose of guys who strike out 40% of the guys they face? Even his walks were mostly in clusters. He's been good. Undeserving of pitching once a week. Zach Davies was horsefeathering pathetic today and has been mostly all year. Inefficient, got barreled several times. Why did he get the 5th inning? He gave up a laser to a horrible hitting pitcher. He gave up well-struck singles to start the inning, got bailed on a pickoff, and proceeded to walk the next guy, another shitty hitter, on 5 mostly uncompetitive pitches. He didn't horsefeathering have it, yet Ross let him unravel unchecked for some reason.
  20. What a disappointment Anthony Davis' body is
  21. Poor managing by Ross and Davies needs to be released
