  1. 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.
  2. 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
  3. 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.
  4. Have we ever had a worse baserunner?
  5. Terrence Mann really eased his pain tonight
  6. 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
  7. Sign stealing bastards, you think?
  8. Booker just had the half of his career 33 in 22 min 69/88/100 LeBrons in a 20 point hole
  9. 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.
  10. What a disappointment Anthony Davis' body is
  11. Poor managing by Ross and Davies needs to be released
  12. Davies is really trying to get his changeup back tonight. He's been saying that he hasn't had it all year but he's thrown some really good ones tonight already.
  13. Would there be such backlash if he said Bob Gibson or Luis Tiant instead?
  14. IMO the Cubs are absolutely cheating with the rest of em and I couldn't be happier about it
  15. I would love to see what this sensitivity training entails
  16. That Baez bomb was so loud my co-worker didn't even see my screen and asked who just homered
  17. I'm so glad the organizational pitching is now in line or better than most of the league finally. Even if they're likely using illegal substances and all that horsefeathers. If you ain't cheatin you ain't tryin, right?
  18. horsefeathers. Dodgers, down a run in the 9th, 2 on, Betts smokes a laser to LF and O'neill makes a leaping grab just before the wall to end the game. Thought for sure he had the gw hit off the bat. How long are the Cardinals gonna pretend like Reyes is a closer with his 26 walks in 29 IP. That team is such smoke and mirrors. We should leave them in the dust soon.
  19. Thanks for trying David Price as an opener tonight, Doyers
  20. Hell yeah, Suns
  21. Would it kill Hughes to alter his dong call sometimes? I mean, no-doubters, where the OF barely move... we don't need drama. Give me a "Holy crap that ball is destroyed, so-and-so isn't even giving chase, and by the time it lands, Cubs will be in the lead" or something like that. This whole, "its got a chaaaaaaaance" on 450 bombs clearing the batters eye are just dumb to me.
