  1. no we just called a guy up you've never heard of who is actually very good yay now we don't have to use arrieta in the playoffs
  2. every time this thread gets bumped with optimism, it reminds me of the scene in little big league when billy heywood's favorite player gets a seeing-eye single and billy is convinced that means he's coming out of it.
  3. as a tribute to the good baez of old, we should all say "who?" whenever baez comes up since he's like the 12th best cub and minor league baez never knew who the twelfth best guy on his team was.
  4. Needs more KB. yup. based on that video, you'd think javier baez was the team mvp and that kris bryant flukishly hit three home runs in a game was otherwise just a guy.
  5. Speaking as someone who's been lucky enough to root for a good team the last few seasons, yes, there is a lot of bad football. don't you guys both like college football
  6. RIP Fred. He was always kind and funny on here. I met him once and he was even kinder and funnier. He bought me a drink and asked me where I was from and immediately started in on stories he knew about the place. Reading this thread, it seems like that was a go-to for him, and I think it's a really beautiful one. He went out of his way to find things in common and try to engage with everyone he met if only because, well, wouldn't that be nice to do? And wouldn't that be fun for both of us? A great man. He will be missed, and not only by his closest loved ones, or all of us here who are lucky enough to be able to share our stories with about his greatness, but also by people all over the country, people who may not even know he's gone, but will always remember that especially kind and interesting man they happened to have a conversation with once.
  7. sorry i forgot to start the thread i was still out of town on important business business does not get done in a day you know
  8. welcome to half hearted gam thread i am treymon i am out of town on important business forgot to do this go cubs you must not lose also have nachos everyone
  9. you people are insane, vin scully is amazing
  10. why should a man running towards second base be awarded home when the ball goes in the dugout?
  11. why do i see such different numbers on baseball reference? do you have playoffs added in?
  12. you get to see the best pitcher on the cubs and the best post-break pitcher in the national league. you poor thing.
  13. i guess I'm just a broken cynic in this regard, but i generally just assume everyone at the top is cheating and probably lots of other people too. bolt is that much faster than everyone else naturally? surrrrre. katie ledecky wins all her races by 15 seconds without cheating? likely story.
  14. that was one of the more egregious "here are some boobs for you fans at home to ogle" montages i've seen in a while.
  15. just tell heyward to stand there and take pitches until he strikes out, making the pitcher throw three or four pitches is better than the auto-out whenever he makes contact
  16. jd throwing his a-game at the meteorologist
  17. lackey should spike himself in the balls as punishment for not making that play
  18. that is absolutely as far as 58 year old miguel montero can hit the ball. it should count as a double.
  19. He should be "mad at" the genius who put a C(or CI) fresh off of catching 15 straight scoreless inning behind the plate in LF so he can force a fat worthless toad into the game behind the plate. And ahead of time, NO...i don't buy that the 24 year old can't catch a day game after a night game, especially considering the limited time behind the plate he's spent overall. Marlins 1 Maddon 0 i'm gonna bury you underground, ram1380
