Crazy. So to avoid 122 losses to set a new record, the Rockies would need to go 32-74 the rest of the way. I have my doubts they can even manage 30 wins for the entire year.
All this went down in May/June 2019 and he actually did return to the Cubs in September of that year (weirdly made his return to the walk up that his wife sang).
Retired early the next year.
Had to remind myself how many of that 2016 four were All Stars that year. Bryant and Rizzo were (Baez and Contreras weren’t), plus Zobrist, Fowler, Russell, Arrieta and Lester.
What a squad!
It would be funny if our lineup went on to chase this pitcher out of the game in the 1st inning after that monologue than he’s got something like 150 friends and family at WF today.
Funny that when Len and Boog were together they’d always be telling Seinfeld stories, Seinfeld quotes and many times they were recycled, and I’d always be like “More Seinfeld please!”. Boog and JD recycling stories gives me a very different reaction lol.
Boog telling Steele that he is welcome any time he wants to join them in the booth is kind of ironic. Boog is welcome to travel with the team any time he wants to call a road series lol.
