    The Baseball Gods owe Dansby a bloop double next time up
  2. Illiterate Scholar
    Cubs had an xBA of .439 that game to the Reds' .252
  3. Illiterate Scholar
    Kriske is a very old looking 31 year old

    How does 107 mph at 29 degrees not leave GABP 100% of the time?
  5. Illiterate Scholar
    I'm guessing the catch probability on that double was not exceptionally low but hard to tell on TV

    I actually wonder if it's Berti who's played his way to being the guy DFA'd for Shaw. I would've thought his spot is relatively safe not long ago, but Counsell clearly thinks Lopez is better defensively and Brujan has more flexibility in terms of outfield play. Both also can hit left handed (not that they do it particularly well) which maybe fits better with Shaw.
  7. Illiterate Scholar
    An ump at this level HAS to be better than that. A breaking ball caught at that spot is not a strike. Can't have that. horsefeathers.

    This isn't to diminish Chourio at all because he's fantastic. However, he is very clearly the best thing about the Brewers org going forward.... and I don't think I'd take him over PCA.
  9. Illiterate Scholar
    They're keeping it 9-0 so the Brewers have to burn real pitchers and can't use position players. 4D chess.
  10. Illiterate Scholar
    Tough spot for Pressly here after whatever knee issue he had going on. I was expecting Merryweather because of that.
  11. Illiterate Scholar
    That PCA ball seemed like it would've been below the wind enough to carry more. Dang
  12. Illiterate Scholar
    Insane he hit a pitch in that location at 103 mph, 25 degrees. Only the wind kept that in.
  13. Illiterate Scholar
    I hope Mo continues on with the hilarious slash line and can be the key to acquiring a pitcher who slides into the top half of the rotation. To me, with how advanced he is as a hitter as a 21 year old crushing AAA and a questionable skillset beyond that, he feels like the proverbial "sell high" candidate. Hopefully the Twins and/or Marlins believe he can catch.

    That stadium sound choice for each opposing strikeout is awful
  15. Illiterate Scholar
    A Workman-induced meltdown by one of our two best bullpen arms followed by a great comeback by the offense. Sounds familiar
  16. Illiterate Scholar
    Great horsefeathers game by Happ
  17. Illiterate Scholar
    Would have been nice to have that zone for Mookie
  18. Illiterate Scholar
    Can you call both the 2-1 and 3-1 pitch a ball? I guess you can.
  19. Illiterate Scholar
    PCA is special
  20. Illiterate Scholar
    I assume Merryweather, Keller, and Pressly are all still available today if needed.
  21. Illiterate Scholar
    Was that a Wrigley special 1/30? That middle of the order is very good
  22. Illiterate Scholar
    Great take by Seiya, then a dong.
  23. Illiterate Scholar
    I'm all for a little personality but Jim Wolf having his own logo is a bit much for my taste
  24. Illiterate Scholar
    Hodge's ERA up over 7 now. Can't believe they called that Workman misplay a double.
  25. Illiterate Scholar
    That was fun after a very dark turn.
