  1. 7pm starts are awesome for us Californians. I'm so acclimated now that I feel a little bit annoyed I have to wait all the way until 7 p.m. for a sporting event.
  2. If they win tonight, they should already be promoted to Cubs! in the GT titles
  3. And the Dongs have arrived. This is exactly what I expect from this team like 99 more times.
  4. With half the NL already tanking, that's going to be *so often*.
  5. Stop believing quality of contact means anything outside of very large sample sizes.
  6. Keep sliding, Jerry O'Connell, this is not our home universe.
  7. Bottom of the lineup coming up next inning :( Oh wait, that's Schwarber, Soler, Montero and Russell. There might be 100 HRs there.
  8. Just on a completely personal preference, it wasn't even my favorite of the postseason from him. The one that took the WC game from 1-0 to 3-0 was just as majestic and gorgeously violent, and it completely demoralized the opponents in double elimination game.
  9. I thought the latest sabr-smarts were that 3rd is a place for about your sixth-best hitter because it has that weird property of coming up with 2 outs/none on a lot. Edit: I see someone else already mentioned it. I really, really like Joe Maddon.
  10. I smiled when I realized about half of the actually useful Cardinals players in those videos are now Cubs.
  11. Why would we want to watch dumb stuff from Bryan LaHair or whoever when you could watch stuff like this over and over: [bbvideo=560,315] [/bbvideo]
  12. This team could 1997 the first 14 games and I would remain unfazed in my belief they are making the playoffs.
  13. I would need to see proof that contact to glove was less than 3 seconds. Looked closer to 4 to me, but I didn't exactly download the video and triple check. Someone hurry up and mainstream Field F/X so we can settle stuff like this.
  14. Edmondsing is slowing down subtly while the ball is in flight, the result being that you just barely get to the ball and have to stretch or dive and look like you made an amazing play at the edge of your range. Almora may not be doing it on purpose for highlights, it may just be the confidence that he's got the ball tracked, but he does it a lot.
  15. FB spin rate? Is that going to be a thing now?
  16. Can't count on historical numbers with RISP every year. Or was it strand rate last year. They look so blech on paper. Average with more downside than upside. Their organizational benefit of the doubt is netting them 10 wins in the prediction circuit.
  17. HMMMM. Almost immediately another poster pointed out that's exactly what happened.
  18. This is fun. 99 for Kane
