    So does Joe let CJ pitch the 6th?

    Gutty performance by Lester, but did anyone think one run was gonna get it done??
  3. PackLandVA
    But could it have been worse??
  4. PackLandVA
    Well, at least when Lester gets pulled, there will be some offense in the game.

    Batting .172 in six games with 61 Ks so far. Batting .190 RISP in same stretch. Yikes!!!

    The Vaunted Dodgers won a game everyone was ready to punt a day ago. Let them have it. For me, it’s not as much that they lose, but how they lose. Two consecutive walks which turns into an two consecutive runs. First reliever out of pen giving up HR and lead the first batter he faces. Second reliever giving up another dong. And then the offense not finding first base after what, the second inning?? I get the Dodgers and Nats have great pitching. But so does Houston and the Yankees. At some point the hitters are gonna need to hit good pitching if they want to win games.

    Have a question about challenge replays. When a rule states that “if in the umpire’s judgement......”, is the on field umpire’s judgement who made the on field call taken into consideration when the guy in NY makes the ultimate decision? I mean some rules are clear cut. And others allow judgements. So who’s judgement matters? The on field ump or the replay official?

    To the DL and replace....?

    I tend to agree about DirecTV sucking. But I've had it for 20 years and have been too lazy/preoccupied to call and cancel. My own fault.

    :banghead: :banghead: Love rainy nights and DirecTV! :banghead: :banghead:

    Right Field Americans w/Disabilities Act section?
  12. PackLandVA
    Why s it BS. It's within the rules, right? I'd imagine the Cubs would do something similar if the situation arises.

    What is a soccer?

    He just realized Dusty tricked him into thinking Roark was starting.

    I saw his full presser on MLB network. Don't think this was shown on CSN.
  16. PackLandVA
    In the presser, a reporter asked Dusty if he thought about bringing in Kitzler to face Schwarber, noting that Madson has reverse splits against righties. Dusty, eyes glazed over, paused and then said, "no". I seriously think he doesn't know what "reverse splits" means. Then he said Kitzler throws low sliders, Schwarber likes low sliders, and he could hit a HR! A little later, a reporter asked if he considered walking Rizzo and pitching to Contreras. Dusty said that you can't put more runners on base in that situation. He is a brilliant manager.

    If you listen to these announcers, you'd swear the Cubs were one of the fastest teams in the league. According to them, all of them seem to be speedy!
  18. PackLandVA
    And funny looking!

    Another Plesac gem: "When they get the ball to this guy, Wader, check please!" speaking of the Cubs' closer.
  20. PackLandVA
    I'm out of town and can't watch CSN, but Plesac on MLBN is friggin' awesome. He is acting like he did when he was on locally. Big blue train conductor!! Woo wooooo!
  21. PackLandVA
    Question: don't know if this has been addressed in other threads, but has Addy altered his batting stance a little bit since coming back from DL? Something looks a little different. Like maybe he not standing as upright or open stanced.
  22. PackLandVA
    TWSS!!
  23. PackLandVA
    This may seem overly simplistic, but I think his bat is too big for him/his swing. Whether it's the length or weight or both, to the naked eye it just looks like he doesn't get the bat thru the hitting zone with much authority. His swing almost always seems a tick late. Wonder if choking up a bit (ala Rizzo) on the bat would help.
  24. PackLandVA
    Not too big a deal if Willy is suspended a game. Odds are he'll get a rest between now and clinching anyway. Anything more than a game could be problematic.

    Eddie J. gives up one in the 1st and five in the 2nd. Dodgers already up 6-0 oin bottom of 2nd. How does he still collect a paycheck??
