  1. ND up four with two minutes left and let OSU go 65 yards for the TD.
  2. OSU about to lose to Notre Dame with only 10 points on the board. OSU also only scored 35 on Youngstown State and 23 on Indiana. Meanwhile, Washington State (currently ranked #21) about to beat #14 Oregon State.
  3. Got to be a major leaguer for one day. And got paid $4,000 for that one day.
  4. I understand the pre-snap penalties because most of their players have never played in a tempo style offense. They've spent years playing in a huddle offense and they have a new QB. That's going to take an adjustment. It's clear they don't have the talent on defense that they've had in the past. It think they have some talent in the secondary (Wohler, Smith, Hallman), but the lack of pass rush will make any secondary look bad. But they're 3-1 with the lone loss being on the road to a ranked team that, arguably, was taken away by the refs. They're in a good - not great, but good - spot.
  5. Waiting for Ryne Sandberg to say in an interview that the Cubs have skidmarks in their britches.
  6. Mikolas can draw an "X" next to that mustache and that'll be his ass. (Name the movie reference)
  7. Fun fact, Koufax had a tryout with the Milwaukee Braves that he had committed to prior to committing to signing with the Dodgers. He still went to the tryout, and the Braves offered him $10K more than the Dodgers offered him. But he chose the Dodgers because he had already told the Dodgers that he would sign with them. Being from Brooklyn likely influenced his decision to sign with the hometown Dodgers. If the Dodgers had already moved, or he knew that they were moving to LA, I wonder if he would have been a Milwaukee Brave.
  8. Is there any other city/state that has had three better players wear the same number?
  9. They had two pitchers but they thought they needed another bat so they traded them for that putz Ozuna.
  10. Houser has shut down the Cardinals before - 9 IP, 3 H, 0 ER on 9/4/21. Career ERA of 3.19 vs STL.
  11. Because it's a long season, and you can't go to the same 4-5 relievers every game. Ask the 2018 and 2019 Cubs.
  12. The networks need more content because of the writers/actors strike.
  13. Bakh did have swelling in his knee leading up to the game which is why he didn't play, not because he was afraid of artificial turf.
  14. Skip the meal. Soda and fries double the cost; Whopper on its own is $5.69. If you need a soda, go to a nearby Speedway/Quik Trip and get a 30-oz soda for $1.29 or bring one with you. Went to Five Guys earlier this year and it was $20. Now, THAT is a rip-off.
  15. Had Brown, Clarke, Seminaris, and Smith on my mental list. Wondering if Clarke's upside is a poor-man's Christian Walker. Both short-ish, stocky RHH 1B. Both went to the University of South Carolina. Both walk a ton and walked 50+ times their junior year at South Carolina. Difference is that Walker strikes out a lot less, but Clarke put up a lot more power earlier in his career. In AA Walker struck out 19% of the time, BB 9.2%, and HR 4.2%. Clarke struck out 29%, BB 16.8%, and HR 5.4%. Walker didn't break out until his age 28 season.
  16. That's on only 130 PA's, so it's still a small sample. You're correct in that no one knows yet. His K rate in the minors is 26% and he was pushed fairly aggressively (AA in his first full season, majors in his second full season). He was only drafted three years ago, and no minor league season and minimal college season in 2020. But that's why you have Wiemer and Chourio at AAA next year.
  17. That Wiemer had by far the second most plate appearances speaks volumes about the patchwork job and little that Counsell had to work with in the OF this year, primarily due to injury. Yelich, (hopefully a healthy) Mitchell, and Frelick should be the OF next year with Taylor and either Perkins or Canha as the backups with Wiemer, Chourio at AAA. My guess is that Canha is back as the primary 1B next year.
  18. That's a big issue - the offense couldn't keep the defense off the field and give them a rest.
  19. Add the starting LG to that list
  20. 80's too...
  21. Some freezing cold takes the first couple of pages in this thread...
  22. According to some we should have DFA'd Canha after he got off to a slow start his first week with the Brewers.
  23. Maybe Wisconsin needs an opener to play the first half? First half and first drive of the 2nd half were terrible. Rest of the game was a great offensive performance. Saw big improvements in play calling and blocking in the 2nd half, more using play action to open up the passing game as well as have the TEs come back across the line to seal off the OLB/S who were crashing down on run plays. Ashcraft had an awful first half, whiffed on several blocks that blew up plays. LG missed a safety blitz that blew up another 3rd down play, but to the safety's credit, it looked like he used the umpire to hide himself before blitzing. That being said, the LG was too quick to double on the DE because nobody was lining up in front of him instead of backing up, looking around, then doubling. Need to figure out their pass defense. Going to be a 2011 type of defense where they will have to figure it out without a lot of good pass rushers.
  24. Other than have an .830 OPS and be on pace for another 35 HR season as of June 1st? Other than have a .991 OPS the first 21 PA's after coming back from the DL?
