Come on now. They will be somewhere between 6.5 and 7.5 games up. It will not be close to a must win game. Not even within shouting distance. -
So we still would have lost 0.6 to nothing.
-
Since May 20th they've played just 4 games under. They started the season really bad and never recovered. They're not great by any stretch, but they're gonna beat some teams. 6th in the AL in runs. 2nd in homeruns. (of course minus Nelson Cruz now) Butt pitching has been their big problem.

2021 Miscellaneous College Football Thread
DuWayne Steurer replied to LouisEly's topic in Other Sports
I think right now, even though they say the motivation is not financial, the Alliance is just laying the groundwork to be able to compete with SEC dollars. Sure, it's starting with verbal/handshake agreements, and on the surface it doesn't really mean anything, but it could lead to some things with the leagues moving towards something more concrete in the future, and hopefully/maybe there will be some stability with teams not jumping or getting poached. Who can say? It's something. Obviously, the commisioners of these conferences (and probably the AD's of some of the schools) are feeling threatened by the clout the SEC has, if they didn't already. This is just the start of these leagues banding together to find a common cause. What will come of it? Who knows. Unless we want a 24 or 32 team SEC, I guess it doesn't hurt for them to start discussing things. -
He was pretty heated, lol.
-
Soft line-out and runner was going back to the base and he was .......maybe half a step out of the baseline (if that) and blue called him out for running out of the baseline to end the game.
-
Eh. He's having a season that's well below his standards, and they're losing 5-1.
-
My guess is that Houser is the #4 starter in the playoffs and Anderson and Lauer would be longmen/piggyback type guys if needed.
-
Hence why I said, "feels like". #Grammar101 I feel like when our average starters start, we have a pretty decent (50/50) chance of winning.
-
I don't think anyone expected Rowdy to be a 1.050 OPS guy. I do wonder if he can be an .850 OPS guy. Everyone goes through ups and downs.
-
Anderson has a 100 ERA+. He's perfectly average. Saying he doesn't give the team a chance to win is false.
-
Yeah, I'm totally good with bud sticking around. I haven't been the biggest fan of his, but he showed in this playoff that he has learned from his past mistakes and learned how to adjust and set playoff rotations and squeeze more minutes from his best guys. Is he the best coach in the NBA? Unarguably, he's not. But we got to the top of the mountain with him, and it would be absolutely silly to make a change at this point

The reds are only 10 games over 500 because they have a garbage bullpen. A couple minor upgrades hasn't changed that. I'm not worried about them playing the Cubs and Marlins. They just lost two games in a row to the Cubs. These bad teams aren't just going to lay down and lose games on purpose. And the tigers aren't the slam dunk. They're just a few games below 500. They've been playing pretty good ball in the second half of the season, even if there's nothing for them to play for. I just can't see Cincy going on a sustained run and winning 9 out of 10 or 17 out of 20 because their bullpen just can't hold on to leads. If they prove me wrong and wipe out a nine and a half game lead in the next five weeks, kudos to them. But at this point in time I don't see it

WInning game 7 of the Nets series was a super ...... exciting doesn't seem like the word, but I'll say exciting because my internal thesaurus isn't up to snuff this morning. That was the kind of basketball game that Bucks fans will remember for a generation. Durant and Giannis put on an amazing show, and it was (literally) a game of inches that couldn't be decided in 48 minutes. The Hawks series was (as adam said) the Bucks getting off the mat and putting the past failures and learning process of losing in the playoffs and Bud understanding playoff rotations and subs behind us. Even after Giannis got hurt, I just didn't feel like we were gonna lose that series. Beating the Suns felt like the culmination of the last handful of years of hard work, putting in the time and effort, learning the lessons in the playoffs and that game 6 the "holy crap balls.......we actually did it" I never felt like we were down and out, even at 2-0. I wasn't super jacked about the Bucks chances, but I never felt like it was "over". I guess why game 6 (for me) was so monumentally awesome was .... watching a guy (Giannis, duh) just decide not to lose, and just put such an amazing display of effort, athleticism, and almost superhuman willpower to just grasp that thing that's been narrowly out of reach... was super special. Game 7 of the Nets series was an awesome *game*, but Finals game 6 was something we might never see again, and I don't think I'm overselling it.

Zavala set up low and away and Lynn tossed a cookie right down the middle. Lynn, in his post game comments said it was his own fault for missing the target, and said that on 3-0 they shouldn't have thrown anything close for Vlad to hit. And of course, after the game, LaRussa made zero comment about the incident with Zavala. LaRussa is a miserable old sot, and I wish baseball would be done with him.
-
Gonna be a lot of finger pointing in the off-season if the Padres don't pull a rabbit out of the hat and grab that 2nd wild card from the Reds, which looks extremely unlikely at this point.
-
13 up on the Cards with 35 games to go. They aren't mathematically eliminated, but are we feeling pretty good about them being firmly in the rear-view yet? Reds are on their last gasp after losing the first 2 games of this series. Even winning today doesn't do them much good in the division race now.
-
Yeah, at this point I think Reds fans are going to be following a lot more Padres games than Brewers games over the next 5 weeks. Redszone is apoplectic. Basically the Brewers are cheating because we have good pitchers and a bunch more sour grapes drivel. Their game thread is hilarious.
-
Reds pretty much had to take this series. It's not mathematically over, but they really have a tough hill to climb now.

Wong is a really good baseball player. He plays great defense. He's the best defensive second baseman in the league. He passes the eye test and the stats tell us the same thing. He's an excellent, very aware base runner. I mean, the dude tagged up and scored from third on a pop up to the first baseman. He doesn't get thrown out going for extra bases that he didn't have a chance at. He hits for a little bit of pop. He draws walks. He puts the ball in play. He does all the little things that make a good ball player a really good ball player. It's easy to look at his stat line and see that he's a 270 hitter with not very much power and dismiss him as a guy who won't provide much offense, but watching him play a full season, it's really easy to see that he is a guy who produces a lot of results with good baseball acumen and IQ.
-
My bad y'all. I said game six of the finals trumped everything, but I literally ended my post by saying "imo".
-
Lots of takes in this thread aged poorly. Hiura and Yelich were going to return to form, Hiura would "definitely" get traded. No way Hiura would get sent down to the minors. Along with multiple takes about Wong's poor offense. Hindsight makes picking things apart pretty easy.
-
It’s kind of funny, the Cardinals have been such a good franchise over the years that even in a season where they probably will win 85 games it will be considered a down year. That’s next level expectations for you. May 29th they were 30 - 22 and 1/2 game up in first place. They proceeded to go 6-18 over their next 24 games after Flaherty went down and pretty much wreck their season as the Brewers and Reds turned things around. As others have said in other threads, the Redbirds fans don't accept tanking/rebuilds, so they were pretty much stuck between a rock and a hard place between selling off some older vet pieces in a lost season and "going for it" when that wasn't really a prime option..... so here they are, 13 games back. They've got Yadi back in his age 40 season at 10 mil next year though, so they'll be fine.
-
*shrug*???!!?? I think because they liked Tommy Edmand……who was much cheaper as well. meanwhile they're giving 10 million dollar extensions to a 40 year old catcher. I'm not arguing that Edman isn't a decent player, and cheap, at that, but Wong is very, very consistently 3 WAR per 150 games, and at his reasonable price, I'd think a team with their resources would find a way to keep Wong, and play Edman somewhere.
