Helton in 2000, Walker in 1999. Neither won MVP. Yes, who was the last one non-Bonds and non-Coors? The last non-Bonds, non-Coors NLer was in 1948. The AL had a winner in 1948 as well. In the AL, there have been a bunch of other winners too, who can get them: 1948 1957 1966 1967 1979 1980 2009 2013

Yelich will win the slash triple crown leading the league in BA/OBP/SLG Can you name the last NLer besides Bonds in 2004 and 2002 to do it?

meh, now we have a path to play the Dodgers in a 5 game series instead of 7. I mean this 18-2 stuff had to stop at some point, lets just get swept now and then regroup and go off on another streak

No surprise Fatt Albers is garbage
-
Exactly. He had the ball in his glove, so how can you expect him to step aside in that instance. He had the ball and applied the tag. If the catcher is expected to move out of the way, and risk missing the tag, the rule is even dumber than I thought. If the throw forces the catcher into the base path it is the defenses fault and it should be called. Make the fielders throw the ball to the proper place. Otherwise the rule is dumber than i thought. What should be called? "Obstruction describes an act by a fielder, who is not in possession of the ball or in the process of fielding it, that impedes the baserunner's progress." The catcher had the ball before contact happened
-
As far as I can tell, it is not possible to commit obstruction if you have the ball. Cain did not touch the catcher until he had the ball, so obstruction cannot be one of the possible calls on that play.
-
Ok, you cannot commit obstruction if you have the ball, and catcher had the ball before Cain got there, even if only by a millisecond, so what is the complaint there?
-
Now Cain is injured because he is not allowed the natural play of crashing into the catcher, hmmm
-
Did I log in as you and post this? Because same story over here. It is actually why I stopped coming as much earlier in the year because I felt like I was just talking to myself and most people were only posting about major events in the game and not just random minor crap
-
I treat the in game thread like I am watching the game with my friends in my living room, so following several games that are important would be a common topic of conversation. The point of the update is not really to provide the information, just like we are all watching the game so we don't need a bunch of people to post that Cain made a great catch..we all saw it
-
You would pay $51,000,000 for that catch?
-
Cubs get both runs back right away, 8-5
-
Why wouldn't he? Those were terrible calls and still should have been both called a ball. Seconded. Shaw did nothing wrong there. Hosed twice. Ok, just based on that AB and that AB alone, yes Shaw was screwed and he should complain. However, in the big picture, Shaw is hitting .157 and Ks on 33% of his 269 PAs this season, so he really shouldn't complain about anything
-
Why wouldn't he? Those were terrible calls and still should have been both called a ball. My point is it doesn't even matter because he will strikeout anyways. He has been so horrendous all year he doesn't really deserve to complain
