For the record Jennings has pretty good splits. Actually pitches well overall against lefties. But man does he blow it in big spots a lot. The worst is when Counsell goes to him for a lefty, he fails, and then a bunch of righties mash him. Hate it.
It's a real shame that liveforoctober guy gave up on the team an hour ago after being a fan since the Cal Eldred days. Him and TPlush stopped watching in the 3rd inning.. Haha, BLUFFS! You guys know you can't look away! It’s not on my TV, fact.
Get your hopes up at your peril... Oh trust me I know. I was at that insane game where they tied it on passes balls and wild pitches...then blew it quickly.
If they can find a way to win this nightmare man would that be big at the end of the year. -Phillies blew their lead -Rockies on brink of losing -Cubs lost -Cards down early
If it comes down to a few games he definitely flopped pretty hard midseason. Now is that good or bad? Well, maybe it is good because we didn’t mortgage too much of the future.
Disability insurance likely covers a good chunk of his contract. However he would have to be physically unable to perform and basically all avenues exhausted. A doctor pretty much has to tell you to stop for your health. Fielder is the only one in recent memory I can think of. I am guessing it is very common on large contracts and probably doesn’t cost as much as you would think. It’s very rare, but is astronomical risk.
This games is like when a little kid wins a gold fish at the carnival. You are so happy for a day, it dies, and then you are crying as it circles the toilet.
It needs a documentary...for the rain delays. Even after all that they are only down 2 I don’t know if that makes me feel better or worse about it. We gave up a nice multi run lead and turned it into a multi run deficit. Yikes. How many of Guerra’s runs are even earned?
Yup, done wasting TV space with this. Won’t have to worry about Pizza Ranch and Gruber for quite a while. Just flat out hard to enjoy watching this team. Even when they win games it’s hardly an enjoyable experience.
