  1. 2020 closer, right there, I gotta think. Nice easy cheese and has guys in defense mode right away.
  2. I'd like this to become a game where we see Nottingham, Freitas and Shaw all get ABs, and Burnes finishes the game off. How much of a lead might that take, though?
  3. On a morning after this crappy news, I'm taking whatever optimism I can get from the fact that whenever this team gets ripped in an IGT for its "Sunday Lineups" or "AAAA, at best starting 9", they more often (to my eye) seem to win. We're one back of the 2nd WC, and 5 back of the Cards, who we play 3 against this weekend. It wasn't over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor, and, until we are mathematically eliminated, we still have a slugger's chance. The Royals won it all without superstars - hell, we have some of those non-superstars now! In a 5 or 7 game series with off days, I can see a scenario where some combo of Hader, Black, Pomeranz, Suter and Claudio gets it done, like KC did. We were never, according to some after spring training, gonna compete this year. The fact that with 18 or so to go all options are available is pretty satisfying, to me. An injury like this can galvanize or demoralize. The fact the team knew about Yelich from the 4th inning last night and still won, gives me hope. "Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things. And no good thing ever dies..." Andy Dufresne!
  4. Every time Augie says "breakkaball" I take a shot. So long, it's been a blast knowing you guys!
  5. Every AB with men on for Shaw feels like "is this the breakout", and then...
  6. Bill Hall's color commentary is kinda blah, to me. Still better than the yahoo on Cubs broadcasts, however!
  7. Lester takes a pounding, and Russell wears one in his smug face. Today was a good day, Hobbes, ol' buddy. Now, let's get the W.
  8. Keep it up, peeps, with the "these AAAA guys are an embarrassing lineup". Because, baseball, etc.
  9. Was that the kid from Up in the stands? Go Crew! Good game, let's keep it going!
  10. Grandal seems to grouse about more good strikeout pitches than most!
  11. At which point the screams of "left him in X batters too long again", start to rain down. Every. Time. Some people will second guess no matter what happens. But I said before the inning that I would give Davies two baserunners in the sixth. And I guarantee I would not be saying “left him in too long” if he had put the first two hitters in base. And I've been here long enough to say there would 100% be posters making that comment.
  12. At which point the screams of "left him in X batters too long again", start to rain down. Every. Time.
  13. Now you are just making things up. I don't know what the record for longest number of feet a runner is thrown out by, but Braun would have smashed it had he gone for home.
  14. Usain Bolt wouldn't have scored on that hit. It was hit too hard and hit right at the LF just not possible to score on that hit. I swear some posters here LOOK for crap to complain about.
  15. Hasn't been mentioned, I don't think, but Plesac's been HUGELY better than he was earlier in the season, when he was making me cringe with every comment!
