If this is how you feel you won't feel any better if they win so my advice to you is to just stop watching now and smugly come back with some toldyasos if the Cubs lose in the playoffs

Them fancy scientists ain't never stepped in the box, they don't know what they talkin' bout!" As well as Verlander then saying something along the lines of "Yeah the ball doesn't rise. That's impossible. "

Whoa when did Matt Garza start playing outfield? Kershaw's DL stint extended after blowing out his b-hole. xbilkis posted:Heyward is benched for the weekend. Looks like Joe is going with the ol' "soft reboot" strategy Yeah, when playing in home run city, it probably helps to not have the dude who exclusively hits the ball directly into the ground in the lineup. These are the terrible quips I have tonight. Eat 'em up, folks.

Nail Rat posted:Is it BFIB mode to say he's really bad this year and I wish they wouldn't play him? Because most of the bench guys are better (at batting anyhow). Yeah, we don't have much on the farm in terms of pitching. We will only have Hendricks and Lester under contract after 2017. Theo's either going to have to trade for or sign a boatload of pitching if we're going to stay competitive.

The Cubs traded way too much for a domestic abusing pitcher who was perhaps the best reliever in the game. Now the rest of our bullpen is dead and that lovely rear end in a top hat is a bad pitcher on top of being a stupid rear end in a top hat. Just sign Papelbon already so I can spend the next two months in a drunken, frothing rage.

shadok posted:It's on Netflix, and it's excellent. Really well done documentary. That documentary, along with anything else about Gibby, is proof that I'm a giant hypocrite. If anyone else had played the way he did I'd hate them for being a headhunting rear end in a top hat. Instead I gaze lovingly at his jersey on the wall of my gym. For all the Cardinals have had lovable Hall of Famers in Stan, Lou, Ozzie and Albert their only CY winners have been some mean bastards.

If Carlos Gomez remembers how to play baseball and is good on the Rangers, I will be so mad. However, if he continues his .594 OPS/31% K-rate pace and grinds their offense to halt, I will be happy.

Nail Rat posted:Also next year could be pretty bad if they don't replace Fowler's offense somehow, replacing Fowler with Almora doesn't give me a lot of confidence. They lost a lot of games this year whenever Fowler was out. What's the over/under on re-signing Fowler? Goodpancakes posted:yeah so what happens when the cubs get bounced from the post season with the bases loaded, down by one with Jason up to bat. You pinch hit for him. Tommy loving La Stella. So this season alone, this has been done by the Cubs (last night) and to them (I think it was one of the D-backs games.) DeepDickPizza posted:The Cubs traded way too much for a domestic abusing pitcher who was perhaps the best reliever in the game. Now the rest of our bullpen is dead and that lovely rear end in a top hat is a bad pitcher on top of being a stupid rear end in a top hat. Just sign Papelbon already so I can spend the next two months in a drunken, frothing rage. Yeah but we didn't trade away good pitchers for Chapman. We got rid of Warren, who was meh, and an infielder and two outfielders. The fact that the bullpen is suddenly poo poo now wouldn't have been changed by not trading away a bad pitcher or 3 position players we don't need/can't use. In fact, we'd be worse off without Chapman, because he's been more reliable than the other relievers (just imagine not having Rondon, Strop, Lackey, Wood, Carl Jr. and then Chapman on top of that.) His velocity was down last night, I heard maybe due to altitude? Luckily we don't have to worry about playing a WS in Colorado. The two new guys (Zczsczczzzz z & Peņa) looked promising though. Peņa looked like a young, reliable Carl Jr.
