The unholy force of Carpenter's salsa has been cast down, Joe learned the ancient secrets of sacrificing a starter's arm on the alter of the mound to do this thing.

I'm too lazy to find what page it's on but imagine I quoted my post about how while 4-5 wins would have been nice to bury the Cardinals forever I can live with taking 3-of-5. Also the Brewers had the decency to lose again so the Cubs are 3 games back on top.

Better keep an eye out for the unstoppable Pirates though, 9 in a row now :eyepop:

I'm kinda surprised they haven't put in Familia yet. Everyone else has to be gassed. Really coming back to bite them.

Edit: Sounds like this is his first day in Oakland, which makes sense.

Upton is the worst defensive left fielder in baseball, he's unbelievably bad and there's a 50/50 chance that he totally fucks up playing any ball hit his way

To be fair, the Astros picked up Rondon off the scrapheap and got the good version of him, who's now if I'm not mistaken their full-time closer.

Don't forget, Bad Rondon is the reason for the Chapman/Torres trade.
