Things were looking pretty damn gloomy through the first few. This is probably what it felt like for people in NYC when the city was preemptively shut down ahead of the blizzard in January that ended up unleashing the wrath of 2" - 6" accumulation by the time it was over.

QUOTE (shysocks @ May 5, 2015 -> 07:41 AM) It all burned down when we played the Orioles... hire Ozzie and a hooker. Did I get that right? It should be a robin, otherwise, the google has let me down. This is a helpful resource.

Kill them softly with your walks.

His 2008 was one of the most exciting individual performances I can remember. I have fond memories of taking a few Cub fans to their first game at the Cell and watching him personally hand John Lackey an L. After the 2007 s***-show, it was just what the fan-base needed. Good luck to him, bummer that it ends like this.

It's far too early to conclude anything, but with one "month" down, it's really damn hard to watch the "baseball" this team plays.

sucks

Nothing against Rongey, and glad for him that he gets to put some PBP on his resume, but it feels like Farmio has been gone for much longer than the handful of games it really is. Hope he's back soon.

Damn it to hell.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Apr 28, 2015 -> 05:51 PM) As far as bad crippling pitcher contracts go, Danks is far from the worst. Just tossing that out there. Truth

QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 28, 2015 -> 09:54 AM) All they had to do yesterday is say "We're not playing this series in Baltimore this week. There will be a doubleheader in Washington DC on Wednesday (which gives them almost 48 hours to get ready), and the third game will be made up in Chicago on July 3, with Game 1 having the Orioles as the home team." That would have been sensible. I think the O's forfeiting ought to be in the discussion if they can't come to a sensible solution by the time the series is scheduled to end. Any make-up games the Sox already have on their plate should be considered in this solution. Flying around the country on off days to play doubleheaders is s***.

Any word on why Farmer is MIA on the call?

Hating on the decision to bring the closer in on a tie.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 02:53 PM) seriously ANOTHER AL CENTRAL TEAM? My god man I hate the unbalanced schedule but this is ridiculous. Entire month against AL Central and if it was to be broken up it probably would have been with interleague. Man I miss the old days sometimes. Yeah, I hate this year-round interleague. And the extra wild-card.

Very nice Gillaspie.

rodon ridsin to the game

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 20, 2015 -> 05:04 PM) Always a great segment with their Big Doug parody songs And with Staś.

I might be able to do without the shearing time off the end of life approach to winning.

Wow, that sucks. I remember being in a hurry to get somewhere and I had the Score on in the car- he was doing his Big Doug bit on Mully & Hanley (555-5555). I ended up making it in time but staying until his segment was done. RIP

lordy

Hearing things on a postgame show to the tune of "Fire Q if they don't win the cup this year" after splitting the first two road games in the first round of the playoffs- is this a normal thing?

I don't have a problem with Gillaspie + Beckham backing him up if need be. I'd like to see Flowers cede more time to Soto (I think that will take care of itself sooner rather than later).
