Why would Maddon go to a pinch hitter with 2 outs and no one on, and a depleted bullpen??

Wow, not sure if Pete Rose is right, but he just said that the Cubs have hit .190 as a team this year versus sliders and curveballs. If true, Giants need to exploit the living hell out of that.

Anyone else think that if Almora ran to the spot the ball landed, he catches it and we are talking runner on 3rd with 1 out? That ball only hit 6 or 7 feet up the wall.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 01:34 AM) Ross would have been safe if he took a bigger step. Yep. His old choppy steps cost him.

Oh god, here comes a David Ross game-winning RBI....his stupid f***ing legend will only grow.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 01:16 AM) I seriously thought they were gonna overturn that one. They did.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Oct 11, 2016 -> 01:09 AM) Who does a dragged out game favor right now? Probably the Giants because I feel like they probably got 1 or 2 guys left in their pen, right? Giants should have a couple position players left too. Cubs only have Ross.

Rizzo is now a career .133 playoff hitter. 0 for 13 this year.

Denard needs to flare one in to the OF here. Just a soft liner, please.

Was nice but I was shocked how tight the back seat was. Car seat was hitting the front seat. I have a friend who works for a dealership and he says they HATE when Costco members come in because they often end up making nothing or losing money on cars, and whatever price Costco says HAS to be honored or they breach contract and get in trouble.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Oct 10, 2016 -> 04:31 PM) Anybody watch Superstore? I watched the first three episodes last year when they came out and I thought it was funny, went back and watched the rest of the episodes and I think it is one of the funniest shows right now I've seen 2 episodes and have wanted to watch more but always forget to.

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Oct 10, 2016 -> 10:01 PM) Ross is going to be an analyst or coach somewhere. Not until after his HOF induction and his number is retired at Wrigley. But seriously, the amount of love he is getting for his "retirement" is annoying and completely unwarranted. The dude is a career .229 hitter and 15 WAR catcher over 15 years.

Here is a real, pretty cool interview with Simpson about Westworld. They actually talk a bit about his role on Always Sunny.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Oct 10, 2016 -> 09:43 AM) Simpson gave one of the worst interviews ever a long time ago when he first started on Sunny, it was disappointing because I loved him in the show but man it was weird, egotistical, and off-putting. Kind of shaded how I view him. They disabled embedding but found it: At first I thought you were serious, then I immediately realized that was a joke interview obviously.

QUOTE (Joshua Strong @ Oct 8, 2016 -> 10:07 PM) WestWorld is amazing. I love how Dolores reacts to the fly, you can see it in her eyes and her face when the fly lands on her. The Man in Black is an amazing character, I think he was the original guest at the park. You mean from the movie? That would be cool. Not to get in to details of episode 2 yet, but I really do enjoy Jimmie Simpson. He was really good in Breakout Kings and always reminds me of a young James Spader.

Not even Tom Brady's 28 points or Elliot's 30 points could save my sorry ass WR this week. Fuller got me 0, Enunwa got 5. I will end up with possibly the 2nd most points scored this week, but had to play a guy who got 30 pts from David Johnson, 22 from Jordan Howard, and 23 from Vinatieri.

Cubs have committed 4 errors in 2 games, none of them have led to runs. The series is 2-0 Cubs, but it could very easily be 2-0 Giants. Not saying they won't still win the series, but it's not like they've dominated.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Oct 8, 2016 -> 07:26 PM) About five hours into Mafia 3 and I'm really enjoying it so far. The story and characters are amazing, amongst the best I've ever seen in a video game. The setting/atmosphere is incredible. You really feel like you're in 1960's New Orleans. The gameplay is very solid for an open-world GTA type game. Nothing revolutionary here, but no significant flaws either. There's a chance the mission structure will start to get repetitive at some point, but right now I'm enjoying it a ton. If you're a fan of story driven games, then I highly recommend it. Only reason I haven't bought it yet is because every review I had seen from fans or small publications have been disappointed, saying it gets really repetitive, and that the AI is atrocious. Waiting for IGN or some major source to review it and give more detailed reply. Anything around a 7/10 or better and I'll get it.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Oct 6, 2016 -> 12:09 PM) Got Cubs fans saying they'll sweep. October isn't promised unles's you're Bumgarner. I only talked to a couple Cubs fans at work today, and they were both really nervous about facing the Giants. Their cockiness seemed to have been tied to playing the Mets, but the Giants seem to scare them.

Just watched a Twitch stream of Mafia 3...and damn, the music is awesome and the initial story set-up was dope. Not sure if it will ever rival the stories of Heavy Rain and Far Cry 3, but I think I am going to have to place my order on Amazon the second a positive review comes out.

I'm rooting for Cleveland in this series. I want the Boston starters to get s*** on and force them to give in for whatever we demand of Sale/Q this offseason.

Man, I can't wait for Benintendi to be our starting CF next season. Just scares me of how much he is going to "hurt" our package we receive with him for Quintana. Over the summer, I was thinking Benintendi, Devers, Kopech, and someone else I think for Quintana. Now, just Benintendi and Kopech may be the price.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Oct 6, 2016 -> 12:49 PM) Hawks on the verge of acquiring Nail Yakupov from the Oilers. Supposedly no roster players from the Hawks end are involved and money retained from EDM part is likely. Love it. Just rumors and nothing appears imminent. Probs won't know until next week is my guess.

I tried for a while to get David Johnson, the guy kept saying no, and now he rattles off 30 points against me this week. Ugh. I've also been trying to trade Matthew Stafford + for Larry Fitzgerald, that hasn't happened yet, and then go goes and drops 20 tonight. At least those were 2 different owners I guess.
