QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 7, 2016 -> 09:12 PM) How does Posey not score? He's Paul Konerko slow. He also didn't realize it was 2 outs. Doh.

Does Lester realize that these pitches aren't strikes? lol

Giants had 0 players hit over 20 homers this year. How in the world do they score runs?

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 7, 2016 -> 09:07 PM) I don't understand the balk rule but it definitely seems like he should be called for one a lot. He does it when he's pitching out of the windup, so I don't think that applies.

f***ing David Ross? How is he hitting better than he ever has in his career?

It's pretty funny how Cueto f***s around out there with crazy qwerks in his delivery.

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 7, 2016 -> 08:53 PM) How do teams not know to expect the pickoff by now Especially when they put Baez at first. Baez is known to be one of the best taggers in baseball.

2010 - former White Sox Aaron Rowand and Juan Uribe help Giants win World Series. 2012 - former White Sox Juan Uribe helps Giants win World Series. 2014 - former White Sox Jake Peavy helps Giants win World Series. 2016 - former White Sox Conor Gillaspie helps Giants win World Series?

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Oct 6, 2016 -> 12:21 AM) I can't imagine this is possible with that game 3 matchup of Little Game Jake Arrieta and October Massacre Madison Bumgarner facing off. This series goes at least 4 games, strictly because of Bumgarner.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 5, 2016 -> 11:50 PM) Giants have no chance. It will be a sweep as a matter of fact. San Fran does not have the team. Anemic lineup. Cubs have bruisers. Cubs roll. Sweep. Please Greg. PLEASE BET YOUR HOUSE.

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 5, 2016 -> 10:19 PM) Samardzija at Wrigley vs the Cubs would be something With how poorly he pitched last year for us in big games, I don't want to see it.

QUOTE (shysocks @ Oct 5, 2016 -> 10:37 PM) He also said he very rarely feels overmatched by a pitcher. Classic Gillaspie. Good for Conor. I'm happy for him. Now go beat the Cubs!

QUOTE (danman31 @ Oct 3, 2016 -> 02:16 AM) It's different in some ways, not different in important ways. They totally reworked corners and penalties and adjusted free kicks. I like the new corners, hate the new penalties. Some of the same issues crop up though. Stupid teammates and controls that seem to fight you. Having more trouble than usual getting players to pass to the correct player. Sometimes the direction is off by 45 degrees from what I was aiming. It's infuriating at times. The Journey is surprisingly cool though. Passing works way better than 16 IMO. I can actually pass in the box now instead of the ball getting intercepted or going completely to the wrong player. There's still times where I'll want to pass it to one player and it'll go to another. Sometimes that's my fault, but other times, it seems like the game's screwing me.

lol the guy who a lot of people say should win the Cy Young doesn't even pitch in his team's most important game of the year. I get what Showalter was going for, but you absolutely cannot let Ubaldo face Encarnacion with the winning run on third. Britton's got one of the best sinkers in baseball. Use him there to try and induce a double play ball at least.

Wow the Tigers offense took a total dump the last two games.

Loving all the games being at the same time. So many games with playoff implications.

Cano being unable to at least move the runner over really screwed the Mariners.

Game over. Unlucky.

What could have been a game-tying single up the middle hits off Madson and goes right to the 1B for an out.

Mariners rally with 2 outs to tie it. I have no idea who some of the guys who just got hits are. Cano up. This is a great game.

Cishek just gave up a 2 run RBI double with 2 outs in the 8th. Not good.

QUOTE (flavum @ Oct 1, 2016 -> 08:55 PM) I hope four teams end up 88-74. Give me chaos. Tigers could have to win in four cities in four days starting tomorrow in order to play in a 5th city on Thursday. That would be insane and I'd love to see it happen.

QUOTE (GreatScott82 @ Oct 1, 2016 -> 07:54 PM) There are rumors out there stating Kenny Williams will finally step down from his post on Monday. Can this actually be true? This needs to happen. Thanks for 2005 Kenny, but his way of running the org just does not work anymore.

My preference for WC teams in the AL 1. Toronto 2. Seattle 3. Baltimore 4. Detroit

lol Tigers losing to the Braves. Seattle has the chance to leapfrog Detroit and Toronto.
