NLCS: Cubs vs. Dodgers
QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 18, 2017 -> 12:01 AM) Not with this bullpen, they could wear basketball jersey Speedo pajamas on their next flight and these guys would still suck. That Justin Wilson trade was an epic fail, Avila came in handy during the Contreras injury, but the division was theirs anyway and Wilson got taken off the roster. Would have behooved them to have tried to go for a Q-Jennings-Swarzak deal over what they did.

Yasmani Grandal
If you rank catchers by OBP with a minimum of .295 PAs, Omar has the fifth highest OBP. Considering he's should really be in AAA based on his timeline and that the White Sox turned Flowers into a stellar pitch framer, I'm ok with rolling with Narvaez and simply hope he learns to frame better.

Realignment/Expansion
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 17, 2017 -> 03:37 PM) Another pretty radical, yet common sense idea for expansion... Add another team to the NYC market. If you divide the entire metro area by just the Mets and Yankees, it is still MUCH bigger than pretty much any other teams solo market place. Dividing that market up again might do more for rebalancing finances in baseball than anything else. Brooklyn is larger than Chicago. Could definitely support a team again.

OBAMA/TRUMPCARE MEGATHREAD
QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Oct 14, 2017 -> 01:44 PM) That simply isnt true. Its not "most" of America. Some people are "better" off, some people are "worse". You can look at this board as an example. There are a few people who have stated that when Obamacare was enacted things got worse for them. Most of the people on this board did not have a similar experience. In the same vein, I am "worse" off now that congress destabilized insurance this year. There may be some people who are "better". But the main issue that we have to decide is: "Does every American deserve good/affordable health insurance." Or do we believe "Health insurance is a luxury of the wealthy." I think health insurance should be for everyone. Yeah, my dad likely won't be able to have health insurance until he turns 65 next November. So my small business owning, cancer-surviving father who works out everyday to stay healthy is going to be hot hard by this.

NLCS: Cubs vs. Dodgers
QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 15, 2017 -> 11:14 AM) You really don't appreciate what you have until it's gone. Seeing Sale in the playoffs did nothing for me, but I get so into these Quintana starts, I root for him so much to pitch awesome, even while rooting against the Cubs. I was at the Hawks game so didn't watch much, but seemed like he was pulled way too early at only 89 pitches? And Rondon has been trash, you knew he would blow it. My Cubs fan buddy is anti Maddon for his in game decisions, he just got lucky last year. I'm so happy for Q proving morons like Kaplan wrong.

NLCS: Cubs vs. Dodgers
QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 14, 2017 -> 11:58 PM) What is it with people calling the call at home plate an "athletic play"? Darling said it. Maddon said it in the postgame interview. The guys on the postgame show are saying it. Are people really that surprised Kyle Schwarber can charge a ball and make a good throw or something? I guess. Maybe they're trying hard to justify whining about it?

The Sexual Assault problem
QUOTE (CrimsonWeltall @ Oct 13, 2017 -> 04:04 PM) You said one of the few things you liked about Trump was his stance on LGBT issues because you're socially liberal. But Trump is horrible on LGBT issues, as he has allied with the Religious Right, and has his administration do their bidding. I mean, this debate doesn't need to go any further than Mike Pence.

Maddon could contest a call three weeks after the game ends and it'd get overturned.

The Sexual Assault problem

The Sexual Assault problem
Lol at this thread Trump has been accused of barging in on underage teens getting dressed, rape, sexual assault, the whole nine yards. But because he liked to the LGBT community and embraces fake news such as Fox with Seth Rich, he's a stand-up guy.
