  1. Wow. Familia's last couple of blown saves have been incredibly unlucky. Terrible defense behind him.
  2. So Mike Riley has to get fired after only 1 year at Nebraska right?
  3. I hope we can stop discussing Cubit getting the Illinois job full time now.
  4. Seth Russell is out for the season for Baylor. That sucks.
  5. Price is getting lit up. He is lucky to have only given up 2 runs so far.
  6. QUOTE (The Critic @ Oct 23, 2015 -> 04:05 AM) Arrieta's season reminded me a lot of Esteban Loaiza's 2003 season for the Sox. Jake will make a lot more money than Loaiza did after his 21-win year, though. The difference is that Arrieta was also a complete stud in 2014 as well whereas Loaiza had never come anywhere close to his 2003 numbers in his career before that season.
  7. QUOTE (Middle Buffalo @ Oct 22, 2015 -> 12:22 AM) July 31, the Mets were 53-50. They added Cespedes and took off. Toronto was 53-51. They added Price & Tulo. Texas was 50-52. They added Hamels. The Sox were 49-52. They did not add, but it's not inconceivable that Sale would remain dominant, Q would run into some luck and get some wins, and Shark would have a strong second half. If LaRoche, Melky and a few others play to their lifetime averages (which means getting hot for a few months), the Sox aren't as far out of it as they ended up. Going forward, you have to hope Rodon continues to improve, and maybe Fulmer shows up and is as good as 2015 Rodon. That would put the Sox staff on par with the Mets. If they can add a few dynamic bats, who knows, maybe the Sox make a run next year. Baseball, like football and hockey, seems to be about getting hot toward the end of the season and making a playoff run. The Blue Jays were one of the best teams in baseball even before those moves the results just hadn't caught up to how they were actually playing on the field which happens sometimes in baseball. I do think those trades helped ignite the team on a hot streak though but Toronto even before those moves was significantly more talented than the White Sox. While people like to bring up the Mets adding Cespedes as the reason for the turnaround they really essentially turned over half their lineup at the deadline or around the deadline as they also got Wright back from injury in August, d'Arnaud finally got healthy at that time and they brought up Conforto.
  8. So do the Cubs take down Schwarber's stupid NLDS home run ball from the scoreboard now that they didn't win the World Series this year?
  9. QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 21, 2015 -> 10:17 PM) They're going to have 2-3 days off at least, so you might as well. Gotta have your closer on the mound in the series clinching game. World Series doesn't start until Tuesday so they will have 5 days off if they clinch tonight.
  10. Tyler Clippard is trash. I'd pull him right now (of course I never would have brought him in).
  11. This has to be the most unlikely HR streak in MLB history. Daniel f***ing Murphy
  12. Schwarber makes Avi look like Jason Heyward.
  13. Schwarber is not a major league outfielder. Cubs need to hope he can make it as a catcher or that the NL adds the DH.
  14. Clippard is terrifying out there. Nothing on his pitches.
  15. Travis Wood is totally 2005 Neal Cotts. Garbage pitcher who people can't make contact off of for some reason this year.
  16. Why the f*** is deGrom swinging 2-0 there and he swung at ball 3.
  17. What a joke of a f***ing field. That is f***ing ridiculous.
  18. Lol. Such a bad at bat but works out for the Mets.
  19. Hendricks is meat. I really don't understand how he doesn't consistently get hit hard.
  20. QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Oct 20, 2015 -> 12:19 PM) The best part about the trailer is we still have no real idea what the plot is, and we haven't even seen the most iconic character from the series shown on screen. That's what a trailer should be. Yep. It does a great job keeping the plot under wraps but showing you the incredible visuals (without hopefully ruining the best set pieces) and introducing most of the main characters. Great trailer.
