No one can deny that.Wobbie said:joe maddon is a jackass.
I can see it. He was stone faced as hell and that could be construed as sort of indifferent arrogance and despite that a bit of a dopey look to him.darwinstheory said:
Hated Greg Maddux?!?! Said no reasonable person EVER. Greg Maddux was the Tom Hanks of baseball in the 90's. Hating the Braves of the 90's is fine if you want, but Mad Dog? Seems like an attention grabbing statement to me.Wobbie said:HesCalledDyer said:
Yesterday was the anniversary of when he 76-pitch shutout the CubsWobbie said:60 year old greg maddux?
hated that guy but he was the epitome of “economical.” only good part of being at his 300th win was selling my ticket stubs on ebay.
EDIT: now I feel weird having put so much thought into Greg Maddux’s face.Post edited by DewieCox on0 -

Hendricks through 4 with 0 runs allowed. I'm betting Dyer had to delete a pre typed and not yet submitted fuck laced paragraph on fucking Hendricks and his band of pathetic fucking losers. "A smart monkey doesn't monkey around with another monkey's monkey" - Darwin's Theory0

How did the cubs let Zach Britton go to the Yankees? We desperately need a reliever and we were rumored to be the front runner for him just recently. Is Theo sleeping on the job this year?0

Britton isn't terrible enough. We'll sign some no-name with a career ERA in the 4-5 range and Jed &Theo will make us drink the "potential" kool-aid.

We were supposedly one of the front runners for Machado, too. Until we weren't.

It’s pretty frustrating that they haven’t made a move thus far. We need pitching help or we’re going nowhere as the season goes on. I hope we’re not the only ones that realize that.0

I think they are aiming at SP over RP myself."A smart monkey doesn't monkey around with another monkey's monkey" - Darwin's Theory0

They should. DeGrom would be a huge addition but they seem to be inactive on the trade front at the moment.0

I agree...but I could see it being someone like Gaussman from Baltimore, unfortunately."A smart monkey doesn't monkey around with another monkey's monkey" - Darwin's Theory0

Another day of anemic offense making a guy with a 5+ ERA look like a fucking Cy Young contender.These fucking bums will be in 3rd place within the next 10 days. It serves them right. At this point I honestly hope we miss the playoffs this year. Maybe THEN they'll all get their heads out of their fucking asses and start playing with some god damn desire.Star Lake 00 / Pittsburgh 03 / State College 03 / Bristow 03 / Cleveland 06 / Camden II 06 / DC 08 / Pittsburgh 13 / Baltimore 13 / Charlottesville 13 / Cincinnati 14 / St. Paul 14 / Hampton 16 / Wrigley I 16 / Wrigley II 16 / Baltimore 20 / Camden 22 / Baltimore 24 / Raleigh I 25 / Raleigh II 25 / Pittsburgh I 250

Today's win was a nice gift. Still up 2.5. Still tied for the 4th best in the national league, in terms of runs against.
If pitching starts matching potential, then we'll be fine, but it's not WS champ caliber. We'd need a lot to go right in the playoffs.2000 - 8/21 - Columbus, OH

^ Yeah, the “you score 8, we’ll score 9” mentality in the playoffs won’t work. Pitching trumps hitting every time.0

Exactly. This just doesn't feel like a team that can win a playoff series. I believe we'll get there. Might even steal a game. But I don't think this team, as it is right now, can win an NLDS. Too many question marks.bbiggs said:^ Yeah, the “you score 8, we’ll score 9” mentality in the playoffs won’t work. Pitching trumps hitting every time.2000 - 8/21 - Columbus, OH
