Why not. We need a distraction around here. Let me give it a try for 37 and beyond. This should do it.
The team is pathetic. Overturn the whole thing besides Robert. I might also give Cease a chance at redemption. Most in fundamentally sound team in the majors.
For some reason Hahn hitched his wagon to Yoan. Guess no one would take that dog at his salary. Burger can only play 3B and he is adequate at best.
Keep TA into next year and then trade. Hopefully his value will go back up. He still has highest BA of any MLB over past four seasons. Flip Beni whenever you can get some value there.
Yup - let’s celebrate their efforts to get a wild card and early exit this year.
We are talking about two bad clubs. I concede to Corbi that the White Sox are much worse, but at least we didn’t have Adolis Chapman on the team when the WS got their last championship.
Tim Anderson is a loser. Always has been. You can’t win with selfish guys like that. Take a look at what he did against the Cubs while sliding into 2nd base just a few days back. Way worse than what Ramirez did to him but Hoerner said nothing.
C'mon, Corbi, show some baseball knowledge. Anderson is an ass, but that comparison is stupid. What's the difference between those two plays? What's the job of the person receiving the ball in those two different situations? What is the person sliding trying to do?
Anderson can GTFO, I don't care, but he didn't do a single thing wrong to either Ramirez when he got KO'd or Hoerner on that slide. Using that clip with his slide on Hoerner is hilariously laughable
Only bright spot for my baseball season was the cubs finish.
Bad decision by Harper on the base paths. He must have thought he really needed to stretch it to score if that ball had dropped.
With all due respect, people in Houston may be the only ones in America rooting for the Astros to win AGAIN this year. Really hoping the Twins and Phillies figure out a way. That would be a fun World Series.
To be fair, if the CF doesn't get an incredible jump on the ball, or it's hit an inch farther, it carroms off the wall and Harper scores the tying run from 1st base. The Phils blew that game much earlier when they left runners on base all night long, but they have two games at home in front of a rabid crowd and are still in good shape.
Dusty Wathan is probably not particularly popular in Philly right now. Those are two really, really good teams. ATL was just sleepwalking (not really — the pitching was spectacular) before that seemingly accidental first run coming from the Turner error.
Well, sorry my friend. Astros to the ALCS for the seventh straight season. It's likely that few people outside of Texas will care, but the series with the Rangers should be a good one.
The trashcan banging was six years ago. Only three players from that team are still on the roster now. Cheating jokes are as flat as Bob Costas on the play-by-play.
It’s a shame that the series couldn’t have been played in the Metrodome. It would have been interesting to see the trashcan bangers compete with the legendary Homerdome Air Conditioning.
And if only the Astros' stadium were still called Enron Field, it would be the perfect place for that team of fraudsters!
He whacked it to the warning track. It's a game of inches. Congrats to the Phillies. The top five teams by number of regular season wins are now gone. Time for the underdogs to play for the championship. ⚾😈
The Phillies are just smart enough to understand that the postseason matters more than getting a few extra wins against the Nationals. At least the Cobb County Braves have all those Division pennants to hang in their stadium.
It’s all luck, and sterling pitching from Ranger Suarez and a weeklong layoff from playing competitive games.
Yeah... I'm really torn on this. On the one hand, I thoroughly enjoyed seeing the Braves get knocked out. On the other hand, it kind of sucks to see a team that was so clearly the class of the regular season (and finished 13 games ahead of the Phillies in the standings) get knocked out in a best of 5 series. Why go through all those grueling summer months??
