  1. Picture it this way: After decades of the Cards winning World Series after World Series and the Cubs being a laughing stock, how would Cubbies fans feel if the Cards start sucking s*** for a while? Wouldn't Cubs fans be able to be more dismissive of Cardinals fan swagger and the belief that STL is the best baseball town? Wouldn't Cubs be more empowered to look down on Cards fans after being s*** on by them for decades and decades? Now picture that x 10 since Sox and Yankees fans commingle on a daily basis.
  2. When a guy was on and off the dl last year with elbow issues, I'm not surprised if they start having numbness in their fingers the next year. He's going to have a long DL stint again this year most likely. I don't think the weather was the issue. I think the health of his arm was the issue.
  3. @ByChrisMason Kimbrel: “Analytics are great but you still can’t measure what it takes to get those last three outs of the game.” Extend Kimbrel NOW!
  4. Yup and got fined for it. Xander too.
  5. And if JBJ is still OPS'ing below 600 next month, we'll probably see people thinking he needs to be gone. The only problem is that RIGHT NOW, nobody is clamoring for him to get out of here. I think people last year were stating that they should have traded him after his big 2016 season when his stock was never higher. His stock wasn't exactly very high this past offseason.
  6. I think he sees the team playing well and is feeling left out. Maybe even bored now that he isn't stealing signs with his apple watch. Poor guy.
  7. Bradley has started the season swinging at more pitching in the zone and fewer pitches out of the zone. There are a lot of other good indications for JBJ, but it's still early.
  8. Yup. I think Cora is giving Walden enough chances in low stress situations to see if he can stick with the big club. It doesn't look like he can.
  9. If he can get that K% under 20, I'll be very happy. I think his production last year is probably his floor. If he can at least maintain that, he's good with me.
  10. If you're going to trade JBJ, you do it in the offseason. Right now, he is what he is. I'm just waiting for his annual 30 day stretch of awesomeness.
  11. I think he only did that because of the no hitter. I was surprised that he was back out there too.
  12. My thoughts exactly. Hard to have a rivalry against a below .500 bush league team like that.
  13. Hanley is looking better at 1b this year than he did at any point in 2016.
  14. You said that if he didn't hit, that he'd still be a valuable player. It's just not true. He needs to hit a little.
  15. Extend Kimbrel NOW!
  16. Not really impressed with Walden.
  17. Walden is missing badly.
  18. Boone is a baby bitch
  19. Real talk. An injury is an injury. I don’t think it makes him weak. He’s a good pitcher. People just don’t like his contract.
  20. 1. Both actions were dumb. 2. If MLB gets rid of takeout slides, hitting opposing batters would be less likely. 3. Yankees fans can be just as dumb as Sox fans.
  21. @EvanDrellich Discipline/suspensions for Red Sox Yankees may come later today, source says. Suspensions are in effect the day they are handed down, but everyone can appeal and therefore stay the suspension. So tonight's game probably unaffected
  22. @ScottLauber David Price threw aggressively in the outfield. He “feels good,” according to #RedSox manager Alex Cora, and there’s a chance he could make his scheduled start Monday, weather-permitting.
