    Hendricks with a masterpiece tonight, 7 shutout innings. 2-0 Cubs through 7.

    Stras was better but with a worse defense

    Stras was pretty filthy but he had a chance to get out of it and didnt. Hendricks did. That was the difference.

    Damnit, I was looking forward to the Dodgers-Dbacks series and now I have to listen to Joe Simpson.

    The difference was Rendon making that error.

    I thought about it for a bit but I think I'm mostly sitting this one out. It comes on too late, outside of Friday I have other things to do (real life stuff or college football on Saturdays), and I could care less about spending more time listening to a traditionalist.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    Honestly hope whomever wins that series wins it all. Can’t root for anyone in NL except D’Backs and they have a title in the last 20 years. Astros and Indians would be better for baseball.

    i think we have to move out of the NL East, not facing any competition in the regular season makes us soft.


    The Philippines need a new team...

    My favorite:

    “0-2” pitch to Bryant right where he likes it Up and out over?????? WT#???!?!

    You can ABSOLUTELY feel the negativity in the stadium;
    When Murphy hit the line drive for an out in the 1st with Harper at 2nd base - “HERE WE GO AGAIN”!
    When Rendon booted that ball - “HERE WE GO AGAIN”!
    When Strasburg threw an “0-2” pitch up and out over to Bryant where he FN LOVES IT - “HERE WE GO AGAIN”!
    When Baker chose to pitch to Rizzo - “HERE WE GO AGAIN”!

    Let’s look at the bright side guys, Indians / Astros will be one GREAT World Series.

    I will be ecstatic to see Werth leave. I almost want us to lose 3 straight to get him off our club faster - Addition by subtraction. “Oh but he takes so many pitches and hits in favorable counts“. what a bunch of BS! Werth is a scumbag! Bye-bye! :D

    Looks like the Nationals spend more time on working their hair than they do baseball.

    These guys really need to learn to take those inevitable playoff losses with grace and equanimity, like we do. After the 11th or 12th time, it gets easier.

    No, it doesn't. It gets worse.

    That's on Maddon.

    Should have used Montgomery or Davis. Or kept in Lester another inning.

    Yeah, how do you let Harper face a righty that's not Davis?
