    They've been playing well lately too, so it makes sense.

    Cardinals-Cubs series would be epic. Need one of the Rockies/Dbacks to stumble and of course the Cardinals would need to win the pretend playoff game and even then I can't remember if teams from the same division can play in round 1.

    They can play each other in the first round now.

    I don't know what Swanson did to piss off the BABIP gods but this is ridiculous.

    He's cursed in '17. If there are actual baseball gods, Swanson should be blessed with a Chris Johnson .390 BABIP next season

    No, God, please no. Because then we would have to be reminded of it every single time he got a hit.

    I've seen enough of Sims to last a lifetime. Let's try Fried.

    Sims is horrendous.

    I can't imagine thinking he was good enough to draft 1st round. Just maddening.

    Anyone have era for pitchers with Suzuki catching vs flowers? Without actually looking at stats, seems all our pitchers get hit harder with Suzuki catching

    No one believed me. I gave a report on him and no one believed me. He is what he is...unfortunately.

    Well, in yesterday's case, Folty is actually.....usually quite a bit better with Suzuki over Flowers.

    I said the same thing after his first start gave us some statcast data.

    He simply doesn't have very good stuff, and it really offended some around here to hear it.

    I haven't given up on Sims or anything, but I'm hoping to see Fried starting soon.

    Now we get to hear the broadcast braintrust explain how disappointing Martinez is because he is only 8-9.

    Never mind he is on pace to post 3.5 WAR which would almost equal the total from all the Braves SPs combined.
