What a crappy loss.

 

[Sharp]

The answer is Cliff Lee, BTW. Hopefully you guys weren't not guessing him because it was "too easy" like Windu said. Personally I had not realized he'd been anywhere near that good.

 

[cashman]

Joe Nathan was throwin that sick nasty tonight.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

should have won this one....

 

[Toth]

This is exactly why the Yankees will not win this year and will probably be gone in the first round: they cannot get the job done when it matters. Jeter ties the game and for what?

 

[Dominican Power]

Pathetic. We should be sweeping The Jays.

 

[Dominican Power]

Can we say little prayer for The 2012 Pirates?

 

[NomarTyme]

Time a Dodger's rally!

Kemp killed it.

 

[Doogdogg]

God damn Transformers ads on MLB.tv is annoying.

 

[Sharp]

God damn Transformers ads on MLB.tv is annoying.

Don't you want to get the game now though, on account of how sweet it looks?

 

[Future Foundation]

Goddamn, what a shitty loss. What's the bullpen ERA been this August? The high 4s?

 

[RobotHaus]

Can we say little prayer for The 2012 Pirates?

The Baseball Gods will let them win when they feel it correct to, and who are we to second guess the Baseball Gods?

 

[eznark]

BRAUNVP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here we come Pirates. Bend over as usual!

Wait, really? God damn Fredi

 

[Windu]

Wait, really? God damn Fredi

gotta love managing by the inning and not the situation.

 

[Sharp]

Wow... even Kenley Jansen is not safe from the clutches of Coors Field.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Fuck this bullpen.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Fuck this bullpen.

Claim Papelbon off waivers.

 

[eznark]

I hope tc farks is at this game.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Claim Papelbon off waivers.

They'll do it! I know they would do it.

Who wins The NL MVP?

 

[Mr. Enigma]

The Cubs have signed Starlin Castro to a 7-year, $60 million extension.

-- $6 million signing bonus

2013: $5 million
2014: $5 million
2015: $6 million
2016: $7 million
2017: $9 million
2018: $10 million
2019: $11 million

-- 2020 club option worth $16 million with a $1 million buyout.

-- If Castro finishes at least 5th in MVP voting at least twice, his 2019 guarantee will increase to $13 million and his 2020 club option will increase to $18 million.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Who wins The NL MVP?

Should be McCutchen, but probably Beltran if the Cards make the playoffs.

 

[eznark]

Who wins The NL MVP?

Braun repeat

 

[Windu]

Who wins The NL MVP?

top five in fWAR in the nl Wright/Braun/McCutchen/Heyward/Bourn.

 

[Sharp]

top five in fWAR in the nl Wright/Braun/McCutchen/Heyward/Bourn.

So you're saying it's going to be Chipper?

 

[CygnusXS]

I would say McCutchen, Posey, and Heyward are the most likely (not necessarily the most deserving).

 

[Windu]

So you're saying it's going to be Chipper?

if the world was just, it would be chipper.

 

[RBH]

So you're saying it's going to be Chipper?

Chad Durbin: first arm out of the pen

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Chad Durbin: first arm out of the pen

Dat inherited runners stranded

 

[Sharp]

Chad Durbin: first arm out of the pen

When will he remember he sucks?

 

[Dominican Power]

Should be McCutchen, but probably Beltran if the Cards make the playoffs.

 

[clemenx]

It's really up for grabs. McCutchen started sucking and Votto never came back. They're not giving it to Wright

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Who's ready for Miguel Batista's Braves debut?

 

[CygnusXS]

Batista time!!!!!

/swallows cyanide

 

[Windu]

fire fredi

 

[XiaNaphryz]

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Holy fuck that would have been hilarious.

 

[Sharp]

Good start!

 

[Windu]

I still don't understand why Cory Gearrin wasn't called back up. I think he had already been down long enough for whatever that time limit between call ups is. He was pitching really well.

Need vets for the stretch, bro.

Oh, what a terrible way to end a career.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Miguel Batista, everybody.

 

[CygnusXS]

I think they wanted to use Batista as long relief backup during the 6-man thing, but that's over now so... I don't know.
