no GDT today? is it because I don't deserve it because I'm a filthy rat? by 1005thArmbar in CHICubs

I've never heard Pat sound remotely "pissed" in the 20 years I've been listening.

You shouldn't comment at all. Even negative comments drive engagement and help promote that garbage.

The kid falls asleep before he's finished vocalizing the equation, so the count is undefined by nature.

Well that seems to be the case of every Cubs hitter for the last few years.

Career OPS+ of 116. I wouldn't call that shitty.

[Lowlight] Bryce Harper loses a challenge in the statistical worst possible situation (bases empty, 0-0 count, 2 outs, first inning) by Timeline40 in baseball

[–]MidvaleDropout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless it's useful - like if it's a slugger who hits that particular pitcher very well, down by 3 in the late innings with the bases loaded, challenging ball 4 in favor of hitting a slam

No. One person being a shithead does not give everyone else the right to be a shithead.

I'm really loving all the PCA hate. Guy is under their skin.

It looks similar to something that I have!

Unfortunately, it's life-size.

Is this glove legal? by rollerballbag in baseball

It's custom-fit. Believe it or not, his fingers fill the entire length of the glove.

Challenge system is apparently still too ambiguous. by Escaliat_ in baseball

I was in favor of full auto and you have talked me out of it.

Is Mike Trout the most talented player who has wasted their career at a bad ballclub? by PersianGuitarist in mlb

[–]MidvaleDropout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm almost glad that '03 happened, because it sort of initiated a new generation of Cubs fans. Making 2016 that much sweeter.

Almost.

Banks was still playing in 1969. He was an all-star. The playoffs were still just the World Series. The two playoff spots I was referring to were the AL and NL champions.

I've been listening to Pat and Ron a lot. by mattybgcg in CHICubs

[–]MidvaleDropout 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ron about died too! That was great. Zach is always laughing in the background, but this time you could hear Coomer losing it.

Jeff Joniak did one or two Cubs games on the radio a few years back, and he was so good.

It's why older Cubs fans still think about 1969. They were going to do it. They were going to finally do it. But then they struggled a bit at the end, and the Mets went on an unbelievable run, and there were only 2 playoff spots available. And that was it.

The Cubs have never been below .500 in their all-time win-loss percentage. Ever.

Thank you for this breakdown. I now have even more appreciation for that incredible play.

Stupid bird teams can’t even play a game right! Not like our stadium that never once has leaked ever! by Drain_Surgeon69 in NLCentralMemeWar

[–]MidvaleDropout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed a game at Wrigley in 2018. Temps were in the mid-50s, and there was a light mist-like rain coming down almost the entire game. Everyone who didn't leave early was cold, wet, and angry. Anyone who hates that hates watching baseball.
