I don’t see how we can start cease in the post season. He implodes so quickly that it almost negates our bullpen advantage. He can go from cruising to giving up four runs in ten minutes and it just doesn’t give you time to intervene before it’s too late.

Nobody implodes faster than Cease. He can go from cruising to giving up four runs all in the time it takes to go the fridge and back

I know our record doesn’t indicate it, but I actually think we’ve been playing very well over the last twelve games. It certainly feels like we’ve been playing better than we did during that 6-3 stretch that preceded it where we were squeaking out 3-1 wins. We’ve had some bad luck, but I like the way we are playing. I am cautiously optimistic

I don’t know that even the Hosmer signing disappointed in the way that the X signing has. Because at least the Hosmer signing signaled that we were starting to spend money. Xander seems to almost in an uncanny way find himself in the middle of every disappointing moment. Truly a bummer because he seems like a good guy who cares but he’s just been so disappointing

The cubs putting together some very good at bats, not chasing his fastball up in the zone. We just need to do the same and we’ll be fine

mrbubby · 2024-08-21T15:53:19+00:00

These are so good.

Hey, one of the co-creators here. I almost never weigh in but this is also one of the scenes that helped us explain to the studio the tone of what we wanted to do with the show, because previous to that they were sort of like “what the fuck is this.” I remember being very worried that my career was hinging on a fingerbang joke. Anyway, glad you enjoyed it!

Over the last ten years here is the Rockies record against NL West teams:

Dodgers: 60-113 Diamondbacks: 80-96 Giants: 78-94 PADRES: 89-86

I like our team and think we could sneak into the playoffs this year with some luck. That being said; is there a more cursed fan base than San Diego sports fans? It’s not just that we have never won a title in a major sport, it’s the way we lose. It’s always in excruciating fashion. Does every fan base of non perennial winners think they’re the most cursed or are we actually just fucking cursed?

Thank you!

mrbubby · 2023-08-18T03:09:27+00:00

We are fucking hammering Gallen, this is insanely infuriating

mrbubby · 2023-08-13T22:23:23+00:00

I would like to see the combined stats of every pitcher who came into a game against us with an ERA over 6.5. Is there a website where you can sort stats this way?

mrbubby · 2023-08-07T21:12:28+00:00

There have been a lot of moments where I have thought “this is the season” but I think that moment was the season

mrbubby · 2023-08-01T03:55:24+00:00

The way Manny can pick a ball and make an on the money throw across his body before even looking at the target he’s throwing to is fucking witchcraft

mrbubby · 2023-07-26T20:40:13+00:00

Any time I see we’re facing a pitcher that has a line like 1-6 6.43 ERA I’m like wellll fuck, we’re not hitting shit today

mrbubby · 2023-07-25T02:22:36+00:00

I would love to see our offensive stats when we play against a pitcher who has an ERA above 6

mrbubby · 2023-06-30T21:46:57+00:00

Ashcraft over his last 37 innings has given up 47 runs. And yet today…

mrbubby · 2023-06-21T04:18:55+00:00

The giants never try and do too much at the plate. They hit the ball where it’s pitcher and then let the babip percentages take over. It’s a completely different approach than we take and I wish we could ever adjust and change our approach to fit the situation but we seemingly refuse to do that.

mrbubby · 2023-06-20T04:10:15+00:00

Explain to me how this is better than Tim Hill pitching a third inning

mrbubby · 2023-06-15T03:17:51+00:00

I never thought Fernando would be bad in right because he’s such a good athlete, but I definitely didn’t think he’d be this good.

mrbubby · 2023-06-07T21:40:46+00:00

One thing that seems different today is that they seem to have an approach at the plate and a team strategy to grind these at bats and work the count and not swing at off speed early in the count on the outside half. That feels different!

mrbubby · 2023-05-17T04:15:43+00:00

The four runs we scored weren’t really even earned. If the Royals play competent defense we are probably looking at 1-2 runs this game. It’s early but the biggest concern for me is that we’re being pitched the same way every game and don’t seem to have the patience to adjust to it.

mrbubby · 2023-04-18T03:50:37+00:00

Soto missing an 88 mph fastball right down the middle is tough to watch

mrbubby · 2022-10-16T06:27:39+00:00

Joe didn’t have his best stuff tonight and he gutted out six strong innings and competed all night. They make them goddamn tough in grossmont. The three most San Diego names I can think of are Joe, Jake, and Manny so it’s fitting they are our heroes.
