  1. Well at least we are getting our hitting slump out of the way early again while the pitching is healthy. Just like last year.
  2. Yep, but when he's hot, man is it fun to watch.
  3. Springer is streaky. He and Marwin haven't really gotten hot yet. That's the beautiful thing about our lineup though, it's so potent a few guys slumping never really hurts us. Somebody else is always hot. I'm not the least bit worried about our offense, I think most of them showed they can hit even the best pitching when it matters. That is just so rare. Reddick and Marwin were really the only two big time producers in our lineup who got somewhat shut down in the postseason. And even they had their big moments. I also feel like both of them faced so many dominant lefties in the playoffs it isn't really fair to hold it against them. They are here to mash right handed pitching and balance our lineup.
  4. Marisnick, Fisher, and Davis are striking out in 43 percent of their plate appearances combined. Yuli taking their at bats will help dramatically.
  5. Maybe hot garbage is a little harsh, but I've been drinking the stuff since it was $20-25 bucks and always on the shelf. Now it's $30+ almost everywhere and declining in quality IMO. Just about everybody I talk bourbon with has had a similar experience. Granted, I haven't touched the stuff in over 6 months. Maybe it was just a quality control issue and localized with the batch that showed up here. I don't know.
  6. I got brisket, ribs, sausage both times. First time was amazing, second time was just "good". To be clear, it wasn't bad at all. I've tried almost all their sides and they were all great. Even their pickles are homemade and awesome. I really like the place, I was just disappointed I didn't have the same heavenly moment I did the first time.
  7. DK gets a quality start and has our worse outing from our starters. This is fun.
  8. Wow, I just watched the ESPN broadcast for a couple innings, our guys are so much better than them. Switching back with prejudice.
  9. Altuve sucks, he can't even keep a .500 average.
  10. FIsher probably could have passed McCann ha ha
  11. Charlie is just unfair as our 5th starter. He's got ace of the staff kind of stuff and experience on top of that. Man I hope these guys stay healthy for the most part to see what they can do as a starting staff.
  12. It almost sounded like D'Antoni was kind of calling out his players there and telling them no more resting just to rest. Get your ass to work. The Spurs started this mess but Pop has a specific method to his madness. He doesn't just rest guys at the end of the year in mass.
  13. You young fuckers can wait until I die then do whatever you want with baseball. It's perfectly fine as is. The only thing I support (which has already been addressed) is the mound visits just to go over what pitch to throw. I understand people steal signs, but get better signs or some shit. The playoffs last year were ridiculous. Man up pitchers.
  14. Well he did give up a run, so there is room for improvement.
  15. We don't win a World Series without Marwin. His home run off Jansen was huge.
  16. Yeah I knew that from the college basketball board when somebody stole his name. But I had forgot already. I'm clear again.
  17. I do like some of their fight videos.
  18. Don't run around throwing out neg rep like a bitch. Lighten up. I thought it was funny you were calling a rook an all star after one inning. Damn, new web site where we all get a fresh start and some people are already sensitive little nancys. Whatever I guess.
  19. Da fuck is this shit?
