Have no clue on what we are doing with Puig. Sending him down just diminishes his value even more. If they are trying to send a message i don't think he even gives a fuck about anything so it's not gonna work.
 
Fowler was the catalyst he kept getting hits off fernandez then scoring the cubs for some odd reason can't hit 4-5 starters but can make an ace work makes no sense whatsoever

Strop almost blew the game and baez ab's have been awful the last 2 games but his defense been on point
 
the bullpens tweaking and the starting pitching returning to form has gotten the cubs back on track

maddon gotta keep putting contreras behind the plate for everyone but lester i guess

he played with gordon once again at 1b and it worked with rondon picking him off

he has a keen eye for the game behind the plate and is proving he will make base runners think twice with that arm he has -- hammel was praising him in his post game presser too -- its obvious the veteran pitchers on the team think highly of him so might as well ride the hot hand now and get dude some meaningful playing time before the playoffs

the home plate umpire in philly stopped the game to eject a fan

bob davidson called time out

walked over to the stands and ejected a guy who was about 15 rows up

the fan hung around being defiant until security arrived and escorted him out

and this was in philadelphia whos famous for his kinda stuff -- i dont know what this guy could have said that was so far over the line that they kick him out though -- i didnt know that umpires were allowed to do that but evidently they are -- the fans around the offender seemed cool to see him go so he must have been an especially annoying loudmouth

Hendricks said monday after the complete game shut out that was the best game contreras called since he's been up.Monday contreras tried to get gordon on a pick off attempt and gordon was shaking his head nah waggin his finger like mutumbo.Then gordon tried to steal 2nd and contreras gunned his ass out and did the mutumbo finger thing back to gordon I loved that shit duke a competitor.
 
Intrigued by the potential AL playoff match ups.Tigers closing the gap on the Indians they're 3 games out

Rangers,Orioles,Indians and the 2 wild cards which could be Tigers(or indians),Blue Jays,Astros,Orioles there's gonna be some good match ups in the alds

yea hes got some dog in him

he snapped on that triple in the 9th against atlanta not too far back

contreras and hendricks have been great togther

hes caught him his last 5 or so starts and thats exactly what he needs

to get more work in behind the plate and get some chemistry going with the staff so he could start game 1 for arrietta and keep montero on the bench as much as possible
 
maybe the biggest miss was the failure of the red sox to close the deal with the white sox for sale

i dont know what it is with these boston GMs that think opposing GMs are in the business of making their teams better but i hope the red sox starting pitching keeps struggling

itll just give hahn better leverage when theyll come knocking again for quintana/sale during the offseason
 
Is koehler a 4-5 starter? lol this makes no sense beat sale,made king felix labor and beat fernandez and get shut down by miguel gonzalez and koehler
 
lackey will blame contreras for not jumping over the basket to catch that meatball

he always blames everyone but himself
