Raise the Jolly Roger - Are You Ready For 98 Wins & An Absurdly Early Off-Season?!

[NewAgeOutlaw]

Well the Cubs scored. Guess Hurdle's plan to win 1-0 is ****ed.

 

[Cherpak]

Jesus christ this stupid ass umpire is already starting....

 

[Winger for Hire]

This K Zone on TBS is not only annoying, but completely inaccurate

 

[Tasty Biscuits]

Bah. Work that count a bit guys.

But it is J-hay. Gotta take the good with the bad.

 

[Dick Sledge]

So far this is the start I would have hoped for Cole.

 

[GarbageGoal]

Good.

 

[Cherpak]

Last night to counter Tanaka the Astros went up there and swung at the first pitch so as to not allow him to delve into his 7 pitch arsenal. They ended up crushing two home runs. Might want to think about that tonight.

 

[Waffle Fries]

Getting a hit early is huge for the team mentally. Lets them know that Arrieta isn't truly unhittable.

 

[GarbageGoal]

Damn it, I thought he had jumped on that.

 

[ColePens]

Come on Marte... We needed at least more pitches than 3.

 

[bathroomSTAAL]

Ugggh

 

[Dick Sledge]

When he swung in the dirt I knew that AB wasn't going to be pretty.

 

[Empoleon8771]

This team needs to be patient at the bat, they need to get Arrieta's pitch count up. Don't swing at the first 2 every time, he needs to be our by the 7th.

 

[Coastal Kev]

Roids are a helluva an advantage.

 

[Smoke]

Missed the meat ball, then gets caught looking for the breaking ball.

You got to capitalize on the bad pitches...

 

[Cherpak]

When they get men on the base they need to start stealing. Pressure Arrieta . Make him think about that runner as he is delivering the pitch.

 

[cajal]

Arrieta definitely has attitude out the wazoo. Hopefully the Bucs knock some of it out of him before it's over.

I guess we'll see.

 

[Dick Sledge]

Cutch just doesn't run as much anymore.

 

[Dick Sledge]

A 1 2 3 inning would be huge.

 

[Penguins23]

My thoughts exactly. Not to mention that stringing 3 straight hits together is very unlikely.

 

[Cherpak]

Cutch just doesn't run as much anymore.

This is a do or die game. Whether he likes to do it or not its time to pull out all the stops. He doesn't get a pass in my book because he is Cutch. Start being CLUTCH.

 

[Dick Sledge]

Was Castro the guy who cried when he thought he was traded or was that some Met player?

Wilmer Flores on the Mets

 

[Dick Sledge]

Wilmer Flores on the Mets

Ah, thanks.

 

[TNT87]

Done deal.
