Man. Leon just crushes it in the 12th for the walkoff. Almost into Lansdowne Street.
Sale looked excellent in his first start. Good game all around.

FRANKIE FUCKING LINDOR!!!!
Makes up for a costly 2 unearned run (and exceedingly rare for the platinum glove winner) error by following it up with an angry swing solo shot AND a go-ahead 9th inning GRAND SLAM!

Cubbies World Series trophy presentation is pretty badass with "It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock n roll"
Although they cut it off early. You don't cut Bon off, Cubbies. Only Bon does that. New curse.
But they like long balls better.Quote:

And the season kicks off at Wrigley. I like our chances - its going to be another fun season.
^ That was a pretty boring game until the last couple innings, then it got pretty good.
Can't lose on banner day!Quote:

I love the crazy in baseball.
Jason Castro looking like a great pick up so far. Also average ERA just above 2-- too bad there's no way we can maintain that :(Quote:

By the way webdudes, the new photo linking restrictions suck balls.
Made it to my first game of the season last night. Great game with the Mariners taking it 2-1 on a good performance from King Felix.

You take those? Nice seats!
Chris Sale is dominating. If the Sox keep him off the mound on throwback night I think he could win the Cy Young.
Thanks. Yeah, it looks like I'm right at field level, but was actually in row 11.Quote:

Helloooooo...chowds????
For stats geeks, a really good article by Nate Silver on closer usage and the save: https://fivethirtyeight.com/features...lief-pitchers/
Meh. You can have your early season wins. Come back in August and we'll talk.Quote:

No trash talk until August? What fun is that?
Yankees suck.
How's that for an opening salvo?
CC might be good again now that he's fat again.
Red Sox clearly have the best outfield in baseball, and probably the best pitching staff, and the infield is pretty amazing too, good luck chumps.
How come that doesn't work for Panda?Quote:

Would you trade Xander for anyone in baseball? No. And Pedroia is nails. So the middle is good. Panda is a weak link, okay. but if he hits...
Moreland is killing it at the plate, but any ball not thrown directly to him is suspect.
Frankie Lindor MVP.
You heard it here first.
12 game hit streak
.392 ba
4 HR
13 runs
5 doubles
1 triple
and reigning gold and platinum glove winner.
11-4 victors tonight too if it matters.
They'll give it to Trout no matter what
Probably true. Guy is amazing, but there's a whole young crop under him ready to be recognized - Lindor at the top of that list IMO.Quote:

Trout is still only 25, he might get better.
