They essentially are batting a pitcher 8th today...

Javy moving up in the world ... this kinda resembles a traditional lineup.

I like it. It may backfire, but it's a solid idea.

I only heard the last part of that one on the radio ... gotta be the most unearned run ever given up.

It might be a bit premature to say this, but I'd like for Joe to just keep this lineup for a while.

Sloppy. Bader had a lead halfway to home plate; Lester had no chance even if Willson dug that one cleanly

I've enjoyed Schwarber and Javy's opposite field approach as of late. Keep it up.

No command or movement today. Brutal. Weaver has been really good... iirc the Cub hit him pretty well in a game last fall as well.

I'm not so sure. Weaver isn't throwing anything but the 1 anywhere near where it's called.

Oh well. I'm still drinking beer and watching a baseball game in the afternoon "working" from home.

Im just kidding.

But catcher's get praise when pitcher's do well, you rarely hear "man, yadi really fucked up tonight"

^^^^ Thank you .... work was getting in my way of .gif posting.

Old women and auto insurance billing questions do not mix well together. Like having one's wisdom teeth extracted via their anus.

Eddie Butler has a striking resemblance to the assassin from Last Action Hero:

It varies .... generally they have to get to 6 early and likely not having given up anything ... or they go an a real tear at some point ... when it feels right, I do it.

Baez has been crazy inaccurate lately. He use to be automatic but now when he throws it I hold my breath like when Russell throws it.

He's only committed two errors previously. And he makes MANY more of those types of throws than he doesn't.
