I am sure if there was a Brewers fan here, you would not post anything to hurt his/her feelings. You got along with AMfootball when no one else couldn't. Lol. When she put down your favorite players and team, you did not demean her or the Pats. So, I'm sure you would get along with that Brewers fan. 

 

 

I think the more the merrier. I wish more baseball fans would join. I notice that there are Orioles fans and Yankees fans but they don't post in this thread. While it is a baseball thread, it seems that only fans of NL teams are posting. 

Correct , and by the way where's our Yankees fans ?

Yeah I was talking with @NFLfan and said to her I am sure if I ever say anything out of line that Jay would let me know. I trash talk a little at times, but it is in good nature. Jay/you created this thread and I would never do anything to make it look it bad.

No worries Brother . Sometimes people don't understand each other. We have all gotten along just fine in here over the years.

Mets lose but I am encouraged by the Mets hitting. Those who know me here know that I have been down on Mets approach to hitting. This team has fight. They are a fun team to watch.

 

Mets have off tomorrow. Jacob deGrom is pitching on Tuesday.

Yes your Club is heading in the right direction and I believe it will be long term.

Yeah, buccolts and I are cool now too. I know sometimes I post about the Cubs history a lot so it can get tiring reading that stuff but I am just proud of what they have accomplished this decade. Yu Darvish on the other hand is a different story

Never liked the signing from the get go. I felt he was a head case.

For Love of the Game was really great too with Costner. Have you ever seen Mr 3000? That is a comedy/drama but darn good too.

I didn't either but I loved Jake and to me Yu can't carry Jakes jock strap  . Jake was the man from 2015-2017. 

[Jay Kirk]

Cards bullpen has made changes , and looking stout. Some of it people just finding command . Cmart ready to do rehab stint. Question will he start or Bull Pen ?

You guys will win the division, I have to be straight up and can't lie  . I still think the Brewers and Cubs make the playoffs (if we get our crap together)

Jake would still be productive there.

Yeah Jake still looks good. I still do not understand why Theo let Jake walk and signed Yu who is a headcase that blew the WS vs Houston.

Lot of baseball to play , anything can happen. I really think its a fair chance though.

Yeah it's early but we look bad . Our pitching just stinks.

The Cubs may have to make a move or two to shore that up, and they are capable if management makes an honest effort. I hope they do.

[2006Coltsbestever]

We went from Jake and Chap to Yu and Chatwood

Wahca goes for Cards with some people getting rest.  Yadi Ozuna and Carpenter not starting. Oh left out Fowler but oh well

I thought going in, it would be a 2-2 series vs the Dodgers, it may be 4-0 Cards.

Trouble with the curve is a good baseball movie, although I’m a big fan of pretty much all of Clint Eastwood’s movies. Great actor and director.

[RollerColt]

Welp, it was a rough few weeks but it looks like the Reds have managed to get some wins finally. Pitching (which was usually our weakness) has now become a strength. All of our starters have done decent jobs. 

 

Looks like the Cards are going to be a lot to handle this weekend though. They are smokin' hot at the moment. 

[2006Coltsbestever]

The Cubs game started on me a half hour early. It is in the 2nd Inning, no score.

I have Yahoo!, ESPN, and B/R notifications to tell me when the games(Cubs, Colts, Blackhawks, Pacers, UK, ND, Evansville, and now Aces) start
