Congrats to the team for a solid season

I am looking forward to Friday night

It seems the team is about a strong as one could hope for

Ernie · Oct-01-14 5:19PM

I am ready.....they play at noon (Piratas) or 3 (Gigantes) depending on tonight's outcome between the Pirates and Giants.

Dominion Dan · Oct-02-14 5:02PM

Well, I was hoping that the Pirates would win so the Nats would come to town...but I guess no luck.

Ernie · Oct-06-14 7:28PM

We dodged a sweep. Now it's time to relax and get it done.

Our pitchers have been over the top!

BTW, Bochy is a very good and seasoned manager.

Small ball =pressure
The other guy blinks
Kung-fu panda does the splits
Harper get his 1st grey hair
Umpires neec remedial instruction strike.zone

a game that denies prediction

GregF · Oct-07-14 10:27AM

Is that Haiku? I like it! I was listening on the radio on my way home and the announcers were in shock how bad the umpire was behind the plate calling balls and strikes. That is the kind of stuff that can mess up a good team. Luckily, the umpire was really bad both ways.

I am optimistic - the bats are getting a little hotter. We got through their ace Baumgarter (spelling?) and their next 2 pitchers should be hittable. Storen actually got a save in the post season under his belt.

I put a lot of blame for the first 2 games on LaRoche and Werth. They haven't delivered offensively and they are the core or heart of our offense. Luckily, as you said, they are starting to play small ball again instead of desperate swings for home runs all the time.

Ernie · Oct-07-14 5:45PM

No excuses now....time to get it done. The Cards await us....revenge.

But the game starts at 9......hope the DVR works right.

Scoring just nine runs
in forty five innings played
no NLDS

mudkart · Oct-08-14 4:41AM

Harper accounted for five of those nine runs.

Ernie · Oct-08-14 5:28AM

Incredibly, the Giants only scored 9 runs as well.

The kids (Rendon and Harper) were good. Most of the rest of our hitters took the week off.

Our pitching was good enough to win on most days.

Bochy is a very good manager, many little things he did disrupted our guys. He was relaxed....Williams looked tense.

Gonna be a looooong winter!

GregF · Oct-08-14 8:18AM

Sooooo frustrating! They are a better team than that and proved it all season. Really disappointed in them.

I agree Harper and Rendon delivered. That was a huge home run from Harper. I love to see how much passion he showed after that hit. Again I say the team needed MUCH more out of the senior leaders (Werth and LaRoche). They really let them down.

Oh well, hockey season starts on Thursday. GO CAPS!!!!!

Ernie · Oct-08-14 9:47AM

Passion!! And I think he was jawing with Strickland....some bad blood there. If he was showing him up, I would not respect that.

Hockey ain't got notin' on baseball.....

The mistakes killed us......Gio, Ramos/Barrett, LaRoche, Gio/Rendon. That does not include hanging curves or flat fastballs.

bigjeffie · Oct-08-14 2:23PM

as we got used to say at Wrigley Field

you just wait until next year...

Ernie · Oct-08-14 2:57PM

My friend Dan gets exited every year when spring comes. "Ern, this is our year", he says. The, 3-4 weeks later, it's over. Must be frustrating as all get out to be a Cubbies fan.

bigjeffie · Oct-09-14 2:28AM

actually it is an honor to be in the old original style Cubs fan.

like an inept fishermen
Deluded and forever hopeful
We filled the park every Sunday no matter how bad they wers
And,heered with all of our hearts

bigjeffie · Oct-09-14 2:47AM

I thought both teams played a good series.

It was worthy

That's how my friend feels....

And he uses similar prose....especially the heered!

Ernie · Nov-18-14 6:26AM

Watched some pretty good AFL ball......some good players coming up.

The Japan series did not interest me much but the no hitter (4 pitchers) was a definite highlight for the Japan team.

Now, I wait for the Caribbean Series and then only 99 days until it all starts up again!

And congrats to Matt Williams for getting the Manager of the Year award. But...I bet he would trade places with Bruce Bochy if asked what he prefers.
