Lol Brewers back to being the Brewers.
I expect to be in 4th place before the season ends.

The Cubs are a good team. I'm surprised this is under any doubt.I write things on the Internet.

Wow...a Chip sighting! Long time, no post. Of course the Cubs are a good team...I haven't seen anyone intimate they aren't. They haven't played well, but that's the point...everyone knows they haven't played to their potential yet."People ask me what I do in winter when there's no baseball. I'll tell you what I do.

Re: 7/14 - 7/30 Game Discussion Thread
Stat of the Day. Corey Seager now has 45 career HR's. He now has more homers than any other shortstop in Los Angeles Dodgers history. All of this in about 2 full seasons. The previous record was 43 by Rafael Furcal.
The all time franchise record is 122 HR's by Pee Wee Reese, but that came while in Brooklyn.Comment

While that is impressive, it isn't like the Dodgers have had a lot of great SS, if any. I mean, the "best" Dodger SS since they moved to LA was probably Bill Russell (Furcal was the best talent, but Russell was in LA a lot longer). I remember Offerman was supposed to be the next big thing, except that he couldn't field."People ask me what I do in winter when there's no baseball. I'll tell you what I do.

Brewers are swept by Pittsburgh, and lead the Cubs by just a game. Cubs are idle today.Comment

Re: 7/14 - 7/30 Game Discussion Thread
They're probably a year away. They need a couple veteran guys who've been through the wars. You can really tell that they're just happy to be as good as they are right now what with how they play up to the camera after big plays/HRs. I really like this team so I hope they don't completely nosedive.Member of the Official OS Bills Backers Club

4th youngest?
Not sure when this snapshot was taken (today apparently)
With Hader, Arcia, Phillips, and Santana there already, I think you can say a good chunk of their young talent is already up.Chicago Cubs | Chicago Bulls | Green Bay Packers | Michigan WolverinesComment

Re: 7/14 - 7/30 Game Discussion Thread
How was that not blocking the plate? Is it because he jumped that it was no longer considered blocking or do you have to stand closer than 3 inches to the plate for it to violate the rule? That seemed like a clear cut block.“No one is more hated than he who speaks the truth.”
