LIHoosier Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Max Scherzer becomes the 6th pitcher to throw multiple no-no's in the same season. http://espn.go.com/mlb/recap?gameId=351003321 Naturalhoosier 1 Quote
HoosierTrav Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Wanted to separate this post from my last but last night was his 20th consecutive quality start. Only reason he pitched 6 was cause he is going Wednesday. He gave up 2 hits and was just dominating. I have watched a lot of baseball in my life and I have only seen Greg Maddux more consistently dominant in a single season. From someone who breathes baseball as much as Hoosier basketball I wish we had an adequate 3rd starter.. Next season my friend. Next season. Quote
mdn82 Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 . Next season my friend. Next season.Not giving up yet. Quote
Naturalhoosier Posted October 4, 2015 Author Posted October 4, 2015 Here's where the Astros stand (per ESPN): Trail Rangers by 1 game for AL West title Trail Yankees by 1 game for first AL wild card Currently in second AL wild-card spot Hold 1-game lead over Angels for second AL wild card JaybobHoosier 1 Quote
Naturalhoosier Posted October 4, 2015 Author Posted October 4, 2015 This year will be the Astros first +.500 record since 2008. The last four years they have finished the season 40, 42, 45, and 28 games back. Loving this turnaround!!!!! JaybobHoosier 1 Quote
Hovadipo Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 3:00 is a big time slot today. Cubs vs Brewers and Pirates vs Reds. If the Cubs win and Pirates lose, they tie for 1st in the Wild Card and the Cubs have the head-to-head tiebreaker on the season. I don't see Pitt losing today, but that could be huge for the Cubs to have homefield Wednesday. mdn82 1 Quote

It's weird cause having played the Reds before the Pitates did I thought they would smoke them hands down. The Reds have mostly controlled this series. Interesting day for sure. Cubs are rolling.

Reds are trotting out some guy that's 0-3 with a 7.22 ERA against Happ, so I'm not holding my breath, but a guy can hope. Quote

Hovadipo Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Go Astros!!!!!!!!! Bring on the Yankees!!!!! Can you imagine if they were still in the NL Central? That division would've been un-freaking-real this year. mdn82 and Naturalhoosier 2 Quote
LIHoosier Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Go Astros!!!!!!!!! Bring on the Yankees!!!!! Natty, just like in the fantasy playoffs, You're going down! And this time...its for real. Naturalhoosier and mdn82 2 Quote
Naturalhoosier Posted October 4, 2015 Author Posted October 4, 2015 Natty, just like in the fantasy playoffs, You're going down! And this time...its for real. Lol they are young and inexperienced so it wouldn't surprise me. Rather, I sort of anticipate that as the outcome. Quote
LIHoosier Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Lol they are young and inexperienced so it wouldn't surprise me. Rather, I sort of anticipate that as the outcome. Either here or in the playoff thread, I predicted the Yanks either lose the wild card game 12-0 or win it all. Tuesday, we'll know the answer. Quote

JSHoosier Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Either here or in the playoff thread, I predicted the Yanks either lose the wild card game 12-0 or win it all. Tuesday, we'll know the answer. I think losing 12-0 is more likely. They stuck with Stephen Drew WAY too long and the awfulness rubbed off on everyone else in the lineup. Bird was in AAA most of the season so obviously the stench of Drew didn't travel to Scranton. For a team that has gone after crappy veterans so many times, they finally found the holy grail of crappy veterans. mdn82 1 Quote

JSHoosier Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 oh now they just need Bartolo Colon and then you could say that. They relied on Stephen friggin' Drew and Brendan Ryan to man 2nd. It doesn't get more worthless than that combo. Yet they've had a love affair with Drew for a few years now so they'll probably re-sign him. :angry: :shout: :rtfm: :help: :banghead: mdn82 1 Quote
