2016 MLB thread. THE CUBS HAVE BROKEN THE CURSE! Chicago Cubs are your 2016 World Series champions

[jumpmanfromdabay]

Ladies and gentleman, the San Francisco Giants.

You forgot 2010 & 2012 World Series Champs

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

That's nice. So that experience should help you guys win it again this year without home field advantage, right?

 

[obeahmyal7]

Hunter Pence $90 million 

ahh why not...

 

[jumpmanfromdabay]

I'm sorry it's hard for me to sit here and critize him for signing someone who's having a good year and helped them win the world series the year before.

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

Because it's not your $120-something million dollars that largely went to ****. He made a bad signing that he's standing by today. That should make anyone concerned.

The Reds are an absolute mess right now.

Man, if a single play ever described a teams season in a nutshell, that was it for the Astros. Damn, that's embarrassing .

when is MO playing CF?

Don't think it's gonna happen anymore.

Good luck to Cru and Alejandro on the last day of the championship of the NT Keeper League.  Crazy that its so close that one day really will decide the season.

brian wilson

sad to see mo for the last time at yankee stadium. loved the move with jeter & pettitte taking him out though.

 

[noblekane]

brian wilson is a *****. you can tell this dude got a little too much sugar in his tank. ***** sounds like the white richard jefferson...

If Mo plays CF and gets an AB, I'd stick one right in his earhole.

Why? even the biggest yankee haters (boston) cheered for him. One of the most respected Athletes i have ever seen.

I love Mo, he's the greatest reliever of all time, but he is not a position player. The idea of him playing in the field makes no sense and it's disrespectful to the game and players who have worked their *** off to get there.

 

[macbk]

He came out today and said how he didn't want to pitch at all in this Astros series because Thursday night was the absolute perfect sendoff he could imagine. He also said how he's been pitching hurt for the past month or so.

While it would be cool to see him in Center, I don't think it's likely anymore.

It's Mo we are talking about here though. Not like it's John Rocker out there .

I honestly don't care who it is, I'd feel the same way. I just don't see the point. If you want to give him another ovation in his final game, call him in from the pen, play enter sandman, let him jog in and tip his hat to the Houston crowd.

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

Yeah... Nobody wants to see him in center as the last act of his career. Makes no sense.

 

[a55a5in11]

let the man play center if he wants too.

People treating Rivera like a God..


He's a legend but all this extra stuff his lame.

Plus his position is overrated...

Seriously! For some reason Hard Rock Cafe retired Enter Sandman from all of their restaurants. You would think he wrote it for christ's sake.

dland: Thanks, man. Did my best LaRussa micromanaging impression.

Got four SP's going to close the season tomorrow.

Injuries to CarGo, Matty, Dom, Ellsbury, Rosario, Matty Moore. What can you do. Such is baseball.

Great season, fellas.
