i believe it. somehow it doesn't seem to be translating to wins the way one might hope
― mookieproof, Thursday, 4 September 2014 21:54 (nine years ago) link
i was hoping the pirates could be one win away from the Cards by the end of the weekend but ... the rockies.

a little late, but let us pause to recognize that the pirates have guaranteed their second winning season since 1993
if only they'd won a single fucking game against the cards 10 days ago they'd even have a shot at the division. good thing clint barmes totally owns madbum

Still a long shot at the division... that's really the only suspense left in the NL.

McCutchen with two HBPs tonight, Garza ejected

it seems possible that he didn't mean to do the second one, but
he'd previously only hit two batters all year

5 years ago would not have imagined a world in which the o's, nats, and pirates were contenders. i guess the competitive balance stuff does work after all
― ciderpress, Wednesday, 24 September 2014 13:58 (nine years ago) link
getting multiple extremely high draft picks is a big help
which makes the o's success even more impressive, because they didn't quite have that
― mookieproof, Wednesday, 24 September 2014 14:04 (nine years ago) link
tbh i kinda agree with him, just that it seems silly to have a huge champagne celebration after every single advancement
― linda cardellini (zachlyon), Wednesday, 24 September 2014 18:32 (nine years ago) link
Sending my congratulations from Milwaukee; I'm rooting for you guys
― Evan R, Wednesday, 24 September 2014 18:48 (nine years ago) link
yeah i think going nuts for winning a wild card game or a division series is kind of lame, and a pennant doesn't mean so much anymore, but making the playoffs postseason after 150+ games is a good moment imo
it's kind of like when i come home and my cat is all purr-y and rubbing up against me and i'm like dude chill, you're gonna get trod upon, i'm *trying* to get to the food. but it's nice to know that he appreciates it
okay it's not really that much like that, but still

ok seriously a champagne celebration after clinching the wc AND the division, two times!! before the postseason begins!! is ridiculous
