Griffinator Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Taking two of three from the Rays was an absolute must after losing the series against Baltimore. We've got to get at least two more up here in Toronto - .500 for this 10-game stretch isn't going to cut it. A bunch of loud, obnoxious music I USED to make with friends.

Dave Ferris Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I been a STL fan since the early '60s and can't ever recall having a start like this. And that's with our ace & cleanup hitter (Wainright& Matt Adams) out for the year along with Holiday , who's been on the DL for a few weeks.Not to mention other guys on and off the DL for shorter periods. Who knows if they can keep it up, but if they keep winning they're going to be at 700% before long. https://soundcloud.com/dave-ferris https://www.youtube.com/@daveferris2709 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Wright Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Well, my guys are sinking a bit in the AL, but it's anybodies ballgame. Boston's kinda suckin' hind ti**y (sorry Griff), but it's still early brother.

Griffinator Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Boston's kinda suckin' hind ti**y (sorry Griff), but it's still early brother. Hope springs eternal, my friend. Just picked up #2 from Toronto, with a nice bounce-back performance from rookie Eduardo Rodriguez, and we're now only 6 games out thanks to everyone else in the division going on a skid at the same time. If we grab at least one more from the Jays (or possibly even both, with the way their bats have been since they left Texas), we're right in the thick of it despite still being under .500.

Griffinator Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Well, they still have 8 games to win, but no doubt they felled the biggest tree in their way, the 100-win Cards...

16251 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 I'm a fair weather fan and live in Boston. I'll watch sports teams if they're at least competitive and the Red Sox have sucked, not withstanding they won a World Series in 2013. I would love to see Chicago win it all and Theo to get the credit. The Red Sox management can't seem to get out of their own way since he left. The new mgmt is keeping Farrell and I think that will be as big of mistake as the Bruins Mgmt. keeping their coach and the B's are going to choke big time this year.

Best, Geoff Methinks the KC Forum needs a 'baseball' emoticon. Last night my final student and I - both Cubs' fans - were glued to MLB.com Gameday on our phones; the bottom of the 8th/top of the 9th of game 5 just about matched the half-hour lesson slot. We actually did get something accomplished in the lesson, though writing out minor blues scales during the top o' the 9th took nerves of steel. 'Someday, we'll look back on these days and laugh; likely a maniacal laugh from our padded cells, but a laugh nonetheless' - Mr. Boffo. We need a barfing cat emoticon!

Geoff Grace Posted October 16, 2015 Author Share Posted October 16, 2015 Rats! So close but yet so far for the Dodgers. My hat's off to the Mets. They got it done in LA, when most people picked the Dodgers to win. I'm rooting for the Cubs the rest of the way nowmostly because they are so overdue, but also because it would be fun to see this Back to the Future whimsical prediction become a reality.

Honestly, I think the Cubbies have already taken out their toughest competition in St. Louis.

St. Louis were great during the season, and they're typically formidable in the postseason; so I agree it was quite an accomplishment that Chicago beat them. The Cubs have got the weather on their side tonight in New York: 49 degrees and windytypical autumn Chicago conditions. (I know it's not exactly atypical for NYC either, but I look at it as a good sign for Chicago anyway.)
