Hardcore troubadour 12,627 Posted May 8, 2017 Interesting. I was back in Chicago in '04, so getting back into the Cubs while setting the Yankees aside was easier to do. In fact, the last Yankee game I saw live was at Wrigley in 2003. I rooted for them to win in '09 since there were still several players left from the '01 team that I liked. But that was the end of it for me. Went to that series in 03 at wrigley. Great time. I loved the bathroom set up there, in and out, which was nice, we were hitting it hard. Wrigleyville was great too. The strip clubs sucked though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kilroy69 994 Posted May 10, 2017 Back on topic. Yonder Alonso? Changed his swing in the offseason. It's resulted in double the amount of fly balls vs his career rate of ground balls and it's got him to his career high of homers in his first month. He's always had a batters eye. I hope he keeps this up. I'm a Michigan fan first but a cane fan second so I kinda follow guys like this for fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vuduchile 1,941 Posted May 16, 2017 Cubs are sub .500, have the most errors in the NL, and their starting rotation has lost it's mojo. But, it's still early. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cruzer 1,992 Posted May 22, 2017 I can't believe this Rangers team is actually climbing itself out of the sewer... The bullpen has finally come together and the timely hits are starting to fall back into form... 11 out of 12 and Houston now getting hit by the injury bug themselves - we could be back in it. . Especially with Beltre and Hamels not even back yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drizzay 645 Posted May 22, 2017 The Twins are leading the Central. The Twins are -3 in the Differential.. da fuq? It's because Gibson and Hughes have been horseshit. They give up 6+ runs. Two starters are skewing the differential all by themselves. Santana has been for the most part fantastic. Santiago has been serviceable, and Berrios is fulfilling his potential.
