  1. Boston won the division
  2. Marlins are done. Also, no repeat champion this year.
  3. Pirate loss, Met win and Giant win end the Pirates. That same combo has the Marlins one game from elimination.
  4. Jake Taylor.
  5. Sad. Reminds me of the tragic boat ride that Bobby O survived.

Name the other four, and guess how many division titles the franchise has won. Good trivia question. How about the Rangers? I'm guessing you just copied and pasted this here after posting it on a Yankees forum, and forgot to take the John Sterling reference out. Yuck.
  7. Boston clinched at least a wildcard by winning today. Washington got a wildcard by winning, and then the NL East when the Mets finished losing. The Dodgers win to clinch the west, and also would've clinched a wildcard with the win. Wildcard - 9/14AL West - 9/23Wildcard - 9/24Wildcard - 9/24NL West - 9/25NL Central - 9/15AL East - 9/28NL East - 9/24AL Central - 9/26
  8. And the White Sox are out. 9/289/289/279/239/219/219/179/169/169/169/159/139/119/7
  9. The Rangers have not clinched a wildcard yet, but they do get the division. Wildcard - 9/14AL West - 9/23NL Central - 9/15
  10. Are any CPFers available to pitch tomorrow? Can you get a month or two off from work? If you don't like pitching there are other positions available.
  11. The Reds are out. The Brewers and Phillies are close but it will be a few days before any other teams are out.
  12. Big day yesterday. The Reds are on the brink today.
  13. Must've been a sample ad for Detroit and some idiot MLB executive ordered it for every team.
  14. The Cubs clinched their division yesterday, though they actually clinched at least a wildcard the day before Wildcard-9/14NL Central-9/15
  15. I saw the Mets last year in a place that I didn't expect: the playoffs. Hiyo! Let's Go Mets!
  16. 9/179/169/169/169/159/139/119/7
  17. The Twins are the first team mathematically eliminated from the 2016 playoffs. 9/7
  18. Terry makes questionable decisions.
  19. I worry that I'm getting too cocky. Invites punishment from the baseball gods. After the game yesterday I'm looking at the pitching matchup and wondering how the Metd could lose today. Very dangerous train of thought.
  20. Collins taking out Henderson like a dope. Let him try to get out of it. You can overuse your bullpen studs later in the year like you did in 2015.
  21. MFS62 wrote: Michael Hiltzik (The person who wrote that, for those of you who didn't click on the link) writes like someone who can see the negative side of anything. He must have had a miserable childhood, never letting his imagination run free or allowing any fun into his life. I don't know anything about him, but that seems like the description of someone who wouldn't like this movie. Not that it was the greatest thing ever, but I don't get this review. The movie was a really good time, as the other 99% of reviews indicate.
  22. Edgy MD wrote: With the Han analog from this film, Poe Dameron, all you know about him is that he's a hotshot pilot. And that we have to learn through a quick force-feeding, when he's called the resistance's "best pilot" in the crawl, and him boasting "I can fly anything" as he kicks into action. Bam, I’m supposed to care about this guy? He's the fifth most important character in the story, so no, you're not supposed to overly care about him. The story was busy developing the other characters. And it developed them well. And calling him a Han analog is a silly, gross oversimplification.
  23. They're the best broadcast team in baseball and losing any would be a tragedy.
  24. Added a poll. It's getting pretty much universal acclaim. I really liked it. I'm pretty sure it was better than Jedi but still too early to tell for sure. Might be up there with the first movie, but probably not going to beat Empire for me.
  25. I can't watch the celebration. I'm going to watch something less disgusting, like the zombie TV show. If the Mets come out to say goodbye and someone makes note of it here I'll flip back... Any of you watching the celebration have a stronger stomach than me
