That was 275 games ago...

If the trend holds, we're looking at around June 15, 2022 for the next CG.

I hope he can go 9 because the bullpen doesn't have a large enough lead to close the game out.

I'm a genius.

So did Johnny Mac's, and Kaleb Cowart's...

I was never impressed with Cowart.

No, but I do have a problem with your usage of English, as I believe you meant, "we don't have a problem with the use of English."

No, I like the way he uses it.

Fair enough. I like it too.

This is the ideal male body. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like

I was afraid of that, but mine is actually correct.

Both are acceptable. I was just mad at you.

I'm just glad Maddon used his restraint of going to the bullpen. Bundy had 107 pitches and his arm did not fall off. Proof that pitchers can pitch 110 -120 pitches and be fine. Need more deep starts like this.

Brilliant observation. Absolutely stellar today.

He was a great defender, just couldn't hit ML pitching

from Astros board

Stassi has an OPS over 1.300 with 4 HRs so far... We've got Garneau though.

[Erstad Grit]

Bundy + Stassi!!!!!!!!!

The only downer today is, of course, Upton.   Now batting .116

At least Rendon has a near .400 OBP, vs Upton's .188 OBP. 

He looks lost. I mean we want to him to get hot and that will only happen with him in there but geeze

Dylan Bundy for Cy Young

Bundstasstic game.

I am curious. Are the game day threads much shorter when there’s a game like today that is basically all good?

i know I get like 10 times more twitter comments about bad stuff than good stuff.

Yes, without a doubt.  This is probably the shortest one of the year, because the game was virtually all positive.

The WB's (Whiny Bitches) mysteriously disappear when we win. We'll suck again as soon as we lose. 

Or give up a 1st inning run.

Check out where Dylan Bundy ranks among starting pitchers through 4 starts! 

[Stradling]

I read that Bundy is the same age as Castillo of the Reds.
