This could be the Cubs' year. But I doubt it. They always somehow manage to get in their own way.

The Red Sox finally got over the hump, Cubs will too.

Mets own the Cubs.

the cubs went 7-0 vs the mets in the regular season, and 0-4 in the postseason. i just can't wrap my brain around it.

Arrieta!

Back to Bonds vs. Griffey.

You could make the argument that playing Gold Glove CF is more valuable than playing Gold Glove LF. It's probably a winning one, but it's not enough to make Griffey a more valuable player than Bonds. They were both 5-tool (both had good arms, but not elite). Griffey was never better than Bonds tho.

consider this: Bonds had 15 seasons with an OPS over 1.0. The Royals have 2 such seasons, both by Brett, in their history. Bonds is the best player in our lives by a wide margin.

20K's in only 119 pitches is absurd. Can't wait to see the advanced metrics on this one, certainly has to be the most efficient 20K game.

20 K is more incredible than a perfect game IMO.

Maybe. Schaefer threw fewer pitches but more strikes though.

Sorry, was playing a bit of tennis.
Less about Arrieta and more about how the media is treating him, look at this article
http://www.sbnation.com/mlb/2016/4/28/11526776/jake-arrieta-stephen-a-smith-cubs
I mean this guy essentially is saying, yeah I doubted McGuire and Bonds because of their change in look and numbers but its it's totally unfair to do it to Arrieta. WTF? This isn't the only article like this, as a matter of fact googling Arrieta and PED or steroids is just a million articles about people being pissed at Stephen A for even bringing it up. I mean the guy looks like rough ridin' Tarzan and his career arc changed essentially overnight. Why does he have so many people caping up and why is this guy where baseball nerds will draw the line?
