I don't know our BABIP numbers,
but it seems like we’ve had a helluva lot of bad luck over the last few games.
Max Scherzer is all out of bubblegum.
Well, aren't you just a Negative Nancy?
The boys in Sedona Red slugged it out with a pretty pesky poltergeist, then stayed on to dance the night away with some of the lovely ladies who witnessed the disturbance.
What the hell do you want me to say.
We’re a good team and a bad stretch.
Brandon Webb, that's all I'm going to say.
that's how I feel
the tide will turn.I remember a horrible spell last year before the All Star game
We will meet in Red 3 at the hour of scampering.
Bad stretch.
When was the last time we win a series, excluding the Tigers and Rockies 2 weeks ago.
Brandon Webb, that's all I'm going to say.
Um....
That’s like saying “When have we EVER won a World Series, excluding 2001”

Beat me to the punch

Nobody told me there was punch! Is there pie, too?

No but you can check back July 22nd
and I’ll approximately have some.
The boys in Sedona Red slugged it out with a pretty pesky poltergeist, then stayed on to dance the night away with some of the lovely ladies who witnessed the disturbance.
Fine, I will say this
when was the last time we beat a good team in a series, which is way I left out Tiger and Rockies.
Brandon Webb, that's all I'm going to say.
That's not a very good question,
seeing as how we played 4 game series’ with the Phillies and Braves, and it’s harder to win 3 out of 4 than 2 out of 3.

And we split with the Braves
two of the wins quite convincing.
The boys in Sedona Red slugged it out with a pretty pesky poltergeist, then stayed on to dance the night away with some of the lovely ladies who witnessed the disturbance.
Against the Phillies I remeber Max getting Rocked and Quails blowing a game.
Brandon Webb, that's all I'm going to say.
I can handle being beaten 4-3 or something like that when both teams play good.
Brandon Webb, that's all I'm going to say.
That tells me
that you’re remembering only what you want to remember.
What about the Cubs series, when we had a lead when our starters left 2 of the 3 game?

Maybe luck
doesn’t exist, except in very short stretches at a time.

I think
Colorado proved luck does exist in medium stretches. 21 out of 22.
They were playing out of their minds, period.
Yeah, sure, they had a few lucky bounces, but mostly, they just became invincibly good for a stretch.
