Someone yesterday or the other day, (I thought it was you, maybe it was nervouscublover) said to DFA one of the Cubs after a poor game. When someone asked them why, they said, “because, I like saying DFA”. The whole thing was meant to be humorous; not calling anyone out at all.

Tie game, bottom of 10th, AJ at second with one out
He screws up and breaks on a grounder to short, gets in a rundown, and finally backs into one of the fielders and flopping to get interference called. 1st & 3rd, one out now.

I don't know who started it but every time Barrett was at the plate or Oswalt was batting
They always were yelling at each other. IIRC it ended up with the game being delayed once while they just stared each other down. I don’t think it ever became an actual fist fight.
Missouri Tigers 2008 Cotton Bowl Champs
barrett got right up in his face at the plate
oswaly had puposely hit a cub in his last start. O backed down like a girl.then after O GO’ed, Barrett trailed the play and barked at him all the way into the dugout. No one from the Astros said bleep. I would give credit for igniting them if there had been a scuffle, or even words, but it didn’t happen.
Do me a favor...
…check the standings the day that episode happened and compare that to seasons end and you can draw your own conclusion.
All in all, there is a time and place to get back at someone and Barrett’s timing was horrible.
"I don't like them fellas that drive in two runs but let in three" Casey Stengel
pure correlation, in my opinion
a lot of things happened at that time. Hard to say for sure that did, or didn’t play a role.
Could be...
…but you are always taught to let a sleeping dog lie, and at that time, the Stros were in a coma.
Bottom line, Barrett was clueless behind the plate and on the bases and it is very difficult to win with someone like that catching everyday.
"I don't like them fellas that drive in two runs but let in three" Casey Stengel
no doubt
and really, I enjoyed the incident for because I found it hilaious, more than I believed it to be a sound baseball move. However, as a ballplayer my whole life, sometimes someone has to stand up for thte team. Guess they should have watched the tape before the WS
Nothing wrong...
…with standing up for the team if it was necessary, but there are times you have to be patient and pick another time to get that done.
"I don't like them fellas that drive in two runs but let in three" Casey Stengel
That one showed Barret's...
…stupidity. He chose to ingnite the Stros when they were basically dead in the water. From that point on, they woke up and caught the Cubs for the wild card.
"I don't like them fellas that drive in two runs but let in three" Casey Stengel
I'll just say this...
…although Barrett could hit a little bit, the man was not blessed with any degree of baseball instincts and he showed this time and again behind the plate and on the bases.
You can thank Lou for telling Hendry to get him out of here.

Fukudome’s homer wasn’t far enough (just down RF line), and DeRosa clearly isn’t doing enough to carry the team right now. And Harden allowed some hits, which is inexcusable.

the key is the loss column
going into today’s game, the Brewers are 5 back in the loss column
they can be 6 back after today’s game
teams cannot give back losses; they have to earn wins

Those fail pictures are priceless!
Great to see Harden be untouchable again. That acquisition is definitely paying dividends. DeRosa continues to be a machine, and good to see Kosuke have a good at-bat. Maybe this helps turn him around.

Too bad the Brewers have an off day tomorrow
