I want to catch Albert’s 700th this year.
August 22, 2022 at 8:45 pm #197106Haha…I’d say he’s locked in tight, Pugs!
August 22, 2022 at 8:45 pm #197107Saw on broadcast that has homered off 449 pitchers. Tied with Bonds for most all time.
August 22, 2022 at 8:47 pm #197108Pujols is as amazing in his last year as he was in his first!!
August 22, 2022 at 8:49 pm #197109Albert HAS to at least think about playing one more year. Yeah, it’s nice to ride off in the sunset on top, but like my father used to say…..”you never ride off into the sunset with a full tank of gas”…….and Albert’s tank is spilling over.
August 22, 2022 at 8:57 pm #197110I don’t think Bader has played yet
That’s right, Pugs. He was on the 30 day DL with 2 months left. Leaves him some time to meld with his outfielders
August 22, 2022 at 8:59 pm #197111Surprised the Cubs handed the ball to another LHP with the monster still lurking in the dugout.
August 22, 2022 at 8:59 pm #197112I wish the cubbies had 3 or 4 more lefties slated to start in this series. They could be Steve Carlton, Lefty Grove, John Tudor and CY Young…..it really wouldn’t matter because Albert would drill them.
August 22, 2022 at 9:04 pm #197113I’m gonna say something I never thought I’d utter: I don’t remember the last time Albert GIDP
August 22, 2022 at 9:06 pm #197114LeGrand…4th inning.
August 22, 2022 at 9:06 pm #197115Amazingly, it looks like we don’t lose much defensively with Albert manning 1st base. Is it possible to have two GG 1st base recipients on the same team in the same year?
August 22, 2022 at 9:07 pm #19711616 straight set down by Montgomery, as we head to the 9th in a 1-0 St. Louis ballgame.
August 22, 2022 at 9:08 pm #197117Pugs…Albert has two GG’s I think.
August 22, 2022 at 9:09 pm #197118LeGrand….4th inning
Haha…… hilarious, TD!!
August 22, 2022 at 9:09 pm #197119Montgomery with 88 pitches after 8. Good chance at a complete game.
August 22, 2022 at 9:09 pm #197120Montgomery should get a shot to finish this one!!

Participant693 pretty good. I said at the start of the season that I felt if given opportunity Albert could get to 700. Now I don’t think he’s been given full opportunity but he’s taken full advantage of what he has been given. Monty pitching great tonight as well.
August 22, 2022 at 9:09 pm #197122Let’s see the big kids soften up the cushion.
August 22, 2022 at 9:10 pm #197123LeGrand…4th inning.
DOH! I missed the 4th and 5th (watching Jed and Jethro rasslin’ a gorilla)
August 22, 2022 at 9:12 pm #197124I know this game isn’t over yet, but if it ends 1-0 and you HAD to award one and only one game ball. Who gets it……Albert or Montgomery? That’s a toughie, but I think I’d have to flip the ball Montgomery’s way.
August 22, 2022 at 9:12 pm #197125I’m sure quite a few are already aware of this, but if you take a look at the all time leaders in GIDP’s 9 of the top 10 are HOF’ers.

ParticipantWell you have to have played a long time and put a lot of balls in play to hit into a lot of double plays.
August 22, 2022 at 9:15 pm #197127missed it….. watching Jed and Jethro rasslin’ a gorilla
LOL Carter!…..is this comedy central? I don’t know when I’ve laughed as much on a game thread.
And there’s another Albert DP that Carter may miss……. probably watching Thurston Howell III being revived by Lovie waving a wad of $100 bills under his nose on Gilligan’s Island.
August 22, 2022 at 9:16 pm #197128all time leaders in GIDP’s 9 of the top 10 are HOF’ers
THAT’S interesting
August 22, 2022 at 9:16 pm #197129Wonder what cap Albert will have on for his HOF plaque?
