i'm pretty sure that soto will end up with a good batting average if his LD% stays at 99%

I hate Milwaukee, I hate Houston-- I'm just gonna issue a blanket statement of hatred for the entire rest of the division. Stop playing your best against us you soap dropping sons of bitches.

[SABR Gamer]

Our extremely good defense is so valuable...oh wait.

They're not playing their best, the Cubs just aren't that good

[Guest]

[ChiCubsFan]

player of the game for the stros shoulda been soriano. So this loss puts us at 1-4 basically.

Or maybe it's the fact that Milwaukee isn't that bad and we always play down to our competition.

[PrimeTime]

Damn you Soriano and DeRosa for that crappyass defense

[JeffH]

It's OK, folks.

 

Baseball Prospectus says we're going to win 94 games.

He took the first pitch, which was a ball, for called strike 1.

Win is ours if not for those two plays.

[PrimeTime]

Soriano seems real cocky to me and all careless..Anytime a ball is hit to him he's all slow and sloppy to it..Like he thinks he's all that and all fragile crying about the wall in left, also he swings at every dman pitch he sees thinking it's going out

[Tyrant]

Our extremely good defense is so valuable...oh wait.

 

That doesn't make any sense. Wouldn't today's game show that playing good defense IS valuable?

[Derwood]

No, I was commenting on the fact that the good defense didn't even decide to show up today.
