And the Padres drop the soap. With Braun, Fielder, and Hart up, this one ends here. Oh well, as bad as the Cubs have looked, they deserved to lose some ground eventually.

 

because they've scored every other time those guys have come up this game

 

Its still the heart of their lineup and a powerful one. Just because they havnt gotten the job done yet this evening doesnt mean they wont.

 

I don't think it's as powerful as you think it is.

 

They have power in the SLG sense, but I'm a bit surprised the OPS numbers for the middle of the Brewers order arent higher than they are.

THEY DON'T WALK

 

Seriously, sooner rather than later this will catch up to them. You can only skate by on physical talent for a certain period of time. I can't wait until Ryan Braun starts to age and puts up 5 years of .290 OBPs in a row

 

unfortunately thats not for another 10 years

Catch up to them how?

 

It's not like they are one of the top scoring offenses or something.

That's what I mean. They hit a lot of home runs but the overall numbers are nothing special. Doesn't Corey Hart have like an .820 OPS? Fielder has to be creeping towards the mid .800's too.

Yeah I'm not sure why everybody talks like they have some epic offense of something. They're like the 2004 Cubs

This NL Central race is becoming really epic.

 

They just don't make races any better.

 

This is like watching the Special Olympics.

 

Everybody's a winner!

 

but they're still [expletive]

 

/sorry, had to

I find that hillarious. However I can't laugh right now because I just put my head threw a window after that last inning.

5th in the NL in runs? Yeah they do ok, they certainly are better than the 2007 Cubs. Also even if they aren't elite it doesn't mean the bottom can't fall out and they just turn completely awful
