8/21 Cubs (Rusin) @ Brewers (Estrada) 7:10 PM CT CSN+

[C.C.]

Remember when people were suggesting the Cubs could be .500 in 2013 and ready to compete in 2014? I'm really starting to think those predictions overshot by at least 1-2 years...

2015 was always my year of picking for anything resembling any sort of competitive/.500 team

 

Or the lineups with Vitters and Jackson like it was a good thing. That's the downside of pretending you are a small market team. Such a crap shoot and we aren't a small market team. Please stop behaving like we are.

Cabrera is a worthless sack of [expletive].

No, he's truly not. He's got as good of stuff as anyone currently on our major league staff, not named Shark. Give him time.

Last time the CUBS hit 3 batters in a game.... Fri 11 May 2012 (3 HBP) in a 8-7 loss at Milwaukee

 

 

Go CUBS !!

If there's anyone who can take this band of not so loveable losers and turn them into a .500 team by next year, it's the guys currently in our front office.

Oh ok.

[haubrich91]

Rusin was ok. Nice debut.

Not going to happen.

I didn't notice this until now, but after last night, Rizzo's OPS dipped below .800 for the first time this season, so that adds to the fun.

I believe it was .788 going into Sunday.

If only there was a way for regular people to look up that stuff. Maybe like a reference site for baseball OR ANY OF THE OTHER 9000 PLACES IT CAN BE EASILY FOUND.
