oh you're backing down off the Olt pole again?

Freddy, booby, you're our white knight. Cubs are going for their first three game win streak in 72 years and game game starts in a couple hours. Where's the thread.

A .762 OPS is success. Unsustainable success. But success nonetheless.

Not when it's accumulated in a way that highlights the limitations of OPS.

 

Sheesh, his wOBA jumped overnight though. Nevermind.

Back on the pole.

you keep going up and down like that and he's likely to go blind again.

Somehow the Cubs have convinced people that this 100 year thing is a thing that matters and is worth being a premium ticket for a Wednesday April day game...I'm amazed. I never gave more than 5 seconds of thought to going to this game.

 

Looks like the area is pretty packed right now.

well, I am paying more attention than I would for any other mid-April day game, but that probably has more to do with 2 wins than 100 years.

I considered going for the jersey but upon further reflection realized it would probably be huge and any 30,000 other people would have the same jersey as me making me look like a tool whenever I'd wear it to a game

Shocked at the size. That patch is hideous though

I didn't realize this was the actual birthday until yesterday, which makes my ticket search for this series make a lot more sense. I would've preferred the day game even without the giveaway and festivities, but not for 6x the cost.

This is one of the few games this year I actually could make some fat money on so I sold them janks in a heartbeat.
