Guess we shouldn't add Wisconsin/Northwestern or Marquette/DePaul to that.

One last Javy K to end the year.

[UMFan83]

And Baez ends his season with a bang - K #95

[Gilby]

lol, I think Rizzo just admitted to the ump that he should be out.

[Cubswin11]

Can only imagine the outcry if Starlin or Javy would have done that

[Sammys Boombox]

Last inning on WGN. The sentimental side of me is kind of sad.

[Guest]

So the HBP on a swing and miss third strike with two outs is a dead ball then? Otherwise Rizzo would have been able to run to first.

[treebird]

kind of rooting for a blown save and 15 innings. i miss the cubs already

Yeah it's a dead ball. Judging by the ump's reaction, he didn't know it hit him until Rizzo said something.

seriously. first time i can say that i was left wanting more since 08 or 09. can't remember exactly how i felt about the 09 season toward the end. hung around for a while but then totally fell off the map in aug and sept, iirc.

the umpire didn't make the out motion until rizzo stepped towards the dugout, which i interpreted to mean rizzo could have run to first and wasn't out until he moved toward the dugout and gave himself up.

2010 was kind of that way, I think.

Given Javy's adjustment and Starlin's injury, I'm ready for it to be over so the offseason moves can start.

i think 2010 was the reverse

Less than 90 losses!

 

Next year less than 80 losses

 

The year after, World Series championship.

[Gilby]

I love Rondon.

[Guest]

Last day of the season is always a little depressing. I'm so excited for better things to come.

[Fro]

Will be interesting to see what Kasper says about the TV situation in the next few minutes.

 

I guess there's still a few Bulls game left on WGN America, but feels like the end of an era for da Superstation WGN.

[PackLandVA]

Where will they pick in the draft? What is the tiebreaker with the Phillies and White Sox?

[bukie]

They'll pick 9th, after the White Sox but before the Philles.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

hey we still got a top 10 pick yay

Wow, this feels much more like a merciful ending to me. I'm always sad when baseball ends, but this team seemed pretty burnt out by the end. Soler, Rizzo, Arrieta and Hendricks were like the only ones worth watching most of the time.

It was kinda underwhelming to say the least. Most of us were expecting some retrospective of all the highlights that the Cubs had on WGN. To walk away like this without a mention was terrible. Bozo's Circus got a bigger send-off.
