10.0

[UMFan83]

CUBS Bullpen has now thrown 25.2 IP, and given up 4 runs for a 1.40 ERA.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

 

23.2 IP and 2 ER for pitchers who actually deserve to be in the majors.

Does anyone else get chills when you see the replays of Solers HRs and realize that he is going to mashing balls into those bleachers for the next 6+ years?

Why would you do this?

It should be obvious in context.*

 

*hint: it's sad.

That is not why he asked the question. This is a time for both rational and irrational exuberance. Take yer downerism to Cub Discussions. (Also, screw pitchers.)

so this is the type of game that hsould bring the random old posters out

[BCVM22]

Yee-haw.

I can't wait for Soler to be the third best hitter on this team

Burn Derwood.

We have our best relievers available and the Reds manager is probably dumb and will hold Chapman for some point where they have a lead.

Naa, you got it backwards. Game threads are home to all sorts of irrationality. Cubs discussion should be home to rational views.

Cubs bullpen last two days: 8.2 IP, 6 H, 0 BB, 8 K's, 0 R

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

holy [expletive] they won

[Little Slide Rooter]

I know it's only 6 games, but there's something magical about a .192 BA with a .750 OPS.

I [expletive] love when you do these. Please keep doing them.

Best post-game interview ever. It was like watching a hostage video.

 

i think he has like 5 phrases that he can say in english, all of which have to do with having fun and playing hard.

And his Spanish is riddled with communist propaganda, making the translator ' job really hard.

[Guest]

please please please Wrigleyville junk makers (the makers of Clement chin hair, Fukudome head bands, Maddon glasses etc. etc.), please start making Soler chains, how glorious would Wrigley look packed with everybody wearing giant gold chains?

So many Leon Durham memories.

[KaiserCesar]

As long as no home or opposing fans use the phrase 'chain gang' I am all for it.
