hey the brewers remembered they're the brewers

[ctcf]

[Ski]

Karma.

[halplm]

I don't even know what to think any more.

[sneakypower]

this is Fowler HR Rox game all over again

[Schwarber Fan]

Would be great if Montero just unloaded

[Guest]

lol Gomez makes that catch, that's about right

[Ski]

It just wouldn't be right if the Cub got too many breaks in one inning.

[Gilby]

I wonder if Bryant's K's and weak contact lately will make pitchers want to challenge him more. That's when it could start raining dongs.

snowconed it too

yep.

[Guest]

every time I think I can't love Len and JD any more, they go and do something like make Ned Ryerson references.

[Fred Hornkohl]

I'm just going to say it. This team plays better at night.

 

Total agreement

 

 

CUBS are 8-4 (.667) under the lights.... 5-5 (.500) in the daytime.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Little Slide Rooter]

That was swell. Now let's score another run and not let the Brewers. And we can temporarily avoid running for the razors.

[CyHawk_Cub]

Hammel hasn't been great, but he's keeping them in it at least.

 

Castro w/ a 6-3 groundout might be the most predictable thing ever right now

[Careless]

Yes, his failing increases the likelihood of future success.

[SpongeWorthy]

How many meatball pitches are we going to roll over, wiff, or get under this series

[itisallpartoftheplan]

The Cardinals have scored 3 runs not counting extras in their series vs Pittsburgh and they are going to sweep them. Shocking.

[Ram1380]

I don't even know what to think any more.

 

yep.

 

 

Exactly.....can't believe the dog squeeze that Soler continues to swing at lately.....then he doesn't even make an attempt to beat the throw on the pass ball(I would bench his ass for a game or 2 if we had anything remotely worth putting out there). Castro and his DP balls.....CC running in quick sand in the OF<----this is the most frustrating to me.....how is he THAT bad..... slow footed, terrible jumps and angles...?

i'm okay with them sweeping the pirates

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 10-1 (.909) when they get a quality start.... 3-8 (.273) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

The ball didn't get very far behind the catcher. It was only important that Soler force a throw so Fowler could for sure make it to 3rd. It's for the best if Soler doesn't run 100% every time.

[Schwarber Fan]

I trust Rosscup, but pulling him for Jackson, Schlitter (if he was still here) or just about anyone but Strop or Rondon would really tick me off.

[Derwood]

Not quite sure what happened to Hammel in Oakland, but I'm glad we got our version back this year

[CyHawk_Cub]

Rosscup has been a revelation to me; nicely stabilizing the non-Strop/Rondon part of the bullpen
