3-0 Hawks

[Schwarber Fan]

Both conf finals going to a game 7. Great for the NHL.

REMOVE THAT [expletive] POST RIGHT NOW RONDON FAN.

[Sammy Sofa]

Mmmm-hmmm. He's one hunk o' man.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Consistently not scoring runs is getting kind of annoying.

[George Hayduke]

I guess we should be lucky that was only one run?

[treebird]

3-0 Hawks

 

i hate to think how much positive chicago sports karma those ice-eating rubes have wasted in the last few years

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I really like the new Lake, and want him to get more PT

 

Where is this new Lake? The guy has been terrible coming in to tonight.

 

I will say he does look more patient at the plate.

 

Limited sample size, sure, but if he is more patient it hasn't manifested into anything beyond diddly-squat at this point. His numbers stink and there's no real BABIP outlier.

 

Understood. I am a believer in the process, though. So if he does show better selection at the plate (agreed, way too small a sample size) then better numbers have a chance to be produced.

 

That said, I'm not defending Lake. Just a small observation of his early at-bats.

We knew it was going to be a tough home stand. That's why losing 2 of 3 in Arizona was especially tough. I like our chances of winning the KC series though.

Fair enough.

More Starlin fun

[ARCubsFan]

Starlin's WAR gonna hit -1.0 at some point?

bryant's hair looks worse than ever

It does, but he can go full Road Warrior Hawk as long as he keeps hitting home runs.

Not yet...boss

 

3-1 after 2

 

That penalty to give the Ducks the power play they scored on was BS though....especially considering some of the crap they have let go(head hunting Keith on MULTIPLE occasions for starters)

[OleMissCub]

Not feeling too good about our chances the rest of the night. The freaky eyeball pitcher is too damn good.

[Guest]

I can't remember if it was strike 1 or 2, but it was terrible.

don't have a chance in hell if that's going to be the strikezone now

[TruffleShuffle]

this is boring.

[treebird]

everyone try to intentionally hit foul balls until they have to take this guy out

[Schwarber Fan]

Time to blast one, Junior.

[woodchip2153]

I take it back

[treebird]

ball in the baseline alert

[TruffleShuffle]

hey remember when those outside pitches to span were strikes? like a half inning ago when fowler was batting?

[TruffleShuffle]

"strikes" 1 and 2 to fowler:
