6/22 Dodgers (Kershaw) @ Cubs (Wada) 7:05 PM WGN

[ScrubMD]

Kershaw vs Wada, Wada leaves in the 3rd inning, Cubs win 4-2, that's pretty awesome.

[Guancous]

Four runs on five hits. No errors on either side. Efficient.

[rawaction]

First 3 game win streak in a month!!!

[d_money]

Let's hope the gimmick known as Wada - is over.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Next we take down Grienke!!

Saw this one coming.

What a fun game! Hope Fowler is ok. Doubt Wada is.

i think the cubs are starting to get that wiggly feel

Kris Bryant and our bullpen just beat Clayton Kershaw and The Dodgers.

isnt that what juan pierre sang after the marlins beat us

[KrisBryantisaBeast]

Hopefully it's just a very mild sprained ankle for Fowler.

[sontensei]

as i said earlier if we beat grienke and kershaw we are for real GO CUBS!

Let's hope the gimmick known as Wada - is over.

 

Why? Yes he hasn't given them a lot of innings but part of that is because he he started the season injured and needed to stretch the arm out. Outside of 1 bad start he's been fine for a 5th starter, much better than Wood or EJax who would be the expected replacements unless Turner is ready to go. And even if it's turner theres a legit risk that he is worse than Wada

Awesome win, but Jesus, some of are you are talking like they're a terrible team who miraculously beat worldbeaters instead of the 38-30 Cubs beating the 39-32 Dodgers at home.

That's quite the bar to set

[UMFan83]

2009 Cubs high water mark was 9 games over so if we can get to 10 games over we will reach our high point since the 2008 Cubs and I believe the 2nd highest point since the 2004 Cubs.

 

Edit: 2007 Cubs peaked at 10 over

sure is

[Cubswin11]

Fowler would likely be out until after the ASG even if it's just an average ankle sprain. But I think the offense will be okay with a Coghlan/Szczur/Denorfia/Lake OF for the next 10ish days and then Coghlan/Denorfia LF/Szczur CF/Soler RF for the time up to the break.

Against a pitcher with an ERA in the 3.30s

 

Fake edit: ok fine his FIP is still 2.58

Yes? The guy who they have beaten before as a worse team and who is going to have plenty of beatable outings each year? It was just a good win!

[PrimeTime]

Season high 8 games over..Wooooooooooooo

He's an all-time great pitcher with a good lineup behind him. Beating Kershaw is a great regular season win. Especially against Wada and Wood.
