lol@Giants. They have to win with their replacement-level washed-up shell tomorrow, because otherwise they are facing getting swept with Arrieta on the mound Sunday.

That is a freaking fantastic lineup, and Lester isn't in to bat so the pitchers spot at least has some sort of chance of contributing.

Btw I haven't followed this close enough, why does Matt Cain suck now? Shoulder injury or something?

Yes, his arm exploded last year. Only 2 years, 49 million left on his deal.

Schwarber has a higher WAR than Molina.

I stopped wearing Cubs gear (except when working out) after getting swept by the Phillies because they always seemed to lose when I wore a Cubs shirt. Still haven't worn anything and as long as they keep winning, I see no reason to start.

I fully support irrational belief in good luck charms.

arrieta vs peavy

 

i like

[DiamondMind]

Peavy changed his delivery and has been pretty decent since he came back this year. It's irrelevant anyway, no one can beat Arrieta.

Guys, I think this offense is real. The Cubs are averaging 4.7 runs with Schwarber in the starting lineup. 3.7 runs without him in the lineup. Of course, his first start was the 17 run game in Cleveland, but without that game, they are at 4.05 runs/game with Schwarber starting and have only scored fewer than 4 runs in 6 of the 20 games he's started.

[bukie]

The Cubs are 50-20 this year when they score at least 3 runs.
