8/23 Braves (Wisler) @ Cubs (Hammel) 1:20, WGN

[squally1313]

Lost in the Dong Party is Hammel putting together a pretty good start. Granted, against the Braves collection of made up players, but it's a step in the right direction.

Before that Montero HR the Cubs last HRs were hit by 8 different Cubs. Awesome

CUBS are 37-14 (.725) when they draw 4 or more walks.... 33-37 (.471) when they don't

random thought...have we had joe buck do a game this year?

 

wasn't he the one ripping the cubs last year and saying they'd never get good or the rebuild would never work or whatever?

[Guest]

Hey David, wish you were at this game or were yesterday's dongs satisfying enough?

 

I think I'm going to have to miss a lot of dong parties in the next few years, fortunately

 

Having a good time, I assume?

 

Oh yeah. Seats are great. I miss the leg room of the front row but you were right about the sight lines. Just high enough to not get blocked by anyone walking by.

 

Haha, yeah, wasn't sure if it'd be an issue for you but it's def nice for me compared to last year's seats.

If Hammel gives up a base runner Joe should come and try to take him out just to see what Hammel's reaction would be.

Braves pitchers needed more than 100 pitches to get through 4 innings.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS seeing 4.00 P/PA through 4 innings.

[UMFan83]

I think Kluber is trying think of some arm fatigue related excuse to miss tomorrow's start

[Fred Hornkohl]

Oh, horse feathers !!

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Yeah, Joe Buck was ripping us a new one after the Samardzija trade on some random Fox game last year, right after the trade. He went on and on about how (paraphrasing): We needed to get guys that knew how to win and not trade them away. How can we build around these young guys? It's more of the same. The way we are headed, we'll never be ready to compete. Yada yada yada

[ARCubsFan]

Ryan Lavarnway is still a thing?
