08/29 CUBS (Lester) @ Los Angeles (Latos) 8:10 CDT, WGN TV

[Guest]

When he holds the ball in his hand, Hunter looks a bit like the pitcher from the Gas House Gorillas. Just needs a cigar.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 3-1 (.750) when the opponent steals 4 or more bases.... 70-53 (.569) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Agony and Ivy]

Tommy Hunter throws the most meatballs I have ever seen from a pitcher

 

Not around for the Bob Howry days?

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 3-48 (.059) when they trail at the end of the 8th inning.... 70-6 (.921) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 16-35 (.314) when they allow 5 or more runs.... 57-19 (.750) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

This is some of the worst umpiring I've seen all year.

[Agony and Ivy]

I can't wait for LaStella to go away forever.

[Ski]

How the hell didn't Castro beat that out at second?

[Sammy Sofa]

This is all sontensei's fault somehow.

The La Stella hate is so weird

[Agony and Ivy]

Jesus strike 2 on Schwarber was an abortion.

He's terrible and is just a guy that does nothing for me as a player. He's also terrible in MLB 15 the Show which is where my hate for him began.

Bring him back IMO

[Ski]

[expletive] win tomorrow. We're not going to stumble down the stretch like this.

Holy [expletive], yes. I'm playing along with the season and in a part-time role the game has had him hit in to 14 DP's. It's insane.

Losing Soler has more of an effect than people realize because it pushes some bench players into starting roles and they are not starters by any stretch of the imagination; same thing happened when he missed the month of June

Russell, Rizzo and Schwarber all hitting kinda poopy over the last week likely has a lot more impact than Denofria getting a few extra AB's.

It doesn't mean a ton right now but we're only 1 game ahead of LA.
