9/8 Cubs (Hammel) @ Cardinals (Wacha) 7:15 PM CST, CSN

[Fred Hornkohl]

Cardinals have been outscored 22-1 in their last 2.5 games.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[bukie]

They've definitely overachieved to a point, but they've sustained it for 140 games. I just hate when people try to simplify things down to luck, instead of giving players credit for their performance. Seems like a lot of Cubs fans do it just so they can feel better about their team being a laughingstock for years. Boiling down the Cardinals being the best team in baseball down to "pixie dust" is stupid on so many levels.

 

Unsustainably good things can happen for 140 games, even across a whole team. Two years ago there were lots of Cardinals fans trying to explain their RISP hitting by crediting the approach, but not so much when it regressed the next year.

 

But yes, please tell Cubs fans more about how insecure they are in a game thread with a rival team on a Cubs website.

I'm not sure the level of condescension he's been displaying is sustainable.

Remember 1935 !

Lol @ the Nats. What a dumpster fire.

Coomer just said Pat has been doing games in STL for a long time with the Cubs 'and the Brewers'. Unless I'm much mistaken, Hughes never would have done a Brewers game in STL as they were in the AL until he came to the Cubs (and it was pre-interleague). Edited September 9, 2015 by Andy

Listen, if we're going to get on Coomer for that, we're gonna be here all night listing these things. And I like Coomer more than most.

[Brian]

JB!!!

[Gilby]

Ooo, I so thought Len was going to point out that Hank Aaron took PED's as well during their ARod conversation.

[ARCubsFan]

Whoa Javy

[fallacy]

I hope Bryant likes the outfield because Javy is taking third

[Sammy Sofa]

Baez looks slimmer than I remembered.

[CubInOK]

Why does our entire team make sexy defensive plays now?

[NOLA]

This is one of the best defensive infields the Cubs have started in years. Javy!!!

[ConstableRabbit]

Play all of the shortstops!

[chuckywang]

Yeah let's bunt our way out of a 6 run deficit.

[TruffleShuffle]
