why even have a base stealer if you aren't going to steal home?

[Guest]

welp, you're on the list now Melancon

[Bryants Disco Ball]

i'm really disappointed with the last two at bats, no doubt.

[UMFan83]

Well that sucked. We need to mix in some hitters that don't strike out a ton

[BigSlick]

i gotta say as fake rallies go, this team hasn't subjected me to it with as much emotional swings as some previous cubs teams. this team just wins without much drama most of the time, which is nice

[Ski]

DON"T SWING AT [expletive], YOU [expletive] SCRUBS. JESUS.

[ctcf]

Welp, I would expect the game to be in PNC now.

[badger1679666666]

That curve is nasty stuff.

[Andy]

This whole striking out every [expletive] time we need someone to make contact us going to kill me.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

We'll ultimately be eliminated from the playoffs because someone will K in a big spot. :(

Please don't jump on t his guy. I think we're all a little peeved right now after seeing this [expletive] all season.

 

No we're not. We're happy that we have a team that is going to win 90-some games and go to the playoffs.

[Old Style]

dammit dammit dammit dammit dammit

[Aaron_Kennelly]

DON"T SWING AT [expletive], YOU [expletive] SCRUBS. JESUS.

 

lol

[Ski]

This whole striking out every [expletive] time we need someone to make contact us going to kill me.

Our strikeout rate is no worse with a guy on third and less than two outs, but holy [expletive], it feels like 75%.

[Guest]

putrid

[BigSlick]

stop being dinguses about strike outs you meatballs, christ almighty

[jersey cubs fan]

This whole striking out every [expletive] time we need someone to make contact us going to kill me.

yep, every time. That's why they've lost 90 games already this year. It's a travesty.

[ScrubMD]

Welp, I've run out of reasons to live.

[UMFan83]

For [expletive]'s sake, one of the biggest moments all season and of course it's a strikeout. Jesus [expletive] Christ.

 

How the [expletive] is that one of the biggest moments of the season. Christ

[Ski]

I apologize for the freakouts, but Christ, we need to execute in a huge spot like that. Imagine if this happens in the WC game.

[TMan92]

We lost this game due to a defensive failure that is happening a ton lately. Montero has to keep that ball in front of him on strike three.

 

That being said. I will take losing this game to Cole vs. in October. But, he was tough as [expletive] today and winning there with Arrieta or not, is going to be tough.

[jersey cubs fan]

We'll ultimately be eliminated from the playoffs because someone will K in a big spot. :(

Please don't jump on t his guy. I think we're all a little peeved right now after seeing this [expletive] all season.

yep, all season this team has failed to score and they suck cause they always strike out and that's why they were eliminated from playoff contention back on September 3rd. [expletive] travesty I tell 'ya

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Well that sucked. We need to mix in some hitters that don't strike out a ton

 

Nope. This is what we are: high-strikeout, high-walk, mega dongsmiths. Love it or leave it!

apologies kind of become meaningless when you're saying them over and over

[Irrelevant Dude]

Those were probably the last 2 guys not named David Ross who I would want up in that situation... But oh well, just rest some guys down the stretch and go win in Pittsburgh.
