[SouthSideRyan]

If you thought we donged a lot against well rested pitchers imagine facing an old man on short rest with the bad juju of leaving his cancer stricken wife. DONG DONG DONG DONG DONG DONG DONG

FINISH THEM, CUBS!

[davell]

Can't [expletive] wait! Make them weep.

[Outshined_One]

 

Crush. Kill. Destroy.

[wvcbxl]

Finish them and show no mercy doing so.

 

Ride the SSR wave!

[itisallpartoftheplan]

After having to watch Arrieta give up 4 runs we deserve a great outing by Hammel to balance it out!!

[Fro]

I'm calling Lackey getting chased in the 2nd inning. Big game from Rizzo.

 

Lots of walks and dongs.

This ends today.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

I need more dongs. I can't be satisfied unless there are at least 4 more tonight. Finish these fools. Make Matheny look stupid for bringing Lackey back early. This one needs to be a laugher.

[Boris]

Break their will. Make it hurt.

Fangraphs really likes the Cubs right now. Over 50% chance of reaching the World Series.

Can we reach out to Lackeys ex-wife and convince her to sit behind home plate wearing a Cubs jersey?

[Guancous]

The Cubs could have a record 10 games better than the AL representative.

 

They won't get home field advantage in the playoffs because Mike Trout went HAM in a July exhibition game.

 

(A game Jake Arietta was not invited to.)

I want more games in the AL park anyway. More hitters in the lineup more glorious glorious dongs.

 

Also since I moved from Chicago to Austin if it's the Astros or Rangers involved that would be ok too.

The good thing about not having HFA is games 3, 4, and 5 are at home, if they can sweep or go 4-1.

Right next to the orange Marlins fan.

Another good thing about AL parks with our team is. Schwarber.

Nah, that could motivate him ...

[squally1313]

I'm praying the Internet comes through with the scene from the dark knight where the joker asks that cop how many friends of his he had killed.

 

But with dongs.

He'd just ignore her like he did when she had cancer.

There are like 4 other names you could put in place of Schwarber and I wouldn't be mad.

Yea, at this point our actual worst fielder hasn't made an out.

[rawaction]

Yeah, the Cubs probably aren't going to destroy Lackey. I don't think the short rest will matter much. I think a bigger factor will be seeing him in Wrigley and for the 2nd time in 5 days. If you're expecting 4 dongs, you're probably going to be disappointed. If you're expecting 4 runs off Lackey, that is a longshot too, IMO. Cubs still close this out tonight. But I'm thinking it's going to be a low scoring game.
