[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 2-0 (1.000) when they get HBP.... 2-1 (.667) when they don't.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

Is there a way we can pressure MLB into doing 5-8 game series, so that we can reap the benefits of depleting team's bullpens instead of just setting up whomever teams player after they face the Cubs?

We're reaping the benefits of having a horsefeathering awesome offense. Who gives a horsefeathers if they're tired or not?

SSS alert: Zobrist K rate: 21%

That's the first 8th inning run the CUBS have scored all season.

You might be happy going 161-1, but I want to do that and win some games by attrition forfeit. Aim high you horsefeathering horsefeathers eating [self edited].

We just need to hope that the opposing bullpens arrive already tired, so we can then make things completely miserable.

I think it was nice to get one of the West Coast trips out of the way during a time when the travel wasn't far and they had been living in that time zone for a month.

Yeah, plus we didn't have endure any rain-outs (or snow-outs).

Sole possession of first place at stake tomorrow night between the 5-1 Reds and 5-1 Cubs

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Ramirez looked pretty solid. I think he can survive at 94.

 

Another nice win. The offense keeps rolling. The pitching has been fantastic. 5-1. Keep it going back at Wrigley.

[Schwarber Fan]

Turn on MLB network. Biggest takeaway from first week. Kyle Schwarber's injury. Turn off MLB network. We're 5-1. This team is amazing.

[raw]

5-1 on a west coast trip. How can they not win 125?

[bcl412]

It feels like Arietta didn't pitch well but he allowed 3 runs and hits a homer to top that off. I like him.

[Sammy Sofa]

Kicking off the Home Opener 5-1?

I think you're confused, I love La Stella, any sarcasm is poking the weird contingent of people who hate him irrationally

 

Sounds like two sides of the same irrational coin.
