4/14 Reds (Iglesias) @ Cubs (Hammel) 7:05 CSN

[soccer10k]

Another enjoyable outing for the Cubs as they secured their third straight series win to start the season. With Baltimore's loss, the Cubs are now tied for the best record in the majors.

 

Iglesias is a good young pitcher who had a couple solid starts against the Cubs last year (12 2/3 IP, 9 H, 7 BB, 4 R, 18 K's). Looking for Hammel to give us another good start and help the Cubs earn the sweep.

[Little Slide Rooter]

We could very easily be 8-0. But I guess I'll take it. It shouldn't also be noted that as a team, we have 48 BB. As in taken, not given. I feel as though we've gone months, if not years without 48 walks.

did we destroy all their pitchers so they signed Enrique Iglesias to pitch?

This season feels like that one montage in Moneyball where everything goes right and the team is taking a ton of walks. Edited April 14, 2016 by Omar

[BigSlick]

I do enjoy making every opposing pitcher into a nobody

[Liam Neeson]

He is a good pitcher but I can't let a good opportunity to post Enrique Iglesias gifs go to waste.

Is only Fred allowed to give the answer?

 

 

 

May 16th they went to 21-15 after beating Pittsburgh.

I remember how sick I was of the win 3, lose 2 crap and how I just wanted us to get to five over so bad.

 

on may 21st we hit 23-17.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Raisel Iglesias is good. But he's not so good that Javier Baez would remember his name if they were on the same team. Advantage Cubs. 8-2. 7 walks and 2 dongs.

[Bobson Dugnutt]

I'll be in the bleachers tonight. Win Cubs.
