according to this guy, the cubs (who have hit like 11ty balls 150 mph) have looked like [expletive] and lackey has been awful and the cardinals are just swinging at junk

 

From the next page

 

0-38 against Cubs and pirates and .777 ball against the rest of baseball still gets us to around 95 wins.

botched rundown aside, Miggy has had a pretty nice game

shouldn't Rondon be getting more work? 3.0IP in 13 games (that's assuming he doesn't end up having to come into this one).

 

They're in the early portion of 28 games in 29 days, I imagine that workload for the best reliever on the team won't be something that's an enduring issue.

good game, fellas

I hope every Cubs/Cardinals game is like that. Maybe with a few more dongs

In 3 road games thus far, the Cubs have outscored opponents 20-1.

I'd like the 5 runs to come earlier so I'm not quite as frustrated

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Let's sweep them and never look back.

How surprising would it be if Cahill got starts this year? 10 is extremely and 0 is not at all. 4?

10, considering the Cubs starters have gone 13 for 13 in quality starts so far, and Cahill is about 4th in line to replace a starter should they need one.

why would that be surprising?

 

ideally, no, but i think that the likelihood that the 6th or 7th SP on your depth chart gets a start at some point is probably better than 50%

after warren i would rather see cahill get a start than the rest of them

We leave Busch in first! Okay it's April but still excited.
