5/10 Padres (Vargas) @ CUBS (Lester) 7:05 PM CDT WPWR

[Cubfanintheknow]

All the runs. All the time.

 

Our Cubs.

 

Or the slogan for gas station burritos.

[ScrubMD]

Javy is so good. I'm so glad that he's good.

[weis21]

someone text montero to tweet something #wearebetter

[17 Seconds]

i can't imagine ever being more confident in a baseball team

[DurbanJer]

Hey. Screwing with run differential. Stop that.

[Ski]

Oh, whaddya know, top of the order is up again!

 

Swear we had them up last inning...

[UMFan83]

Things are going so well right now that I'm genuinely shocked when one of our pitchers gives up a HR

[BigSlick]

Damn, I get on the bus and miss the entire bottom of the 3rd inning.

 

I do like it when we bat around the order.

agreed. but then the dexter 5 pitch walk snaps me back to reality.

[17 Seconds]

does espn.com not have the rizzo scoring change yet?

[Gilby]

So obviously the babip will come down and he'll need to walk more, but are we to the point where we're pretty confident Javy is at least a 3 win player, or no? Again, the overall approach could still use some work, but his K rate, much like Bryant's, is making me giddy.

[BigSlick]

Honestly maybe I'm nuts but I would have liked to have seen where Heyward could get on that single too, the throw wasn't all that great and he was slowing down as he hit third.

[weis21]

lol video game mode

[BigSlick]

Honestly maybe I'm nuts but I would have liked to have seen where Heyward could get on that single too, the throw wasn't all that great and he was slowing down as he hit third.

Lol i'm stupid

 

This team is so silly good

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Sarcasm?

[Ski]

Ho hum

[fallacy]

Zobrist is going to end up with more RBI than Rizzo

[David]

Run differential game status reattained

[David]

Has zobrist broken a .900 ops yet

[BigSlick]

Zobrist is in God Mode right now

 

He's also almost at 2x BB-K ratio which is INSANE

[Hairyducked Idiot]

No. His underlying contact rate is still awful. If that keeps up, the k rate will follow.

 

Not saying I think he's doomed, but I'm not pretty confident in him either.

[BigSlick]

C'mon Jon, the run differential

[Cubbie Swagger]

Good thing we have 6 runs.

[BigSlick]

"Jabari Blash"?

 

There's no way thats a real person

[Ski]

Damnit Lester.
