I liked when Fowler and Zobrist were infallible. That was fun.

[illiniguy]

Why did we have to have this "slump" against these shitbags?

[BigSlick]

I hate the Cardinals

 

I hate the Cardinals

 

I hate them so god damn much

 

I hate that Aledmys Diaz was finally becoming Aledmys Diaz and then we become the only source of hits that he's had in several weeks

Why did we have to have this "slump" against these [expletive]?

There's a pretty good chance we are at least playing for a series win today if a wild pitch doesn't inexplicably manage to hit an ump in the leg Monday. Just because we're way better than STL doesn't mean they're going to stop getting ludicrous breaks, I guess.

[Agony and Ivy]

Throw strikes Jake.

[Banedon]

Stop walking people Jake.

[UMFan83]

Seriously though are we allowed to be a little alarmed about Jake even though he's still barely giving up runs?

[apete6]

Don't shoot the messenger, but a loss of control is usually an early sign of arm injury. The velocity loss comes later.

 

I want to kill myself for even typing that sentence.

[Thed Hoyerstein]

this has been a frustrating series

[CubinNY]

horsefeathering horsefeathers god damn it.

[Andy]

Rizzo has made that pick about a million times and I've never seen him flub one, so yeah, of course it happens now.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

farts

[BigSlick]

I don't feel *that* bad, obviously. This is just a blip. I'm just the Ron Burgundy looking at this series and being "I'm not even mad, I'm impressed."

[Liam Neeson]

ballgame?

 

lol? Its the bottom of the 5th inning.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Just a rough afternoon all around so far.

[UMFan83]

Well this has not been a good week for the Cubs so far :( Hopefully the bats can wake up and our middle relief can hold them.

 

The most important thing is Jake still not looking like himself

[Banedon]

We should be able to score on this hump....I"m more upset about the 0 on the board than the 2.

Always seek out the positive in any situation. If true, at least we didn't sign up to an extension?

Smack yourself in the head. Jake has historically had control problems. It's the reason Baltimore let him go.

[Banedon]

One of those runs is earned because you can't assume the DP, is that right?
