7/27 White Sox (Ranaudo)@ Cubs (Hammel) 7:05 WGN/ESPN

[soccer10k]

This team has a completely different feel from last years team at this same date...almost cannot believe it but this is the Cubs so nothing is off the table

 

Yeah, it's worst because last year the Cubs just got swept at home by the Phillies.

Wait. I don't think so, right? Our offense just started to come around this time last year.

 

 

When did we sweep the Giants

[Agony and Ivy]

Oh thank god Heyward is back to being good ole 4-3

One year ago yesterday was the Bryant HR game against the Rockies. We lost one year ago today and then started our second half surge the next day

[itisallpartoftheplan]

It's ok guys, we're gonna get 4 here and feel good about it. =) go cubs go

 

Liar

[philosophizer75]

Well, optimism is not helping. Stop the presses.

[Little Slide Rooter]

The Cubs really have no interest in playing baseball this evening. To be fair, neither do the White Sox, other than this pitcher who's having the night of his life.

This is not the same Cubs team as they were in April and May. Why is April/May what the Cubs are and June/July is considered a fluke?

[PackLandVA]

Bet the Cubs could get some pretty good prospects for Chapman. Four days left!

Probably because a majority of this years roster was on a 97 win Cubs team that went to the NLCS last year.

To be accurate he didn't say anything about that. He simply said they have a 6.5 lead which is a fact for now.

[Little Slide Rooter]

If it makes anyone feel any better, the Mets just went ahead of the Cardinals. So I guess that's good.

[Ram1380]

Last years second half surge had cyborg Arrieta...flanked by a Schwarmachine.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Somebody reported that a while ago and you know what? It did make me feel better. I hope they finish it off.

why is june/july the real cubs and april/may a fluke?

 

wow. that was too easy.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Our goal this evening is to not be no hit by a spot starter.

 

Go Cubs!

[TruffleShuffle]

cubs gameday person going full troll; they just noted that ranaudo has as many wrigley field home runs as heyward this season.

[NotSoSober]

Nice outing for Hammel, score some runs and get him a win

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Let's make this the inning that everything turns around.

 

Dex and two MVP candidates. Get this horsefeathers done.

[USSoccer]

These guys suck right now
