8/12 Cardinals (Wainwright) @ Cubs (Arrieta) 1:20 CST ABC7

Oh please let this Soler be the real Soler

 

Regardless of whether he's actually good or bad, I'm guessing the Cardinals fans consider him a certified Cardinal killer.

Georgie is so much fun and when he's swinging a hot bat.

[UMFan83]

I see Jerome Williams is about the same as he was with us 20 years ago

 

I'm watching a grainy feed, is he still wearing puka shells around his neck?

[Ding Dong Johnson]

oops, I accidentally took a nap

After watching these glorious Dongs I had to repost this.

 

This was in the Cardinals thread. But, who care about the Cardinals anymore. This is all about Cubs Dominance.

 

 

Can someone figure out the Cubs record since the Phillies swept them last year & the Cardinals record from the same date?

 

Quick mental math so I might be off by a game or so, but:

 

Cubs: 118-60

Cardinals: 97-82

 

21.5 games

 

 

checks out. that's .663 for the Cubs.

 

If we finish this out today we are at 119-60 over 179 games.

 

Thats a 107.7 win pace. Round up to 108 cause that sounds friggin awesome and the Cubs have played at a 108 win pace over an ENTIRE season of baseball at 179 games.

 

& that was with a horrid month long stretch.

 

Hell they are at a 108 pace & I'd guess underperformed their pythag. They have probably been playing closer to a 110+ win team for around 180 games.

[Liam Neeson]

Jesus I forgot the Blue Jays scored 891 runs last year.

I am going to do something that makes absolutely no sense and remove the 5-15 stretch because I'll just pretend that like Javy forgot all our bench players names and it caused some disharmony that fractured the team for a month. Take that out and its 114-45 over 159 games, or a 116-46 pace over a 162 game season.

No, at my work using a stream that has not been approved for use by the MLB.

Imagine if Wilson & Soler keep it going with the rest of our studs. Heyward could just be our Designated Fielder & Offense wouldnt miss a beat.

he has and they haven't

[UMFan83]

Can we just lock it into stone now that The Logan starts every playoff game thread and then the Cubs send him a ring after they win the World Series?

[David]

GOOD LORD JAVY
