Yeah, if my years on message boards has taught me anything players only respond to a good stern yellin' none of this begging garbage

I think Joe seems so much more subdued these days because he tired himself out from all of the screaming he did.

And look at where all that screamin' got us!

[Derwood]

Urias sounds like Urethra+Anus

[Omar]

The Bears game is painful to watch. I was hoping it'd fill the 12-3 void. 3:00 can't come fast enough.

[soccer10k]

So on FS1, they're talking about Fowler being a key to the offense and pointing to his absence as a reason they slumped earlier. Meanwhile, they have a graphic showing 5.1 runs per game with Fowler and 5.2 rpg without him, next to showing the Cubs had a 2.68 ERA with him and 4.22 during the 38 games he was out. I wonder which one of those things mattered more.

Lmaoooooo

[Careless]

Were they not shifted for Rizzo?

[Tim]

They just announced that Russell is the first Cubs shortstop to get 80 RBI since Ernie in '61.

 

That's a long time.

[Derwood]

Nice pitch on Addison

[UMFan83]

I'm so used to Addy coming through in those situations that it's actually jarring that he didn't.

[Ski]

Gotta swing at that.

[Derwood]

Were they not shifted for Rizzo?

 

Not with a double play opportunity

[Cubswin11]

Are these called strikes to Soler and Russell as bad as game day is making it out to be?

[UMFan83]

Strike one to Soler looked bad. Strike 3 to addy looked legit

[NOLA]

Exhibit A on why this team shouldn't bunt. Lots of Ks, which makes outs more valuable. Lots of extra base power, negating the need to move runners over.

[Derwood]

And strike 3 to Soler was right down the middle

[Ski]

Maybe we can swing on hanging changeups down the heart of the plate?

 

Still, a run and 30 pitches on Urias who probably has a leash of 80-90 pitches isn't bad.

Cubs are really only middle of the pack in K%, and Zobrist is a prime DP candidate. With Russell as hot as he's been, the move makes logical sense.

[UMFan83]

So second half Hammel was just a month late
