[Ding Dong Johnson]

[Cubswin11]

Give Donaldson the Harper treatment this weekend

[Sammy Sofa]

CIBS STUNK.

[Brian707]

Happ gonna homer off of Happ today

 

 

[Aaron_Kennelly]

How about a complete game, Jake?

[Transmogrified Tiger]

I was at the Jays game last Sunday and saw Darwin Barney hit a home run. It's at that point that I realized that this season is just a video game where the difficulty sliders are way out of whack, which gives me a lot more serenity when the Cubs don't win.

 

Also I saw Josh Donaldson hit a ball farther than any I've ever seen in person, but that didn't warp my perspective of reality like Barney's wall scraper.

TIL: Darwin Barney is still in the major leagues

I have Happ on my fantasy team and I'm leaving him in my starting lineup because I know if I move him to the bench he'll throw 7 innings of 1 run ball. Hopefully the jinx works.

By far the worst thing about fantasy baseball is having players go against the Cubs. If at all possible, I try to always bench them.

When I have a guy like Castillo and he's going against the Cubs I start him in every league. If he gets smoked I'm happy, when he shoves well at least he helped me and it makes the loss less shitty.

[Cubswin11]

Well that's dumb

[Schwarber Fan]

Average team is actually average after all

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Dang it. Looked like it was going to be a clean and quick inning.

I think this is a fine take to have, but the timing is risky. Lots can change in a 1-0 game over the course of 8 1/2 innings.

Terrible take and timing.

Idk, I like our chances to win a game against a team that has Steve Pearce, Darwin Barney, Miguel Montero, Goins and broken/old Bautista playing today

[Cubswin11]

I hope Jake gets on base today and steals a base against Miggy

[Agony and Ivy]

This is now all I want today.

The Jays defense is something special this inning

[UMFan83]

Proud of Javy for making contact in a must make contact spot. Nice work, man.
