4/25: Cubs (Lester) @ Indians (Bauer) 6:10 NBCSC

Kyle really could've stood to shorten up at least a smidge there

[Schwarber Fan]

I know Bauer is pretty nasty, but our bi-polar offense is so frustrating. Addy needs to sit for a bit when Zobrist is good to go.

[SouthSideRyan]

Len & JD are very good at their jobs.

We're second in runs in the NL with the least amount of games played. How do you think this is supposed to work?

[Andy]

What in holy hell was Rizzo doing there?

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Not Russell’s night, just a half step slow all over

They’re way up in there in RS rankings, despite playing 1-4 games less than everyone else, have scored at least 3 runs in 14 of their 20 games, 4 or more in 12 of them and over 8, 9 times.

Trying to backpick Lindor’s aggressive turn, and his throw was right on the base.

I agree. I get that YMMV, but I am amazed at how many fans I encounter who do not like the tv guys (seems like Len gets most of the grief IME).

I see the word "smarmy" or synonyms a lot from other fan bases. Admittedly it took me a little bit to warm up to him but I can't imagine anyone else doing the games now.

[Schwarber Fan]

Oh well. Hopefully we pound Milwaukee.

[squally1313]

Cubs go on the road to a surefire division winner, split the series and score 11 runs in two games in nasty weather conditions.

 

Normal Cubs fan: Bench the shortstop, make the offense better.

We’re gonna sweep those frauds

Who says that solo homers can’t beat you?

this couldn't be timed better

 

Oh lorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrd:

 

In 2016, a turbulent period when law enforcement officials were under siege across the U.S., Bauer’s social conscience and benevolent side coalesced, and he bought a suite for 26 police officers who were in Cleveland for the Republican National Convention.

 

"Under siege across the U.S.?"

 

ESPN'S LIBERAL BIAS STRIKES AGAIN.

Weird; it's showing up as a broken image link for me, but it's the same damn image address. Stupid work script nonsense.

where is gam thread

[Cubswin11]

Sofa is the game thread sheriff so I’ll leave it up to him but someone should just throw up a GT since whoever is supposed to must have forgotten or not been on here in a day

[Aaron_Kennelly]

I think it's bukie's turn. But it's close enough to game time that we probably should just throw one up.

I'll throw one up, since I'm one of few here not scared of the VB's.
