5/2 Cubs (Darvish) vs. Rockies (Anderson) 1:20 NBC Sports Chicago/MLBN

[minnesotacubsfan]

Rizzo is fixed

[UMFan83]

At least one of our guys knows how to use the wind to his advantage

[Sammy Sofa]

[UMFan83]

Yeah, we’re fine and all, but this sucks right now. Even with the wins that we piled up the last week.

Yeah, not worried in the least. Just frustrating when they obviously aren't playing well, but worst case scenario here is a 5-2 homestead and splitting the season series against the Rockies so yeah I guess you take that every time.

 

And going 14-9 over a 23 consecutive game stretch against teams over .500 (with 3 more to go)

[CyHawk_Cub]

I'm just glad the pitching stepped up huge during this stretch of putrid offense.

[Sammy Sofa]

[expletive], that Willson AB was like some kind of fever dream.

[Sammy Sofa]

Oh, OK; back to reality.

[minnesotacubsfan]

[expletive], that Willson AB was like some kind of fever dream.

 

And ruined by the Great Christian Hipster himself

[Cubswin11]

[expletive], that Willson AB was like some kind of fever dream.

Seems like we are always looking for something to "get a guy going" but hopefully that makes something click for Willy. That was damn impressive.

[Schwarber Fan]

Hopefully that Contreras AB is contagious.

[UMFan83]

1 pitch to erase 4 innings of Cubs offense.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

1 pitch to erase 4 innings of Cubs offense.

 

To be honest, one pitch to erase sort of a normal game's worth of production.

[Schwarber Fan]

Darvish sucks.

[Banedon]

Darvish has not been what I hoped thus far.

[UMFan83]

HRs hit during the 2 days of winds blowing out heavily:

 

Rockies: 6

Cubs: 2

[minnesotacubsfan]

Could be worse. We could have arrieta

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Figure it out, Yu, because I believe in Yu. And, really, we have six seasons with Yu, so it's important.

[CubinNY]

The O is in a funk right now, but Darvish is looking like a back of the rotation pitcher.

[Sammy Sofa]

More like Spew Darvish.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

The O is in a funk right now, but Darvish is looking like a back of the rotation pitcher.

 

We can't have that be the case until like the fourth or fifth year. Because if somehow you are right, paying Heyward and Yu a combined $40 plus million the next five seasons will blow.

[jersey cubs fan]

If darvish is starting, Yu in trouble

[Cubswin11]

Happ's not even close right not, just send him down.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

We seem to miss a lot of pitches while trying to make contact with them.

[Sammy Sofa]

Like, I know how they just won 5 games in a row, and yet I am still compelled to wonder how these idiots won 5 games in a row.

[BigSlick]

For a while everyone was kicking ass except for Rizzo. Now everyone sucks except Rizzo.
