[Cubswin11]

Welp, go get em in St. Louis. Overall good home stand.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

I would like to file a complaint against whoever broke Montgomery

Does he have options left? Maybe move him to Iowa for 2-3 starts when Butler comes back to get some regular work to figure things out.

Jesse Rogers leading the Darvish bashing charge on twitter like the troll he is. I get he hasn't been good but it's weird to see a "professional" writer be so meatheaded and irrational. It's annoying but Darvish has always had some blowout starts ever since he's been in MLB. Last year he had 10 starts of 5 or less innings and 7 starts of 4 or more ER, his stuff and velocity looks fine so there's really no reason to believe he's going to be a 8 ERA bum of a pitcher but Cubs twitter gonna Cubs twitter.

 

Counterpoint: He sucks and is bad.

no we all agree Jesse Rogers is terrible

[CubinNY]

Yuck!

[Irrelevant Dude]

I just saw a shot of Coomer in the booth. He has always been big, but geeze!

 

This is unrelated to your comment on his personal appearance, but the more I listen to him on the radio the more he feels like Ron Santo. Maybe a little more with it, and a little less of an unabashed homer with his heart on his sleeve, but definitely get the same overall vibe from him.

I have grown to like him more over the years. He isn't the best color guy around, but we could do a lot worse.

Ohhhh good. It wasn’t just Darvish it was our entire pitching staff that blew up

Yu Darvish is the Jesse Rogers of pitching. Or the Grant Brisbee of being bad at pitching.

Maybe he’s pulling a Gary Sheffield so he can get traded and start somewhere.

Having to go to St. Louis is a fair punishment for this performance.

Rickets should force them to go out for St Louis Pizza

 

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Just putting it out there: We're winning this.

 

I was really feeling myself after the 10-2 comeback, but this game and they Heyward article are all the confirmation I need to realize I am still a monster.

 

Not sure what happened in that Atlanta game.

It’s OK. Nobody is perfect.

I mean these bums should be shamed and feel bad over their putrid performance the last 2 days but we don’t need to poison or kill them.

[17 Seconds]

so much disappointment from this team

The offense deserves no mercy.

[BigSlick]

I'd totally eat that pizza

[jersey cubs fan]

I don't mind losing when you give your best effort, but this garbage is just unacceptable. It's like they aren't even trying.

 

Bring back the gifs in game threads, or at least theme snacks/meals.

[tfarks]

You suck darvish. Stop sucking.

Yeah, that game was just awful. I know there has been a lot of boring baseball this year, but this game was by far the worst. Horrible offense, defense, and pitching. Even when we've been in funks before, it seems like one of the three was there. There was no redeeming quality to that game. Garbage.

Yeah, I like trashing St. Louis as much as anyone but that looks good. I bet I would love me some Imo's.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

So we all agree the Almora/Javy 1-2 thing should never happen again, right?
