8/6 Cubs (Hamels) @ Royals (Juris) 7:15 PM CDT

[bukie]

Everything is fine.

[soccer10k]

Better sweep the Royals. 4-3 or worse in this stretch isn’t good enough.

[Schwarber Fan]

At least we don’t have to suffer through an off day. I’m kinda looking forward to watching games in a new park.

[BigSlick]

the royals can't score runs, they really can't, they have a pitiful 85 OPS+ as a team, and currently have no active player with an OPS over 800 - The Golden God Jorge Soler was their best hitter but he's now on the DL.

 

So that means only 1 of 2 things will happen: They will erupt to have multiple 10 run games, or the Cubs will shut them out 3 games in a row and the starting pitching will look amazing

[itisallpartoftheplan]

I hope you’re out 15 game winning streak guy! Got to make up for missing out on the game threads earlier!! Haha

[Cubswin11]

Sure would be cool if we went on a win streak

The Royals are literally the only team worse than....the Padres.

Maybe we’ll escape the series with a positive RD for the series, still probably lose 2 of 3

[Regular Show]

So I really don't want to be that guy, but the opposing pitcher's name is Jake Junis, not Juris.

 

Doesn't matter as long as we beat him.

Lmao Darvish

[Sammy Sofa]

Who the hell is the beefy dude in the white tanktop?

[Ding Dong Johnson]

since when is there a girl on the team?

[Brian]

Hendricks, Yu and Hamels right in a row are the best.

Cartini?

 

And of course Baez got even more gold necklaces than Strop.

LMAO. Nice try Darvish

 

Edit: You know what? He got the cap pointed slightly sideways (that annoys Redbirds fans to no end) just right. Good job.

So good...

[Sammy Sofa]

Unfortunately, that's the only time we'll ever see it happen.

[Sammys Boombox]

It is unreal how much Darvish looks like a kid that pitched on my high school team. Wearing ridiculous clothes with that facial expression almost gives me goosebumps. Exactly something I would expect from this guy. They’re so similar despite this kid not being Asian.

[Bobson Dugnutt]

good lord hamels. i can’t stop laughing.

[Bobson Dugnutt]

hamels doesn’t know strop that well yet so he just went with his own “backyard bbq” theme.

[Gilby]

Randy Bush making an unexpected appearance.

[imb]

i wanted to hate this getaway theme but the strop thing is too good. and happ is the real mvp

[Thed Hoyerstein]

hahahah this is the best themed trip, right?

 

I cannot get over how funny Hendricks looks. Can someone photoshop his outfit with the W flag in the background?

[bcl412]

Well if this theme and team doesn’t make us try not to suck than we are done for
