I’m going to try optimism on for size...

 

BDJ is going to buckle down today and throw a CGSO.

Tomorrow is basically a neutral game, we win that and end the road series drought.

Tuesday we resume rolling at home.

 

Let’s do this.

[Schwarber Fan]

5 straight balls to start the inning and swing at a bad pitch for a DP...

[UMFan83]

If the Cubs lose today, they will project to a 59-103 team on the road and a 111-51 team at home

[CyHawk_Cub]

Lester also with a lackluster AB. The offense is fucked.

Lester also with a lackluster AB. The offense is horsefeathers.

 

Have a feeling it’s about to go on an upswing relatively soon

So long as the wind is blowing out and they can dong.

once they get back to wrigley field, AMIRITE?!

[UMFan83]

I honestly think this team has given up. Thursday in Philly killed the team.

Agreed. The Pirates are so bad that they almost fell into a win last night, but when they even blew that, that was the final nail. It's ovah.

[Schwarber Fan]

Lester pitching like he knows he can’t allow even one run. So as a result, big inning coming and that will be that.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Brault has thrown 95% 2 seam and 4 seams. This is the most pathetic display of hitting imaginable with that attack.

[Schwarber Fan]

Wow.

[PackLandVA]

Tuned in with the walk to the pitcher. Thought I stick out a couple of batters to see how far behind the Cubs would be at end of inning. Pleasantly surprise. Way to get out of it Jon!! Now a couple of hits/runs would be nice.

Remember when the Cubs scored 12 runs in the opening game of this trip and we wondered if maybe the Cubs had turned the corner on the road?

 

Since then:

 

2

1

6

2

1

5

2

0 through 6

 

Edit: yes pattern followers, they will definitely score 1 today and 4 tomorrow

Our SP doesn’t deserve the rest of the team

 

 

Edit: Bryant and our SP’s*

True but KB did make errors in consecutive innings. That said he is 100% of our offense today

[Schwarber Fan]

There’s no chance we won’t get wild Chatwood here. Absolutely zero.

[Cubswin11]

I think Chatwood has earned coming in a spot like this, I still don’t like it

[Schwarber Fan]

Maybe in order for us to overcome the road demons, we have to win a 1-0 game, getting out of a jam every inning.

[UMFan83]

Wow 3 straight innings getting out of 1st and 2nd, 0 out situations without allowing a run

[Cubswin11]

Chatwood for all time reliever

[Schwarber Fan]

Thank you, Pirates.

[cl smooth]

2-0! in favor of the CUBS!
