Even if they lose, hopefully they can provide a little pressure on Washington.

[TMan92]

Home Cubs are now Road Cubs. Up is down, black is white

 

The power of 11 over is way stronger. This team is just plain average. They are what they are.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Does Vic make it to second this inning?

[Schwarber Fan]

BDN needs to hit a wind beater here

[Bryants Disco Ball]

BDN needs to hit a wind beater here

 

I'd take a double.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

"He's been the best offensive player since he has joined the Cubs, arguably." - JD

 

Arguably?

[BigSlick]

corbs realy want to give the division away to an inferior team

[Schwarber Fan]

At least Heyward and Bryant made Ross work a little. Baby steps.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I feel like Anthony Rendon would have gotten a hit there.

 

Oh, well. We got a run!

[Schwarber Fan]

Not scoring here is ballgame.

[TMan92]

One positive that comes out of this season is that they blow this horsefeathers up. No concept of making contact at all.

[Schwarber Fan]

Happ to save the season?

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Will Happ swing at the first pitch after seeing a five-pitch walk to the guy ahead of him and kill the suspense right away?

[Schwarber Fan]

That’s a joke.

[TMan92]

That call was brutal.

[Schwarber Fan]

Joe has to get tossed. He can’t stay in the game over that.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Hell of an at bat by Happ!!

 

horsefeathering umps suck

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I can choose to be upset at bad called third strike, or I can be upset at the two guys prior failing spectacularly when they just needed to make contact.

 

Our offense sucks.

[OleMissCub]

Robo umps please.

[abuck1220]

you could 5000% tell that ab was gonna end with a horseshit strike 3 call

[Schwarber Fan]

Also, Happ needs to be in the lineup. He gives you a better at bat than half of these clowns.

[UMFan83]

Well if we don’t come back this will be our 2nd home series loss of the season. Also our last true road series win came against the Nats.

 

I was having a bad day and forgot all about this game. Then I was hoping it might pick me up but nope

[TMan92]

I can choose to be upset at bad called third strike, or I can be upset at the two guys prior failing spectacularly when they just needed to make contact.

 

Our offense sucks.

 

That inning pretty much finished me with Schwarber. Adam Dunn clone.

[UMFan83]

Nats are kind of like how we should have been. Start with a very good core, sign free agents like Scherzer and Corbin who actually perform at or above expectations, manage to develop star talent during their run of contention (Turner, Soto, etc), good enough to afford losing a core player and not miss a beat.

 

Now I’d take the Cubs run of winning a World Series and the playoffs 4 years in a row over the nationals never making it out of the NLDS and miss the playoffs seemingly every other year but I can’t help be jealous with how they are built
