[We Got The Whole 9]

Hell of an AB by Tauchman. Just an all around gritty comeback.

[Outshined_One]

Go home, game, you're tripping on acid.

Wow. Great job fighting their way back into this one.

Hi guys. 
 

We should Buy. 

[Outshined_One]

I mean, sure, this team could make the playoffs by playing .667 the rest of the way because every other team decided to trying actively crapping their pants against the Cubs as a strategy.

[UMFan83]

Cubs offense has been really solid this month. Since 7/2, they’ve scored at least 3 runs in every game except 1 (where they scored 2 runs) and have scored 5+ runs in 14 of their last 20 games

[s2obed]

Offense is clicking. Love to see it.

Or maybe it hasn't. There is 10+ years of data on Marcus Stroman. Teams know he's not an ace but he's still a quality 2 and there's still plenty of interest in trading for him. 

 

Didn't you also infer we should have traded Bellinger early as well?

What Stroman has done the last 10 years has no bearing on what he has done lately,  no team gonna give up more for a guy who been struggling his last 6 or 7 starts based on what he done in the past.

Cubs aren't going to get as good a value for him now, then they would of gotten for him 3-4 starts ago.

I turned this game off.

WHAT IN THE ACTUAL HORSEFEATHERS HAPPENED!?

Remember those Cardinals teams that never, ever went away in the division races because they had magic pixie dust that turned garbage into gold and other teams would have obscenely dumb losses to them?

That's the Cubs, now.

It turns out the White Sox are actually a bad team.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Nice play by Mastrobuoni.  I can't believe I'm saying this, but he has done a pretty good job at 3B these past few weeks.  Who goes back to Iowa when Madrigal is ready, Wisdom or Mastrobuoni?  Or the dark horse and completely undeserving candidate, Amaya?

[SOFNR]

Oh yah. Some insurance from Happ.

[cl smooth]

Belli Bomb!

[SOFNR]

And Belli goes back to back. 

[PeanutPunch33]

Home run derby 

[UMFan83]

Fun stuff!

[cl smooth]

A ton of fights in the stands tonight 

[Irrelevant Dude]

In the pitch clock era, these 3.5 hr games now feel like they are 5 hours long.

[champaignchris]

Alzolay has pitched a couple games in a row. As strong as Leiter looked there, I’d bring him back for the 9th.
