I dont wanna hijack this page with my question,  just a conversation til the game starts..

 

I know, just letting you know there is/was a broader conversation going on about it in another thread if you wanted to check it out.  Unfortunately I'm not lazy enough to respond to you but I am too lazy to find the thread lol.  It was a discussion within the last 2 days.

Good start! 

[chibears55]

Let kick ass now that theyre buyers and take this division...

[CubsRule08]

Leadoff 2B for Nico

[UMFan83]

Damn, dude is good enough, doesn’t need an extra 4 inches of strike zone

[UMFan83]

Votto could be hitting 0-250 for the season and I’d assume he’s going to mash the Cubs. Certified Cub killer

[UMFan83]

3 straight hitters Stroman gets to 2 strikes on and they end up with a hit. Not putting these guys away

[WhyCantWeWin]

Stroman has been straight ass

[UMFan83]

On Stroman sucks

[Derwood]

Stroman is balls

[Dfan25]

Way to go Stroman 

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Should’ve traded Stroman before the London game.

[UMFan83]

ERA over his last 7 starts: 8.47

Stroman is tanking his performance so that he's forced to pick up his option for next year.  THATS how much he wants to be a Cub

[UMFan83]

OK that's one back

[chibears55]

I was about to write let get at least 1 back here...

Swanson 

[Derwood]

Morel can't lay off that down and away pitch

Yes, this is the biggest series of the year, so far. 

I've always hated the Reds. I can remember when they were good for a bit in the 90s and their fans would invade Wrigley. They were horsefeatherss. Marty and Thom Brenneman (who spells their name that way?) were horrible.  Kyle Farnsworth beat the horsefeathers out of Paul Wilson the same way the Cubs are going to take care of the Reds. De La Cruz is awesome though. 

Go Cubs

And their Nazi owner 

[CubinNY]

Did the Cubs trade for Jose Cuas? And BTW, who is Jose Cuas?

[CubinNY]

Stro has got to go on the DL or something 

[Derwood]

They're just dinking and dunking him to death here

[Bobson Dugnutt]

Stro is a wreck.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Needed a shutdown inning from Stroman and it didn’t happen.
