WHAT THE ABSOLUTE HELL WAS THAT CATCH? WOW!

[JBears79]

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Now that was a mighty fine play.

I don't know whether to laugh at this or cry. Also, FWIW, when clicking to reply sometimes my browser will open up an ad and this particular one was for a behavioral health center and I find that amusing given the context.

Voluntarily being a fan of a Chicago sports team is probably a mental disorder.

Ridiculous effort by Happ! RIDICULOUS!!!

[Eeyore]

When they let Schwarbs go because they could put Happ in left I was a tad upset. I still am, but less so. 

[Crusader]

Whenever we feel like we’re winning by too much we gotta put Nate in.

[BigSlick]

are.... are the Cubs good? 

strange feeling, haven't felt this in ~8-9 years

[Illiterate Scholar]

He threw a lot of strikes. I didn't hate that appearance 

[We Got The Whole 9]

He's got 100 and 90, he's gonna pitch a lot.

They sure look good so far. It was important to play well in April this year in particular and so far so good

[Banedon]

Not sure why Seiya was sliding in feet first on that steal.

[Derwood]

Carson Kelly with his low key 1.600 OPS.

I wasn't expecting Shaw's speed to be in the 90th percentile of MLB. I was picturing his speed to be more on the Nico level.

[Eeyore]

Hopefully, Thielbar does better than Nibbler did yesterday.

[BKHoo]

The pen should be set up for tomorrow. Let’s get greedy. Let’s get a sweep. 

[JHBulls]

W!

Series W!

[BKHoo]

What a start for Boyd. 

[Cubs206]

What a beauty today was and a Happ web gem!

[CubinNY]

horsefeathers yea! I’ve been in the woods all day, nice surprise when I checked on the game. 

[CUBDOM4life]

We’re one catastrophic bullpen collapse away from being on a 7 game win streak. Loved the Boyd signing over the winter and I still love it now

[CubinNY]

Watching highlights. Love those uniforms

Pecota seems to think they are. The updated wins has them at 93 with no one else in the division at .500. Cubs total is second best in BASEBALL to the Dodgers. Maybe they are good🤷. Maybe Jed made some good signings (Boyd and Kelly) and found a few guys on a dumpster dive as well. 

[BKHoo]

Padres 7-2 and in third place!
