Love them 2 out RBI hits 

[chibears55]

Ok guys, not a big lead but hopefully enough. 

Bring it home, ill be checking the score

[BKHoo]

Comfort has been solid today.  It’s nice having depth.

Please Alex Cohen, don’t be one of those douchebags who takes pictures of every single meal you eat and put it on social media.

Boyd is Captain Efficiency this afternoon! Great job sir - keep it going 👏 

[PackLandVA]

Off the bat, that last out looked dangerous! Whew!!

[BKHoo]

Boyd looks really sharp so far - his breaking pitches are moving.  Hopefully he can keep this up through the second time around the order.

Boyd with Miggy gave up only 3 runs in 31.1 innings this year.😄

WTH 🤦‍♂️

I wonder if when CC said PCA needs some rest due to being tired (totally understandable & of course they wouldn’t say this publicly), is in large part due to hearing all the MVP talk and lofty expectations? That’s a lot of weight to carry.

They’re definitely on the fortunate side of luck today but it’s also fun to think about how much better someone like PCA is out in center and how many of those balls he gets to that isbel didn’t.

I thought we were done with Starling Marte.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Jesus christ Matthew. Starling Marte?

Cubs are currently 10-10 on the year against teams 19+ games under 500.

Dansby that was an embarrassing swing.

More likely the fact that he runs full out whether he's an MVP candidate or trying to figure out how to adjust to break out of a slump. He just goes at 100% all the time. He's listed 6-0, 184. At this stage in the season he is probably losing mass.  

[PeanutPunch33]

that's a big run

[PeanutPunch33]

Happ doing what Happ does lol

[Geographyhater8888]

Brewering the horsefeathers out of the royals today.

[CUBDOM4life]

[Eeyore]
