Last year you knew for sure game 1 was Boyd and Imanaga was game 2, that the difference. 

At least, both Boyd and Shota have been pitching better than the 2nd half of 2025.  And, we don't know who should start.  That means our SP's are better than last year.

Red Sox gifted us this game on a silver platter and they're just pissing it away

[Derwood]

Paez has knocked 8 runs off his ERA this game

[Geographyhater8888]

The Redsox offered to play 3 home games at Wrigley. They couldn’t give a horsefeathers less who wins.

This has been one of those low energy, low effort games I keep hearing about on September 25th every year.

You don't need to nibble against Kiner-Falefa.

Don't get it, just let the pud hit the ball.  Just another in a long line of garbage players transformed into short series superstars by the Cubs.

Nice to see they're entering the playoffs on one of their worst offensive stretches of the season. Thank god they squeaked yesterday out.

[JHBulls]

This sucks. We are one of those good-ish teams that can top out at 89-92, but can’t go to the next level. Way too many holes of the roster. 

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

how does he lay off that, damnit

[abuck1220]

0-0 game, 8th inning, let’s walk a guy with a .633 OPS and a .675 OPS.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

that's game. what an unbelievably ****** team

[JHBulls]

This ones in the books. Insurmountable 2 run deficits is a Cubs staple.

[abuck1220]

what a horsefeathers embarrassment. 
 

team that desperately needs wins getting swept by a team that is straight up not trying. 

[mk49]

Jesus.

Just forfeit on Sunday. Fly to Chicago and wait to see where we play on Tuesday.

Nibbling again to another sh*tty hitter with two outs.  WTF, are they scared to throw strikes to anyone?

Whelp - lol

that is all. Sit your guys tomorrow and get your horsefeathers together. Pitchers did their jobs today. Hitters have been utterly useless the past 2-3 series. 
Again…….San Diego or Atlanta here we come. 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[abuck1220]

horsefeathers would be getting INTENSE if they hadn’t won yesterday my goodness 

[BKHoo]

We are playing like the team that lost 10 in a row.  

[WhyCantWeWin]

The playoffs will be so much fun

There is no need to play 162 because with the way the Cubs are playing, it's an auto loss. Cubs are playing like a team that wants their season to be over.
