I find that not living in Chicago any longer, my Sox hatred has lessened. I do agree Antonnaci and Pham are doughbags. But not like the teams with Ozzie, Don Cooper, Williams, and Hawk Harrelson. Those teams only cared about cutting the Cubs down. They had a fan base just like them. At least now, Antonnaci and Pham are doughbags to the entire league. Not just the Cubs. Also, I had no idea either Montgomery was a doughbag. Maybe I would agree if I lived in Chicago. 

Gonna go hard on "doughbags" from now on.

Did you forget Antonacci exists?

He and Pham are afterthoughts to me. It's not like the days of Lance Lynn, TLR, AJ Pierzynski, Ozzie, Hawks, etc., where there were some truly loathsome guys who were constantly up front and center. It's nice turning on The Score and not having to listen to people guffaw over Ozzie's latest presser, ya know?

I remember Ozzie over the years was trying to get the Cubs job despite the fact that he hates Wrigley Field. I do not know how I would handle Guillen as manager of the Cubs, and thank goodness we never had to find out.

Oops I didn't watch Sunday. I thought I saw he was behind on his rehab before the Cubs series started

😅 Fixed. Want to blame autocorrect, but not sure.

Not looking good for the Phillies. Sanchez threw 116 and predictablely lost it at the end

[javy knows my name]

Phillies with two atrocious defensive plays in one inning. We would have destroyed them

Harper misplayed an easy fly ball into a double, pretty bad.

Oh, I didn't realize that. Was only following on gameday

Me to, there's a video.  While no video they somehow played a SAC bunt into a non-out.

Braves' bullpen pulling a Cubs proceeds to give up back to back bombs allowing the Phillies to tie the game.

Phillies have life!

That's just Thielbar in a Braves jersey 

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Omg dude, you're a lefty. That was criminal 

[Outshined_One]

Back-breaker HR, and the fun's not over yet.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

What a massive choke by the Braves, yeesh

[Stratos]

Play-by-play guy for the Phillies game is very annoying.  I think that's the "Santa Maria!" guy.

I saw a video asking MLB players which stats were the most overrated and Bryce Harper said all the fielding metrics 😂

Absolutely sucks the White Sox get to play a playoff team in name only whereas, the Cubs face a legitimate playoff team.

If the cubs acted like a playoff team the last month or so, we wouldn’t be having that conversation.
