Well stop then.

I mean, you literally just did say they aren’t good by calling them the definition of mediocre. You said it a few days ago too. Good meaning good, not mildly good. It's a semantic game. Like 90 wins

10 games as of right now, but who's counting? I guess it all depends on what you think is a good team. The 2016 Cubs weren't playing teams with a .420 and below winning percentages (in their division). The Cardinals would be in 3rd place in the NL East, 2nd place in the NL West. The only division they would be leading other than the NL Central is the AL Central. They are the king of the dipshits, a wildcard team. The definition of mildly ok. The Braves are 26-28 against teams over .500. The Padres are 20-27, the Phillies are 29-34, the Jays are 34-43 and the Rays are 34-37. All of these teams are currently in the playoffs. Are none of them good either? Who said the Cardinals weren't good? I know It's a common tactic here to move the goalposts in the middle of arguments, but I'm keeping them in place. They are mildly good, the definition of mediocre.

They're 24-28 against teams over .500. Come again? They have a bunch more games against good teams. We'll see how they do. 2016 Cubs: 31-25 against over 500 teams. 72-33 against under 500 teams. Like, you've been around for a while, you have to know this is how this works. 24-28 against teams over .500
-
I don't know what you are loling about. They are a combined 2 games above .500 playing teams other than the Cubs, Pirates, Brewers, and Reds. You do know most good teams get there by mostly beating the bad teams and not sucking against the good ones? They're 24-28 against teams over .500. Come again? They have a bunch more games against good teams. We'll see how they do.

I must say, I'm pleasantly surprised with Girardi in the booth. He's been pretty good with his analysis. Thompson out after 3.75 innings.
-
Derwood, they are playing in NL Central. They are 30-17 in the division, below .500 against the West, 14-9 against the East, and .500 in interleague. They are a mediocre team. lol, ok I don't know what you are loling about. They are a combined 2 games above .500 playing teams other than the Cubs, Pirates, Brewers, and Reds.

Thompson can only pitch in even innings from here on out.
-
Mediocre? They're top 5-6 in both run scored and runs allowed. They're pretty clearly a good team Derwood, they are playing in NL Central. They are 30-17 in the division, below .500 against the West, 14-9 against the East, and .500 in interleague. They are a mediocre team.

Indeed.
-
Infield single by Happ. Cubs up 3-2
-
Good pick up by the Cubs.
-
Reyes with a hustle triple off the wall to drive in Seiya.
-
Seiya with a run scoring double. Madrigal had a hustle single to start the inning.
-
Thompson laying an egg in the first inning, 2 runs in the first. Blue Angles buzzing the field.
-
They are such a mediocre team it makes me extra mad the Cubs are choosing to punt on multiple seasons. By the time they are ready to try, the Cardinals and the Brewers will be good again.
-
And why didn't Eberflus challenge the no catch before halftime? I think that was when it was. Said they basically just missed it. Same problem, different people. Don't the Bears have a guy for this?

8/18 trying the orioles again

If they don’t at least try to resign Willson they are making a big mistake -
Cubs win 3-2
-
Brault looks good.
-
I know Jed hates contracts longer than 4 years but he doesn’t have to keep reminding us of why every time he does go over 4 years. Seiya is flummoxed by the strike zone of MLB umpires. He's up there with no confidence. American umpires have broken him. Happ took strike three that was 4 or 5 inches off the outside.
-
He has COVID, but he's been gone for a while.

Cubs up 2-1 in the 6th. Smyly out after a good outing. Boog announces Joe Girardi will be joining the broadcast this weekend with him and JD. Should be a riveting discussion on the value of sac bunting with your number 5 hitter.

Cubs going to have to rebuild that pen. One thing we know for sure they can do.
