  1. Feeling the Padres will score some runs and the Cubs will score a sh*t ton more. Winning games by scores such as 12-9 and 11-7.
  2. It's only a matter of time before Caleb and the offense are really humming. If the defense can manage some moderate improvement we may see the Bears pull off a few upsets.
  3. Definitely, no way they would have won, we'd seen the usual combination of bad coaching, lack of adjustment, etc.
  4. This and Wright being out, when he returns the line will improve. Hopefully, Ben has seen enough of Jones and will go with Benedet or Trapilo from the bye on out. I'm make a prediction - the best version of the Bears OL we'll see this year will not contain Braxton Jones.
  5. Plus leading the NL in OPS+, second in MLB in OPS+, lead MLB in non-pitcher WAR.
  6. If the bats didn't check out for three months they may have won 4-5 more games.
  7. Just don't understand why Eberflus sits back in a zone and lets teams get easy completions. The could have won the game, 4th and 6, shouldn't you bring some kind of pressure?
  8. Their lineup is, for the most part, awful, don't think they be able to score enough.
  9. Boy, if the Cubs hitters are finally coming out of their 3 month hibernation it could be fun. Padres will score some runs but, a hitting Cubs' team will score a sh*t ton more.
  10. Problem was no Wright at RT, had a ripple effect. Him coming back at after the bye will settle and improve the line.
  11. Didn't watch the game was following on CBS, seemed, at some point, Crosby' name appeared less. His impact on each play was lessened, did that coincide with Trapillo coming in?
  12. They way the Mets lost, the inability to get the likes of Wagaman, Navarreto and Sanoja out is just excruciating. Glad their fan base gets a taste of some Cubs like misery.
  13. They need Wright and Loveland back, offensively, I'm confident they're going to keep improving. They'll hang with all those teams on offense. Defense? Don't know, Gordon and Edwards coming back would help.
  14. WTF was up with Kmet? Multiple drops and how many horsefeathers false starts?
  15. Was just thinking along the same lines. Don't know if you saw it but, officials ruled a "fumble" on Feagin when he was clearly on the ground with the ball. Dumb ass officials didn't blow the play dead, just let USC dig and rip out the ball while he was on the ground. Anyway, my point is that would have so on brand for the Illini to lose that game.
  16. Yes, my mistake 62-69 since April, duh. Was just happy as hell and forgot how to add.
  17. Wright is the big one, people have been down on him, his absence had a big effect on the line today. Wright plays and it's a different story, Bears would have won handily.
  18. Time and time again the Bears have been on the other side of that equation. Nice to be on the flip side.
  19. ****** as hell, revamped OL playing poorly and Caleb helped pull it out. We've never seen this from a Bears QB like ever, well, not since maybe, Cutler.
  20. Birdsell and possibly, Wiggins, might be in the mix as well.
  21. Tigers 34-43 since the end of June and they're in.
  22. Starting pitching, at the deadline they were in the same position as the Cubs. Hurting for starters and everyone knew it, I'll bet teams were asking for the world of them for rentals, etc. Just as I'm certain they did of the Cubs.
  23. Wicks has looked very good, don't know if it materialize in anything.
  24. And the Mets are out!!! 21-10 after April, 62-79 the rest of the way, that's past Cubs' team like. Say what you will about our Cubs but, they had just one losing month this season - March 3-4. Which I look at as 3-2, don't count the Dodgers horsefeathers in Japan.
