  1. Forgot about Ruthven and Sanderson, they were rolling, then injuries galore and, in looking at the his game logs I see Sutcliffe missed nearly a month later in the season. That must be the later injury you're referencing, basically 1985 started out well, then injuries completely derailed the season.
  2. The hamstring horsefeathers is terrible, flashbacks to '85 when Sutcliffe pulled his while tiring to beat out a GB. Ended being out for nearly a month, Cubs were over .500 prior to injury, finished 7 games under. Maybe it time to kick the tires on Alcantara? Sell high on Ballesteros?
  3. Was really hoping to sweep these pissant fucks, nevertheless, 4-2, winning both series on road vs. the NL Central is pretty damn good. Even though the Brewers got this one I don't believe they'll be a threat, the Reds are the threat.
  4. Once in a great while the opposition will execute perfectly, it happens, good thing is it's once in a great while.
  5. Hendricks with 6 innings of 2 hit shutout ball vs. the Tigers tonight.
  6. horsefeathers Jose Macias, forgot about him, Macias, Perez, the 4-3 machine that was Juan Pierre, a not so fun period in Cubs history.
  7. Counsell really, really needs to stop Neifi Perez-ing Justin Turner against LHP.
  8. I agree, he dominated a better Brewer lineup last season, don't see why can't dominate a lesser lineup tonight.
  9. Throw in Vientos, Marte and Nimmo, who always seems to hit the Cubs well, and you've got fairly dangerous lineup. I like the Cubs chances against the Brewers and Giants, neither of them have anyone scary in their lineups.
  10. Someone mentioned the upcoming stretch vs MIL, SFG and NYM being tough. I agree, still in MIL and SFG, you're facing lineups that pale in comparison to what we faced in LAD, AZ, SD, PHIL and TEX so, it's kind of a small break.
  11. The first pitch DP pisses me off however, Skenes is up to 54 pitches, which is good, driving up the pitch count will make his exit that much sooner.
  12. I'll be optimistic the Cubs will win today, Rea will keep them in the game and they'll get to the Pirates bullpen.
  13. Is Juan Pierre the next player to be profiled? Who can forget the awesome one, two punch that was Pierre and Neifi? Someone had a image of the dice Dusty used to construct the lineups, I believe many or all of the sides where Neifi.
  14. If Rea keeps them in the game tomorrow, they'll get to the Pirates bullpen. Man I hate when they lose to ****** ass teams like the Pirates but, that's baseball, sometimes it happens.
  15. Cardinals took game one of the DBH, 6-0, don't mind. The Cardinals are not a threat, if they want to do the Cubs a favor and knock off a potential threat in the Reds. Have at it.
  16. I couldn't find any 40 times, etc. however, it's my understanding that Loveland is more of field stretcher, will be a difficult cover for a LB, whereas, Warren is closer to what the Bears have in Kmet. Is this correct?
  17. I believe the Cubs know Turner is cooked, give him a chance, didn't work out. He'll be a former Cub before long.
  18. Given the lineups they've faced so far this season I could see the bullpen being careful trying to thread the needle. There's no need to pitch in a such a manner this series, be, aggressive go right at the Pirates, stop the horsefeathers nibbling.
  19. Me too, need something out of the running game if Caleb' going to cook.
  20. Ian Wheeler, he listed on the roster at the NFL' site.
  21. There's hope behind an improved line they'll perform better however, at the moment, the Bears RB of room of Homer, Johnson, Swift, Wheeler and Monangai is depressing. More so when one considers how important the running game is to Ben Johnson' offense. While I'm fairly confident Caleb' going to bust out, the RB room does give me pause. As a result we may see the integration of non-RB's into the running game maybe, more than we should.
  22. Ideally Taillon will be able to keep it close, I like the Cubs chances to get to the Phillies' bullpen.
  23. Well, that sucks, an upgrade at kicker would be nice.
  24. I'd like a kicker seemingly every other team has, FG of 50+ yards are reasonable, almost chip shots from 53-57, not the guy who has to kick a low line drive from the 34+ yard line. Ironically, regarding low line drives from distance, the Packers are in the same boat with their kicking situation. Hell, the Lions found someone from UFL why can't the Bears?
  25. Does anyone know about the kicker they signed? Does he have a big leg? Would really be great if the Bears found or can find an accurate kicker with a big leg.
