  1. Just because you never heard of Eaton doesn't mean he's not a good player.
  2. 2 runs allowed in the same game? Hendricks is falling apart.
  3. Might be time to take a perspective step back. Spazzing for a 1 run game in the 5th for every negative outcome is never going to end well in a game where the best players are successful less than half the time.
  4. The miserable reactionary whining in game threads? Yeah, me too.
  5. With his contract, batting him 8th or 9th just doesn't seem realistic. I think maybe he should try batting right handed or blindfolded or something though. I didn't realize there was a clause in his contract that he gets extra money if he bats 8th.
  6. Ok now just keep the game going long enough for Chapman to get there.
  7. In case everyone missed it, Len and JD killed it with today's 'Keys to the Game": http://i.imgur.com/gvbZrj4.jpg
  8. Article from Grant Brisbee on why it's a ludicrous proposition to trade Schwarber for Miller, and yet the situation is such that it still makes sense on some level: http://www.sbnation.com/mlb/2016/7/20/12235874/cubs-trade-rumors-kyle-schwarber-andrew-miller
  9. The donut is the luxury of the ruling class. How many Froot Loops are wasted on a single donut that could have been distributed to the masses to benefit the proletariats?
  10. And just like that, the Cubs have the best winning percentage in baseball again.
  11. Eventually this isn't bad luck and more of a bad trend. The Cubs have been bad with RISP for a few weeks now. I bet you'd never guess who is last in the NL in average with RISP, and where the Cubs are.
  12. Isn't that the one that stabilizes pretty quickly too, unfortunately? It's totally blown up from his MILB numbers, and you'd think it would settle down eventually (probably at the expense of some power, but still). A stat "stabilizing" doesn't mean it won't improve from there, it just means it takes X PAs until you can reasonably draw any conclusions from it.
  13. Odor hits a ball directly into the sun and Heyward is still able to track it down.
  14. That was awful challengey for a non challenge.
  15. Heyward with probably the two hardest hit balls all game.
  16. Cubs are 5-0 in Hendricks last 5 starts. During that time they are 2-15 when other pitchers started.
  17. First quality start for the Cubs since June.
  18. Next thing you'll be telling me is that it might be premature to judge a start on one batter.
  19. Looking forward to the sister article, Why is the Pitching Struggling?
  20. Huh, just like that, Bryant is tied for the MLB lead in HRs.
