    Grounds crew.

    Cubs are currently closer to a playoff berth than they are to having the #1 pick.
  3. bukie
    The Cubs are now actually only 9.5 games out of the playoffs.

    At least he cared enough to get the lyrics instead of winging it if he didn't know it.

    Third order winning % standings are starting to look a little hilarious.
  7. bukie
    He was struggling with command (for him), and the situation began to look Grimm.

    It's a little silly that the Cubs could graduate Alcantara, Baez, Hendricks and Soler this season, and still possibly have the two best prospects in baseball in the minors.

    Can I just root for an insane Cub winning streak against the NL Central that propels them to the crown at, say, 84-78, while the rest of the division falls off?

    And Trestman ok'd it. It's so weird. It's not something that's going to decide our season or anything, but...I'm not a fan. It's a non-story. Practice is every day, opening a restaurant happens once. It's not like he skipped practice to go eat at a restaurant.

    Oh look, a Packer fan and Rick Morrissey combine to make a story out of nothing.

    I just heard him on the Score and he didn't say he was getting an MRI. Just echoed the same stuff from yesterday that if it doesn't get any better today or tomorrow, they'll have him get an MRI. Is this a new report since that? Yeah there's been nothing definitive yet.

    Cynic - "I can't believe this front office was allowed to not even try to do anything for 3 years" Rebuttal - "Look at how much better shape the system is in now. IT'S ALL HAPPENING AT ONCE." Cynic - "Well sure, but they didn't have to do things that way. They should have done things in a way that I enjoy." Rebuttal - "What would you have proposed they do differently?" Cynic - "I'm not the GM, it's not my job to tell them how they could have done things well." ...and around we go...

    This reminds me of the time everyone flipped out on Rizzo when he failed to cover first in the 8th inning of a tie game, allowing the go-ahead run to score on a botched dropped third strike in a game the Cubs lost 4-3. Fortunately, Rizzo learned a valuable lesson that night.

    Just because you only make mental notes when Castro makes mistakes, it doesn't make it valid data.

    What Len says: @LenKasper Btw, acc to FanGraphs, Starlin Castro's $ value is $50.4M for career to date & $13.9M this yr. His actual salary is $5M. Perspective.

    How ridiculous was Devin Hester... http://espnfivethirtyeight.files.wordpress.com/2014/08/morris-feature-nfcnorth-1.png?w=512

    August 8. The Rays won the game 4-3 in 10 innings, and the runner ended up scoring the 3rd run of the game with 2 outs, preventing the Cubs from winning.

    Renteria gets it. Kaplan does not.
  20. bukie
    Then it's a good thing he'll be a scout and not a writer. It's not like they're hiring Kaplan or something.
  21. bukie
    I mean, maybe he finally realized he couldn't keep up with all the Cub minor league success while having to follow other teams.
  22. bukie
    Soler's single was not one that I would consider a "seeing eye" grounder. A grounder between SS and 3rd that narrowly missed each is pretty much the definition of a seeing eye grounder.
  23. bukie
    Not a chance a seeing eye grounder to left scores Castro from 2nd with 1 out anyway.
  24. bukie
    Yep, Kaplan is flipping his lid about Castro.
  25. bukie
    Welp, people are starting to care enough about the Cubs to overreact stupidly in game threads again. They've made it.
