  1. I hope Joe gets someone up. Just in case someone gets on.
  2. Good lord, are you even enjoying this year?
  3. Also had the Pedro Strop - Bob Costas game and the blown five run lead game.
  4. I'm strangely not at all worried about this team playing anyone. It's very cool.
  5. Joey Votto is good at this hitting thing.
  6. It's impressive how well ran they are.
  7. There's a fangraphs article somewhere that shows he basically started completely selling out for power after leaving the Cubs, for good(HR) and bad(huge jump in Ks, drop in AVG). Yeah, I think I read that article. I don't think he's cheating, just surprised more guys don't go that route.
  8. Marlon Byrd discovering power at age 35 is interesting.
  9. I love watching that last out, Royals' fans tears taste amazing.
  10. wtf The Cubs offense has been really hot in August. Our cushion in the 2nd wildcard spot was really pushed by the cubs hitting very well. Maybe they could be the 1927 yankees in 2016 or 2017? not 2015. Bottom line is the cubs pitching isn't nearly as capable as the top competitors, ie the cardinals. who gives a [expletive] about any other team your chasing besides the best team, the top competitor. thats who you have to beat to go deep in the playoffs. I think you're insane, get in and we have a punchers chance against anyone. That's really more than you can ask for in the baseball format.
  11. wtf This cardinals staff is that kind of good, I was poking fun at sontensai.
  12. I like our offense, but it's not 1927 Yankees good, is Theo trying to win?
  13. I probably would have used Starlin there, but he's prone to the same thing.
  14. He's been brutal at the plate for over a month, but I'm not really worried about him. Maybe I should be more, but everything says he's been unlucky.
  15. I like how we are positioned for the next five to ten years. I also thnk Bryant makes a Rizzo like jump soon. Possibly this year. I dislike we did not make a bigger splash at the deadline. I like watching the cubs again.
  16. Castro looks so lost. Taking BP fastballs down the middle, then offering at crap in the dirt.
  17. Sounds like JCL got hurt and will miss the European tour. Super.
  18. How did Gary Jones not think to send Hendricks back to second there?
