  1. Just another hilariously pathetic attempt to get a runner in from 3rd with 1 out
  2. That exact thing has been shown on the ribbon boards pregame for years. They also acknowledge Gabby Hartnett, Grover Cleveland Alexander, Mark Grace and a bunch of other former Cubs.
  3. Seiya hacked at the same damn diving curveball like 4 times in that AB. Very bad.
  4. That should be great news, but all it tells me is a team that probably needed some breaks to be a playoff team this year anyway hasn't gotten them and they're unlikely to play like a 21-10 team much longer. If they do, outstanding.
  5. Ross saying Mervis will be a regular (i.e. he's not getting the Velazquez treatment). Hosmer getting rave reviews for his willingness to move to a bench role, as you'd expect Ross to give.
  6. I left my office after the Cubs failed to score a run in the top of the 9th and by the time I reached my car the game was already over.
  7. I was just going to say it's amusing that the Cubs were actually hitting well with RISP for like a minute and a half and the baseball gods were like, "Nope, that horsefeathers isn't happening" and they've regressed at warp speed
  8. Miguel Amaya is in the lineup today (not Barnhart) and Hosmer is on the bench, so the Cubs are actually playing 9 on 9.
  9. Remember when Jed heavily implied the reason Mervis and Morel aren't up yet was that things were going fine as is? Guess what Jed. Not going fine anymore.
  10. As Hosmer bounces into another routine double play
  11. I'm sure some of their fans are probably blaming Contreras for everything as well. I was sort of talking myself into the idea that Contreras doing great for STL would've been amusing because their fans would have had to reconcile having a catcher who can actually hit worth a damn with their hero worship of Molina, but I guess that signing not working out is its own kind of funny.
  12. I'm not totally ready to go back to my original prediction of boring 2005ish .500 type season, but I'm getting closer.
  13. Really pissed away the margin for error on this trip with those Marlins games. This one wouldn't be as annoying if 2 of those one run losses had been wins.
  14. Wesneski catching way too much of the plate today. Also thank goodness we're back. That was a long few days.
  15. My favorite thing about playing crummy teams with unsustainable things like "7-0 in one run games" is that that stuff never ever seems to normalize against us
  16. That would not be remotely surprising considering we seem to be in the bottom 10 of the majors almost every year.
  17. Remember when it looked for about 6 minutes like we had stolen this guy for half a season of Bryant?
  18. Kilian's control issues don't exactly look fixed
  19. To be clear, Levis never said anything as far as we know. BigbadB is referring to a post I made on page 2 where his odds to go #1 had suddenly spiked (went from 50/1 to 4/1 or something overnight) because some guy on Reddit claimed Levis was telling his people Carolina was taking him first.
  20. I troll Zillow occasionally and I swear to God I wish I could filter out any listings that say "as is", "investment", "TLC", "project" or anything related.
  21. So the latest rumors involved some silly Reddit post by (as far as we know) a random jackwagon claiming Will Levis had told friends he was the #1 pick. Can't wait to not worry about that in a few hours. I'm extremely confident in Bryce Young. The only thing anyone seems to have against him is that he might get hurt when he's only missed one game in his entire football career to date. Not a good enough reason not to pick someone, IMO.
  22. Looks like Lamar Jackson got a 5-year deal from the Ravens. Interested to see the terms.
  23. Hell, they're already testing a 'whenever you want' pinch runner rule now in the Atlantic League, who cares about limitations now
  24. Update. Still horsefeathering done with Michael Fulmer.
  25. Feels like Max Muncy is gonna set a record for assists today. Everything going right into his glove.
