  1. With full knowledge of the fact that hitting 97 mph fastballs is crazy hard, why was everyone so late on them all inning when that was literally all he threw?
  2. Darvish is annoying but he's also getting BABIP'd to death today. Stupid ass game
  3. He sucked ass when he was healthy last year so I'm not sure why that's surprising
  4. Darvish did well with Davis in Arizona, I'm cool with latching onto any shred of an idea that the combination would help him. And it might be working if not for piss lucky doubles and Vanover repeatedly screwing Darvish on pitches at the knees.
  5. Bote is a very good defensive 3B, so there's really no reason to do that.
  6. In a hypothetical world where Good Q is a real thing all year and we make the playoffs, I'd feel pretty good about those top 4 in a rotation.
  7. Underrated part of Kyle Hendricks going into world-destroyer mode is how much it annoys the opponents' fans. The GRB game thread is a good read today.
  8. Kyle Hendricks has had enough of your bull horsefeathers
  9. Oh god I forgot those horsefeathering meatballs are going to do this
  10. At one point in late June 2008, he led the NL in strikeouts (or was really close, I can't remember exactly), which I just thought was completely insane as a reliever at that point of the season.
  11. Willson alone has been worth firing that clown.
  12. The guy who has 7 home runs in 90 PAs after 10 in the previous 947? Sure? I don't think it's a hot take to say you'd rather have LaStella's April over Descalso's, but I remain pretty confident that we'll have the better player going forward. And it's not like Descalso has been a scrub either. He's had a pretty good go of it so far.
  13. As long as they want. He has options.
  14. 3 of them were because we played in 3 home openers, all outdoors, and they have the auto-day off after those. The rest I'm just assuming was the schedule makers trolling us.
  15. Gutting. I have two sons, 2 1/2 and 11 months, and I always hug them a little tighter after reading things like this.
  16. It's gonna be kind of a bummer when Chatwood has to be shelved right in the middle of by far his best stretch of pitching as a Cub
  17. I'm almost certain no team has ever blown 3 of those spots in extra innings and won the game
  18. Holy crap what a baller sequence from Chatwood
  19. I actually don't remotely mind that. He came within an inch or 2 of making it and Zobrist can't hit horsefeathers right now
  20. This isn’t an example of what you are saying but I do remember the Brewers blowing a bases loaded 0 out situation in like the 13th inning of a 2016 game but the Cubs ended up winning The Travis Wood escape. It did occur to me as that last inning was playing out
  21. Kintzler serving up double play grounders every time he needs one is pretty cool, keep doing that
  22. I don't recall any team ever blowing a situation like we just did and winning in extras, but there's a first time for everything
