  1. Having Rizzo on our team is a luxury. I haven't felt so calm about a Cub hitter in big spots in a long, long time. (Schwarber is in this category too, obvi)
  2. I'm sure there has been another player like Bryant whose only real weakness at the plate was an inexplicable inability to consistently make contact on hittable pitches, but I don't know of one.
  3. Ummm, Harper is the best player in the game this year. Might want to calm down there
  4. Russell hit the [expletive] out of that ball, really wish Denorfia hadn't GIDP'd
  5. Detroit hasn't had a good bullpen in forever, it'd be sweet if we could get a runner on base against them
  6. Russell is so good that I just assumed he'd catch that one off the bat
  7. Ugh. The cost of the all offense lineup
  8. SF put a man on 2nd with nobody out and didn't score. Chalk another one up for STL's LOB%
  9. That's dumb how dare they impugn the sanctity of the Captain Morgan Club that I totally went to once.
  10. He counts even less than Russell. Absolutely. He made his freakin' MLB debut with another team.
  11. A little better than mediocre. If STL was going to win yet another bogus game at least they beat the team right behind us.
  12. Man Addison Reed is terrible
  13. Grichuk just went to the DL and Heyward left tonight's game hurt. If their LOB% luck ever turns the other way they could have a rough stretch.
  14. Cubs/Pirates is the only one of those 3 that is likely to be an impact game for both teams, so that makes perfect sense.
  15. Randal Grichuk to DL with an elbow strain.
  16. My two deadline nights at my newspaper job are Tuesday and Friday. I'm very glad the wild-card game wasn't on Tuesday and I sincerely hope it becomes a major issue for me that the NLDS begins on Friday.
  17. You certainly don't have to complain about their luck (you're a better person for not doing so), but the Cubs have encountered negative variance and poor luck plenty of times in recent years, so it could easily be said it's swinging the other way this year. The same is not true of STL, which just had a ludicrous BABIP and BA w/RISP propel them to a World Series two years ago.
  18. Wind is going right to left but that should have carried more
  19. It had Haren in mid 80s so it was likely legit
