  1. With the zone this ump is calling it's no wonder. Seiya, as always, getting the worst of it.
  2. FWIW Mooney said in The Athletic today that the Cubs aren't planning on buying. I think this roster is pretty much what we'll see in August.
  3. In retrospect, we all really should've seen the writing on the wall when they drew 6 bases loaded walks in one damn inning and still lost the game.
  4. I looked it up at some point and I think we were in the top 10 in MLB something like 7 of the past 25 seasons but in the bottom handful far more often. You'd think RISP isn't a repeatable skill but apparently sucking at it is
  5. That half inning is basically this season in 10 minutes. This team is hilarious. Can't believe this front office thought horsefeathers invisible manager voodoo was what this team was missing and not better players.
  6. Kyle essentially throwing 5 straight pitches at Joc is weird.
  7. The Diamondbacks are aiming the baseball remarkably well, every single ball smack dab in the middle of two defenders.
  8. Us playing the first MLB games in Sacramento is mildly interesting, I guess
  9. I no longer have any problem at all with the White Sox, but I really hated that team. In particular it drove me insane that Neal Cotts, Cliff Politte and Dustin Hermanson combined to give them what amounted to a peak-Pedro type season, and then 2 years later Politte and Hermanson were out of baseball and Cotts was sucking butt for the Cubs
  10. Fun 12 hours thinking we might actually get back in this stupid race
  11. Very unsurprising replay screw job there. When it lasted as long as it did you knew they were looking for a reason to overturn.
  12. That replay is absolutely not what happened in live time. Reality is bending before our eyes right now
  13. Nothing like a bullpen day in game 1 of a doubleheader with a guy fresh off the IL going in game 2. He was out at first though.
  14. It was always delicious knowing STL fans were driven insane by Hendricks dominating them when he was great, even more so now that he is not
  15. You guys are lucky. I've been to 3 current parks - Wrigley, GABP and Guaranteed Rate. Apparently my mom took me to a game at Cleveland Municipal when I was a baby (I was born in a suburb but we moved when I was 1). That's it. Guaranteed Rate was better than I thought it would be (getting cheap club seats helped), GABP was fine but unremarkable, Wrigley is Wrigley.
  16. DeMar traded for effectively a bag of beans
  17. Boy I picked the wrong game to buy tickets to watch
  18. Amaya horrendous passed ball leading directly to the go ahead run is a new way to lose (I think), so at least there's that
  19. Alternatively they might all be as good right now as they will ever be. It's not like we Cubs fans don't have firsthand knowledge of that possibility.
  20. It feels pretty clear that AKME are giving up on this 'hover between 6-10' stuff and have decided to rebuild. They probably got spurred into it (no pun intended) by the fact that next year's first-rounder is top-10 protected and otherwise goes to San Antonio because of the DeMar trade.
