  1. That replay is absolutely not what happened in live time. Reality is bending before our eyes right now
  2. 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.
  3. 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
  4. 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.
  5. DeMar traded for effectively a bag of beans
  6. Boy I picked the wrong game to buy tickets to watch
  7. 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
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. I'm the first to complain about luck but we're doing it every day. Either we're the most spectacularly unlucky team in MLB history or we just suck and you notice bad luck a lot more when you suck
  11. It feels like giving up grand slams in 2 games in the same series is a bad idea
  12. Michael Busch got rock solid defensively really fast
  13. Happened before I turned the game on, fully expect this outcome
  14. Another gem of an AB from a Cubs catcher with RISP
  15. I was assuming they'd lock it down until the Cubs had the lead and then blow it, but Hodge did well there.
  16. Fake baseball or loss, probably both.
  17. It took 3 batters, which is a somewhat novel amount for this group
  18. I have no particular opinion on managerial skill but every complaint we had about Ross (mainly an inexplicable devotion to crappy performing veterans and bad bullpen decisions) has either stagnated or gotten worse under Counsell. I don't blame Counsell for having a terrible bullpen but the Cubs gave him a gazillion dollars in large part because of his supposed wizardry on the matter so that's how he's getting judged.
  19. Nick Ahmed channeling his peak Cubs killing days from his time in Arizona there
