I swear Wilson is just Drew Magary sneaking onto the field in a stolen uniform. -
Man, he's having to throw some dangerous pitches because of that fat horsefeathers.
-
YOU SURE ABOUT THAT ONE, JOE.
-
West is in peak West mode tonight.
-
Jeeeeeeesus. I just noticed the Cubs have 15 LoB. If Bryant and Russell can even just come back as a singles hitting machines who never donged again it would help tremendously.
-
I really shouldn't be terrified of Wilson at this point, but I can't help it.
-
Yes, but he only gave up 1 run, so relax. If the Cubs are horsefeathers because of that, then they've got bigger problems than just trying to beat the Phillies tonight. He also just missed giving up a homer to Herrera and Hoskins just got under one. With a multi run lead a longer leash would be given. We lost a game vs Pitt a couple weeks ago where he only gave up 1 trying to sneak him through one more inning. Giving how he had been pitching tonight, it's not a surprise that they wanted to see if he could continue. Up until that inning he had been dominating.

West has been up Baez's butt all night.
-
He's given up 4 baserunners and 1 run. Yes but his OPS against the third time through the order is like 1.893 Yes, but he only gave up 1 run, so relax. If the Cubs are fucked because of that, then they've got bigger problems than just trying to beat the Phillies tonight.

This is the third team they've faced him on, right? What the heck is the record for that kind of thing?

But unusual or not, that's exactly what happened until a month ago. And so because of that, by far the most likely scenario was that they would finish up at 83ish wins, because projections are progressive, not regressive. It assumes their 4 months of .500 ball would combine with 2 months of the slightly above average ball their true talent level suggested. The fact that they've instead played at a 110 win pace the past month is like the 98th+ percentile outcome. It wasn't at all wishful thinking to assume that wouldn't happen, given what we knew a month ago. To suggest that it was reasonable to expect their record to "even out" this much assumes they were "due" some hot streak, which is not how probability works. These things have a not so weird way of balancing out over the season. I don't think them them tearing it up for a month is anymore unusual than how they were under .500 in June and July; we've seen plenty of teams go through some variation of that. They're going to end up with about 90 wins and a decent run differential as expected, so that they got there with the help of a big month doesn't really stand out to me as something all that odd. It reminds me somewhat of the 2015 Cubs, TBH.

Bless you, Mr. Baez.
-
Make this Pizzicato Five's last inning. OR ELSE.
-
Alright, Quintana has 2 hits and is pitching awesome for once. Don't waste this, you scumbags.
-
Oh my horsefeathers; score a horsefeathering run already.
-
What the holy horsefeathers was all that, tinyface.
-
Oh yeah. I get things.
-
More like David Butte.
-
Im new here as you all know, it refreshing to see you all just say what you want without getting scrutinized or called out because it "negative" against the cubs.. Say something bad about Maddon and most attack you with 3 NLCS in a row, WS championship, he knows what he doing , etc etc etc.. youre an idiot.. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk Whut. Joe is often a walking buttface when it comes to his lineups. Pretty much everyone except David mocks him over it (and for being a drunk).
-
Yeah, he seems to get ahead a lot and then throws the same garbage 2-3 pitches that aren’t close and every count goes full. Mix it up! That was my meathead take, too; too often it feels like when he gets to 2 strikes he has no idea what to do next.
-
Wait, why the horsefeathers isn't Schwarber playing? He's a platoon guy already, so it's not like he won't get extra days off. Get fucked, Joe.
-
Montgomery, without a second of hesitation.
-
Please don't suck, Quintana.
