  1. David's the kind of robot that will happily tell you that if you bite into a gross bug in your delicious pizza (IT'S ALWAYS ABOUT PIZZA IN THE END) that you shouldn't be grossed out by it because the vast majority of the pizza was delicious and bug-free.
  2. That's why you need that sweet, sweet Almora bat in the lineup.
  3. This is all just Joe actually really resting the team, Spurs-style, but more sneaky-like.
  4. Has this been as big a problem the last few months? The only reason I ask is I don't seem to be as annoyed when the situation comes up and expecting them to horsefeathers it up. It's been a weird outlier the Cubs have sucked at for 3 out of the last 4 seasons, including this one. 2016 was the year they bucked the trend, firmly slotting themselves in the middle of the pick instead of near the bottom. It's one of those bizarre baseball things.
  5. I am genuinely baffled as to why they lose their minds and fall apart so easily if someone is on 2B or 2B with less than 2 outs SO OFTEN. They ARE a good offensive team, and you'd think those are the situations where they essentially go into cruise control, but I swear it's like everyone comes to the plate is convinced they have to annihilate the ball instead of just getting the horsefeathering run in.
  6. What the horsefeathers are these turnips swinging at.
  7. Royals bailing the Cubs out from pooping their pants.
  8. 53 game stretches mean nothing. NOTHING.
  9. Addison has been nursing a sub-.570 OPS for a good 5+ weeks now, yet already has a 2.3 bWAR and and a 2.0 fWAR. On the one hand, he's not actually this bad. On the hand...all glove/no hit middle infielders are the lamest horsefeathering thing in the world no matter how much value they bring. It's like rooting for a nerd. A NERD.
  10. The demand to not demand more dongs of a team that should be hitting so many dongs that they'd be hitting dongs with their dongs is terrible.
  11. Enough to still be the best offense in baseball when excluding pitchers? It's absurd how much you guys complain about the lack of home runs and try to diminish the quality ABs our batsmen bring to the field every day. This offense is awesome and you all should stfu about it. I'd rather have a worse offense and more dongs. My completely sound and 100% accurate approach is that small ball is complete sham garbage that gets annihilated in the playoffs nowadays. NOW NOBODY CHALLENGE THIS.
  12. "...and you're a Cubs starting pitcher, so go ahead and hit the showers."
  13. He's got a horsefeathering DH spot to play with, and Joe still manages to leave Bote out, while saddling Rizzo with the brutal 1-2 punch of August 2018 Russell and Almora. Against a RHP. It's Neifi-Macias-Lee all over again. He's almost impressively stubborn in his blind spots.
  14. After watching our starting pitching get beat up by the NL version of the Royals, I'm willing to go with it actually matters. [David]ACTUALLY, it's been scientifically proven that literally no 5 inning stretch of baseball matters, has mattered, or ever will matter.[/David]
  15. We’re just gonna have to take care of them ourselves in the 8 games left.
  16. So when the hell does the Brewers' "brutal" second half schedule start?
  17. Especially since they'd have to be begging for forgiveness from SO many dead ancestors.
  18. Unfortunately, that's the only time we'll ever see it happen.
  19. Not a bat flip, but a pretty great bat flop: https://deadspin.com/carloz-gomez-has-more-fun-than-anyone-1828116653
  20. Who the hell is the beefy dude in the white tanktop?
