  1. *quietly goes back and deletes posts about the schoop/shaw MIF*
  2. fun fact: willson contreras has no XBH this year
  3. hahahahaha braun is somehow worse than schwarbs
  4. jim hickey and chili davis taking credit for david bote and cole hamels
  5. that is our first non-solo home run of the year, per elias
  6. this is not popular but i dont care if they do robot umps or not. you get screwed sometimes, other people get screwed sometimes. I dunno, I just don't really care. We have replay now and it seems to work about half the time anyway. anyway im not anti-robot umps, im sure it will be fine if/when it happens. I just don't care if it does or not.
  7. thankfully i can guarantee you that bote continues to play at a 9 WAR pace
  8. Still 5 games behind in the loss column and only 3 more H2H games between them and the Cubs (last 3 games of the year). Defenitely more concerned than I was a week ago though. The cardinals are only catching the cubs if the cubs completely fall apart. And if we completely fall apart Milwaukee is passing us anyway.
  9. Continues to be the best FA signing in cubs history
  10. Lmao it’s so embarassing I'm glad we all agree that the constant doom-bonering is embarrassing. You’re like the Donald trump stans who flock to Twitter after every misstep he makes to point out that “actually it’s good” or “yeah but he fixed the economy!” It’s a fun gimmick but it doesn’t make you worth interacting with anymore.
  11. if you were a true pessimist you would point out that our pre-ASB record was bolstered by flukishly good results from bad pitching. Once reality caught up to our rotation, the wheels have come off.
  12. i still cant believe quintana is this bad lmao
  13. yeah brewers should be able to tack on a half dozen more or so
  14. lol turned it off. hopefully bote gets an at bat
  15. Oh, I agree. I just figured David would have numbers to prove otherwise. Dude loves shoveling out cumulative rankings and pretending like it's somehow guaranteeing which version of the 2018 Cubs is going to stagger across the finish line. right on cue lol
  16. Hopefully that is the only one. narrator voice: it wasnt
  17. i dont think anything martinez does as a hitter is cheap, i just think if you hypothetically put trout in a situation where he was a table clearer for a team that always had guys on, rather than a table-setter with a couple broke dicks batting in front of him, that he'd be better. yeah i don't disagree, but MVP isn't supposed to be a theoretical though with the opportunities he's been given he's fallen far short of what Martinez has done with his opportunities; that's mostly true of every other hitter really maybe this is where i also point out JD's been ~2 full wins better than Trout in WPA I can totally go with that - i've always hated the idea that because we've decided that RBIs aren't predictive that they aren't "valuable." Like maybe some dude goes buck wild and has a .450 BABIP all year, we can't vote for him because he was luckier than someone else? but anyway if not trout i'd still give it to ramirez or betts, or even lindor.
