  1. lol i know. i sort of wish he hadn't even hit it.
  2. stay strong, duke. i consider you a pillar of this community. Disagree. I like seeing bitterness every once in a while. we already have plenty of regulars that cover that quota. it's a game thread so everyone sort of gets a free pass, but the over-the-top pessimism is tiresome.
  3. random side note: i still cannot believe montero is more than a year younger than me. that continues to blow my mind. he has such an old face.
  4. stay strong, duke. i consider you a pillar of this community.
  5. fun fact: jake averaging about 13 pitches per inning so far
  6. i love your positive vibes not more than a min after the cubs tie the game. keep up the good work.
  7. lol. i posted this before my mlb.tv feed showed it (not in the water but whatevs). good mojo Go CUBS!!!
  8. remember that time miggy hit a ball into the water at PNC?
  9. montero can't catch up with that 93 mph fastball...
  10. *disclaimer: i'm the farthest thing from a hitting coach* it really does make sense. he was getting tied up, rolling over balls/ etc. back up in the box and let his arms get extended. in my opinion it wasn't that he was behind inside fastballs, just weak contact. he was plenty of opposite field power so it's not as if he can't still punch the outside pitch to LF/gap (plus he has an excellent eye at the plate). then again it could just be my eternal optimist horsefeathers. wtg javy
  11. is it just me or does CSN Pitch Trax not seem totally accurate? (i realize it's not 100 percent accurate but it seems like it's just "off")
  12. i have a good feeling about this inning. Go CUBS!!! (still miss Fred)
  13. i didn't see the second HR, but i think he's looked better (just not god mode). the first HR caught too much of the plate but it was literally inside outed to RF. He's just missing spots here and there but the stuff is nasty. in my opinion he's seemed like the median between "god mode Arrietta" and "recently garbage" Arrietta.
  14. I feel bad when we have to celebrate and be encouraged that Jake had a good inning. But here we are. it was more encouragement than celebration. the stuff is still there, just not the command. when he reels that in then he's good to go. i still believe it's just a mechanical tweak. that was the premise behind the post.
  15. Freese solo HR to RF. FB (inside) that caught too much of the plate. Freese inside outed it to RF
  16. well it's only been one inning. but it was a damn impressive inning. Arrietta grounded into DP. 0-0 going into bottom 2nd. Crossing fingers JA can replicate that first.
  17. I wasn't watching very closely, but JD was very impressed. yeah, he looked really sharp imo. even got sqeezed on a call or two
  18. well, didn't see two HBP back-to-back but ok
  19. missed call on ball one but that slider was sick
  20. nice in quiet in here just as tree prescribed. but, I'm still on the mend with this mono and feel good about this game. time to engage...GOD MODE
