  1. I must applaud this team. They’ve moved to “I actively hate their guts and root for them to lose” in record time.
  2. In less than a week I’ve transitioned from “actively rooting for the Cubs to win” to “I have completely accepted this team is dead and will sell its players off for parts and the best I can hope for is ok-ish parts”
  3. I mean, the 83 win Cardinals won the World Series, so anything's possible. I just don't think this team is even capable of winning 83 games.
  4. Honestly, mostly same. MLB is enforcing this in a really clumsy, belated way, but the pitchers throwing tantrums are really striking me as a 'doth protest too much' kind of thing. Yes, MLB was looking the other way for years, but also you damn know you were breaking the rules. It is what it is.
  5. ??? they lost this game? i didn't even check the game again after I saw they scored 7 in the first inning. What??? I'm not even mad. I'm just completely baffled. Sell everyone off that you can. Torpedo the team. Relegate them to the minors if possible.
  6. I'm not super salty about Schwarber leaving but he will always be one of my favorite players of all Cubs time. It's kind of like when the Bulls moved Jimmy Butler. If you love him, set him free.
  7. Tepera turning into a pumpkin is not a great thing to happen.
  8. Ugh. Embarrassing
  9. It would be cool to salvage a split here. West Coast trips are always so miserable, the games always happen so late and almost always are death marches. Will be nice to be back on the central time zone
  10. There is only one rule they should institute and it would have a cascading effect that would improve all aspects of baseball people supposedly gripe about: institute the pitch clock ok actually I may be pro Robot Umps too
  11. Haha this kicks ass. 8 walks but a no-no is a no-no
  12. lol this would rule
  13. Hrm. I shouldn’t have said anything
  14. This is all going about as ideally as possible for a game 1 in a 4 game set
  15. It would be hilarious if Davies got a no-no while walking like 10 dudes
  16. What do you even do with KB. Sit him for a week? Legitimately don’t know what to do. Everyone’s awful
  17. The incapacity of this team to record base hits, the fundamental building block of baseball, is impressive Edit: I love a reverse jinx
  18. Bryant has been really really bad lately. It’s not a great sign
