Jesus THAT guy. He even had back up signs that read "1984 and 2003 Chokers" really? You're gonna go for 1984 here? If you're the type of guy that wants to rag on the other team when you're favorite team is in the WORLD SERIES I got nothing for you
-
Maddon is in full "horsefeathers it Players are just gonna deal with it" mode, which, I appreciate from a certain angle. That lineup also makes me dearly wish for having the DH in the NL
-
I think we should take the 4 guys that all have near .400 OBPs and ... move them
-
I dont think there is anyway Montero DOESN'T start at Catcher, but of course I didn't think Maddon would basically bench Heyward in the World Series after sticking with him for 172 games, so who knows
-
Yeah I'm listening to the Score too, interesting. My brain is telling me he will flail at a bunch of pitches and look bad, my heart says he dongs
-
eh, it sucked, Kluber looked great, the ump was horrific, the at-bats we had were miles ahead of where we were in those games against Kershaw and Hill It's a long series. Just dong them to death, thank you
-
LOL, right?! I'm gonna feel like a [expletive] fool if I bawled my eyes out Sat, only to have the guys go down as quietly as they did against the Mutts last year. Its a long series, and the rest of their staff ain't Kluber
-
horsefeathers.
-
Ok. Figure out a way to win this game
-
Well this game isn't fun yet
-
Ok, please end All the stupid Schwarber fears Sigh
-
This ump bloooooows
-
Can you give Lester the horsefeathering corner you horsefeathers?
-
Huh, this is bad
-
Kluber is pitching well AND this ump is really doing an awful job
-
its totally bizarre seeing smart baseball people like Joe Sheehan and Dave Cameron shout themselves apoplectic over the Schwarber-Coghlan-Heyward moves. like at the end of the day, its just isn't that big of a deal, and they're acting like these are huge risks the Cubs are taking. Ok.
-
I'm almost upset his first at bat wont occur at home, because I just want to see how Wrigley would react to a Schwarber pinch hit appearance
-
The fix for fans treating players shitty isn't to go and treat some other players shitty, its to stop treating some players shitty I'm sure no one feels worse than Heyward for how he's played this year than Heyward. And he's clearly tried his best throughout the year to play at the highest level he can. Making him feel bad for that is cruel and unusual.
-
At home with their best pitcher, this is probably their most favorable match up
-
Rajai Davis leading off for a World Series team makes me laugh and laugh those scrubs are in for a dongin'
-
Coghlan has been an overall decent player for the Cubs, and he's been signifcantly better than Heyward has in the last few months, so I don't know why Cameron is getting so pouty about it
-
Well he wasn't wrong about him starting as a DH, he was just wrong where he was in the batting order. Which is up to Maddon completely so he may have just changed his mind.
-
Coghlan instead of either Contreras or Heyward is a tad bit surprising. The more I hate on Coghlan the better he does though, so I expect him to go 3-5
-
Schwarber: Fully torn ACL and LCL. Out for 172 meaningless games.
BigSlick replied to OleMissCub's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Schwarber being on the roster is like the definition of fun and a cinderalla story. Odds are he doesn't do anything special during the World Series because the odds are against any player doing anything special. But it feels so good because this dude was so good last year and had to tough out a rough injury almost the entire year. And he gets to come back! That never happens! Hating it is like, totally alien to me -
i actually think the indians are a bunch of unimpressive scrubs and we're going to knock them around like a pinata
