    Uh huh
  2. BigSlick
    10 walks by the Cubs today
  3. BigSlick
    Keeping Patton out there for a 3rd inning seems very cruel
  4. BigSlick
    Its cool that Kris Bryant has two "Kris Bryant Games" this year
  5. BigSlick
    This is kind of a terrible spot to use Patton but Joe really likes to test his new RP by throwing them into the fire

    That's his 2nd homer of this series. I still don't know who he is
  7. BigSlick
    ok just sit Jake, this is over

    Yeah its hard to draw conclusions as you said. The Cubs 'slumped' to a .330-335 OBP team in June and July (assuming you can draw a conclusion that higher OBP = more pitches seen per AB). During that period they disproportionately played a lot of good teams and faced a lot of good starts and the schedule was road heavy. Now they've spent almost 6 whole weeks at home and have played some bad teams. They were also forced to start players like Albert Almora because of injury, players who do not take many pitches. Ugh

    I should blame myself for thinking that 2015 2nd half Jake Arrieta was what we'd get from here on out, forever. Even Struggling-With-Control Arrieta is better than 95% of the pitchers in the National League, but I still find myself frustrated and mournful. This is my personal failing. I apologize, but can do nothing about it. EDIT: Also following the pitchtrax on Gameday and Arrieta is not getting very many favors on his zone when he's close

    The Brewers Will Always Be Bad, and We Will Always Be Good

    Sczcur has been swinging a really hot bat
  14. BigSlick
    Nieuwenhuis has 11 home runs on the season, 5 of them have been hit against the Cubs its just like, lol
  15. BigSlick
    That guy has hit like 50% of his homers against us hasn't he?
  16. BigSlick
    Make more mistakes, Brewers defense, and help our collective team batting average, you idiots
  17. BigSlick
    When bad things happen to Ryan Braun, its very good its too bad we didn't get more bases on that
  18. BigSlick
    I kinda like him in the 2 hole
  19. BigSlick
    Haha, Pat started with his typical call, but then actually relaxed after a second because it was so gone he didn't even need to be too excited about it
  20. BigSlick
    Stop walking pitchers
  21. BigSlick
    early runs make BigSLick a very happy boy
  22. BigSlick
    First inning runs give me life
  23. BigSlick
    It's completely self-serving but the last 2 years have switched me from a non-DH loyalist to a complete DH partisan because I want to see Schwarber, Contreras and Soler dong everyday
  24. BigSlick
    Weird to think this team are like, less than half a dozen pitches away from breaking the major league record for consecutive wins Also this whole stretch proves incontrovertibly to the people that were like "oh well, from so-and-so date the Cubs have been .500" because lol. this team is ridiculous
  25. BigSlick
    It pleases me that Soler has come back after I was on the verge of writing him off completely and has been a complete monster
