  1. This Cubs team is very good, it turns out
  2. Ah jeez, how bad does it look for Hammel? Cramps don't *sound* too bad but woof I know that's a common thing for him
  3. How dare all of us get excited by the 26 year old potential corner stone player that has for the past 7 years been an above average hitter, elite defender and base runner and could be here for 10 years Instead, bizarrely, compare him to the 37 year old rental that over pitched his peripherals massively last year, who, to his credit, kept it going this year, and is a totally unlikeable [expletive] to boot
  4. Heyward is also 11 years younger than Lackey. I'm as happy as anyone that Lackey is pitching well (while also being more of a red ass than even I expected so far) but like, Lackey is a stopgap before we find a long term solution starter, Heyward is a guy that's so good at baseball he has been one of the worst hitters in the league and still valuable with his defense and base running.
  5. Ted Lilly looks like he has a kids face somehow attached to an adult body. A strange lookin dude. And the Cubs will win blah blah blah. I almost ALMOST feel bad for the Dodgers getting a late getaway game and then coming in for a day game in a different time zone. It's kinda unfair but well, too bad LA
  6. To be honest whatever fluky stuff they got going on hardly bothers me when they're 1 game over .500, buried in the standings and totally irrelevant. Maybe they'll make a push this season but I don't see it. Let em enjoy their random gritty white dudes OPSing .850, I hope they enjoy their 85 wins and being 20 games back in September
  7. I'm really looking forward to listening to the Score this week
  8. This White Sox melt down is like 2011 Red Sox quality, but in May
  9. Butters will have been the game starter for slightly more than 10% of the Cubs wins the last 2 years lol
  10. Like ski, I'm gonna remember this game and keep it in a little vial to salve my concerns the next time a bunch of dumb stuff happens to the Cubs
  11. This team is back to strutting around with its amazeballs offense and to be honest it feels great
  12. Best thing about miggy is how he runs to first base when he gets a walk like an excited little league player
  13. The White Sox have managed to become the dumbest and most futile team in the majors somehow I don't think managers amount to much (look at Ned Yost) but how does Robin Ventura still have a job?
  14. Oh my god. Somehow the White Sox have given up 6 runs in the 9th to tie the game against the shiftless Royals who lack Moustakas and Alex Gordon The regression is complete. That team may not be over .500 in a week, what a mess of a roster.
  15. Fine ass game Hendricks Galvis has joined Wong in Extremely Annoying Flea player ranks
  16. Gameday is telling me there's a strike out on Howard but people are mad here so I can only presume there are dumb shenanigans about
  17. Freddy Galvis has become the Nemesis of this series
  18. What's a Maddux again? A complete game under 100 pitches? Would be remarkable to see Hendricks accomplish that (Though not surprising as he's pitching like a latter day Maddux right now)
  19. Alright Rizzo, here's a spot for you to get fat on, get one up in the air
  20. This series so far has been excellent revenge for stupid fluky 2015 Phillies vs Cubs
