That's a really nice throw by Harper and might save them another run
-
Zobrist!
-
Better get a run here or I'll be mildly annoyed and move on because I can sometimes manage to be an adult
-
Man the ivy doing this horsefeathers just kind of annoys me to be honest
-
Babe La Stella strikes again
-
Hendricks is cruising
-
Gameday had both as strikes. Like my post above, they were borderline and not the worst calls I've ever seen, and the ump had been consistent with them at least But I get why Dex was mad yknow? two borderlines in a row is annoying
-
Hahahaha
-
Hahaha now the ump is squeezing Hendricks as punishment wonderful
-
Wooooow Dex got thrown I mean, I understand why he's mad, he got jobbed twice.
-
This umps zone is pretty wide, but he's at least giving it to both teams
-
I love rooting for Hendricks cuz he always looks like he needs a pick me up and I love a dude who's got subpar stuff but makes it work
-
Here comes the Ryan Kalish experience
-
It's kind of hilarious this team is so good that it's made La Stella one of the best players in the league
-
I'm totally ok with not completely challenging Harper with the bases empty and 2 outs tbh Hendricks looks like he's hitting his spots well though
-
Ryan Kalish had 130 plate appearances in 2014? God, I'm glad I wasn't paying attention then
-
Oh my god Dusty shut up
-
I genuinely feel bad for Pirates fans in a way I could never feel for Cardinals fans
-
Oh yeah, I noticed this too, that was totally bizarre It must be a statitiscian's error or something right?
-
I'm not particularly pumped to see a game that has our worst picher (who is still quite good) paired with Ryan Kalish and Tim Federowicz, but this team has shown that it can win games with every arrangement of players so we'll see. Beat Dusty's Nats and wipe that smug look off Bryce Harper (Who will for sure hit no less than 5 home runs in this series)

Len wants you to know the Cubs are good (a/k/a the Len thread)
BigSlick replied to Brian's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Anyone who doesn't like Len Kasper should be sacrificed to the baseball gods to bring back Kyle Schwarber's knee -
and then we trade him for a useful pitcher? Yeah, same

BigSlick replied to Brian's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I hope Len becomes our Vin Scully in that he stays here forever and grows old with the club. I can't imagine a better play-by-play guy and his voice is definitely the "voice of the Cubs" to me. And unlike Hawk, he's actually good at his job. -
Mike Matheny being a terribly dumb doofus who wins games despite himself bothers me less now that we have a stranglehold on the division and can just laugh at them down there

BigSlick replied to Brian's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Honestly I think most Cubs fans have gotten comfortable with it and I think the best evidence in favor of that was how we responded after Schwarber went down. Almost no one was panicking, no one was doomsaying, and everyone knew we still had a phenomenal team. It was a very mature response from a fan base, one that's prone to panic and resignation.
