  1. I’ve often wondered why pitchers don’t mix an eephus in their repertoire purely because of how insanely off putting it must be to try to hit after seeing pitches 90-100 mph all the time
  2. I remember there was a Clayton Kershaw year where he walked <10 people all season and he might have had a stretch like that
  3. Hell yes. This was the kind of snoozer I’ve been longing for (assuming I didn’t just jinx an annoying comeback into existence)
  4. Perhaps Tucker is powered by hate and revenge? All the hate from the fan base powers him up. I can respect that
  5. I would be very upset with this. I don’t like blowing our assets on a year where we’re still trying to get things into place. if the Bears win 7 or 8 games but the offense is a top half or better unit and Caleb is clearly on the right path, I’m happy. I don’t care if we have the 32nd ranked defense in that situation.
  6. I'm not going to get out of my skis with optimism or have the exceedingly high expectations I had the last few years but I feel very calmly and reasonably confident that Johnson will at least have the offense look like a representative NFL unit Something we haven't seen since like, 2013
  7. lmao the Bagency is open
  8. i send zero blame towards any of the pitching staff over the last few months. its maddening to have to back up this shiftless offense in perpetuity
  9. Woof. You would really love to see Assad get out of this and give you 6 strong innings but man he's losing it
  10. I've only caught up on some highlights but it sounds like Caleb was not all that sharp to start off and they kept the first team in there longer than expected. I'm glad they did, glad Caleb could end the preseason on a high note.
  11. they may very well win this game 2-1 but its O.K. to drop like 8 on somebody from time to time
  12. i dont want to complain too much and anger the baseball gods after what was a very good series, BUT, man the offense is back to being so annoying and frustrating
  13. and the Cubs are, rightfully, IMMEDIATELY PUNISHED for not seizing on their numerous scoring opportunities
  14. is that a lead off double I see? dont even THINK about scoring them
  15. makes me sad to see Mike Trout, who, not so long ago, had an outside chance to be the best player of all time
  16. i for one am tired of all these hard hit outs. stop being mean! let our beautiful boys on base!
  17. thank you, all we can do is promise to do better
  18. He's gotten insanely unlucky lately - had a few near misses last series too. Hope a few of them drop for him soon. As opposed to PCA who is just putting out dreadful at bats mostly
  19. PCA struck out on a pitch that almost doesn't show up on statcast
