    this feels like an inevitable sweep i'm feeling kind of pissed off they didn't sit Tucker for a week (or however long he needed) to rest up his hand after he injured it because it clearly has hampered him and its done nobody any good to trot him out there for the last month+ and not actual heal the damn thing

    Season flow status: Bad! It Feels Bad!
  3. BigSlick
    Ok we have officially reached “disaster, dumpster fire” zone
  4. BigSlick
    So the offense has completely and totally given up I guess

    The Cubs have lost major innings to 4 of their starting 5 pitchers to start the year. Yeah, you always want to stockpile SPs, but its damn hard to plan ahead for 80% of your rotation either being out for the season or missing major time.

    So this looks like he’s one of the worst pitchers in baseball. That’s….not good. Cubs aren’t gonna score.

    The worst part about it is that we’re absolutely the “bad guys” here, objectively. The Brewers are the scrappy underdog against the big pocketed big kid on the block, and we’re helpless to defeat them.
  8. BigSlick
    Jesus Christ this is humiliating. i feel bad and the team should feel bad
  9. BigSlick
    Can someone please tell me what we did to piss off the Baseball Gods so much? They’re being extra cruel to us lately
  10. BigSlick
    Oh my god this is so PREDICTABLE. If you’re going to be annoying at least do it in a new way. God damn.
  11. BigSlick
    This game is giving me bad vibes. Feels like an annoying loss is incoming.
  12. BigSlick
    I’m gonna need like 8 to 9 more runs to feel good about this game
  13. BigSlick
    How about we get another two tree runs and give our boy Brown a little cushion ok

    What the hell kind of Ball 1 is this

    I still can’t get over how stupid the 2003 renovations were, making it the smallest stadium in the league for the 3rd largest market in the country. regardless i find it offensive whenever teams demand new stadiums after barely 20 years in use. Stadiums should last longer than that! Go cry somewhere else
  16. BigSlick
    Well. I like Nico hitting lead off at least.

    i dont care if its beared out in the numbers or not, but i'm weirdly more confident about the cubs against good pitching than bad pitching this is probably a form of silly cognitive bias where it "feels" worse if you don't score off bad pitching and feels less bad if its against good pitching. and my brain remembers when they do score off good pitching like they did in the Brewers opener.

    Brother, if you're going to do this at least set the same window of games/ABs for every player. If you do it this way you're personally cultivating the least Good window of production for everyone

    I wonder how much the Heyward deal weighs on their mind when they think of big FA contracts. Obviously, that didn’t work out as anyone had hoped (though it’s hard to complain when you win a World Series with him). hardest part of the Heyward saga is that there were so many seemingly good things around it: he was younger than most stars who hit free agency, he hadn’t seemed to maximize his talent yet, he was an all around good ball player. And then he came in and collapsed as a hitter his first year and slowly built himself back up but never played at the level you wa fed or expected. That kind of thing can scar a weak-willed ownership,

    i still wouldn't hesitate to DFA him for a roster spot when that becomes necessary, but congrats to Justin Turner who has an awesome moment and has made his impression on the season forever
  21. BigSlick
    Good enough!
  22. BigSlick
    Dansby, if you hit a walk off here I will not complain about your ability to hit in RISP for the rest of the season. That’s a promise to you
  23. BigSlick
    Boys….come on. It cannot be that hard to beat these guys. They’re not even trying to win!
  24. BigSlick
    Hell yeah Palencia. Let’s finish them off
  25. BigSlick
    at the end of the day, if the cubs can hold on in the ninth, they won a series and thats good. but man they made it really annoying and painful
