The Sun rises in the East and set in the West, we live, and we die, and the most dependable thing you can set your watch to is that the Cardinals will have some bum middle infielder put up a 120 OPS+ and turn to dust the second he goes somewhere else So it is written, so it will be done
-
The Vaunted Brewers will never piss me off as much as Cardinals Pixie Dust. But give it another 20 years and maybe it will.
-
We're playing a couple blah teams coming up, so I hope they make some hay before that Brewers series
-
Weird thread where everyone was arguing about Pressley when they team had 47 baserunners and only managed to score one run
-
This is the kind of game good teams lose. It’s also the kind of game great teams figure out how to win. The choice is yours, Cubs.
-
Oh my god I’m so angry because I was just about to post “this is 100% the type of game we lose because we left way too many runs on the field” and there it is
-
Guys I'm not sure Justin Turner is actually a Major League player anymore We have at least 2 guys on the regular roster who I'm not positive should be in the Major Leagues, surely we can do something about that
-
I don't want to pick on Swanson too much because he's been really good and has been moderately better with runners in scoring position lately but that was the worst at bat with a runner on 2nd I've ever seen (by a guy who can actually hit, and not like, a pitcher)
-
Cade’s been really good the last month or so - very impressed with how he’s hung in there when it’s been difficult that should be his day and we should scratch a few more across
-
I’m not gonna sweat it too much but man, I guess the brewers aren’t gonna lose a single game to the Dodgers huh? That’s wild
-
No matter what happens tomorrow (barring injuries) this has already been an impressive series and a great start to the second half

Ian Happ OPS watch: .699 -
My perfect solution, if we have to change it from “indefinitely long extra innings until someone ends the inning with a lead” is: there’s a 10th inning which has the exact same rules as the 9th inning, and if nobody has taken the lead after 10, it’s a tie.
-
I honestly dislike the ghost runner extra innings things enough that I’d prefer they just bring back ties
-
God I can't wait for the season to start. The wait between NFL seasons is absolutely the most mind-numbing of any major sport. Made all the worse by the change of coaching staff and anxiously anticipating Caleb's progression.
-
Great game to end the first half on
-
Too many baserunners today to only have 1 run. Figure it out
-
I don’t like sweating about other teams in a pennant race too much but good god are the Brewers annoying. They never let up, they never make things easy, and they refuse to lose to better teams. of course if the Cubs continue playing like they have all season we’ll win the division and get a bye… but damn is this annoying. I guess the best thing you can say is it forces the Cubs to not let up and keep the pressure up. Is that good? I have no idea
-
Not trying to jinx nothing but this is a great response game from this team.
-
Ah. Ok. Well the fun, counterintuitive thing didn’t happen and we’re gonna lose. Oh well
-
Baseball is weird and whenever everything points in one direction, you can bet the exact opposite occurs
-
I'm never a person to suggest that we leave a poor hitter in a position for no reason, but I will say there's possibly no lineup in the MLB that is better position right now to absorb having Matt Shaw figure it out for a few months
-
That 2008 squad was so much fun. Too bad about the playoffs. Sometimes in the wake of 2016 I totally forget those 2007-2008 teams that made me so happy.
