    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

    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
  7. BigSlick
    Good enough!

    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
  9. BigSlick
    Boys….come on. It cannot be that hard to beat these guys. They’re not even trying to win!
  10. BigSlick
    Hell yeah Palencia. Let’s finish them off
  11. 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
  12. BigSlick
    this always happens when a team is scuffling offensively but boy howdy I HATE missing out on multiple runners in scoring position again and again.
  13. BigSlick
    can the cubs avoid another horrific, backbreaking collapse in this game? its possible, but i wouldn't bet on it
  14. BigSlick
    boy howdy it would be nice to just be up 10 runs like the brewers are in around half of their games
  15. BigSlick
    😩 I just want my big beautiful offense back
  16. BigSlick
    If there’s one thing the Cubs love to do, it’s struggle immensely against teams that have given up on the season already
  17. BigSlick
    always have been
  18. BigSlick
    oh for gods sake
  19. BigSlick
    listen just assume the Brewers wont lose another game this season and you wont be as upset when it does happen
  20. BigSlick
    score more runs
  21. BigSlick
    horrific, inexcusable, awful loss. should feel bad about it
  22. BigSlick
    You’re just… not allowed to lose this game. I don’t know how to word this: you’re not allowed to lose this
  23. BigSlick
    The game isn’t over and these fools need to make it up to me, the protagonist of reality
  24. BigSlick
    Very frustrating game considering the Cubs hit 54 balls to the warning track and/or the Orioles made insane plays of 115 mph scorchers
  25. BigSlick
    Uh. Well you weren’t supposed to do that
