    sorry you lack the galaxy brain that gives you the capability to understand that it's actually GOOD when your pitchers throw 86 and can't strike anybody out.

    pitching to contact baby!

    ...in front of the best hitter in baseball.

    ah moving on from the "never having any baserunners at all" type of terrible offense to "having a bunch of baserunners and never being able to drive them in" type of terrible offense.

    how pissed would you be if you were a vaccinated player and some knucklehead staff member was preventing you from getting to do all the stuff the 85% threshold allows you to do?

    starting to think 2016 wasn't the beginning of a dynasty.

    5/$70 prolly looking pretty good to rizzo right now...

    bote is soooooo bad.

    the last two innings by the home plate ump were really something.

    javy’s day sums up the cubs offense over the past 3 seasons. homer with nobody on, look like you’ve never played baseball before with two on base.

    this season’s “smartest guy in the room” thing about actually it’s better if your pitchers don’t throw hard and strike anybody out is going great.

    winkler sucks

    the cubs have 6 singles through 5 games. SIX! obviously singles is not an indicator of goodness or anything, but that is wild.

    cub hitters with 2 hits and 13 strikeouts. cub pitchers issue 11 walks. maybe NEXT year will be the year all these problems that have plagued the cubs over the last few seasons will magically fix themselves without any actual action being taken to solve them.

    so, aside from some catastrophic injury to one of the "good" players, this is pretty much like worst case scenario, huh?

    also, the front office (or at least ownership) doesn't give a horsefeathers if the team is good, so i doubt they're overly concerned with platoons and such. i mean, you don't trade your best player for a bunch of teenagers and then be like "ok how can we best maximize l/r splits to ensure we win the world series."

    i bet they go for the 4th down if they’re down 7 instead of 8. going for two with 1/4 of the game left was dumber than the FG decision.
  18. abuck1220
    was probably a tough sell convincing ricketts that no, they couldn't actually just go with one catcher this season.

    Rebuilds aren’t easy and we were spoiled by the most successful one in sports history. It’s far more likely we aren’t a playoff team for another 10+ years than it is we have this thing back on track in 3-4 years like last time. I don’t know what the most successful rebuild in sports history is, but it wasn’t this one. intentionally sucked for 3 seasons, had an unexpected pleasant surprise in 2015, dominated in 2016, were still pretty good in 2017 and 2018-2020 were varying degrees of mediocrity/awfulness. and now we’re apparently heading back to the 2012-2014 era. if jose ramirez is standing six inches to his right, the theo era would be considered a total failure.* *realizing that’s a big if and the WS in the middle of what looks like a horsefeathers sandwich is a pretty humongous plus.

    you realize this is their offensive philosophy right?
  21. abuck1220
    hey watch a couple more of those dildos.
  22. abuck1220
    keep eyeballing those 93 mph fastballs right down the middle boys.
  23. abuck1220
    stupid dicks are going to score one aren't they
  24. abuck1220
    if they lose, it better be a shut out for maximum embarrassment. none of this bull horsefeathers solo hr in the 9th trash.
  25. abuck1220
    have to lead the league in fouling off center cut fastballs.
