    where did the cubs win total from 2012-2014 rank? those seasons count too. Lol. They helped get us our MVP and a World series hero, that’s how they count. you’re allowed to get good players without intentionally losing for three years

    the last 5 years have been good? I see 3 good to great years sandwiched in between 5 years of dog horsefeathers. 97, 103, 92, 95 wins. I’d say that’s a pretty damn good run. EDIT: Most wins in the majors in that span. 1 of only 2 teams to win 90+ all four years (Dodgers) and only the Red Sox and Indians won 90+ in 3 of the 4 seasons. where did the cubs win total from 2012-2014 rank? those seasons count too.

    the last 5 years have been good? I see 3 good to great years sandwiched in between 5 years of dog horsefeathers. What in the hell are you talking about.. i see 4 years with a 95 win avg, a world series, and an injury riddled horsefeathers season that we were in the division/playoff race all year. guess we have different standards. I don’t consider last year to be a success. yeah they won 95 games but half of the league was tanking. and they choked on their own balls down the stretch. this year was a complete and total disaster, injuries or not. I mean yelich is way better than any cub and way more important to the brewers than anyone is to the cubs and they are cruising. also, this run of being good was predicated by years of unwatchable trash, and that counts for something. yeah I’d take the last 8 years because it meant a WS but man if Jose Ramirez was standing 4 inches to his right...

    So the culture of the last five years is gone, replaced by a 5 game stretch? This is miserable/morbidly entertaining, but get the horsefeathers out of here with this big picture meatball stuff. the last 5 years have been good? I see 3 good to great years sandwiched in between 5 years of dog horsefeathers.

    this is exactly what everyone in the orginization deserves. exactly.

    trying to see how many times we can let a lefty face goldschmidt/ozuna?
  7. abuck1220
    who else would you expose, Kimbrel? Holland horsefeathering blows but it's definitely also a sad commentary on the horsefeathers show Theo gave us in the bullpen. when you take your starter out after 4 2/3 (shutout) innings, you tend to have to go pretty deep into your (terrible) bullpen.

    this gangly ass dude has line drive to right center written all over him.
  9. abuck1220
    .721
  10. abuck1220
    solid ab

    how the horsefeathers did heyward only get to 2nd there
  12. abuck1220
    the cardinal in their lineup with the highest OPS would have the 6th highest OPS if he was in the cubs' lineup.
  13. abuck1220
    i believe i have thought "well THIS is the game that sums up the cubs shitty season perfectly" probably 26 times.
  14. abuck1220
    seems about right
  15. abuck1220
    hmm...a guy who can't hit lefties up in a big spot. would be a good spot for kyle ryan oh wait.
  16. abuck1220
    pretty good outing by phelps
  17. abuck1220
    if rizzo can only give you two abs (and probably not good defense), wouldn't it be better (or at least more dramatic) to save him for a ph spot?
  18. abuck1220
    looking to blow it before we even have the chance to get to kimbrel, which is good for kimbrel's confidence. maddon is truly the smartest guy in the room.
  19. abuck1220
    if i had no access to stats and you asked me to guess bryant's OPS just by what i've seen this year, i would say .726.
  20. abuck1220
    horsefeathering bizarre spot to use your best (?) lefty. edman much better vs. lefties and goldschmidt/ozuna after him.
  21. abuck1220
    1st inning: dumb out on bases 2nd inning: 1st and 3rd, 1 out, don't score 3rd inning: bases loaded, 1 out, don't score humming along right on schedule
  22. abuck1220
    I cannot horsefeathering believe he put kimbrel in. he wants to be fired. unreal.
  23. abuck1220
    can’t get one hit by tommy mahle when the season is on the line and that’s all you need to know about that.
  24. abuck1220
    really finishing strong here fellas
  25. abuck1220
    shouldn’t be a problem after losing 2/3 to the horsefeathering reds
