I mean, it's perfectly acceptable to acknowledge that the Cubs are the best team in baseball while getting frustrated at them playing like hot garbage on a given day, so long as you don't draw any grandiose conclusions. -
Checked into the game thread and saw that everything is going to horsefeathers and everyone is miserable. Glad I decided to quit and read Terry Pratchett instead.
-
Good job you idiots. Time to do something entertaining.
-
Heyward could probably find a way to GIDP with two outs.
-
Nice job, Russell.
-
Show some emotion, guys. Won't make things any worse.
-
Jesus horsefeathering Christ. Asking for a solo home run off of Shields isn't asking for much.
-
David, I don't think expecting this team to be literally perfect at everything all the time is asking too much.
-
Because no major league team should have this sort of performance against four mediocre starters in a row.
-
How do people forget how to play baseball? Like, all at once?
-
I mean, we had an amazing 24-6 start, and then had a similar stretch that practically cancelled it out. I knew we were going to regress a bit, but regression doesn't mean 'the opposite of unsustainable play.'
-
I'm backing to irrationally wanting Joe to yell at people.
-
If players having mental issues after moving to a big/high pressure market is genuinely a thing, then effective therapists are the new market inefficiency. (Only half kidding. Mental issues are the only reasonable explanation for good players going to horsefeathers immediately after a trade/signing, assuming they're not in a period of decline).

It's the easiest thing in the world. Pitch your best reliever in the 9th of a tie game on the road to maximize your chances of making it to extras. Your goal is to extend the game. How the hell don't more managers realize this? It's like a 0.5 on the complexity scale.
-
Ah, well. Sometimes supposedly smart managers make boneheaded decisions. Nothing to be done about it.
-
Anytime a trade for a reliever wants to work out for us is fine by me.
-
What possesses you to swing at that garbage pitch? "This pitch is headed straight for my wrists, better give it the old college try."
-
How much public internet shaming does it take for a guy to miraculously improve? Christ.
-
Good horsefeathering job Heyward.
-
Heyward's up. Whelp, was a good rally while it lasted.
-
Maybe don't take unnecessary risks in the 9th inning?
-
Jesus Christ Cobs.
-
Completely ignoring the team motto.
-
I really don't think one run is asking too much against this guy.
-
We're literally supposed to score nine runs off of every mediocre pitcher. Come on.
