  1. the hell? why? You really can't imagine how someone could get emotional when your star player gets hit in the face and then the next pitch is another HBP?
  2. I like when players are so out of control with rage that they charge onto the field and then slow down to allow people time to stop them.
  3. From a quick glance, it seems like Underwood was lucky early in the year and then was genuinely awesome in the second half. Pre ASB: 42.2IP 18BB/28K 42H Post ASB: 58IP 18BB/56K 43H He did allow a lot more HR post-ASB, though: 2 pre/8 post.
  4. I've never been so thankful for a day off. I can't remember a series as bad as that one. If this had been a 4 game series, I would be hiding in my parents' closet right now. Hopefully Rizzo returns for the PIT series. It will also help that both teams will have the pitcher batting instead of one team having a DH and the Cubs having Szczur. #NeverForget
  5. It turns out that the Iowa Cubs minus Bryant is a really sucky major league team.
  6. Yeah, I want Arrieta and Hendricks as definites, 2 new guys, and then the least sucky of Wada, Straily, Turner, Doubront, Wood, Jokisch can have the 5th spot. EDIT: I guess it's kind of unfair to include Wada in "least sucky", he has not been sucky.
  7. That's from a movie where a guy re-lives the same day over and over. I wanted to post the toaster in the bathtub one but couldn't find a good one.
  8. They've been making some pretty solid contact off him, but he's also getting a lot of swings and misses. Control has been between ok and good.
  9. http://waterworldmermaids.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/crazy-funny-gifs-groundhog-day-punch.gif
  10. Castro may have seen his last game at SS.
  11. Think anyone would give us anything useful for Wood this offseason?
  12. I understand it, but damn this is a suck ass lineup.
  13. I still really like Contreras and think he's going to bounce back and break out next year. With Schwarber maybe sticking at C, Zagunis looking like a legit prospect, adding Caratini, and good seasons from Remillard and Kal-El Brockmeyer, our catching situation has improved quite a bit since last year.
  14. I would be surprised if we didn't win the central. Totally surprised. "Move or two away"? GTFO. I mean wtf? Competitor? We're a move or two away from shooting a big Ole wad on history. Brett and a bunch of other writers keep saying stuff like if the Cubs make a bunch of moves they could conceivably, possibly, maybe just maybe be a .500 team. Whoa, easy there Mr. Hot Takes, you mean the team that has been .500 since May, that has called up 2 top 10 prospects in the past month, that will add 2 more top 10 prospects next year, and has $50m to spend MIGHT have the talent to be a .500 team next year? You have to admire their willingness to put their reputations on the line like that.
  15. Memo to MLB teams: Do not run on Soler.
  16. Soler did a good job taking all 5 balls in that AB.
  17. How good is Seager? All I've read about his defense is that he won't be able to stay at SS, but that's as detailed as I've seen.
  18. Bryant will be #1 overall on at least a few lists this offseason and could justifiably be #3 on a Cubs list.
  19. I'm happy about this.
  20. Has it been pointed out that Valbuena and Castillo are the only 2 people playing tonight that didn't start the season in the minors?
