Let's get Machado and be done with it.
-
We are going to win tonight, right?
-
Really, Happer? You dumb bastard.
-
Everything about that play from Kyle to Javy was amazing.
-
Holy crap.
-
I want to know what Almora did, but I feel I should be punished for turning off the game. As long as nobody gets injured, everything is fine.
-
He's also taken some terrible hacks, which an optimist would say is because he's getting screwed by the ump, but a pessimist would say are terrible hacks.
-
I would have been way more inspired by the bench Chatwood for Monty talk if Monty would have come in and done much better. Hope R Mack is enjoying the game since Chatwood left.

I don't want to give up what it would take to get Machado, but I still want Machado.

He's had one season where his BB% was under double digits and he has never ever been above average as a major leaguer. That’s all we really are asking for though. A return to his high 3s/mid 4s BB/9 numbers. That already higher walk totals should’ve been the baseline with hoping for some improvements, not this nonsense Yes. All of this.

Sounds terrible, just let Montgomery start You won't be happy with Montgomery either, though, true?
-
He does if he goes back to his career walk norms. Color me skeptical that a two time TJS recipient is going to regain his previously terrible control. It's a myth that he can just fix it. It would be shocking that he could get back to his normal terrible control, more in line with his most recent two seasons? I don't think it would be shocking. Dude has to figure it out, of course.
-
So for the smart guys, how does one out of nowhere start to walk so many more guys than ever before?
-
He was frustrating because all his strikes were right down the middle and donged. But at least we didn't have people telling us he had some mythical upside like Chatwood. He does if he goes back to his career walk norms.
-
The off day World Series thread has me feeling very mellow.
-
Hate him more than 2017 Lackey, less or the same? At least Lackey threw strikes. He was frustrating because all his strikes were right down the middle and donged.
-
Well, this isn't set up great for a win.

Going to need a double play now, Chatwood. You can do it. I believe in you. Your stuff is great.
-
Ouch. I will be very happy if he doesn't give up a run this inning now.
-
That sucks he walked that dude. Starting the third with a likely out instead of Lindor would have been cool.
-
I always thought I am the only one to have a hard time watching most of Game 7 because it still causes me anxiety. It’s so easy to see how things could have been different. I just assumed because we won everyone else would have no problem watching it and didn’t want to admit it. Thank you for showing me I’m not alone in Game 7 anxiety. Also that Kipnis foul being posted Is irresponsible. Way too graphic.

Interesting posts. I for sure felt more euphoria than even relief. Although there was relief. Because when Chapman gave up that homer and I'm sitting here reading the posts, I pretty much fell to the floor and was wondering how I'd ever recover sports-wise if we didn't win, and how the journey and gauntlet back to this very moment would be way too grueling and too much to invest in, along with all the anti-Cubs and just baseball people in general having the biggest evidence yet of curses and how we'd never win. That was going to be a long winter. And the rain came, and everything turned out great.
-
Did you know? I was such an emotional wreck that I didn't watch Game 7 and only followed the game on that now epic Game 7 thread. ETA: I actually stopped watching after the second inning.

Can't say for sure they are all awesome dudes, as just like life, 50 percent likely are douches. However, I don't want them as my friends so it's all good. I just want them to win games because I picked their laundry to cheer for when I was a young kid and it stuck with me. I also feel stupid for getting irritated at the Cubs so soon after they won it all. Very odd that I got spoiled so quickly when I'd have signed an agreement that the Cubs never won another one in 50 years provided they give us 2016.
