  1. horsefeathering [expletive] loss. horsefeathers.
  2. Same, I think some (maybe even most) of it is warranted Also probably boiling over from the bad year. Hard to get too upset when you are winning 100 games each year after sucking for so long. More attuned to it now. But, I haven't been pissed at him much at all this year, even when we were really struggling. So I definitely think he's been horsefeathering up more often the last couple weeks.
  3. I've been getting pissed at Joe more than usual lately. He either needs to stop drinking so much wine or start drinking more of it.
  4. Avila has to take that AB. I mean, horsefeathers, it's a 1-run game with the bases loaded and 2 outs in the 8th against a nasty closer. You have a proven big league hitter on the bench that happens to play the same position as the shitty AAAA player coming up to hit. What the hell? You even have another horsefeathering catcher in Schwarber on the bench, if you are worried about using your backup catcher.
  5. Damn, that was huge. And Castillo is out of the game.
  6. No one I fear more in this situation than shitty ass Billy Hamilton.
  7. STOP PRESSING YOUR LUCK!!! I've been trying to kill him for well over a year now. I thought it worked in June. But there is nothing that can contain this man and his 85 mph fastball.
  8. Kyle looks good. He's the one guy I can't kill. And he's my favorite Cub.
  9. I am not able to watch WGN games, so when I started reading the game thread, I had assumed Quintana gave up 7 runs. Anytime you read a game thread, take what you assume the score is and deduct 5 from the opponents.
  10. Relief pitchers' WAR also incorporates leverage. I'm not sure if they use WPA or what, or how much effect it has. But, it's basically saying Duensing has been our most valuable reliever, despite being used mostly early and in blowouts and losses all the way into June.
  11. Brian Duensing has the highest fWAR of any relief pitcher on the team -- fourth-highest of any pitcher.
  12. It's too bad his assist didn't count since Dave Cameron said throwing doesn't matter.
  13. On the one hand, as Agony and Ivy said, Castillo is solid and has some good stuff. On the other hand, he's a Reds pitcher pitching against the Cubs. Cubs by 15.
  14. Before long, he'll be throwing 62 mph like Jake.
