  1. Very nice sweep, although the RD gods took +8 away from us with meaningless Reds rallies the last 2 games.
  2. Pretty stupid of Hamilton to tag there right? I mean I know he's fast but why risk it against someone whose arm they probably don't have a reliable scouting report of.
  3. Has Duensing ever pitched a multi inning outing that didnt blow up in his face during the 2nd inning of work?
  4. JFC, I don't even want to see Wade Davis warming up you [expletive].
  5. I swear to god if we have to use Wade Davis in this game....
  6. Yeah something called an Espino, then Chase Anderson and then Jimmy Nelson are a really feared triple headed monster. Hah, I meant the guys we have going and Anderson and Nelson are maybe their 2 best pitchers aren't they? (not that this means they are great relative to the entire league)
  7. From a Maddux to BABIP'd into a potentially mediocre looking stat line
  8. Eh. When I go to visit inlaws in Cincinnati I usually get it once a trip. It's not bad at all for fast food (I've never actually been to a real chili parlor, just Skyline and Gold Star), but embarrassing for it to be their local specialty food. I would take pretty much anything on the menu from Portillos (closest comp I can think of in Chicago) over Skyline.
  9. in 2016 plus 2017 so far, what would the reds' record be if they didn't have to play us? i bet it's surprisingly close to .500 They would have had home field in the Wild Card game last year if games against us didn't count Edit: OK not really but you hesitated for a second didn't you?
  10. DAMMIT JON...do some curls or something you are almost there.
  11. Those pitching matchups are not ideal for this weekend (can't believe I am saying this with Jake Arrieta being one of the 3 going)
  12. that was in the 2nd inning i believe Javy? Nope....i dont think anyone will get it if they don't recall it right away. It was Junior Lake in 2013
  13. Didn't Contreras do it against the Reds like 2 weeks ago? that was in the 2nd inning i believe
  14. 5 walks this year 4 of them intentional He's basically how I play The Show come to life. I haven't played The Show in a few years but whenever those challenges came up in RTTS where you had to walk "x times in x weeks" I just completely ignored them and hoped I would get intentionally walked enough to complete it.
  15. Just for the love of trivia, Jesse Rogers asked on twitter who the last Cubs player was to hit a 1st inning Grand Slam before today. Can anyone get it?
  16. everybody appears to be heating up except like Addy and Willy
  17. Hit off his birthday on the video board. Can we hire some engineers to create a wind tunnel around wrigley to make it so the wind is always blowing out 20+ MPH? This is fun. Edit: NM not off the board
  18. Wow! 2 strike hanger up in the zone for a grand slam
  19. that has to be the first time the Cubs have ever retired Billy Hamilton when he's led off a game.
  20. Man I completely forgot about that, thanks for the laugh
