  1. Wainwright has 7 starts before today and allowed 4+ ER in 5 of them (2 ER in each of the other 2 - one earlier in season vs Cubs) and pitched longer than 5.1 IP once. We are getting dominated by a guy pitching with a fork sticking out of his back.
  2. Can we please pay another team for their scouting reports on how to get out Grichuk? It seems like our scouts have a giant blind spot when it comes to scouting him.
  3. Psh 2004 Cubs were like 24 games over .500 at one point. This has 2009 Cubs written all over it
  4. Lose 3 MPH on your pitches and have less command in general.
  5. lol not a bad way to break an 0-28 lifetime streak against Jake
  6. Jake looks like he's gonna get lit up today. And Grichuk continues to hit .650 against the Cubs and .150 against everyone else
  7. Game starts in 50 mins. Game thread starters are in disarray. Cubs lineup: Schwarber, Happ, Rizzo, Russell, Montero, Seal Boy, Javy, Jake, Almora Jr
  8. The Cubs lead the NL with most PA with RISP this year but are last in the NL with a .216 average with RISP
  9. It is? Yes. It's Mother's Day bro gotta get a w for all the mamas out there
  10. Happ joins these recent or current Cubs in homering in their first MLB game: -Starlin Castro -Javy Baez -Jorge Soler -Willson Contreras
  11. That makes Candy man 2-23 in his very young MLB career. If we are showcasing him for a trade he needs to get some more hits.
  12. Lester reacted like it was gone off the bat....which is weird because I'm not completely sure he knows that that would have felt like. I suppose he doesn't.... I think he hit one in spring training once but yeah pretty much
  13. I'm not saying Lester is now a good hitting pitcher but he's worlds better than he was when he first signed with the Cubs
  14. That is the first time I've seen Len get fully committed to his home run call only for it to fall short
  15. I love how Joe is not afraid to throw guys right out there in big spots. Happ hitting 2nd, Candy hitting 4th. Who would have thunk we'd see this in a meaningful game 2 months ago?
  16. We did lose Fowler for almost a month with injury, Strop for a month, Rondon for a few weeks and lackey missed a few starts on the DL but yeah relatively speaking we were very fortunate injury wise
  17. This is now the "congratulate raisin on his kid" thread Congrats!
  18. Do it so he blocks you and I can scoop you on Iowa related news.
  19. I'll accept Italian beef as Chicago's submission. I prefer thin crust over deep dish as well but I still enjoy a quality slice of deep dish
  20. Ranking of NL Central specialty foods (excluding Chicago deep dish because no contest): 1) Milwaukee Brat 2) Pittsburgh Primanti Bros sandwhich 3) St Louis Toasted Ravioli 4) Cincinnati Chili
  21. Doesn't even need to have been intentional. Could have just drank the tap water or worse yet, ordered toasted ravioli.
