  1. The thuggish ruggish bone talk reminds me that Schwarber literally had 1 PA at Wrigley Field last year. Monday will be an awesome homecoming for Schwarbs.
  2. Molina's shady chest protector with the assist on that HR.
  3. I mean seriously...we won the world series and oh we get this horsefeathering dude back....against a tough lefty too. Amazing, great FA pickup STL
  4. First HR since Game 3 of the 2015 NLCS. LOVE IT
  5. That was one of the strangest things I've ever seen
  6. We all knew it was coming, and it didn't disappoint
  7. yeah but it happens to every team during multiple stretches every season. they will get it together and when they do it will be a dong party.
  8. Yeesh, KB 0-11 with 6K to start the year. Get it together buddy.
  9. even the Twins have 2 wins this season. slow down Well in that case the Cubs should have 5 wins already. Worst World Series title defense of all time?
  10. 1) its the 1st inning 2) a 85 win team winning 2/3 at home against a 95 win team is not all that insane 3) good to have your overreactions back
  11. Can't remember where he is...somewhere like Vienna or Perth or something.
  12. Austria. And still at the same place and don't ask me why ;) Why do you ask? Where are you from? I was just curious, interested to see where else in the world we have Cubs fans. There is a father and a son that post here who live in Belgium. I was born and raised in Chicago so a rather boring origin story for a Cubs fan.
  13. Oh well, he gets the gift of pitching to the hapless vs. LHP Dodgers
  14. Seriously I know I said this in the last CSN game thread, but the ability to (legally) stream afternoon CSN games from my computer/phone at work is probably the greatest thing ever. No more crappy illegal feed, popups, potential for visiting announcers, etc.
  15. He will never do this but he would be a great fit coming off the bench as a 6th man. He just doesn't work on the court with Rondo and Jimmy and the numbers prove that.
  16. Hahaha damn right rub it in whenever you can. If you don't mind me asking, which country in Europe are you from?
  17. Supposedly Lester's velocity was down his first start as well. Cubs played into November last year and expect to be playing in October/November again, I could definitely see the coaching staff trying to get the pitchers to dial it back a bit in the early part of the season. The part I don't like is him getting 1st pitch strikes less than half the time last night.
  18. Clint Frazier supposedly asks the Yankees if he can wear Mickey Mantle's number http://deadspin.com/yankees-prospect-clint-frazier-reportedly-asked-if-he-c-1794045027
  19. Hehehehehe. At least they got a world series appearance out of it. Thats more than we got when we stupidly built a team around young pitchers. Haha I'm reading more now. I don't know why it gives me so much joy to watch them be incredulous over their pitcher's injuries. I think its some combo of: -Having experienced this ourselves in the early/mid 2000's, its sort of fun watching some other team's fans deal with it -The fact that they don't seem to get why this is not some sort of terrible fluky thing and why the Cubs starters in comparison have been healthy. Yes both teams have been extremes in opposite directions but its not a complete fluke the Cubs starters have been healthier than average and the Mets more injured than average.
  20. Yeah I could pull up a pair for $60 each after all fees.....hmm
  21. Is there a possibility that Lackey won't start, thus the title change?
  22. the fact that you are now saying that about the Cubs with a serious face is the point of being a fan of shitty sports teams.
  23. horsefeathers, gonna have to worry about the illini again most likely.
