    Would like to see the offense get it going again. Not sure what they were doing differently on Sunday but other than that game the offense has been in a bit of a struggle.

    Wanna hear an annoying stat? Moss was 1 for his last 43 before he hit that HR
  3. UMFan83
    It's the 6th inning and the Cubs are like 3rd in baseball in runs scored
  4. UMFan83
    Both HRs with 2 outs. Annoying
  5. UMFan83
    Stupid game

    I have a feeling Miggy is going to start more postseason games than Willy fairly or not. Just seems to be trending that way.

    5 walks in 2 innings including walking the bases loaded in the same inning and you swing at the first pitch Jorge? Fake edit; this is a total hindsight is 20-20 post

    According to the Fangraphs piece on him recently, his ability to get at pitches high in the zone is what has made him that much better this year Yes that was the one I read. But he just doubled on a low pitch and popped up on a high one so that's all Heyward Fan needs to see

    Haha I just read an article about how Addy has crushed high heat lately and pitchers are getting him out with pitches lower in the zone

    Reyes is the #2 prospect in baseball, has been awesome w Cards (4 er in 24 IP and 11.4 K/9) and is clearly a potential future ace and matheny started Garcia over him why? Edit: I realize he was shaky that inning but better than mediocre ass Garcia)

    Hammer time
  12. UMFan83
    I saw a couple of mentions from STL beat guys saying that there are good hitting conditions at Busch today. Which sucks because we are facing an extreme ground ball pitcher (right?) and they are facing a human dumpster fire

    One more Cubs related note (love the CJ post above) A Dodgers Cubs NLCS would be interesting

    Damn, 6 of the 7 Cardinals that have faced the Hammel the most kill him.

    [tweet]https://twitter.com/rianwatt/status/775773295476150272[/tweet] Last year I was calling this phenomenon a "Kris Bryant" but I guess I should be calling it an "Addy"

    Panicked article of the day: http://chicago.suntimes.com/sports/beware-cubs-fans-100-win-teams-almost-never-win-it-all-in-mlb/ It is kind of strange that 9 of the last 15 100 win teams lost in the LDS. Perhaps we should lose 12 more games to ensure we don't win 100. kidding of course

    Thanks for chiming in Bruce, glad to see Fred resonated in the Cubs universe well beyond the borders of this forum.
  21. UMFan83
    OK no one else started this so lets keep the horsefeathers show going. This was supposed to be an easy game, and it could very well still be, but the Eagles destroyed a hapless Browns team and their rookie FCS QB looked decent, so who knows. Looks like the Bears are currently 3 point favorites at home, so looks like Vegas sees these teams as even. Lose this one and things are looking bleak for this season. I'll say Bears 23 Eagles 19

    Wasn't ready for how much dust suddenly showed up in my living room. I thought we cleared it all out of here. Gotta check the air filters again I guess... Thanks for posting. Thanks everyone for Twitter-bombing Len, and thanks to Len for hanging on to that for the potential game-winning pitch. So awesome. Somewhere, Fred is hiding a giant grin behind a pay-it-cool smirk and a cheesy catch phrase. I hope you can show your family this as I'm sure they all knew how big of a Cubs fan he was and how much he would have appreciated a gesture like this from Len
  23. UMFan83
    I remember meeting you at that game but I didn't realize all the work Fred did to make it happen. Great story.
  24. UMFan83
    Strange I was thinking maybe Kerry had a history with Weat but I can't find anything from a quick google. Maybe Kerry just consistently hated his zone
  25. UMFan83
    That's awesome but does this mean we have to be family friendly forum again?
