  1. Sounds like the Bears offense is really cooking today, with the biggest praise for......... Luther Burden III 👀
  2. Just waking up to the Suarez news. Sucks, I’m a little disappointed, though there are still bats that can help us. Like I’ve said, not our biggest hole to fill but I do think we need another bat for certain situations and the cost didn’t seem as high as I expected based on what reports were suggesting. not the end of the world though, excited to see how the day plays out.
  3. Suck it Brewers. Assuming we close this out, just need to go 3-2 at Wrigley to win the tiebreaker over MIL
  4. *deletes all posts asking why Happ is playing today*
  5. thank you. I dont understand where all this panic comes from or the belief that he sits on his hands during trade deadlines. Are people getting him mixed up with AKME?
  6. I dunno managers really love the idea of taking complete days off for struggling players. No thinking about ABs, your lack of success, etc. Not a huge deal, but with a big lead and an injury plus the off day tomorrow it would have made sense to keep him out of the game imo.
  7. You'd think like with a 5 run lead you might just let Happ have a day off before an off day but I guess not.
  8. I thought he was out or it was a tie, I'm surprised at how surprised Boog was. Though I'm watching on my phone so maybe I missed something.
  9. If William hustled out of the box it wouldn't even be close. Not sure why Shaw rushed that.... I know he stumbled a bit but damn
  10. I don't think so, thats the whole idea behind #Hugwatch and players being pulled mid-game. You might be mixing it up with there being a moratorium on trades announced during the World Series maybe?
  11. OK Tuck, would be great to get an OF fly at the very least here.
  12. Once again, I hate that a team can bring in a lefty later in the game to neutralize the top of the Cubs order somewhat. Make me look stupid Busch, Tucker and PCA
  13. Did Dansby forget or not realize that there was a RISP?
  14. I was just looking to see if the Orioles (cubs next opponent) are still bad and they've won 5 in a row with a run differential of +42 over those 5 games, including taking the first 3 from the Jays who had the best record in baseball coming into the series. Scores during that stretch: 18-0 (COL) 5-1 (COL) 11-4 (TOR) 16-4 (TOR) 3-2 (TOR)
  15. 4 run lead with our ace on the mound, what could go wrong? 😂
  16. Do you? Interesting....I was going to say that data is available real time so easy to quickly challenge but I seem to remember challenges having to be initiated immediately by the batter or catcher, not from the dugout. I could be wrong though.
  17. Bad ump. If they implement ABS challenges next year, if they limit it to a small number of challenge a game it would be a shame. From what I've seen, the challenges are instant. It would be stupid to not challenge that strike 1 call on PCA when it was so blatantly outside (and now strike 1 to Kelly) because Counsel wants to save his challenges for later in the game. I'm not saying you have to do unlimited challenges but 2-3 a game doesn't seem like enough.
  18. Not to be the fun police but the Cubs scored first in each of the first 2 games also lol
  19. It's definitely worth a try. I was resistant to trying 5G thinking it had to suck, but it's been really good for me. I switched to Verizon 5G for internet and DirectTV Stream for cable, get all the necessary sports stations and save about $60 a month over what I was paying for Xfinity.
