  1. Nice start in a Sox uni for Shields. 32 pitches and 4 ER in the first inning
  2. Guys I'm fine really, I am probably enjoying the team more than both of you combined
  3. Because I recall events that happened 3 weeks ago? I mean if I said "here is a list of the only 3 things I remember about the current Cubs season" you might have something. Otherwise it just sounds like youre letting out repressed anger out randomly.
  4. Would you have preferred a list of favorite airlines to fly?
  5. In that you don't agree or that I made a list? The discussion was worst losses or something like that.
  6. The team that would currently be first in line to pass them into the playoffs would be the Dodgers, who would have to go 62-40 (99 win pace) to pass a 93-69 Cubs team outright, and that's if they don't pass the Giants first.
  7. I guessed it right
  8. How many Cubs shutouts have been ruined in the 9th inning? Seems like more than there should be.
  9. 6 straight batters have reached off richard over 3 appearances
  10. yes come on bryzzo, i hated seeing 0 cubs in that "MLB Home Run Leaders" graphic shown earlier
  11. No doubt. I no longer see Heyward come up and think "please keep your SLG above .300, pleeeeaaaase"
  12. It's more that he's having bad ABs up until the point that he gets a hit. Some bad swings early in counts. It seems like every at bat goes like this: 1st pitch down the middle, taken for a strike. 2nd pitch, swing wildly at something out of the zone. Then the at bat starts. Earlier this year it was: Take for a ball, check swing take at a pitch down and well off the plate, then swing as hard as possible no matter watch pitch comes next (usually offspeed)
  13. Cubs after losing last night and struggling in the early innings:
  14. Terrible swings aside, Javy is now worth exactly 1 win this year after that last AB
  15. Yay, quirky first hit but I'm sure he will take it!
  16. Dex has missed some good chances to drive runs home the last 2 games. To be fair he did succeed yesterday in getting the run home on the sac fly.
  17. I'm not glad Jorge is hurt, but with Javy hitting better I'm glad this won't potentially steal PT away from a slumping Addison.
  18. He's continuing to get results despite ABs that mostly look ugly. I will take it.
  19. Worst loss and the 2 runners up: 2nd runner up: May 11th vs. San Diego. Cubs had a 4-2 lead into the 7th, Cubs were cruising toward their 8th straight win. In the 7th, Hendricks gets the first 2 outs easily, then an innocent little bunt single sends Hendricks to the showers and then the Cubs implode giving up 4 runs and losing 7-4 1st runner up: May 3rd vs. Atlanta. Cubs are somehow stymied by the hapless Braves until the 8th when they score 2 runs to trail by 1. The Cubs come all the way back in the 9th off a Russell single, but then Rondon comes in and loses the game in the 10th. Winner: May 24th @ St. Louis. No need to elaborate on this one.
  20. I want the combined total of Miggy and Wellington to be higher than whoever starts at C.
  21. At least our pitcher's arm didnt explode 2 pitches into the game.
