Beyond the 1 run, it probably also makes Lester throw at least 10 more pitches in a game he's not being terribly efficient in. -
double error costs them a run and the lead
-
It's failed him before. Well it doesnt nearly as much as you'd think it would
-
omg the terrible catching technique finally failed Dex. Dammit
-
I'm pretty ok with it considering their pitcher came up with 2 on and 2 out last inning i know it was a (bad) joke because it was posted 'good thing the pitcher is batting 8th' when they grounded out last inning.
-
Boo pitcher not hitting 9th
-
I wouldn't be surprised if Javy has never seen a 3-0 count, because if its 2-0 he's going to swing for the fences no matter what on the next pitch.

id rather be on my couch watching but this isn't bad either. I didnt realize how easy it is to get a quality stream these days. Hypothetically....how easy is it? hypothetically if you google 'live sports streaming' you might come up with several results that stream all sports games. you click on one of them, say "stream2watch.co" as a hypothetical example, then you click on the Cubs game, and 97% of the time its a perfect HD stream

Szczur with Lil Troy as his walkup music hmmm

Jorge!

sounds like a delay is inevitable. Hope not, Lester already threw over 20 pitches
-
Fowler-Zobrist at the top of the lineup is unstoppable.

Yep, the only thing I would have more confidence putting money on is Lenny's bet in the politics thread.

Looks like the wind is blowing out 12 mph to LF. Dong it up boys!

Or that Wrigley is playing more like a hitters park this year than last year. (Which would make sense given that Wrigley bizarrely played as a pitchers park last year for the first time I can remember) Is it? I assumed with all the crappy weather and wind blowing in it would be playing like a pitchers park. But given that the team with the 2nd most RPG in baseball plays there, that might have something to do with it. Edit: Is ESPN's park factors a reliable source? If so, Wrigley was 14th with a .950 runs scored, so slightly below average. This year its 17th at .943. But again, the weather has been really shitty, and last years numbers include a nice July-September where the hitting conditions were mostly great.

Kris Bryant is remarkably consistent 2015 .275/.369/.488/.858, 133 OPS+, 5.9 WAR (B-R) 2016 .279/.368/.503/.870, 133 OPS+, 6.1 WAR (on pace, 151 games played) Power up a tick, but looks like hitting is up in general given the identical OPS+ numbers. Is on pace for 34 2B and 34 HR (in 151 games) vs. 31 and 26 respectively last year.

I have nothing against the Sharks. They bent over for us the only time we played them in the playoffs. Pittsburgh has Trevor Daley who reminds me of Bowman's merry-go-round of blue liners this year and how it failed because Daley has been great, Sharp was good, Scuderi sucked, and Ehrhoff barely played.

David Ross on the score said that Rizzo is not in the lineup today #whosonfirst

Minor League Discussion & Boxes, 5-26-16
UMFan83 replied to CaliforniaRaisin's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
I can't wait until 2-3 years from now when the 2nd wave comes up and the fans of other teams are like "wtf how is this still happening! Make it stop!" -
Very annoying. Then again our bats seem to have woken up thanks to Butters, and they can't keep putting up 9-2 stretches. Facing Atlanta, Colorado and Arizona will certainly help make a team look better. well unless you are the Cubs. They beat up on good teams only
-
These team twitter account exchanges are amusing until you think about the fact that its just 2 bored social media guys tweeting gifs and memes to each other.
-
Pirates are starting to get annoying. 9-2 in their last 11 if they win today, and cut our 9 game lead in half in 11 days
