  1. One thing I learned from the article is that it's almost July.
  2. So the Dodgers starting pitching outside of Kershaw and mostly Maeda has been disappointing, meanwhile the Giants are starting to run away with the division, while the Nat/Mets and Pirates are putting space between them and the Dodgers in the WC. It's of course early but if he's ready to start once, shouldn't he just join the rotation?
  3. I try not to give 2 shits about the White Sox, and honestly the team doesn't bother me that much. I grew up actually liking both teams, just the Cubs more. But their fans have really ruined it for me, and to see how worked up they get about the Cubs and our fans are like: http://65.media.tumblr.com/8160d0f9846b74c1a27e3784dba8c777/tumblr_nizvh6xAcH1rotnino1_1280.jpg Anyways, this is the most recent thing I read from Sox fans: I know they can't truly believe that jibberish, so I have to assume that they are posting this non-sense in hopes that saying it as much as possible will make it true. Oh and the best part is bragging about winning the World Series in 1917 as one of their 2 titles since the Cubs last one. It makes me laugh that they say the Cubs are losers but they are the team that a) has made the playoffs SIX times since 1919 (vs 12 for the Cubs), b) has made the playoffs 5 times since Chicago baseball took off Octobers for the 60s and 70s (vs 7 for the Cubs), c) have won a playoff series in ONE season since 1919 (vs. 2 for the Cubs), d) have made 2 World Series since 1919 (vs. 5 for the Cubs but not much to brag about since the last was 1945). Yes we can never take away that 2005 World Series, congrats, but if we are losers, they are right there with us.
  4. He's not a productive 40 minute player, but interesting to point out that his per 100 possession numbers for assists and rebounds were career highs last year playing ~20 minutes a game. Obviously his knees will never be completely the same, but taking almost a year off probably has to be a good thing for them. I think he will be something like 75% of old Jo for the next 2-3 years.
  5. Feel like we've had a ton of day games this year, home and road. In this homestand alone, 8 of the 10 games are during the day. Overall, a quick count shows 34 night games, 42 day games, and 3 TBD at Wrigley this year. I feel like we've had more in recent years but I could be wrong.
  6. On the Blues reddit one of the fans said "oh well at least we fucked the Blackhawks" Yeah we are hurting so badly with our 3 recent cup wins
  7. I wish more of this stuff was accessible on youtube. YouTube highlights for the cubs didn't pick up til lately. That's because until about a year or two ago nothing was allowed on YouTube.
  8. Now I can feel a ton of joy that those dumb mouthbreathers in St. Louis got their hopes up only to be let down.
  9. omg that was a lot harder than it should have been hahahaha
  10. This is just the washed up douchebag that I fear in a Cardinals uniform
  11. Got light hitting Tejada and Pitchers spot after this, but the pitchers spot would surely be Carpenter. Well I guess if Rondon gets Grichuk here Carpenter will hit next.
  12. im taking the browser off full screen so its easier to exit out of just in case
  13. Maybe we shouldnt have let Rondon go a week between appearances. Maybe Warren didn't have to try to go 2 innings on Monday night.
  14. unbelievable. Now a bunt and a perfectly placed single and we have our second walkoff loss in 3 games.
  15. 2 strikes, TIME FOR A PERFECTLY PLACED GROUND SINGLE
  16. teams been slumping and can use a win its the cardinals we had a big lead desire to pick up Jake after he's picked up the team so many times over the last 2 seasons.
  17. i really want this W. Can't have no 3-6 road trip
  18. I like when he starts slowing his speech down and you're like "oh man, the game is over for sure" uhh i dont
  19. Ahh this looks like a spot for my arbitrary end point stat of the day. His slash line is .241/.274/.391/.664 in his last 24 games before today
  20. I feel like Zobrist has led off every other inning.
  21. Of course Miggy allows the runner to get to 2nd. Has he ever successfully blocked a ball in the dirt? Why do his pitchers still throw them?
