    Oh hell horsefeathers yeah. But I'm super biased (obviously)

    No Jeanty to Bears. Raiders took him. Trade down?
  3. UMFan83
    Id be upset for about 3 minutes that we gave up (likely) a high 2nd to move up for a RB. And then after that I’d spend the next 4 months dreaming about how awesome our offensive is going to be.
  4. UMFan83
    Same, they don't seem to go away. That said their schedule has had some tough games but also quite a few easy ones. They're 9-4 in the easy games and 4-8 in the tougher games. Comparatively the Cubs are 3-0 in easy games and 13-10 in tougher games (13-8 in the North America)

    lol I didn’t even realize this but the Cubs “break” from their rough early season schedule consists of one 3 game series in Pittsburgh before then playing 3 against the Brewers (13-11), 3 against the Giants (15-9) and 3 against the Mets (18-7) THEN finally we get a reprieve with 21 straight games against teams who are currently under .500

    Funny to highlight Boyd’s quality start when his 3 UER were caused by his error.
  7. UMFan83
    To be fair he did get back that out when he picked off the runner
  8. UMFan83
    Starting pitching has been rough lately
  9. UMFan83
    That PCA ball is a HR in 3 parks (Houston, NYY, TB)
  10. UMFan83
    At least it’s not an oblique (yet)
  11. UMFan83
    I just want to point out that Ohtani has gone 1-16 against the Cubs since his BS HR in Japan. Karma?

    Key to Cubs success: Bullpen allowing 5+ runs in an inning
  13. UMFan83
    It’s almost like he’s a Double A player the Cubs are trying to hold onto for…reasons and are forced to play because the Cubs couldn’t adequately address the 3B position in the offseason partially due to a massive payroll cut. either work out a trade with Detroit or send him back over there
  14. UMFan83
    And they’ll be right more frequently than they should be. meanwhile Jed still picking up marginal guys to try to find lightning in a bottle (I know he doesn’t have a ton of options at this point, but that’s what the offseason was for)
  15. UMFan83
    Is the new stat I get to track this year “games where the Cubs have the lead and the pen gives up 5+ runs without recording an out”?
  16. UMFan83
    The holes on this Cub team are being exposed again. If only we had enough money for a better 3B and bullpen
  17. UMFan83
    Gonna remind myself the Cubs scored 2 runs on ridiculous bloops last inning before I complain about not scoring a run there
  18. UMFan83
    Has not pitched in the majors since 2021? Wtf
  19. UMFan83
    I can't tell if I hate the modern NBA simply because the Bulls have sucked and been irrelevant during this entire era or because I don't like the style of basketball. It might be both....because the Bulls have sucked Ive followed the NBA less and less. When I do put it on, it looks completely different than the basketball I remember. I kind of liked it when the Golden State era started because what they were doing looked so different than everyone else, but now the its the norm I don't enjoy it. But then again, the era before that was just star guards going iso and drawing fouls all game so that wasn't particularly beautiful basketball either. But I do miss post play and turnaround jumpers.
  20. UMFan83
    Well that sucks. Oh well 2/3
  21. UMFan83
    Anyways I’m glad I only melted down moderately when times were tough today.
  22. UMFan83
    I could definitely see the official scorer changing it to an error.
  23. UMFan83
    As much as I rail on Jed, acquiring 2 of the 5 best hitters in baseball (Tucker and Kelly) over a 24 hour span is pretty impressive.
  24. UMFan83
    I think Pat said on the radio that the most combined runs in an inning is 19. We “only” combined for 16
  25. UMFan83
    Not as cool but in the last 2 games the Cubs have played Arizona they’ve scored 9 runs in the 8th inning combined. And split those games.
