  1. But the funny thing is, Turner has to hit for Workman because he’s likely even more overmatched than Turner. Workman was brought in for defense and made the critical error to blow the lead. Holes all over the place.
  2. Definitely feels like a Mancini/Hosmer move even though it shouldn’t
  3. Just in the months of September 2023, March/April 2024, May 2024 and March/April 2025 I believe we’ve lost 16 different games where we had the lead in the 8th inning or later edit: I for some reason thought it was the bottom of the 9th so I assumed a loss here. I guess it’s closer now
  4. Part of me feels like Jed built this team with glaring holes on purpose to stick it to Ricketts on the way out. 3B is a disaster, our rotation depth is already being tested, we have no good pen arms. But we saved $25m on payroll this year so that’s nice
  5. Hopefully the next FO can build an average pen
  6. Well this will be the 4th game this year the Cubs had a lead in the 8th inning or later and lost if they don’t come back
  7. Who replaced Little who walked 4 guys in his outing lol
  8. Glad Jed built a pen that is deep and full of options in Iowa.
  9. Love when everyone gets excited about the wind blowing out hard and here we are 2-1 in the bottom of the 7th
  10. I believe the last time the United Center hosted a Bulls or Blackhawks game in the month of May or later was 10 years ago when the Hawks won the Cup at the UC. Pathetic.
  11. I was looking at Friday at least, it doesn’t look like the rain is starting until the evening. Should be mid to upper 70s at game time. Saturday actually currently has a dry window from 1-4 (obv things can change)
  12. Rea, Brown and Taillon going against Burnes, Gallen and Kelly this weekend. DBacks red hot too, on their way to winning 6 of their last 7. Hopefully we can cool them down
  13. This season will be considered a massive success for the ownership and FO
  14. Have not watched the Bulls much this year. Do they usually allow uncontested layups on every defensive possession?
  15. How hard is it to find decent relievers that throw strikes?
  16. If I’m not doing anything else. But I’ll probably forget and then check the score in the 4th and watch if it’s close
  17. Getting mowed down. Off day tomorrow might be needed.
  18. Another ball that could have easily been an out goes for an IF hit
  19. Not even close. Wonder what the Cubs saw to make them challenge that.
  20. Seems like the offense has slowed down over the past week outside of the very notable exception of the 16-0 game that you obviously can't just discredit.
  21. He says a half inning after the Cubs started a rally under similar circumstances 😀
  22. 1 is better than 0 but yeah with 2-3-4 due up that's pretty disappointing.
  23. I couldn't believe they didn't score. I was actually getting ready for bed and had it on my phone. When I saw where the ball was hit I assumed the game was tied. Then I noticed a minute later it was still 2-1. I would have thought that even if they weren't going on contact they had a chance of scoring.
