  1. Damn. I didn't even realize that the Cubs now lead the NL Central in runs scored and are 5th in the NL. I'm pretty sure around the AS Break we were something like 4th in the Central and 10th in the league
  2. The homer hurt but it was his only XBH allowed all game which followed his only walk of the game. Again I'm not saying it was a great start by any means but it wasn't terrible.
  3. Yeah, I apologize. I was being an ass. My only complaint with you is the knee-jerk reaction stuff. You're no ARCubsFan. agreed. i honestly like almost everyone on here even if they are infuriating at times. at least the ones that appear to be cubs fans... NSBB right now: http://i.imgur.com/tHdUgNM.jpg I think we've had a breakthrough guys
  4. Maybe if the Cubs defense didn't commit 3 errors his pitch count would be a lot lower and he wouldn't have given up 4 runs (2 earned). I'm not happy with how Hammel has pitched but all in all he is having a decent enough start. Not what you'd expect for a 3rd starter on a playoff team but not a terrible start overall
  5. Damn Fowler crushed that and it wouldn't have even made it out if it was fair. Wind must be bad Also we are having some bad luck on hard hit balls tonight. We've been smashing the ball almost all game.
  6. Shocking on both accounts. "hey everybody i was going to say something patently wrong, but then i looked it up and realized how completely wrong i would have been" At least he's learning. Maybe eventually he won't post about it at all or will frame it in a positive way
  7. Gotta admit Hammel is throwing a solid game. 4 IP, 4 H (all singles) 0 BB, 6 K Has 78 pitches through 4 innings but part of that is due to 3 errors by the Cubs defense
  8. Damn you Hammel just strike out like you are supposed to :lol:
  9. Montero is pissed. 2 ABs with runners on 3rd and 0 outs and 0 runs scored
  10. Oof. Make them pay and break this open.
  11. Did Rizzo just do the helmet rub there? I thought that was only for driving runners in?
  12. [expletive] Fowler Edit: OK he was safe I'm stupid
  13. How hard is the wind blowing in? I'm kind of interested to see if the Cubs offense adjusts well now that evenings are a bit cooler and less likely to have the wind blowing out.
  14. I'm probably going insane but I'm coming close to agreeing with this. I could totally see Maddon doing this too. Edit: ok not for all non-Lester/arrieta starts but maybe in place of a 4th starter, given we don't have expanded rosters in the playoffs
  15. is it bad that the 2 "bullpen days we have had recently have yielded better results than the average recent Hammel/Haren/Hendricks start
  16. 2007 and 2008 were fun. The rest of the time afterwards I was just bitching about the traffic
  17. Just making a point that there are worst things than posting slash lines over selected time periods. I'm not mad, just messing around. Carry on
