  1. Grimm has been shaky lately it seems like. I know the Rizzo error led to this but still
  2. Oh yeah, I believe it was a weekday afternoon game against the Reds where the [obscure former player] homered to left field" meme started after he gave up 4-5 HRs
  3. I would much rather play the Cardinals. If we win we kill any sort of "fear" of playing the Cardinals for the entirety of this run with the current core. If we lose, at least it's in 1 game and not some agonizingly frustrsting 3-5 games. And then you go into the actual match ups and I think the Cubs have a better chance of winning against St Louis. Plus Matheny would find some way to [expletive] over the Cardinals. But let's just win the division so we let the other two worry about it
  4. Woo hoo! 1-2 more games and I say we start rounding up the doubters who stopped caring about how the Cardinals were doing
  5. could conceivably be 4.5 games out by the time we hit the pillow tonight, so that'd be fun Man it would be so awesome to be within 5 games when we play them next weekend because I think we will sweep them
  6. I better not have to use the Blame CT gif
  7. Cubs will be on pace for 95 wins if they finish this off. Boggles my mind that they are on pace to finish just 2.5 games behind the 2008 team
  8. Including a Clevenger grand slam...guess they won that trade
  9. Looks like Cardinals/Reds was suspended in the 8th inning tied at 2 and will be resumed tomorrow. Cubs can pull within 6 games tonight.
  10. Well as long as that runner on 1st doesn't score it's a quality start for Hendricks
  11. Of course. The 10 year old in all of us wants pretty counting stats like RBIs and Wins. It's not a problem until you start using those counting stats to evaluate players
  12. So last week Fowler goes 0-4 with 4 Ks. Next game his first 2 ABs were a HR and 2B. Wednesday Schwarber goes 0-4 with 4 K. Next game first 2 ABs are HRs. Lesson? Unless the division is on the line, in the last game of the season everyone purposely strike out every AB.
  13. Hah, I actually had a similar thought after ball 4
  14. What a terrible ball 3...the hitter started walking back to the dugout. And then gets squeezed on what should have been a makeup call. Bs
  15. Tom, you need to hire these guys for radio next year. Kick Pat and Ron to the curb. Pat can stay if he wants to call an inning here or there.
  16. It's been 4 batters since a dong...I'm fiending
  17. Cubs magic number hits 14 on a day the Cubs are playing 2
  18. Cubs need to go 9-14 to win 90 games for the second time in the past 26 years (in 162 games aka not counting 1998)
