  1. They are definitely the worst at bringing home runners on 3rd with less than 2 outs
  2. Anyone else wish we got more than 1 run with the bases loaded and 0 outs?
  3. And we're losing just like that. wow does our rotation suck after Lester and Jake
  4. I can't wait until Joe Maddon has a "bullpen game" for game 2 of the NLDS
  5. I'm sure you can find plenty of examples where we did continue to add to the lead and won because of it. What's your point?
  6. Cubs have scored in the 1st in 4 of the last 5 games. Are 1-2 in the first 3 games
  7. So another 0-3 with RISP to start the game (error, DP, fly out)
  8. I wouldn't say trash but he has been in a mini slump recently. Hope he can get out of it by playoff time. Pointed this out in the Rizzo thread but he has an OPS around .700 with a BA around .190 over the last 30 games. Not absolutely terrible or anything but definitely an extended slump, his second such extended slump in the last 4 months, although the previous one was noticeably worse
  9. Coghlan would be a big loss too. Let's start realizing how good of a year he's having Yes, I don't want to see any Cub hurt but I'd like to not have 2 pitcher level hitters batting when Lester is starting if you catch my drift.
  10. I have a hard time believing that's not a season ender
  11. Dammit Rizzo, hit better by 10/7 please
  12. I find it hard to talk about Rizzo for MVP when he's hitting .196 .300 .402 .702 over his last 30 games and .242 .345 .460 .806 in his last 90 I love Riz to pieces but he's not the MVP this year. Maybe next year.
  13. treebird owes us a photoshop history of something for abandoning us when we need him the most.
  14. Also some smart baseball people tell me I'm a meatball and this is nonsense.. Arrieta is averaging 111 pitches per start in his last 9 games and 115 his last 4 starts. He has already blown by his highest IP season and seems to be getting a heavier workload as the season goes on. Look I want to win the divison and I want to have home field for the WC game as a fallback, but at the end of the day we will be playing in the playoffs, and a sharp Arrieta makes me extremely confident in advancing to the LDS regardless. I worry that Jake is going to be gassed when we need him the most and not sharp because he's been throwing 115+ pitches a game for the past 5 weeks.
  15. Congrats. Now bring Soler back to Chicago to impart his championship pedigree on the Cubs
  16. We've surpassed our 2009 win total and have now won the most games since 2008
  17. I thought that was a hit off the bat! Cubs win!
  18. This is brutal. This is like the 7th pitch where we are one strike away
  19. Berry ran to Chicago during the commercial break to kiss his kids goodnight
  20. He will break the world record for 100m while chasing down a fly ball in RF
  21. Why would it be anyone else? He threw 11 pitches last inning
