  1. http://m.cubs.mlb.com/chc/video/topic/70087564/v302995383/colchc-bryant-walks-cubs-off-with-tworun-homer I feel like this past weekend and top of the 9th ruined Len's spirits. He called that off the bat like it was a warning track fly out. He's been very angsty latest battling Twitter trolls and complaining about them publicly. I think Cubs fans broke his spirit because he used to be so laid back and easy going
  2. So "don't look at the numbers look at their stuff" and then "let's trade for a big money closer who hasn't had good stuff this year"
  3. I'm not saying your necessarily wrong but I don't remember anyone saying that about Motte. Maybe 3 weeks ago but if you look at the advance stats you could see things weren't looking good. And who is saying That Strop is the worst pitcher in the pen? Lol
  4. 2 things from watching the celebration again: 1) no bubble gum bucket hat on Herrera. DFA 2) Soriano started jumping up and down and congratulating Bryant before he must have realized (wait I suck) and then kind of just walks away from the crowd of players
  5. I've been on this "chill out and stop overreacting" kick and I was about to throw it away and go circa 2008 UMfan up in this [expletive]
  6. Im not going to lie, I was not expecting that. More Cubs/Rockies magic
  7. The cubs do [expletive] in the clutch. Don't expect anything. This team has absolved itself of any hope for the rest of the season. They had a chance to go to 9 games above .500 and they've performed like steamy garbage ever since. It's inexcusable. Yeah nothing at all in the clutch that's why they lead baseball in walkoff wins
  8. I don't understand if Maddon is supposed to be this smart manager he doesn't see the advanced stats that suggest that he's due to suck. I don't necessarily care if the best reliever is a closer, I mean we've made the playoffs with Borowski and Dempster as our closers, but Motte is definitely not the guy when you have guys like Grimm and Strop (assuming you use Rondon for high leverage situations)
  9. So glad Ross is batting 3rd instead of Schwarber. his pitch framing really kept the Cubs in this one
  10. I get not wanting to put the go ahead run on but you are facing the hottest hitter in baseball who has crushed you tonight already. Plus walking him sets up a possible double play
  11. Oh I forgot. Only the most dangerous part of the Rockies order too
  12. Oh god. Maybe the only one I want in there less than Motte
  13. Wow this is a disaster. Single from tying it
  14. That was the first XBH of the inning to score the 6th run
  15. This is actually good. Castro can't GIDP here. A grounder might actually score a run. And they won't walk him because Hendricks will be PH
