  1. Does Schwarbers FC count as one? Then yes... 0-7 this game and 0-16 in the series
  2. That's an AB where I would have liked Starlin to be less aggressive since Rizzo just walked on 4 pitches. It was a good pitch to hit, and Starlin hit it hard but obviously it wasn't hit to the right spot.
  3. Please don't erase your great day with a GIDP here Starlin. PLEASE
  4. Obviously he's got the no-no going, but I think he's at 82 pitches through 6. If he's efficient he can get a CG but likely that it would take 120 pitches to get it done at this point.
  5. This dude had 53 pitches through 2 innings. I cannot believe he's finished 6 innings.
  6. I love how Mattingly sits a struggling Peterson the first 2 games and then throws him out against Arrieta.
  7. Arrieta's hopefully the reason we're going to win tonight. However, the offense isn't making any reassurances. Cubs overall are 0-13 with RISP this series, 4-34 this road trip, and if you tack on the Cleveland game, 5-39 this week.
  8. Cubs 0-4 with RISP tonight 0-13 in the series. Only runs scored on a solo HR, Sac fly, Balk and a HR with a runner on 1st
  9. gotta get those demons in shape [expletive] ha
  10. Would have been nice to clear it with an XBH :)
  11. 7 hits and 72 pitches through 3. But I'm not sure I want him to be pulled
  12. Starlin hitting about .325 with a .775ish ops since the benching.
  13. I'd rather get St. Louis too for some reason. Possibly because I think we'd have a better shot of knocking off the Cardinals in a 1 game playoff than in a 5 game series. One game to exercise the demons
  14. Pirates actually lost Satanic Fowl are up 6-4 in the 7th
  15. Second straight game against LHP that Schwarber is sitting Fowler 8 Denofria 9 Bryant 5 Rizzo 3 Castro 4 Szczur 7 Montero 2 Arrieta 1 Russell 6
  16. Id say the banning but that happened halfway through this streak. I'll blame it on the SI cover. 1-4 and outscored 27-14 since then
  17. I say if we lose today we have either Butters, SSR or soccer10k start the next game thread. Time to bring out the big guns.
  18. Man that Lester ERA by month [expletive] is legit April, June, August: ERAs over 5 May, July: ERA under 2
  19. FML This is like June all over again with our hitting with RISP
  20. They made him leave before completing 5. I'm sorry that variance didn't go our way tonight, like it has about 10 times already this month. Oh, I know. What's more frustrating is the fact that the Cardinals and Pirates, two teams also prone to baseball variance, don't [expletive] lose. They've been winning all the matchups they're supposed to win. So have we. You probably aren't supposed to win series against the Dodgers and Giants at their place. Based on pitching matchups the Cubs had the favorable matchup in 3 games, disadvantage in 2 games and probably a push in 1 (peavy/hendricks). We lost the push game and by virtue of playing in 2 very tough parks to win you probably lose a game you shouldn't have
