    Most web gemmed team ever
  2. UMFan83
    Ok I looked it up. The Reds have hit as many HRs in 6 innings as the Cubs have over the last 12 games.
  3. UMFan83
    Yowza. The Reds have hit more HRs tonight than the Cubs have hit the last 65 games. At least it seems like that
  4. UMFan83
    [expletive] fowler you got the heart of the order up
  5. UMFan83
    Guess we can't hold them under 3 runs every game. Step up offense
  6. UMFan83
    We have the worst line drive luck ever
  7. UMFan83
    If those stats come true, the Cubs are probably right there in the mix for the division at the end of the season.
  8. UMFan83
    Yeah I don't blame them either. I don't think people were expecting a ton back but I think at that point we were hoping for prospects with upside not a couple of guys who hadn't achievef much in a good deal of MLB time. I'm sure everyone is happy to be wrong
  9. UMFan83
    Good riddance
  10. UMFan83
    Lol we've had like 9 pitches where the Cubs were a strike away but we play on
  11. UMFan83
    walk/strikeout? Yeah. Last 23 PA: 12K, 4BB, 2 hits
  12. UMFan83
    Bryant becoming a two true outcomes guy
  13. UMFan83
    Ugh I hate that I hate Strop
  14. UMFan83
    Seriously. Or just find a way to increase offense. I appreciate a good pitchers duel but not every game.
  15. UMFan83
    Bryant has struck out in 10 of his last 17 AB
  16. UMFan83
    baseball in 2015 is so annoying I have a feeling (or at least want to believe) that Soler will have a Rizzo in 2014 like breakout next season
  17. UMFan83
    Someone show me a statistic that shows how ridiculously unlucky Soler has been
  18. UMFan83
    Haha I'll take runs however we get them
  19. UMFan83
    Alright 3 more outs and we survive another game we only score 2 runs in
  20. UMFan83
    Well we got our castro hit for the week I guess expecting another would have been greedy
  21. UMFan83
    That was a fun half
  22. UMFan83
    At least for me, it's not about being relaxed. We are closing in on August. What they are is what they are. I'm still highly optimistic about the future of this franchise and love the things that have taken shape for the long-term health of the organization. I believe Bryant, Rizzo, Soler, Schwarber and Russell are going to make one hell of a batting order. But not this year. They just can't score runs. I appreciate those who are optimistic and believe things have to turn around. I'm just not at that point anymore, and I so very much hope I'm wrong. It does not matter who we play. It does not. If you are only going to score two or fewer runs per game, you can't enjoy any sort of sustained stretch of success. And I have stopped believing that the offense is going to heat up at this point. How can you possibly think this with a lineup full of 22 and 23 year olds as the key players? what the hell does any of that even mean? "just not at that point anymore?" And i'm going to go ahead and state confidently that we will not score 2 or fewer runs per game the rest of the season. Comments like that are EXACTLY what i'm talking about and referring to as needing to relax. WTF? Yeah whoops I stand corrected
  23. UMFan83
    I think it's been pretty reasonable discussion about how while the team as a whole is performing to expectations the entire offense has been sucking for a fairly lengthy stretch. Pointing out negatives doesn't necessarily equal freaking out. Didn't watch the game but heard about a bad throw and a catchers interference. Might have been another miscue I missed
  24. UMFan83
    That's insane..Bryant is the only hitter with a slugging % over .360 over the last 14 days
  25. UMFan83
    Record wise the Cubs are right at my expectations, maybe slightly exceeding. I didn't expect the offense to be this dismal though. Even Rizzo stopped hitting.
