[tweet] [/tweet] Getting way ahead of myself but don't make any plans on Wednesday, October 7th. To be safe I'd avoid October 9,10,12,13 and 14 as well (that's how they usually do it right? 2 on, 1 off, 3 on?)

In-Market Streaming Of MLB Games Coming To Some Markets In 2016
UMFan83 replied to Banedon's topic in General Baseball Talk
Come on CSN (and WGN and ABC), make an agreement. I got a taste of streaming Bulls games on my phone last year and it really makes no sense to be why you can't do this with all sports you are paying to view via cable packages. Especially because it seems like they've uncovered a way to monitize it as well as over the air broadcasts. -
Love Toni, and love how he made Chicago his home. I remember when he used to play for the Bucks he would live in Highland Park and commute to Milwaukee for games.

Meh, jealousy I presume. There have also been a lot of comments straight up saying the Cubs got their [expletive] together and have a team to be feared for the next decade while lamenting the state of the White Sox. The weak competition comments are my favorite part as I believe they are 27-18 (.600) vs +500 teams (4-9 agains the Cardinals and 23-9 against everyone else) and 40-31 (.563) against teams under .500. The winning % against +500 teams is 2nd best in the MLB behind the Cardinals.

Perhaps until 2017?
-
Yeah I'm in the "make sure you get in" camp of rooting. But really all that matters is the Cubs win and were guaranteed to gain ground somewhere.
-
Btw what a chump that Butters dude is
-
It might take 94 wins to make the playoffs in the NL
-
Guess it's down to 3 teams and 2 playoff spots
-
Alright since the Pirates are going win per usual, best case the next time we take the field is 8 back of St Louis, 2 back of Pittsburgh, 5 up on the Giants. Worst case is 8 back of St Louis, 3 back of Pittsburgh and 3 ahead of the Giants This is assuming you'd prefer the Cardinals to beat SF

Back to the bench for you Starlin
-
And Fowlers infield single yesterday which was equally obvious
-
Castro. Your very legacy as a Cub rests on whether or not you homer here
-
These umps really desperate to give the White Sox a win in this series
-
Lol
-
Maybe just maybe all the emphasis on showing the strike zone on broadcasts will cause angroundswell for robot umps. At least for balls and strikes
-
2 balls were called strikes In that AB. Soler could have easily walked in a run there
-
Wow. Terrible call ump
-
Gah would be nice to get at least 1-2
-
Tie it up KB
-
Suck it no hitter
-
I know he hasn't been nearly as bad to this point but this reminds me of when we traded for Trachsel in 2007 to be the 5th starter down the stretch and he just got lit up to the point where he was demoted to the pen by the end of the year
-
Congrats to Haren on taking the league lead in home runs allowed
-
Weird I thought that looked gone off the bat
-
2 runs in 4 innings against a team that has actually been doing well offensively for a while isn't bad at all. I was more referring to the amount of home runs he gives up. The overall results are fine but 6 hits in 4 innings is poor. His ability to scatter the base runners he allows has been quite remarkable so far as a Cub.
