  1. I think that's definitely the case.
  2. It's going to be like 55. What the [expletive] is wrong with you? I mean...I just went last night and I'm planning on going Saturday and maybe Friday. Am I going to go every time the tickets don't sell? I guess that shouldn't be an issue much longer as the team does better and the weather improves, but with concessions and crap it would start to get expensive. The tickets are a sunk cost. Also I like watching good pitching on TV. You could offer them up to NSBBers for respect points. Of course I move away from lakeview the year before the Cubs are exciting again. At least I got to enjoy going to a ton of games in 2008.
  3. http://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=all&stats=bat&lg=all&qual=0&type=5&season=2008&month=0&season1=2008&ind=0&team=0,ts&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0 Thanks, I went back and edited my post with the comparison.
  4. I want to see how they compare (through 6 games) to the 2008 Cubs, as that was the last time I remember the Cubs working the count well and laying off bad pitches. On Sunday, the game winning 9th inning rally started with a walk. Yesterday, Rizzo started off the 8th inning with a walk right before Soler's HR. In the 9th Montero lead off with a walk and almost scored, and the 10th inning started with another Rizzo walk. Great stuff. Edit: Answered my own question. Top line is 2015 Cubs through 6 games, bottom is 2008 Cubs http://i.imgur.com/NEAPX4R.png
  5. 23.2 IP and 2 ER for pitchers who actually deserve to be in the majors.
  6. Does anyone else get chills when you see the replays of Solers HRs and realize that he is going to mashing balls into those bleachers for the next 6+ years?
  7. Let's ask Aroldis Chapman. http://cdn.meme.am/images/188548.jpg LMAO
  8. Seems to be happening a lot to the Cubs this year. I will take it!
  9. That's gonna help his confidence
  10. FIRST PLACE BITCHES!!! (Don't care if it's 6 games into the season)
  11. Don't worry the gimpy wrested blind man is up after
  12. Dude when you go fishing you save that best piece of bait for the end, because if you haven't gotten any fish by then, you are gonna be hungry dude. Oh wait Dusty isn't the manager anymore
  13. Damn you tinyface trying to ruin Solers thunder
  14. I bet Ben Zobrist never started a season 0-16
  15. can we just name Soler and Bryant co-ROYs now?
  16. Man there's still too many black holes in the lineup. I can't wait until we don't have to see a 6-7-8-9 of Alcantara-Ross-Pitcher-Herrera
  17. He'll be fine. If he's still pitching like this in June you can start to worry. Remember that he basically missed 2 spring starts when he was shut down with a dead arm.
  18. People keep bitching about his velocity on Twitter. Not sure if legit
  19. How is Byrd still a thing? I thought he was too old when we signed him.
