  1. For me at least they became fun bad maybe 2 weeks ago. Watching them make 3 outs on the bases yesterday, including getting picked off to end the 6th and 8th innings in a 1 run game was hilarious.
  2. You know that if the Cubs managed to take the lead in the late innings the pen absolutely would have blown it
  3. Is it bad that I’m upset Swanson wasn’t picked off to end the game?
  4. And Happ is picked off to end the 8th lol. Did they just give up at this point?
  5. Since the Mexico game and NBA draft are over, I decided to flip to this game for the first time tonight and immediately see Morel get picked off on a back pick from the catcher and immediately flipped to another channel. Yeah no thanks I’m good
  6. The only thing more shocking than this result is the fact that the game has not been stopped for slurs
  7. Wow Mexico choked on an 87th minute PK that would have tied the game.
  8. Rough for Ukraine.... all 4 teams in Group E finish with 4 points, and there will surely be at least 1-2 teams that advance with less than 4 points, but they won't because they finished 4th in the group due to GD.
  9. Cubs now 13-26 in their last 39 games with a -43 RD, playing at a 54-108 pace for roughly 24% of the season. Stretching it out further, 20-34 in their last 54 games, a 60-102 pace for exactly 33% of the season.
  10. This season is basically last year if we didn’t randomly start playing at a 103 win pace for 2.5 months
  11. Dude don’t watch this team unless you’re bored or it’s on in the background when doing something else. Certainly don’t sacrifice anything in your life to watch them.
  12. He was our closer literally yesterday which is hilarious
  13. I have no idea how the stats people keep posting about the bullpen show them only being slightly below average or whatever. I know they stabilized for a bit there outside of some very bad late inning collapses but man this pen is so so bad, even worse with the injuries
  14. The Cubs are worse than even the most negative of us expected before the season started. Pretty impressive. assuming they don’t come back (and who an expect them to score a single run?), their season pace will be 75-87
  15. Cubs got a single, groundball, walk and that’s the inning
  16. Usually when someone has a long AB with a lot of balls fouled off they don’t end the AB by grounding into a double play but Cubs gonna Cubs
  17. Argentina advances but have seemed sluggish
  18. Didn’t Jed say something about wanting to get more contact into the lineup and that the last core was too strikeout prone when he kicked off the rebuild. I mean retool.
  19. Canada needed that goal badly, especially after getting 30+ minutes of 11v10. Might actually advance now.
  20. Oh horsefeathers for some reason i forgot they drew the Netherlands and were sitting on 6 points. My bad
  21. Wouldn’t France win the group with 7 points vs 6 for Austria? either way good stuff though would be a little more exciting if France and Netherlands hadn’t already clinched advancement (though obviously placement plays a big part in your path to win the tournament)
  22. I know it says that the main focus is still Chicago but I believe either: 1) AH has always been the plan and Chicago was leverage or 2) even if Chicago is the preferred option, AH is still the most likely option.
  23. I thought for a second this was an actual trade that happened. I was a little nervous...Nico hasn't had a great year but in general he's been very valuable and someone I'd prefer to keep for the time being.
