    Go ahead run in scoring position with 2 outs and their 3 hitter up

    6-3, 2 outs in the 8th inning, Cubs lose 6-1, 2 outs in the 8th inning….

    Jed’s world

    Hilarious. So happy to be on the other side of this now where it doesn’t bother me
  6. UMFan83
    Was gonna be so annoyed if we failed to score there again
  7. UMFan83
    He did. Really nice one

    This is why a team with ridiculously good SP is 4 games under .500. That and the pen. Not a ton of variance between this team being 10 games over .500 vs 4 games under TBH

    I’m glad you made this thread because I was gonna pick some stupid funny title and couldn’t think of anything good. Best I had was Yan’t Here Anymore

    *checks the score for the first time tonight* Yeah no I'm not falling for that horsefeathers again. Good luck and godspeed

    You all might be talking about it in the game thread but I’m ignoring the Cubs tonight. Big enough name to get his own thread IMO. If he’s not the GOAT, he’s on the very very short list of greatest players ever

    One thing weird about Wesneski is that he was such a disaster vs. LHB last year with a .986 OPS against in 159 PA. This year in 69 PA his OPS against vs. LHB is down to .515. On the downside his numbers against RHB have gone up from .618 to .751.

    Assad is more valuable to us long term as a starter and he's excelling in that role. This year isn't completely toast but its horsefeathered enough that I'm more interested in how these pieces can fit for the future rather than ripping people out of roles they are excelling in so that they can plug holes our GM neglected in the offseason.

    Seriously what is he even going for there? Did he lose a bet?
  15. UMFan83
    Got it. To not even be considering it would be wild
  16. UMFan83
    Hey its me the negative stat guy at your service! If you are counting games that the Cubs have had a lead in the 8th inning or later but went on to lose, that's 10 losses
  17. UMFan83
    Apparently Craig isnt even close to removing Neris from the closers role based on his postgame comments
  18. UMFan83
    Cubs are now 0.5 games away from having the 6th worst record in baseball. It will be hard to drop further than that as the next team is 4.5 games ahead of the Cubs but I believe in them, they can get there.

    I think it’s funny that Jed preached flexibility and smart spending but in reality the Cubs are kind of boxed in for the next 1-2 seasons outside of help from the farm. He has a glut of highly paid average to below average players that have very little trade value but are under contract for a couple of years. There is *some* flexibility but nowhere near what Jed was obsessing over. They’re kind of hosed for the next 2 years unless the Cubs swing some very advantageous trades and get lucky or the vaunted farm system starts giving the Cubs position players with star level production

    I believe that’s the 10th loss when leading in the 8th inning or later. Like you can’t even make this horsefeathers up, there are bad players and bad decisions and all that but the team also just feels shakebit. What are ya gonna do?
  21. UMFan83
    2 weeks ago I was angry Last week I was saying I wasn’t even angry anymore but still felt the sting. I felt absolutely nothing when I saw the HR. Just kind of a “meh, oh well”
  22. UMFan83
    That’s horsefeathers hilarious. Keep sending him out there haha
  23. UMFan83
    This team is 100% incapable of having any sort of comfortable win
  24. UMFan83
    Debating whether to laugh or cry when Neris walks the leadoff man. Tough choice
  25. UMFan83
    3 run leads are very rare for the Cubs, this should be cause for a parade down Michigan Ave Edit: nevermind they already gave up a run. But still
