  1. I’d love to keep the moral high ground here, but I can’t help but wonder what the fallout would be if Rucker put one behind a Cardinal batter right now.
  2. I always thought GWR had a semblance of rationality compared to the larger Cardinals fan base, but nope they reacted to the Happ thing just like everyone else https://gatewayredbirds.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=68349&start=10
  3. Just realized none of the other division or WC contenders play tonight so free 0.5 game for the Cubs in both races with a win. 4 GB WC and 5.5 GB division if we finish this off.
  4. It’s Jed I’m worried about edit: whoops responding to someone from 2 weeks ago
  5. Cubs have now scored 5+ runs in 16 of their last 21 games
  6. Early multi run 1st inning lead against the Cardinals with a chance to get to .500. Let’s end it different this time
  7. Yep Happ was trying to purposely injure his teammate from the previous 6 seasons on…his backswing? Lmao
  8. He heard you and decided to shut you up by homering in the 2nd inning of game 2. Edit: Oh horsefeathers Derwood you really pissed him off. Just hit a second HR
  9. Our new ownership is not a fan of megathreads. In the past pretty much all of our discussions were megathreads. It takes some getting used to but its fine. Brock thinks it will elicit more conversation and activity if we make separate threads for things. With regards to selling, it seems like Jed is looking for a reason not to sell. The only way I'd be ok with selling is if there were some elite prospects being offered...it sounds stupid to say this but more 40-45 FV prospects isn't a big needle mover for me and eventually there will be a 40 man reckoning. At some point we'll need to consolidate some of that depth.
  10. I was going to say thats really strange to only play a division opponent once on the road even with the new schedule format but forgot that the Cardinals sacrificed one of their home series for the London trip. I'll take it!
  11. Another mostly bad day for other results. The Reds did lose, but at the expense of the Brewers. Cubs remain 6 gb in the Central The Diamondbacks also lost, but the Marlins and Phillies won and the Giants are leading late, so assuming the Giants win, the Cubs will gain 0.5 games in the Wild Card and finish the night 4.5 GB Cant believe the Diamondbacks are out of a playoff spot currently. 5-14 this month for them.
  12. I guess I’ll take a draw given how this match started. Assuming everyone beats Vietnam, USA will advance with a result against Portugal and be eliminated with a loss
  13. Cubs offense has been really solid this month. Since 7/2, they’ve scored at least 3 runs in every game except 1 (where they scored 2 runs) and have scored 5+ runs in 14 of their last 20 games
  14. 3rd time in his last 6 starts that he couldn’t make it out of the 4th inning.
  15. Lmao can’t even get 1 out on that play? Yikes.
  16. Who would have thought trading Stroman could actually increase the Cubs chances of making the playoffs this year /s Hes been pretty bad since the London series/blister. Wonder what’s going on with him…contract stuff getting to him maybe? I mean he’s not a 2.28 ERA pitcher or whatever he was before this run but hes pitching like Taillon has most of this season.
