2 on, 0 out with a 1 run lead and we bunt into a double play, wow -
Guess these games are big. Bringing in our closer with 2 outs and no one on just to face their best hitter. Good stuff
-
Swanson for some reason watches strike 3 with a runner on 3rd and 1 out with the Cubs holding a late 1 run lead. Bet he wants that one back.
-
Scoreboard check: Brewers down 8-4 (chance to get to within 4.5 in the central if scores hold) Diamondbacks down 4-0 (currently out of playoffs but ahead of Cubs) Phillies up 2-1 (holding one of the WC spots) Marlins win 6-5 (similar to DBacks situation) Reds and Giants playing later.

Shaving the mustache means Wisdom means business

Funny thing is the Cardinals only put 2 lefties in the lineup, albeit 2 in the first 3 hitters. But it didn’t really do much. Would have rather Smyly started and gone 2 times through the order and then Wesneski piggybacking him. If you do it that way you can use Wesneski for as long as you need him for.

Stupid GIDPs
-
Lars Nootbar loves this Cubs opener crap. Homered to lead off the game against both openers (Fulmer and Wes), and then greeted Smyly with a double when he entered last game and another HR tonight
-
What a stupid horsefeathers decision
-
Dammit I thought Mancini had that one. I usually have a pretty good feel for HR balls off the bat on TV unless it’s dead center and I was pretty sure it was gone
-
Bahahahahahahahaha
-
Apparently Chip Caray went on the Score a few minutes ago to double down on his rant last night about unwritten rules and all that horsefeathers. What a horsefeathers tool.
-
Sure..they are close enough to the playoffs now that it seems stupid to trade Bellinger, especially with the QO available for him as a fallback. Stroman is a little trickier but if he's genuine about wanting to stay with the Cubs they'll have all the opportunity in the world to resign him if they want to. Other than those 2 any sell pieces were going to be minor deals anyways. They don't need to go crazy and make bold buy moves, but 1-2 smaller moves for a reliever and a corner IF would go a long way to helping the team continue the push without having to hurt the future of the team all that much.

The Cubs pythag record is 57-45 lol
-
Remember the poll was for when the Cubs went over .500 again. Still one more hill to climb!
-
We did it! .500!
-
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.
-
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
-
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.

The pride of Fremd High School!

It’s Jed I’m worried about edit: whoops responding to someone from 2 weeks ago
-
Steele looks gassed out there
-
Cubs have now scored 5+ runs in 16 of their last 21 games
-
Early multi run 1st inning lead against the Cardinals with a chance to get to .500. Let’s end it different this time
