Weirdest season ever.
I think at our best we were 7 games clear of a playoff spot. Now we can be out of the playoffs with a Diamondbacks win tonight
still 12-13 in our last 25 games!
Update on my kid's roller coaster of emotions in his first season following baseball: he think's its a night game today and I haven't corrected him yet because I know he'll waste this beautiful day getting upset about baseball if he knows.
I know the old timers who have posted with me for 20 years think this is karma for me lol
PCA doesn’t challenge a clear ball on 3-0 in the 9th inning down 3. I know they only have one left but at this point you aren’t going to have many more chances to challenge calls
Maybe but it won’t be Counsell. They’re still technically in a playoff spot right now which I realize is like the pig flying through the air in the Simpsons with Homer saying “it’s still good it’s still good” but they won’t fire him. Won’t be Hottovy either. Maybe the hitting coach.
It’s kind of wild how jarring it is to go from getting used to experiencing a Cubs win almost every day for close to a month to immediately experiencing a Cubs loss almost every day for 2.5 weeks.
The Cubs haven’t had a lead since the White Sox hit their walk off HR last Sunday. In those 5 games, the Cubs have only finished an inning tied in 4 innings
