  1. Umps really hate the Cubs. I like to pretend they also think it’s ridiculous that the Ricketts are so cheap so this is their way of showing their displeasure.
  2. Is Suzuki available or are the Cubs just doing that thing where they play a man down for the entire length of a normal IL trip?
  3. If this was a season that mattered I would be so frustrated with the ridiculous number of injuries the Cubs currently have.
  4. And both starters are TBD tomorrow with Miley going on the IL
  5. While 100% true, is there any context for mentioning this?
  6. Can’t imagine this is what they were looking for when they made this stupid extra innings rule
  7. Sox tie the game on a ground ball to where the 3B usually plays, a check swing IF single and a passed ball by our 3rd string catcher
  8. Cubs had 2 flyouts at Wrigley against the Sox that would have been home runs at GRate, one directly costing the Cubs a win. Now Schwindel hit a double here that would have been a HR at Wrigley and ends up being stranded.
  9. And of course the Cubs get a runner on 3rd with 0 outs and don’t score
  10. Schwindel is one of the worst 1B I’ve ever seen at picking throws that bounce. Like it’s glaringly bad
  11. I know Cease has pitched well but 105 pitchers and is in a jam in the 7th. Seems odd in today’s baseball to keep him in
  12. Stroman with 1 baserunner allowed in 4 innings. Cubs have a little more success against Cease but haven’t scored yet. Also for those that don’t visit the minor league forum but keep track of the minors it looks like Velazquez is coming up to Chicago
  13. Horvath even got some burn in the championship game, coming on for the last few minutes due to what I think was an injury to the other keeper
  14. Ok we got our usual 3 early runs. Time to hold on for dear life
  15. I didn’t know Cueto was on the Sox. Most of us probably won’t watch but in case something worth discussing happens here you go. A team has swept the season series only twice since they started playing in 1997: 1998 Cubs swept the Sox 3-0 at Wrigley 2013 Cubs swept the Sox 4-0 with 2 games in each location. Sox are up 2-0 with 2 to play
  16. Well at least Liverpool won the FA Cup Edit: And Carabao cup. And they still have derbies to play next year
  17. Here's what he wrote about it:
  18. Here is a dozen examples of Seiya getting a called strike on a ball this year.
  19. I mean I guess its fine to give them credit, but we're talking about them doing something that like 25 other teams are also doing. Yes it would be very Cub like to be one of the handful of teams not doing it though I guess as the Cubs seem completely incapable of doing the right thing. Not gonna tell you how to interpret this, but only 11 teams were doing both(EXST pay, own bedroom in every affiliate) according to the Twitter account: https://twitter.com/MiLBAdvocates/status/1529972093047169027/photo/2 My bad, I just read the tweet where it said the Brewers and Reds were 2 of the few teams. Should make sure I'm educated on the matter before offering praise and/or criticism. I...just cant help myself when I comes to the Cubs
