    Cubs outscored by 6 runs in a split series against the Reds, nice job
  2. UMFan83
    I keep seeing this. Is he making a bunch of nice defensive plays or something? Really haven't watched much of the Cubs at all in the last week or so. He is a useful player at a bunch of positions and is holding his own at the plate right now. Cool. My following of the Cubs lately is 'oh the Cubs scored 3 runs, who scored them?' and I haven't seen Morel a ton. A few times yes. Obviously not a way to evaluate a ballplayer lol, the Cubs just have me apathetic.

    I see the Cubs have gotten their customary multiple run early lead. Another Nico bomb Edit: And I see the Cubs have as usual started to blow it.

    Another bad one by the umps yesterday in a 1 run game: I didn't realize there was a website that keeps track of all this data. In that data it shows that the Cubs are the 4th worst favored team in baseball this year, losing ~7.33 runs due to bad umpire calls. For comparison, the worst team is the Pirates at -8.92 and the best team is the Diamondbacks at +12.85 https://www.umpscorecards.com/teams/

    I'm sure JR demanded that the Cubs games were on the weekend so they could sell out. They should have just done one of those 4 game series where they play Thursday-Sunday with 2 at Wrigley then 2 at GRate

    It was posted on the Trib's website but I don't subscribe so I found another website that copied it. It's a Paul Sullivan article.

    DeRozan makes 2nd team All-NBA. List of Bulls to make an All-NBA team since the dynasty 1st - Rose, Noah 2nd - DeRozan, Gasol 3rd - Butler All did it once

    Interchangeable? OK I think we have an answer. Then again this is #RoadCubs. Lets see how these teams match up at Wrigley.
  11. UMFan83
    which one is which?

    Asked this the other day in a game thread but curious to see if there are any signs of Seiya making adjustments and/or is he still mostly doing the things that he does well during this slump? Looking at my arbitrary sample size machine, Seiya has a line of .204/.257/.327/.584 over his last 26 games (105 PA), 0 HR, 34.3% K%, 6.7% BB%. Alarmingly, despite the .204 BA his BABIP over that time is .326. 105 PA is a lot but still not a large enough number to draw any permanent conclusions for a guy in his first 2 months in the MLB I guess. Just want to understand if he's showing positive signs outside of the raw numbers or if he's veering into Fukudome territory and will settle in as a .750s OPS hitter (or the equivalent in 2022 baseball)

    this sucks for the bears but football isn't of primary importance here. I hope its not true but the Bears/NFL need to investigate and take appropriate action if this is shown to be true
  14. UMFan83
    fuuuuuuuck. put him on leave/suspend him immediately pending investigation and cut him if there's any truth to this.
  15. UMFan83
    Using Zach in marketing still - its a sign!!

    brb changing my sons’ names to Gogo and Gugu

    Schwisdom Souviner Company does not sound nearly as good
  18. UMFan83
    Another blown 3+ run lead
  19. UMFan83
    And that's after this yesterday could just be confirmation bias but it seems like we've had several close games where the umpire has decided it based on this twitter account.
  20. UMFan83
    So are there signs that Seiya is making adjustments and is he still doing the things he does well through the slump? He has a sub .600 OPS over his last 27 games after the hot start.
  21. UMFan83
    well i guess the home heavy start to the schedule did not work out in our favor
  22. UMFan83
    I’m going to call these 5 IP, 0 ER, 7+ K starts a Rich Harden. Nice Rich Harden today Steele
  23. UMFan83
    And Contreras leaves the game with a hamstring injury
  24. UMFan83
    If feels like August 2021 all over again
  25. UMFan83
    5 Ks in 6 batters for Steele (the 6th hit one to the wall that the wind kept in)
