  1. Cubs last 6 games at Wrigley Field: 1 run, 3 hits 1 run, 5 hits 0 runs, 4 hits 1 run, 4 hits 0 runs, 5 hits 3 runs, 2 hits Overall 6 runs, 23 hits over the 6 games.
  2. Good teams in the past could do everything but get sac flies. The only thing this team can do right is sac flies
  3. Is it just me or did that Duffy flyout to Polanco start to look eerily similar to his walkoff dance play a few years ago? He started to stumble a bit
  4. At least we got 2 sac flies today wait wtf Matt Duffy is a Cub?
  5. season* We will be the only team whose players actually suck more in their walk years.
  6. amazing how the game speeds up again when the cubs start batting
  7. No wonder the Cubs cant hit. The tops of these innings take so long hitters need a rehab start in between ABs
  8. I'm only kind of watching on one laptop monitor while working but every time I look over a Cubs pitcher is throwing a ball
  9. Though I will say that if they let the leadoff man on in every single inning of the season, it will not be good for their prospects of winning the World Series
  10. So many posts I want to make about this game but I really dont want to overreact to the first game of the year.
  11. Not sure if tinyface is vaccinated but stay away from Sogard dude.
  12. The first 2 Pirate batters have reached in all 5 innings, and in the one of those innings the first 3 batters reached
  13. Just one game, though everyone seems to be waiting for Kyle to fall apart since basically his MLB debut
  14. Not sure if I agree with the new pitch lab strategy to let the first 2 guys of every inning reach
  15. He's a pro, he'll figure it out quickly
  16. Don't worry we can survive a bad start from Kyle, we've got....some other guys behind him in the rotation.
  17. Roy Williams is retiring. Going to be interesting to see the dominoes that fall with that job open.
  18. I remember when I couldnt sleep the night before opening day. Now I'm learning its opening day an hour after I wake up. Will be great to see people in Wrigley. Go Cubs
  19. I mean, George is right. Like I said, I'm not a fan of it, I just couldnt help but take a cheap shot about the Bears being the only team holding up "progress". Good for them for taking a stand
  20. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/31172380/sources-chicago-bears-voted-17-game-season Sounds like the Bears voted against the 17 game season and may have been the only ones? I'm not a big fan of the 17 game season but leave it to the old fashioned stuck in the mud Bears to be the only ones voting against progress. (sorry i couldnt help myself)
  21. That was easily one of the 3 most painful non-Cubs related sports losses in my life. Ugh
  22. With the schedule moving to 17 games, how many years will it still take for the Bears to get their first 4,000 yard passing and/or 30 passing TD season?
  23. Except for the fans that want to watch Marquee on a multitude of streaming platforms
  24. Not really. The trade wasn’t done for this year. Even knowing Zach’s ankle was going to get worse as he tried to play through it, AK would still make that trade 10/10 times I’d imagine. Maybe they get lucky and hop into the top 4 if they miss the playoffs? That would obviously be the ideal scenario. More likely they pick somewhere around 8-9, and in that case I’d still rather have Vuc moving forward. Side note I was thinking about which 100% won’t happen...but if you decided you made the wrong move and wanted to trade Vuc before the draft, the odds are pretty high you’d be able to get a top 5 pick. So you could essentially trade this years 8/9 overall pick plus the 2023 FRP for a top 5 pick this year. I’d do that deal being that it’s a 5 player draft. You really think you could get a top 5 pick for Vucevic? 5 worst records in basketball are Minnesota, Houston, Detroit, Orlando, Cleveland. Which one of them is in position to trade their pick for a 31 year old center? I don't disagree he has value but if Vuc is trading its to a team that is farther along in their rebuild process.
