  1. So I decided to start another Mad Men viewing (3rd time through the series)....we are going to have another Mad Men gif theme before the end of the year right? Or did we decide that themed gif threads no longer work?
  2. Even if we do win the division, it sucks that this run has put the Cardinals in a prime spot for a WC berth, just 1 win away from another NLDS matchup with the Cubs. Not that I'm afraid of them, but I really want to have that playoff series victory bragging rights for as long as possible.
  3. I thought he retired 2-3 years ago. But I guess he's been crushing in in AAA....good for him
  4. The Dodgers are a near image of what we'd be dealing with if we didnt win Game 7 (minus the 108 year stigma continuing). Some of the responses are lamenting on how very little has gone right since the World Series. Others are calling it an aberration and they are set up to be the class of baseball for the next several years.
  5. The Cubs scored 1 run in each of the first 5 games of their 6 game trip and will somehow split the trip
  6. Nothing like having to make your current closer pitch 1.2 innings in the second day of a 23 day in a row stretch.
  7. What the horsefeathers was that Rizzo
  8. 3 game suspension for Urban Meyer
  9. Does that other run just count for tomorrow’s game or something?
  10. What’s the highest draft pick we can get if we just rank the rest of the year?
  11. I know the 2016 Cubs had some putrid offensive stretches, but were they ever really THIS bad for THIS long?
  12. We keep getting worse looking offensively every game
  13. Murphy vying for tonight’s solo HR but no luck
  14. Anthony Rizzo has batted leadoff in 28 games this year. It’s a gradual process to turn full Dusty
  15. Gotta have the 2B lead off and C hit 8th, dude Maddon’s dustification is almost complete
  16. Since August 1, the Cardinals have gone 16-4. So sure, if you want to extrapolate that out and say the Cardinals will play .800 ball the rest of the year, it'll be tough for us to get the 97 wins we would need to win the division. We'd have to go 26-12, by the way, which is entirely possible. But it absolutely won't be necessary. Yeah this is likely at the end of our bad run and the cardinals good run. I still have scars from 2004 though when the Astros played like .900 ball the last month of the season and never eased up while we plodded along and finished several games back.
  17. id generally agree but I'd like to not immediately have a 9 game road trip. Maybe 6 games, then 3 at home, then 3 in milwaukee or something. The rest of April can be on the road for all I care...it just doesn't completely feel like the season has started until that first game at Wrigley.
  18. Second straight year we open the season with a 3 city road trip wtf Also wtf: we have an off day on FRIDAY July 5th then play 2 games against the White Sox then the ASB
  19. Whose turn is it to hit the solo HR today? I think it’s Javy
  20. This would be 16 wins in their last 20 games. Unreal
