  1. I don't understand expecting this to happen when Sean has put in a very, very solid performance tonight.
  2. Proposal to mods: topical ban, Rays series. 1. Game threads deleted. 2. Posts referring to the series, deleted. 3. Stats that take into account the series, adjusted.
  3. I want to forget that this series even happened.
  4. This is like some kind of nightmare where you can't figure out where you are. Apparently we've landed back in the '70s on crappy astro turf but all the fans are Cub fans so is this Wrigley???!? My head is spinning, where the hell am I?
  5. Seriously. The rest of the park is like some horrifying synthetic vision of baseball from someone who spent their entire life indoors. Even the "drink race" is a poor copy of something a bunch of other ballparks are already doing.
  6. Would be a different story in our (read: REAL) ballpark.
  7. Just thank God we wont be back in this God awful place for a very, very long time. How does October sound? I doubt the Rays will be there. Yanks/Red Sox will still finish better.
  8. This is seriously a horrible looking offensive effort so far.
  9. July 10, 2005. The Cubs finished off a 3 game sweep of the Marlins. Since then we've been 0-8 in this fine state. weird

  11. I'll be glad to put these ridiculous faux baseball fields behind us. It just looks like our hitters don't see the ball well here. I wouldn't be suprised if it's the backdrop, the turf, the weird lighting -- the whole bit. Turf baseball sucks in the worst way.
  12. It's all stupid Kristian and his HOF game's fault.
  13. I understand he's got good stuff, but if Shields is so great then why is his ERA+ barely over 100? He's good. Not great. His last 2 starts have been anything but stellar. He's a pretty solid starter. You all just totally ruined my vibe. Thanks!
  14. You must have heard it wrong the second time.
  15. I understand he's got good stuff, but if Shields is so great then why is his ERA+ barely over 100? He's good. Not great. His last 2 starts have been anything but stellar.
  16. Because the Brewers are the team that we're holding off, not the Cardinals. +1 Cards just showed what they really are.
  17. Thanks for posting that. It certainly seems to be all but decided.
  18. Same here. I'm going on the idea that he has good stuff, he needs to put it all together. That can happen anytime, but let's hope for now. I don't think he's been all that bad. He has put it together to a certain degree. He hasn't given up more than 3 ER since May (albeit his last 3 starts only went 5 innings or so). I think Gally keeps it reasonable tonight. I still don't think this Rays team is all that great. They're playing well though.
  19. I feel like Gally's going to have a good day. Dunno why, just feels that way.
  20. People talking about the other shoe dropping for the Cubs. I've got to wonder if it might have dropped for the Cards. They never seem to get swept at home, much less by the Royals. Crew is on a roll now, I'm more concerned about them than the Cards now (actually I've been more concerned about them the whole season despite their early struggles).
  21. Why wait until after the game? To not affect the team with the news right before they take the field. Anyway, weekend it is. At least I know not to wait around.
