    Same, I'm over it and this team has been going nowhere for a while. Although it'll be sad when KB and Javy go (if they indeed do, despite there being reasons to move on). However they better get to work on building this thing back up. No reason the Cubs shouldn't be perennial contenders.

    Best bit of Cubs news in quite some time.

    Who do we think he is calling out? Hopefully Sogard.

    Could Patrick Wisdom actually be good, or is this still residual pixie dust?

    Not that I was complaining but this season's fun May always felt a little fool's gold-y to me. It's a .500/mediocre team and I hope they sell off everything that isn't bolted down. Bullpens are fluid year to year, so I have no attachment really to any of these guys who have performed well so far. Bring back Schwarber and Yu!

    That was another unreal play by arenado.
  7. The_Achiever
    Joc Jams baby.

    I hope his fans at Lurie aren't expecting a visit anytime soon.

    Kemba doesn't interest me. He can only score against bad competition anymore, his defense is atrocious. One Celtic I could be interested in is Marcus Smart. Even when Zach was out the Bulls scored the ball pretty well. What I think they need is some perimeter defense. Maybe Smart is that guy.

    Mariners spring training vibe going on. At least the patch is cool.

    The Cubs winning is good and also makes things more uncomfortable for Ricketty & Co. (also a good thing). Keep stacking those W's.
  12. The_Achiever
    The Cubs are never going to lose again.
  13. The_Achiever
    The Javy play couldn’t be cooler.
  14. The_Achiever
    Taint Louis.

    Man he sucks. Basically every "unwritten" rule is just about protecting the fee-fees of some coddled loser. How can you get bent out of shape about anything when a team uses a non-pitcher as a pitcher? The White Sox are a good young team but TLR will always find a way to turd it up.

    Residual bitterness over 2016.

    Reinsdorf, LaRussa, and Pujols can sit around and talk about "the good old days" together. You know Kenny Williams will want to be at that table too. I remember seeing Ken Griffey Jr. in centerfield at a white sox game in 08 and it was brutal. He didn't move for an entire inning! I will always wonder if Pujols' decline would have been so precipitous if he had stayed with the Cardinals. He didn't even put together *1* Cardinals-pujols worthy season his entire tenure. I know they won their last WS during his last season there but not signing him again was truly a bullet dodged.

    That was great, saved by some very pro at bats from Matt Duffy. Very fun series.
  19. The_Achiever
    How about 3 times?

    I don't live in the area anymore and don't get Marquee but Len was a mercenary just like everyone else. I remember him doing a nationally televised cubs game and had to get excited for any big play for or against the Cobs. Surprised he didn't end up going to the Brew Crew. i know he was just a mercenary too, but the reason he didn't act excited for good cubs plays during nationally televised games was because he had to remain impartial. all announcers do that. Oh for sure, I just don't think he had any attachment to the team outside of being an employee.

    I'll admit to liking the new format (as long as they don't use it in the playoffs and world series). I think it's fun. 9 innings is plenty of time to determine the best team in a regular season game. WRAP IT UP after that please.
  23. The_Achiever
    I want Yu back. (c'mon c'mon c'mon let me show you what it's all about)
  24. The_Achiever
    That was a mighty blast from schwarber. The scoreboard shot feels a million years ago.

    The replies to the bears “welcome Andy” tweet are great. Letting these fools have it!
