  1. flailing dongs is a dark horse candidate See what you did there.
  2. Pirates take game 2 of the series vs. Milwaukee. 3 games out!
  3. Is the camera on balls in play darker or is it just me? Not just you.
  4. i don't really like this park. Doesn't feel "natural".
  5. So, looking ahead......if the Phillies can hold this lead, there's a good chance the Cubs can make up a couple games before going to Milwaukee to end the month. Brewers have been pretty good on the road, but play their next 10 away from Miller Park. While they do get the Phillies again, they have 4 vs. the Pirates and 3 vs. the Nats before the Cubs series. Meanwhile, the Cubs continue to face a bunch of bad pitchers. Atlanta has been solid this year, but you'd hope the Cubs could take 2 of 3 even w/ Lackey and Montgomery going. Then they get St. Louis with Arrieta, Quintana and Lester. After that it's 4 vs. the tanking Sox. If the Cubs can get a 7-3 next 10, and the Brewers go 4-6 on the road....that'll put the Cubs 1.5 back before the 3 gamer in Miller, win that series and I get complete confidence back in this team's playoff chances. Right now, I'd say I'm cautiously optimistic.
  6. Faster than any other Cub, at the very least. Yeah, I never knew this about Happ until seeing him play live. Most surprising thing has been his speed and his ability to play CF. Hell, I didn't think he'd be any good at 2B either.
  7. Not sure I've ever seen a pitcher have 12Ks with only 99 pitches.
  8. This is definitely more encouraging, especially the 2 out hits with RISP.
  9. If the Cubs are only going to score when they hit HRs, I'd like them to hit 5 of them per game like tonight.
  10. This is going to extras on the back of Eddie Butler out of the pen.
  11. Agreed. Last season's runaway regular season best record having world series winner that brought back like 22 of it's 25 man roster isn't very good.l It just means last year's team was a giant fluke and this 85 game sample is the true indicator of their talent Makes sense. That's soooo Cub. Have a fluky championship season and then go in the tank.

  13. Ouch, Monty gets 8 runs in 3 innings and can't leave with a W.
  14. I love Eloy. Sucks to see him go for a not-quite superstar pitcher. But Quintana is plenty good, and DAT CONTRACT DOE! Pretty nice to have the 2 & 3 starters locked up til 2021 for about 60M combined.
  15. Brewers also up 3-0 in the 1st.
  16. Swear all umps are terrible at every single thing. Ball/strike, safe/out, fair/foul.
  17. What the hell was that call?
