  1. i'm not sure what bothers me more...the fact that billy hamilton inexplicably kills us or that old broke ass yadier molina still does
  2. my god...rizzo's confidence in his arm is basically the complete opposite of lester's
  3. i haven't seen a pitch like that since the 03 NLCS...i can't remember who it was. i want to say brad penny or redman.
  4. i gotta say i didn't envision warren being like the setup setup guy
  5. i'm glad we've at least touched up our run differential
  6. Tls, what I said earlier applies rat boy
  7. Thought he was striking out for sure so I'll take it
  8. oh man that might be my favorite behind the scenes cubs social media post ever

  13. all i remember about 2007 cliff floyd is how he amazed the pirates mascot
  14. He's been hitting rockets at guys the past 4-5 games..... I thought that was a weird comment since the narrative of the past two days has been about his 100 mph rockets right at people

  16. I mean, it's not unreasonable to get frustrated when everyone except Fowler is slumping at once. It's incredibly unlikely. I feel like that's happened at some point to every single Cubs team that I've ever followed. It's a long season and occasionally even great teams will slump. slumps aren't even real things most of the time. sure, if there's something mechanical amiss with a player, that's one thing, but for the most part it's the variance caused by a 60-70% rate of getting out that is just a fundamental part of the game. this is baseball. we could be the best offense ever and still have lots of games like last night.
  17. this rain is really horsefeathering annoying WHY COULDNT THIS HAPPEN EARLIER
  18. of course this horsefeathering rain couldn't have started a half hour ago
  19. apparently, cubs fans wearing the "try not to suck" shirts have been getting turned away at busch http://www.csnchicago.com/chicago-cubs/try-not-suck-joe-maddon-getting-cardinals-heads
  20. Correct. Dude struck out a lot to get to those 27 homers and his OBP was nowhere near where it has been since he changed. He hit 14 homers the next year in 100 games with a .349 OBP. The next two years his OBP was .351 and .359. Even in the 27 HR season his OBP was .335 & his OPS was a decent amount higher than his less powerful/higher obp seasons of the last 2 years. note the drastic reduction in K rate. I never said it was a good or necessary adjustment, but he's clearly a different type of hitter.
