  1. Chicago teams: Lucy. Chicago fans: Charlie Brown. My patience with this team will evaporate quickly if they don't start being interesting to watch.
  2. Braves gave up 28 runs in the last two games. So naturally they'll shut out the Cubs because baseball is stupid.
  3. Apparently Counsell watched Wiggins AAA debut and now there is a possibility the Cubs could call him up before the end of the year. I do not know how to feel about this. Of course, I rather the Cubs to take a safer and healthier road with Wiggins but on the other side, it would be pretty exciting to see him in Chicago. I think I would rather the Cubs to err on the side of caution with Wiggins. I can wait till 2026 to see him.
  4. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
  5. My opinion is in line with what BN is saying. Basically a hit piece by a disgruntled former employee. Probably some truth but I need to hear from a more credible source.
  6. The offense is what it is going to be for the rest of the season. The gameplan should for be the offense to squeeze out 3-4 runs a game, the defense to be immaculate and the pitching keeps the other team to 2-3 runs a game.
  7. Despite my constant consternation, they are fine.
  8. Will they do something similar to Wiggins next year? I am assuming so.
  9. I remember that French OF of Dubois, Pierre and Jacques Jones.
  10. Idk why but when I read this post, that scene near the end of Ferris Bueller popped in my head.
  11. Joe Nathan, Phil Nevin, Dave Sappelt, Ronald Torreyes, Jonathon Lucroy and Jason Dubois.
  12. I know both guys tried to play it down after the game but the look on the catchers face after being hit said it all. He wanted to have words with Valdez but thought better of it.
  13. I don't care what some people on this board will say but I am definitely questioning this team's effort.
  14. I've given up hope that this team can get hot again. The Cubs continuing to be tepid is all I ask for the rest of the season.
  15. I love bunts. Yes, I do want PCA to bunt more and use his speed.
  16. Not unless they wait till tomorrow.
  17. You know it is going to be Cassie.
  18. I've always liked Santana as a player but I do not know how much gas is left in the tank with him. Not a bad flyer.
  19. Would GB had signed him if he was a FA? My guess would have been no. But good on GB.
  20. How else are you going to convince someone of Parsons ability to willingly go to Green Bay? With the said, it would not surprise me if the Packers end up trading him within 3 years.
  21. I, too, rather the Cubs play their way into the playoffs and not back door their way in. I'm going to be greedy and say anything less then a sweep of the Rockies will be a disappointed. But I am prepared for disappointment.
  22. Here's to the Packders trading Parsons in three years with nothing accomplished. With that said, the Packers are still all about Jordan Love. He does take a step forward in 2025, it won't matter they got Parsons.
  23. Does not surprise me. Cubs do not seem to play well in San Francisco. It's one of the few places that I dread the Cubs having to go. Find a way to not get swept.
