  1. Donovan Solano career wRC: 98 carson Kelly career wRC: 89
  2. Hahaha yeah the dude who JOed in a parking lot hit multiple home runs this series.
  3. Other guy: this is the worst pitching performance in baseball’s storied history me: I don’t know man, there were some obviously unique circumstances going on here, we’ve been pretty good all year Other guy: I hope your life gets better, homophobic slur
  4. Our backup catcher was the best hitter in baseball for like 6 weeks dude
  5. I hope we go down to St. Louis and prove how much better of a team we are for obvious reasons, but also to at least temporarily shut up the half of this board who hate this team
  6. The guy who has been a cubs fan for 48 years has never watched a wrigley game where the wind is howling out
  7. If you’d like to watch baseball but don’t feel like watching a terrible pitcher lose to a great pitcher, but still want terrible umps, LSU/coastal Carolina could be a good one, they just tossed the CCU manager and first base coach in the first inning, crowd is great.
  8. well going to try to enjoy my friday which means getting the horsefeathers out of this thread. cubs are good, see you guys tomorrow
  9. Never putting the ball in fair territory but only striking out once is pretty impressive in its own way
  10. You're going to have to manage Boyd if you want him later in the year.
  11. From opening day until May 10 (picked because it seemed like the easiest way to split the season to date in half), we had a 123 wRC, since then we've had a 108 wRC, which is (still) 8th in baseball. The baserunning and defense has been and remains elite. The overall package, even running cold or whatever you want to call this, is absolutely still good enough to win.
  12. nice, bullpen regression lines up perfectly with the 12 runs we've scored in the last 15 innings.
  13. usually when you pound something that hard, you do it in the privacy of your own home
  14. I mean, we were second in baseball through April, and a month and 20 days later we've fallen all the way to...third. This isn't some freefall. The Yankees just went like 30 innings without scoring a run and their offense is a buzzsaw. These stretches happen.
  15. I understand we've been struggling offensively lately. Probably some legitimate cause for concern under the hood, probably at least a little based on the elite starting pitching we have faced and continue to face, probably just the ups and downs of how baseball works. But third base offensive production as a whole (Shaw has taken about 60% of the PAs) has been a black hole the entire season, and we are, YTD, the third best offense in baseball. The problem to address, to the extent that a 45-29 team has Serious Problems, is pitching. Not the guy batting 9th who can run and field.
  16. Man, signing on for roughly $25m and two years more of a veteran 3B who hasn't been an above average hitter in any season in his entire career is so bleak.
