  1. None of these guys can hit a high fastball. It's pretty embarrassing.
  2. Bellinger is getting fooled badly by seriously high fastballs lately
  3. Mo not getting any national recognition is a crying shame. This dude is destroying the league at an extremely young age. Shaw is clearly 'right' right now. He is wearing out the RCF gap.
  4. I feel like a large % of the Cubs 'Bad luck' comes in the middle of the field. Is this accurate?
  5. Jared Jones out here popping 101, are you kidding me?
  6. Shaw oppo double followed by a Flaming Mo
  7. Sticking with him being done for the half
  8. How far can you guys make it into this video before turning it OFF?
  9. The fact that we think we need to sign names every time is a huge problem. The development at the MLB level is just bad. There are several teams spending very little to much better results.
  10. And for half of that and a legit player development staff you could lead the NLC by 7 games
  11. Yeah Wrigley is annoying. 380 to RF should be a HR every time.
  12. Morel should be a DH. Problem is, so should Seiya.
  13. After he finally had a noteworthy start lol
  14. Even though weve had multiple walk offs and dominant pitching performances I think this was the W of the year so far. It is extremely rare that a player makes a 3 run error and then comes back in the bottom of the inning and crushes a game-tying grand slam. Obviously that wasn't enough but the game really could have been another inexplicable disappointment. Then we got some good relief pitching and a vital player in a deep slump hit the go-ahead blast. Of course I'll be beside myself again if we lose tomorrow but this should be one of those games that gives the team a lot of confidence, a galvanizing win. Hopefully it is.
  15. The defense and base running tanking like this was totally unexpected by me. The offense has these spells every single year. They are annoying as horsefeathers but they are an annual event for whatever reason. I really have to take back my effusive praise of Counsell though. He has made a lot of decisions that I questioned when made that came back to bite us immediately. He hasn't been the finger on the pulse guy I anticipated. Hes actually been bad. I also expected Kelly to bring our offensive ebbs and flows down a notch too, so thats been surprising as well. To me, sorry to repeat myself, but I question if this team prepares for each pitcher they face on the level of the better offensive teams in the league. Some of the best lineups in the game aren't star-studded but they don't have enormous weaknesses up and down like we do and they avoid those long valleys IMO. Too often we just look unprepared and get dominated. They are just not built to combat the stuff that dominates the league these days.
  16. Why are we wasting our time with Teheran? It makes me so nervous he's gonna get a spot start or two for no reason at all. Like just cut him loose lol
