  1. I'm napping on the job this morning. @PackLandVA, you are up for today's game thread.
  2. I finally added this to the site. Internally, we track reliever usage over the past five days so we have reference for who pitched and when. I decided it should be on the site as well. You'll find a link for this at the top of the forum index in the resources list of links. https://northsidebaseball.com/chicago-cubs-bullpen-usage/
  3. Okay, due to the doubleheader split we’re counting the loss. Tomorrow’s game thread is @Southpaw19
  4. It’s all good, I’m not superstitious. And honestly, I don’t even really care. I’m happy to watch all of you see a fun team. As I get older and do this for a living, I find myself less interested in cheering for specific teams. I openly mock the Twins on pretty much a daily basis. I hope they do well but it doesn’t impact me much if they suck.* *I still legitimately get amped and become a crazed fan in October
  5. I should go back and check but my record starting game threads this season is absurd.
  6. Their only strength was pitching and their staff is devastated. And on top of that I think they’re also unlucky.
  7. The Marlins lineup has been terrible, something like a 65 wRC+... and that's before they started losing guys. Miami basically lucked its way into October last year. They had a negative run differential.
  8. Let's try this again! The Marlins have a disaster start on their hands. Nothing has gone right for this team and the immediate future is pretty bleak. It's the return of Jameson Taillon! God only knows what to expect from him.
  9. The Diamondbacks seem determined to make the Cubs win this game.
  10. It means I changed some code and the side effect was green stars in the forum. I decided that small mistake fell under the "I don't care" category and left it that way. But the star itself means it is an unread thread and you have commented in that thread.
  11. I went to bed in the... fifth? sixth? and missed the shenanigans. I see the Cubs' bullpen took hold of this game in the worst way.
  12. I believe @Brian707 is up for today's game.
  13. Gonna split this into its own thread. We need new signups or I'm just going to take over game threads (if I end up doing half of them, there's no point in the system). Either way, the new rule we're going to institute is that if no thread is up by 10am, it's a jump ball. If you don't see one, create one at 10:01. Here are the current people on the game thread list: 1. @Brian707 2. @Southpaw19 3. @PackLandVA 4. @Bertz 5. @Rex Buckingham 6. @mul21 7. @squally1313
  14. West coast trips are usually rough. This one is going pretty okay.
  15. I mean, he's gonna cool off, four homers in four games isn't sustainable. That .327 average probably isn't going to stick around, either. But still, early returns on Busch couldn't be better. I thought this was a pretty savvy trade by the Cubs but hoped that Busch might settle into being a decent regular. In 2024, he's already been worth 0.7 fWAR, which is bloody impressive from his position. His BB% is over 10% and his strikeout rate is 25%, which is entirely reasonable in the modern game from a guy with his power. And his Statcast...
  16. If I created all the game threads this season, the Cubs would be on pact for 120 wins. Just sayin'.
  17. I'd consider a move to Fubo, they have Marquee. And their interface isn't a horsefeathers trashfire like DirecTV Stream.
  18. I could use some backup so I think this policy makes the most sense. If there is no thread up at 10am central, it's a jump ball. Whoever is here and notices, create one. If I don't see one whenever I happen to check in, then I will create one.
