  1. why do we build him up butterscup just to let him down
  2. no way. cubs go full on trollface and alternate 6 and 9 the rest of the way. nice
  3. anibal sanchez has allowed a very stupid number of hr this year. this looks like it's largely due to the fact that his hr/flyball rate is five times higher than it was last year, but last year it was stupidly small for no reason so in conclusion dongs.
  4. ughhh castro can't even pretend he might hit the ball hard. i am officially downshifting into excited for him to be off the team.
  5. that's one of the worst calls i can remember. between that and strike three to soler earlier, umpires getting fired up in big spot is yet another argument in favor robot umps.
  6. do you guys think we should post gifs or something to try to force a rally or is this game too far gone?
  7. if we have to lose let's at least k 21 times and make it interesting I pledge now that if that happens I will give up baseball forever. that seems like a very bad bet for you
  8. if we have to lose let's at least k 21 times and make it interesting
  9. tommy hunter inspires zero confidence. i wish we had traded for a good player at the deadline.
  10. a lot of people seem pretty down on utley, so i will chime into say i'd like to pick him up, provided we don't have to give up anything of significance or guarantee him a bunch of money for next year. coghlan at second is a nice idea but loses a lot of effectiveness when we have to take him out in the fifth inning or whatever. i don't think it'd be a big surprise at all for utley to be useful the rest of the way, and, if he isn't, we can cross our fingers and hope for the best from baez at the beginning of sep.
  11. robin ventura was only a 2-time all star? that seems crazy low. i guess i just remember him more than i ought to since he played in chicago.
  12. the soler strike zone continues to disappoint. unreal.
  13. i was wearing a cubs hat and also i went "YIPPEEEEEE!" every time the cubs did something good. *Swoon* the propeller on my cubs hat spun every time i said it too, i forgot to mention that part
  14. i was wearing a cubs hat and also i went "YIPPEEEEEE!" every time the cubs did something good.
  15. i was at a bar after work watching the game yesterday and a very drunk older gentleman started talking very loudly at me about the cubs. he needed to tell me all about how he was a cardinal fan but he rooted for the cubs second because he hated the reds, brewers, and pirates. it was one of those situations i couldn't really get out of and just found the most awkward. i placated the man and went along with him, and after he few minutes he proved himself reasonably knowledgeable if ever more inebriated. everything seemed to be going fine until pedro strop entered the game and the man shouts "OH AND OF COURSE THE FUCKIN BLACK GUY HAS TO HAVE HIS HAT ON CROOKED." this was the push i finally needed to step away and pretend that i was having a very serious conversation with my friend. talking about baseball with people you don't know can be even worse.
  16. god damn it butters killin this [expletive]
  17. esp when he was going with the pitch. he would've struggled to get back even if he'd stopped the moment it was hit.
  18. FUN GAME draw up a less fun way for that inning to end after rizzo's walk that does not involve cubs injury
