Had to remind myself how many of that 2016 four were All Stars that year. Bryant and Rizzo were (Baez and Contreras weren’t), plus Zobrist, Fowler, Russell, Arrieta and Lester.
What a squad!
It would be funny if our lineup went on to chase this pitcher out of the game in the 1st inning after that monologue than he’s got something like 150 friends and family at WF today.
Funny that when Len and Boog were together they’d always be telling Seinfeld stories, Seinfeld quotes and many times they were recycled, and I’d always be like “More Seinfeld please!”. Boog and JD recycling stories gives me a very different reaction lol.
Boog telling Steele that he is welcome any time he wants to join them in the booth is kind of ironic. Boog is welcome to travel with the team any time he wants to call a road series lol.
You just know that Boog will miss the Washington, Detroit and Philadelphia road series and they’ll pick up the “who’s the adult” conversation against the Pirates in 3 weeks.
You’d kind of hope that Coors Field does moundball for the four season ticket holders they’ve got. Surely you’d need an incentive to go to a Rockies home game.
I’ve seen him a couple of times. Maybe he’s taken a leaf out of Boog’s book, but where Boog doesn’t travel outside Chicago, Pink Hat Guy can only leave the nursing home 1 or 2 times a month.
100% win record in games the Cubs have scored 10+ runs as well. Closest a team has gotten in those games were in a 13-11 win vs D’Backs and an 11-10 win vs the Dodgers.
