  1. Well - this makes me want to watch football…..this team has holes in them like Swiss cheese right now. Not just today’s performance either. Aye aye aye. Palencia and Keller should maybe switch at this point - call me crazy
  2. Or watching ones blow past him on called strike threes 🤷‍♂️
  3. Or watching ones blow past him on called strike threes 🤷‍♂️
  4. It’s been a rough one today - to say the least
  5. Hey - let’s move guys around the lineup to help them out of their slump or give them a rest day or two, but keep Suzuki batting third. 😃
  6. Ha! That is so true - noticed he’s be slightly better at lowering that chase rate he’s developed . Thanks
  7. I’m watching the game but walked away - what are you referring to?
  8. Good post - You were the one that reminded me to stop and look at it from a different perspective and it is so true. When we follow a team so closely we tend to see their warts/flaws more than other teams. The truth is that this team has done extremely well - especially with losing Steele early on, and other injuries here and there. Thanks for the thought provoking reminder about that - hopefully they can put it all together and make a run deep into October
  9. PCA is a special talent for sure - he really just needs some more plate discipline I feel and get his confidence and swag back. His fielding is superior and base running ability too. Busch is capable and Horton has been exceptional, so I’m excited like many fans here about the youth this team has. Like many, I tend to be overly critical because when you follow a team closely it’s easy to get wrapped up in the negative side of things. A guy in here called me on that and it makes sense for sure. This team has been inconsistent at times, but what they have done this year as a whole is a job well done. Hopefully some of those others can catch their groove again and get a streak in late September early October! 👍💪
  10. People say Kyle Tucker, PCA, Seiya etc, but as far as the MVP on this team it has been Nico Hoerner for me. Those others are solid players and I’m glad they’re Cubs, but Nico has been the steady and consistent on this team. As a hitter and a fielder. Atta man Nico 👍💪
  11. This post just makes sense - you Stratos, are a logical and sensible person. Some others on here…..not so much. They prefer the torture of watching Ben Brown nosedive the team into oblivion
  12. Fella, you LITERALLY highjacked a comment between myself and another fan on here LOL. I find that sad and strange because you had zero to do with my comment. Good to see I got in your head at least 🤦‍♂️ - I also see you feel the need to comment though, so maybe we are closer than you think 🤔 Keep reading it in whatever voice you choose since you feel the need to comment fella (figured since you didn’t like “buddy” and all) 🤷‍♂️
  13. Come on man - “apathetic”? That’s funny. If you didn’t care or not bothered, you would t respond to me. I do state opinions as do you and others and it’s simply that - opinions. ❤️👍
  14. Don’t let DYMNO see you post something negative about Benjamin Brown
  15. Obnoxious you say? Ben Brown hasn’t done anything besides shown that he’s not a MLB pitcher YET. Not saying he couldn’t develop, but this season my friend, he hasn’t shown anything besides being a liability. If that’s obnoxious of me - well 🤷‍♂️ I didn’t call him names and cut him down. THAT would be obnoxious. I’m simply stating an opinion. If you’re that offended by my comments, then not sure what to tell you guy
  16. Can’t argue that - their bats were nonexistent tonight, but Brown and Pomeranz combo is a recipe for disaster. NOT hindsight and all - because Brown has been a liability nearly all season
  17. How is that guy still in the Show?? How many times does he have to show Counsell and the gang that he sucks? Where is my buddy that says “he’s learning the ropes?” lol They give him enough rope to hang himself every single time. Pomeranz giving up that homer was rough, but due to Brown’s runners it’s now a three to one game. Guy must have something on the Cubs to still be up and working a “bulk role” joke
  18. Horton - I’m sorry on behalf of Ben Brown and Pomeranz.
  19. Kittridge you stud!! Not gonna lie - didn’t know how that was gonna go. Suzuki on as a runner is solid with a hit bat in Happ up. Lfg
  20. Seiya looks at meatballs and then is outstretched 90% of the time when he swings. Guy either destroys the ball or reaches for it
  21. Either way - this is a win today! Shower fight and grit and clawed back. Good stuff! Shaw and Santana let’s go!!
