  1. Wouldn't shock me if there were parts of the Cubs clubhouse that felt that way. Baseball players are dumb meatheads.
  2. Checked and see Hendricks is pitching. Is there anyone whose starts we can actually look forward to at this point? It's a sea of 4.05 ERA/FIPs.
  3. The good news is that this is all playing out exactly like Epstein's Boston run did, so we still probably have one more championship coming as he flails around with pitching.
  4. Even as-is, he's at least a little better than Chatwood. But ... meh. I'm not convinced the Cubs' ability to "fix" pitchers is distinguishable from the random variance of pitcher performance.
  5. Why would something good happen when something bad could happen instead?
  6. You shouldn't give it to the kid to "avoid the situation," you should give it to the kid because that was clearly who was supposed to get it. Yeah, sorry, I mean more a generic foul ball situation.
  7. Remember when the 2000s Cubs set the strikeout record basically every year?
  8. I always wonder if they have a kid at home or something. If I were him, I'd be wanting to bring it home to my son or nephews. But I'd probably give it to the rando kid just to avoid that exact situation.
  9. There's some space between valuable enough for that proposed trade to work and useless.
  10. Harper was going last in front of his home crowd. If the quick-pitches didn't work, the commissioner himself would have paused the clock at 2 seconds while everyone pretended not to notice. It's fine.
  11. Yeah sorry Schwarbs but that was awesome.
  12. He's gonna get this at the last minute in front of the home crowd and I'm fine with that.
  13. Because he's going to hit home runs for the Cubs.
  14. ——— I wonder if the Cubs can dump Chatwood on someone like the Angels, A’s, Twins, Phillies, or Rockies? Why would anyone take him off our hands? I've heard he has a promising spin rate.
  15. I know it's a minor nitpick, but it annoys me to see the Pirates hitter rounding second for the triple as the ball is coming in. Your run is irrelevant, but what if there's a cut-off and quick tag that gets you before the winning run crosses the plate?
  16. Why is Kato Kaelin a brewers fan? Never mind, wikipedia says he was born in Milwaukee. That does not seem on-brand for him.
  17. I refuse to scoreboard watch the brewers. But misery porn isn't scoreboard watching, and this is hilarious.
  18. My self-cred as a real soccer fan took a hit today, because I forgot completely about the world cup final until I had slept through it.
  19. I scored my first hat trick in my dog-poop adult novice hockey league.
  20. Ozuna has the same fWAR as Rizzo, and Pham is half a win ahead of them both.
