  1. BP has the Cubs' third-order win percentage at .796. That's a 129-win pace. In June.
  2. I refuse to accept that Fangraphs line. His 2016 fWAR must be a typo or something.
  3. I know you don't gush over Almora's defense the way others do, but that's just plain cold. He's not being sarcastic. He's Kyling Gato now. I'm all-in. They've built a 120-win team according to peripherals. Everything they touch is magic.
  4. Now that Almora is up, I want to see at least one day when Kris Bryant has a day off where we go: Fowler/Almora/Heyward Baez/Russell/Zobrist/Rizzo and basically run the best defense ever.
  5. He's going to spend the next 10 years becoming the Cubs' Jeter, and then history books will call Jeter the Yankees' Almora.
  6. Back to within 6 games of .750. A long shot, but not impossible. Gotta really bear down.
  7. Pay attention Diamondbacks. You tried lining it there last inning.
  8. 415 feet? I know they're just making up random numbers, but that one was especially bad.
  9. Matt Szczuzr's 0.5 fWAR this year is better than the career total for 29 of the 51 players drafted at No. 6 overall.
  10. Now I want Almora to get the 2017 CF job handed to him just to spite the last page of posts. He is going to be our Jeter.
  11. Dang. It went from 1-0 to 6-0 while I drove home from the teriyaki place. Sometimes you gotta take your time when screwing the closer, Cubs. It's not a race.
  12. Kyle Hendricks! Some! How Great!
  13. Lock this up. Teams 10 games back don't deserve their own thread. Maybe a combined also-ran thread with Reds and Brewers.
  14. About to be 8 games up on June 2 in the division. And it isn't even a bad division, it is actually pretty decent.
  15. Remember when they dong partied like this all over St. Louis in the playoffs? Just a fun thing to remember
  16. Saw a Dodgers fan online talking about how it was nice to play the Cubs close for the first three games. I don't know what is better: teams with that level of ambition settling for moral victories or taking even that away from them.
  17. That ball carried out as if it were riding some powerful, invisible wave.
  18. Pirates should be thankful to get there. Being the odd man out is very much the fat part of their range of outcomes.
  19. The Pirates can eff right off about now.
