  1. And thirty seconds after I post it, he gives up a double, a game-tying run, and he’s out of the game. Can’t get the win and can get the loss.
  2. Joe Ross is 4 outs away from history and at 125 pitches.
  3. Seemed to make sense to me the first time I read it.
  4. If they get all things games in this weekend, Addy and Willy get their first "dongs" of the season at Mile-high! Book it!
  5. I don’t mind ‘em. At least once in a while. Brings me back to my youth. I can picture Bake McBride camping under a flyball with that massive fro sticking out the sides of his ball cap.
  6. And tied (so far) for second longest winning streak at 1 game.
  7. Cool! And thanks for taking the time each week to sort thru all the stats!
  8. I hope they don’t get any runners on third base with less than two outs.
  9. Man on third, less than two outs and they can’t/don’t score. I know, shocking, right?
  10. Half of the games have been in beautiful-weathered Miami or indoors.
  11. Maybe the Cubs will fatten up their record once they start playing the lesser teams of the league.
  12. As opposed to the other really bad teams the Cubs have faced so far. Hey, the Marlins have won a game since playing us. So have the Reds. They have beaten the Vaunted Pirates as many times as the Cubs have.
  13. I would like to propose a small change in the standings, kinda like it's done in golf. Note the ranking/position:
  14. I get the whole “day game after a night game” deal, but the lineup loses a fair amount of sexiness without Willy.
  15. Gonna guess your opening thread took longer to make than this next Cubs win streak.
  16. This is sort of "Bears" news (maybe).... Just read the the Packers have requested of the NFL to open the upcoming season at home. It is their 100th season, and the Packers want to make it a big, weekend celebration. And it's supposed to be the Sunday night game. So you gotta think it will be a division game, right? Well, what better match up than the OLDEST rivalry in football, right?!? While I think it would be a game the NFL would love to market, I'd rather not play that game against the Bears. These two teams have a habit of ruining "special games" for the other team (i.e - Favre's jersey retirement, Sayers & Butkus # retirement, etc.). Anyway, thought it was worth sharing in this thread.
  17. honestly took me a second to figure out who that was and i think it was because of the smile I thought is was one of the players' teenage-ish daughter.
  18. According to twitter there has been a notable number of Cubs fans that are showing up in full Cubs gear, presumably they were planning on going to Wrigley today but detoured south when it was cancelled. I think new Comiskey, or whatever corporate name they've slapped on it for this season, is pretty nice. They have great food, the views of the field is nice from most areas, and it's great to hear the players, coaches and umps during the game.
  19. Remember when the thought was that he would be as good at 3rd base as Braun was, and where in the field will he be able to play. Not only is he an above average 3rd baseman, but he can also play 1st and all three outfield positions at least adequately. The guy is a stud on the baseball field!
