    It's typical 'rich jackasses not remotely knowing what people who only make five figures care about' syndrome. (I'm assuming Sinclair people as the rich jackasses here since the Ricketts never seemed to care what Len and JD wore before, but who knows.) They watched a couple of Fox games and saw Joe Buck wearing a suit, so they figured if Len and JD wear suits everyone will think they see Marquee as a super important endeavor rather than an easy cash infusion. So again, why do they bolded persons mentioned above care about what the announcers on TV are wearing. We're watching a baseball game, not a fashion show. And if it's not a fashion show, why do the station/broadcast owners care then what they wear, you ask? Well, I don't care about what the station/broadcast owners think about fashion. I just want good baseball (check), with good announcers (check) and at least decent production (check). Feel free to get upset about the top half of their wardrobe that's shown over the course of three hours for, what, about 2-3 minutes? Okay. I'm more annoyed that the players don't all wear the same color-schemed mask.

    I can’t understand why it matters what Len and JD wear.

    And from the 5th inning until the end of the game, the put the ball on play a whopping 5 times.

    Taking a cue from Stoney, “You can’t slide into first base. For all you youngsters out their, run through first base.”

    White Sox just went back to back to back to back dingers against the Cards - Moncada, Grandal, Abreu and Eloy.

    Anyone think it would be a good idea to maybe flip flop Bryant and Rizzo in the lineup. Bryant, obviously off to a slow start stats-wise. But the OBP is dreadful. He's seeing a lot of pitches in some of his ABs, just not getting on. He might see more hittable pitches with the OBP machine on base ahead of him.

    I know it doesn't mean too much, but the few times I watched Cotton pitch, he was getting lit up. Lot of hard contact. Cubs are no worse without him.

    So I've been doing the "Cubs Game Thread" the past couple of seasons, and I've noticed I seem to often start a thread after a loss. Brewers go for two in a row with this guy starting: Or was it this guy: Cubs, meanwhile, will counter with this guy on the mound: I always seem to get a little anxiety when I start a game thread. For one, I don't want to be the reason the Cubs lose. And I feel like the thread start needs to be cutting edge, trendy or entertaining. How many of those little hearts can I get people to check? "YAY ME!!!! Somebody likes my thread start!!" The reality is, me starting a game thread has no bearing on the outcome of the games. And I really shouldn't give a rat's a$$ about you guys. I don't even know any of you save your dumb board monikers. Win you dumb basterds! Or not. You're on deck.

    Well it's not a Cubs Game, it's a FOX Game.

    Wondering if the slow start for Yelich this year is: A - Small sample size, and he’ll get better, much, much better B - Regression in his game, and his career has peaked C - Without distraction of fans in the stadium, “home cooking” just not the same

    Nice base running by Jorgeous Jorge. And who would’ve guessed he was in the Royals lineup for all 162 last year?

    I'll say it first: Nice job by the pen to secure the walk off.
