We saw the cubs with an outburst on Thursday, on what should have been an off day, by going almost exclusively to opposite field hitting. Then they get Flannery and go back to pulling everything and get thoroughly embarassed. Nobody gets upset, nobody beats up a gatorade cooler, they laugh it off and forget about it.
Lester was a bit upset after the game but yea, they dont get overly upset during bad losses..

Today a big day to keep the momentum going that they achieved at the end of the first half...
With Chatwood and Monty going in the DH, ill be happy with a split..
Have to avoid being swept

Aww, let him do it. Used to annoy me too but now I find it amusing that anyone can get so wrapped up in a baseball team. He watches close to 162 friggin games and comes on here posting something every single day...he throws so much shit against the wall that he can't keep track of it all which leads to many redundant, glass half empty posts. The guy can't possibly have any kind of life outside of Cubs baseball, which in itself is pretty funny.

You know what they say about the weather in Chicago, if you don't like it wait 5 minutes.

Chatwood gotta be the only SP who could give up just 1 hit thru 4 innings and still look like crap..

1 hit 5 walks 1 HBP

Come on Chatwood you got this. Don’t settle for a tie. Go for greatness.

Lester Quintana and Hendricks are their top 3 SP right now and this team only going as far as they take them..

Their still in a fight for a playoff spot..
Not only do they have to keep the brewers off their backs..
They have the Braves Phillies Dodgers Dbacks Rockies on their tail for WC spots.
Nationals team who if when they get healthy could make a push ..

So, yea all it matters is getting to the playoff and then just need guys to get hot, problem is, if these guys dont perform in the 2nd half, they might not make the playoffs ..

Lester Quintana and Hendricks are solid starters when their on their game, just need to see more of it consistently in the 2nd half to stay on top of the division..

Im just taking a slow roll with this team til i see the SP actually get on a consistent roll..

In other words, you are not enjoying a great season.

I truly didn’t think Ozuna could throw 100’.

Neither did Javy.

Lol...

So having concerns about the SP going forward means im not enjoying the season


Come on guys..lol
Quit pretending on here like you dont have any concern over the SP because youre afraid of the keyboard bullies..

If there were no concerns, then why would there be talks of the cubs possibly looking for SP help and mega rumors of them possibly bringing in DeGrom or other SP..
Lol
It not just me in here, it out there too

I honestly just don’t think they have the talent to pull that.

I’ve said it before but think of what the Cubs would demand for Bryant.

I would think 2 top 100 with 2 off their top 30.

I would place that at Baez, Schwarber, Underwood, Maples. That is a realistic scenario.

That is why rumor is plain stupid. I would rather hear factual info on legit discussions vs fan based fanatics

Who is going to close this game? Maddon used all the best relievers already.

If youre talking about DeGrom, i dont think it happens either, i was just making a point with that post..

Only way they get into the conversation for DeGrom is if they offer at least 1 of their regulars and im 99.9 % positive that management dont want to trade any of those guys now...
