Tell us agian how the Cubs are a dynasty and they will win 2 of the next 3 world series or how they are the equal to the 1927 Yankees. I love when you tell us those stories

The 1939 Yankees were better.

yeah there was. and it was a lot better than arguing on this forum. Im going to be proven right someday when this team wins the World Series. Until then this talk cannot continue. Did you think the press in 1927 was talking about the Yankees being one of the best teams ever before they swept the World Series in 4 games? You bet they were and without a World Series. A lot of people are talking about this team being historically great. They started off 17-5 in April which was a HUGE start. The Cubs began June with the best run differential, plus 129, and a record of 35–15, also the best. Cubs starting pitchers began the month with a combined earned run average of 2.38. In June they have struggled but what do you think is the more likely scenario? The Cubs win 17-5 in July and August and September with Fowler LaStella both .300 hitters, Fowler .888 OPS. That is as important to a team as Babe Ruth was in 1927. Did Ruth even spend one day on the DL in 1927. Not on your life, the guy had 540 AB and played in 158 out of 158 games hitting 60 HR and driving in a crazy 164 RBIs. The Cubs began July with the best record in baseball, 51-27 and the best run differential at +169. The pitching staff had the lowest ERA, the fewest hits allowed, runs allowed and earned runs allowed, and the lowest batting average by opponents in major league baseball. The Cubs offense when compared to all teams was 2nd in on base percentage, 2nd in base runners who eventually score, 2nd in the number of RBI's and 1st in achieving a walk. Kris Bryant was tied with Todd Frazier of the Chicago White Sox and Mark Trumbo of the Baltimore Orioles for the Major League Home Run lead with 23 and was 4th with 61 RBI's. Anthony Rizzo had 60. The upcoming All-Star game in San Diego is scheduled to begin with the entire Cubs infield as starters. Dexter Fowler, though injured, leads all National League outfielders in the voting. Do you ever watch ESPN? Every time they mention the Cubs which is not a lot given the amount of shit that is going on in sports today. They mention the Cubs as being "historically great" in 2016.

I wonder if there was sex....maybe buttsex?

No sir there was no butt sex. I don't like it and neither does my GF. You are pretty nasty. I don't even talk about butt sex so you must be having some. I'll bet you don't have a GF and aren't married.

Jeimer Candelerio up and starting at 3B. Coghlan to the DL.

Heyward in center. I like that. We should at least get our money back from the guy in the field. Three guys who started the season in AAA up before the roster expands. Who are they going to bring up then? Or are they going to pull the trigger and send Schwarber to New York for Miller and Chapman. Im convinced this trade is on the table and I might even do it. It almost guarantees us of 2 World Series titles having the best closer in the game (Miller). How many saves has Rondon blown in the past month, 3? Are you crazy!!!! A good closer doesn't ever blow a save. Ever

Idiotboy, the Philadelphia As were generally considered the best team in baseball from 1927 to 1931. Duh

Fowler due off DL Monday, but Maddon wants him to rest more..
Thinking he returns for the weekend series against Pirates before break, considering he a starter for AS..

Wondering who Maddon going to sit more between Baez Contreras and I'm guessing Russell..

Be great if Candelario has a good stay, then they really have decisions to make..

Lost 9 of the last 13 and still have the best record in baseball

Obviously the losing is still pretty damn frustrating though

Still in the middle of the Dish/WGN war.

Anyone got the live internet feed?
