IST: Reds @ Cubs

[TL1961]

Typical Cubs "pile on" game. Dont need the runs and they will score 13. But when the game is close they can't eek out 2 runs. Pad that run differential so the retards can say this is the best team of all time

Those assholes!!

Why try to score when you're already winning?

Don't they know the total number of runs in the series is predetermined, and they are taking away from tomorrow's game?

Those idiots!

Good grief! "Damn,We lost! "Damn. We won by too many!"

Just means that they are not a good team under pressure. Thank god they played a minor league team today or they would have extended their 10 game losing streak

Just watched the post game interview with Willson Conteras. Kasper said it immediately following and I'd have to agree, he's an impressive young man. I read a story about how proud he was to complete the Cubs "language academy" and how important he felt that was. Easy kid to root for.

End of the day. 52-30.

Damn right. Why do you guys think the Cubs have just owned the Reds this year? Its almost embarrassing. We killed them today. Bryant is a fucking machine that feasts on Reds pitchers. Guy cannot make an out either will walk or drive one to the wall or out of the yard every time . The guy is so dialed in its not even funny.

 

[cubsmann]

Im glad we play like 9 more games against theses . We're going to win all nine of those games. I don't care how many they put up were gonna bury the cockroaches...

 

[cubsmann]

Next were going to **** up the Pirates again and Bryant is going to hit like 10 HR's against them the rest of the way if not even more. Bryant is going to hit 50 HR's this year

The Reds are a minor league team. Too bad the Cubs have such a hard time against good teams

We are 22- 18 against winning teams

and barely over .500 is good in your mind? Hardly good for the ESPN and homer fans hype machine. Remember they are supposed to be the greatest team in the history of baseball.

Yep. 52-30 with significant injuries. These players on the DL are starting to get healthy and close to returning. The Cubs played better in the second half last season. Let's see how they do down the stretch.

Typically playoff teams have close records against winning teams and advantages over teams with losing records. The 2015 Royals were 47-43 agains winning teams for a .522 clip. The 2014 Giants were 34-27 against winning teams for a .550 clip. The Cubs at 22-18 are at a .550 clip. I think that's pretty good.

I think it comes down to these are play off caliber teams that are playing them like that. Even Fla could end up there.

All it means is the Cubs are depending on youth too much right now. Add to it the pitching has been crap.

I'm impressed with Hendricks. He just goes about his business.

I think the Marlins are a better team than the Mets actually and are more apt to make the playoffs.

Nah, the Mets pitching staff is a lot better

Nah, the Mets pitching staff is a lot better

Their offense is worse though. They're both probably 86-89 win teams. one of them will make the playoffs and it could go either way. My guess is Miami.

Cubs lineup when they get everyone healthy

Fowler
Bryant
Rizzo
Zobrist
Contreras
Heyward
Baez/Soler
Russell

So good.

 

[JZsportsfan]

If we can play the Reds forever, that'd be nice

Zobrist would be better in 2 hole..
