April 3, 20187 yr Holy fucking shit, what a nightmare. 58 Ks through 5 fucking games? FuckYeah, that’s fucking brutal. To some degree RISP performance is luck but you can’t get lucky if you don’t even put the ball in play.
April 3, 20187 yr The most disturbing thing about the K's is who's doing it. Happ, Contreras, Rizzo, Baez, Bryant, Heyward, are all striking out =< 20% of their at bats. Ian Happ has struck out in 10 of 16. Holy. Fucking. Shit.

April 6, 20187 yr How he managed to get the yips after being fucking nails last year is beyond me.Leadoff press, honestly Rizzo is hitting worse. Javy 1-1 with 3 walks tonight is good to see. Schwarber, Russell, Bryant, Zobrist, and Contreras all hitting well so far.

April 6, 20187 yr quality troll by the person in charge of Cubs twitter- Whoever runs the Cubs twitter is one of the best off all sports teams.
April 9, 20187 yr Starts the season with a 9 game road trip, cant wait for today's game. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
April 9, 20187 yr Looking at the weather, they should push the game back a little further, say, tomorrow. I was looking forward to a game at Wrigley today. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

I get it's opening day but playing in that shit is a joke, unless they plan on replacing a ball every time it's put into play.

April 10, 20187 yr Maddon is going to get off the hook for this because it worked out but... Down 8-2 in the 8th inning, bases loaded, 2 outs, and they bring their LEFTY closer into the game. Sticking with fucking Jason Heyward over Albert Almora, who is on the bench and who happens to slaughter lefty pitching, is indefensible. Yes, Heyward hit a 18 hopper weakass grounder through the middle somehow. But it was still a fucking stupid move. Really worked up about this one.
April 12, 20187 yr Javy is heating up. I didn’t realize it was possible to be hitting .212 with an ops of 1.002.
April 12, 20187 yr Hopefully they don't do like last year and get shut out next game. Edited April 12, 20187 yr by WastingTime
April 13, 20187 yr Author Baez is one of the most exciting players in baseball, imo. When he's on he's something to see.
April 13, 20187 yr Baez is one of the most exciting players in baseball, imo. When he's on he's something to see.He’s like Soriano with the bat, but with amazing defense and base running.

For over a year now I’ve been spouting off about him being the most exciting player in baseball on the MLB thread; to the point of obnoxiousness. But he really is my favorite player in the game. There’s nobody like him.

April 14, 20187 yr Had plans to watch, but when I got done what needed to get done, the score was 10-2. Figured I'd watch something else. Javy Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

April 22, 20187 yr Crazy finish for the W! Glad Bryant appears to be Ok. El mago continues to be en fuego!
April 24, 20187 yr Author Bryant gets beaned Posting since he seems to be okay. Quite a shot. Helmet does a 360
April 25, 20187 yr Great game today. This was supposed to be how game 7 finished. Schwarber is comfortable this year.
April 28, 20187 yr Author Darvish played well today. DVR'd the game. We need more of that from him. Hope he keeps it up.
April 29, 20187 yr Author Quintana dominated today. Seven scoreless in a 3-0 win. Maybe we just need to play the Brewers forever
