Go Cubs!
Looks like good JTS showed up again.
Am I the only one fucking sick of julianna's cover of bennie & the jets?
Go Cubs!
Press F to pay respects
The combo of Arrieta & Avila is pretty efficient so far.
Arrieta looking a little bit better tonight . Hope he doesn't choke
>>77444209
He'll be back in september
maybe earlier if shit turns ugly
Cubs senpai.
>Lester home run yesterday
>Schwarber bunt single today
okay.
fat guy little bunt
>>77444221
Let's hope it's not an Arrieta blows the lead in the 5th episode.
>>77444221
>>77444218
>Give Arrieta a veteran who doesn't suck behind the plate
>Arrieta does well
Shocking.
Jon Jay-Z with a solid pick for hova walkup music

how the fuck did we miss the fact it's fedora night?
>pic related is last year's hats
>>77444262
I really wish Schwarbs would bunt more, its so easy against the shift and would help him down the road more.
Same for rizzo
>>77444403
>>77444403
I would have gone tonight to tonight's game to get one for shits and giggles, but the bleacher seats were sold out, so I opted to go to last night's game and settled for this ice mold.

I think Jake has a new fulltime catcher
>>77444218
>>77444811
it's the mutual thicc beards
>>77444801
What sort of face is that conveying?
This is a bunt. Notice how the bat is held and the intentional stance. Anything else is a poorly hit baseball.
>>77444900
K, K, and K
I wanna say that Arrieta is back in form
>>77444978
I wouldn't want my waifu to look at me with contempt all the time.
>>77445082
Especially when he's doing this against a pretty good offense. He can't always throw no hitters against shit teams like the Dodgers and reds.
>>77444263
What's up with the facial hair?
>>77445150
Just per her head in the closet then.
>>77445220
Lala can't catch a break anywhere, can she?
Why the fuck would you not walk lamb and hope for a double play??? Is maddon new to baseball
>>77445335
'Cause Arrieta is shit at coaxing ground outs.
>>77445349
Well pitching to a guy with a free base and behind 3-0 in a count is always a walk of there's 1 out. It's basic strategy.
>>77444270
off by 1
>>77445377
Because you don't give away walks if you can avoid it even if it's 3-0 you dingus.
>>77445378
To be fair, if Rizzo or Russel could hold the ball in their gloves they would have taken a run off the board or it would still be 0-0
>>77445404
Literally no. 1 out guys on 2nd and 3rd. You worry about the RISP. Ground ball still scores a run if you don't load the bases. You must be an AL baby.
> It's another cubs make some nobody scrub pitcher look like a cy young episode
>>77445449
Depends on where it's hit, you're a retard if you think all hits lead to a sacrifice play. Hell, coax an infield or shallow outfield fly ball and it's an out where the runners can't advance.
>>77445508
The situation you're describing would result in the exact same out come with bases loaded. You only increase your chances of not allowing a run with bases loaded.
>>77445537
Except you then lose the safety net of giving up a walk which would walk in a run. You must be the AL baby if you can't think beyond force outs.
>>77445578
> force outs with an open base
What am I reading kek.
>>77445429
It's a poor pitcher who blames the tools.
Who's today's 7th inning screecher feature?
bob is soooooo much better than jd
>>77445667
He forgot "Let's get some runs!"
intentionally, I think.
>>77445488
GODley's been great this season (but yea we should be doing more)
>>77445593
You're illiterate, that's what
>>77445596
And it's shit management to make a dicey situation worse.
>>77445773
No argument.
>>77445795
>Didn't even attempt to defend his position
>Has to resort to blaming the pitcher
No argument indeed
well this is a load of hogwash...
I also just noticed that Wilson-Avila is already a functional battery
Let's not see some pitches first. Let's all just swing for the fences. And now this fat fuck.
Well that was predictable. At least he could have tried to get thrown out of a game that was already over by arguing strikes and balls, but you can't really argue when you swung at ghost balls!
>>77446275
Bad inning, cubs have bad games like this here and there (Scwarber and Baez NEED to stop fucking striking out) but he's gone after this year, that at bat proved it. This relievers been making good cub hitters whiff for years too kinda knew we were effed. Cubs just need to see if this core can do it again.
>>77446337
>Schwarber and Baez gone
LOL, put your flag back on swed
