MLB: ***Official 2017 Chicago Cubs Season Thread***

[Shawker]

I'm so confused. Where is dahiltonhaus???

Brewers with an off day tomorrow before 3 in Washington. Cubs have struggled with the Sox through the years, but I fully expect the Cubs to at least be a 1/2 - 1 1/2 games ahead in the Division by the weekend.

I don't know who the Pirates have this week but it's not unrealistic to potentially see the Cubs with a 3-4 game lead in the division come next Sunday.

Giants and Padres, I believe.

Rizzo has an OPS of .385 over the last seven days and the Cubs are 5-1. That's a very good sign. They've been getting contributions from all over the lineup and now they get the full starting rotation back with Hendricks going today.

Two day games in a row! Gives me something to listen to at work!

Cubs are now 24-18 vs the Central, which is the best record in the group. The only team in the Central they have a losing record against is the Pirates.

My man Heyward putting up a .371/.405/.629 line over his last ten games. Love seeing him with some real hard contact.

I chuckled at "my man"

Daughter and I watching this game, and I'm a little bothered.

I turned to ask her if they would pitch around Javy with the pitcher coming up, and they did it in the time it took me to turn my head.

Forgot the new, speedy intentional walk.

Great RBI for Hendricks!

 

[chuckd4735]

I forgot Rick Renteria managed the Sox. Surprised he is leaving Gonzalez in here...hopefully we can make him pay.

 

[chuckd4735]

Ugh that was close. Blew a great opportunity there. Hopefully we get the Sux's pen from here out.

 

[cyfanatic13]

Well this has been a let down so far.

 

[CycloneErik]

I heard the Sox lost 9 in a row, and that concerned me, only because 10 in a row is really tough to do.
That said, still a chance to do it.

This is a lot like ISU/Iowa. Records dont matter. I fully expect a split this week.

This is pre all-star break hitting today. Jebus.

 

[CycloneErik]

Throwing so many chances away.
