*** Official 2025 Chicago Cubs Thread***

What the heck!! I watched up to middle of 5th with Cubs up 2-1. Then went the Good Friday Mass figuring it would be a tight low scoring game.

Checked the score after and 13-11. I can understand a bunch of runs over 4 innings. But not a 10 spot. Wow. Wow. Wow. Could be a heart-wrenching summer with this pen.

The Cubs need to trade for Suarez, just so we don't have to pitch to him.

I need a way to watch a replay of this. It sounds insane.

The Marquee Network has the replay up on the app now.

I had to leave for a funeral visitation, up 2-1 in the seventh. Did I miss anything???

Carson Kelly with the OPS+ over 300, that’s sustainable, right? LOL, dude is living large.

 

[TClone99]

I’m predicting Happ goes on one of his patented heaters sparked by the grand slam today.

So has a team ever given up 10 runs in an inning and still won?

Well, at least one.

I like winning

This team is fun to watch. Really hope they can carry this at a 162 game pace. Only two concerns are bullpen and the joke that is third base. Have to either get Shaw going or take a peak at Ben Cowles or Jonathan Long because the current 3 are not the answer

Bullpen is a multi pice fix so who knows but if we’re in contention someone to play third should be available before the deadline

Berti in at 3rd today after the other 2 guys butchered balls in the field yesterday.

Swanson needs dropped in the order. He is an inning killer with guys on base

Yup, needs to be hitting 7th or 8th for now. PCA and Kelly swinging hot bats lately could be bumped up some.

So glad Tucker extended, now I can get attached to him and completely lose my mind when he pulls a hamstring a week before the all star game

Wild game, gotta figure out the bullpen

??? Where are you even seeing this?

 

[BigJCy]

Well that's not a great start.

Think I heard today that it has happened 7 times since 1900.

 

[GP4ISU]

CC starting to develop his circle of trust in the bullpen. Thielbar, Keller, Merryweather, Hodge and Pressley. Welcome anyone else who wants in that club - just throw strikes and get guys out.

 

[BigJCy]

Hopefully doesn't come to this and we win the Division but at least we would now have the tie-breaker on Arizona for a Wild Card Spot.

Lets get the sweep tomorrow, if they play (Rain in forecast).
