Zac Gallen's line: 5.0 Innings, 3 Hits, 6 Walks, 0 Runs. This includes 2nd and 3rd with nobody out in 5th and he had over 90 pitches at the time.
This team is clutch.

You would have thought that one of those .190 hitters would have come through. Then they would have only lost 3-1 or maybe 3-2.
If the season was 20 games maybe I could watch, but I'm not watching this crap 162 times. Life's too short to waste it on garbage.
According to the schedule, both are Cub home games. They play Dodgers 2 more times at Wrigley and 3 times at LA.
No. It was Suzuki and Happ that struck out for the first 2 outs.
IF I watch (which isn't too often) it's in double speed. As soon as they get down by 2 or 3 runs I quit. This team never comes back from a deficit.

well, they have no reason to be buyers.
they either need to sell some talent at a high price or they need to stand pat and ad to the roster in the FA market this winter
its not good right now as is .

Sadly I guess, I still watch essentially every inning of every game.
-- Prefer watching the Cubbies over any/all other MLB games.
-- Definitely prefer baseball over the Olympics.
-- Admittedly, I will prioritize Bears/Illini football if on simultaneously this fall (and then watch Cubs later that day)
Thinking we just might be in the midst of a 7-game win streak that will change Jed's thought process.........
You have more patience and time than me. I will try to watch every Bears, and Illini FB & BB.

Cubs' offense continues their first half dominance heading into 2 crucial series at home after the All Star break, hitting on all cylinders with 7 runs in 5 games.
PCA and Morel can't be on a winning team's lineup. (Not saying they shouldn't be playing.....just saying a WINNING team's lineup.)

The number of ex-Cub trash pitchers the Brewers have on their currently 1st place roster makes me extremely angry at the world.
Colin Rea leads their team in wins and Trevor Megill leads their team in saves.

Let me correct myself. Morel shouldn't be playing. His hitting has been a bigger disappointment than his fielding.

Dip your nuggets in my staff source sauce.
And now the Cubs are officially done.
I would accept them being as good as the Pirates.
I can’t understand how a team as desperate for Slugging as the Cubs are, who don’t have an everyday DH, can’t figure out how to get Alexander Canario Big League at bats.
In any case, if the Cubs are going to be scoring 2 runs a game, they should be doing it with Canario, Caissie, Mervis and Ballesteros in the lineup.
Clear the way for Shaw, Triantos and Alcantara to move up to AAA.

One of these is not like the others.
I know how awful Mervis has been in his two short stays in the Majors. Still, he’s slugging over .500 in over 900 plate appearances at AAA and is 26. Either give him another shot or get him out of the system.

He's the epitome of a AAAA player.

most Cub fans , myself included , were willing to give the Rickets a 5 year honeymoon for winning a WS & making the park & immediate area a truly awesome place for any baseball fan to take in a game .
But since the 2022 season (post covid) , they have been a disaster . it’s time to get real about winning or get out of the game . there is just no excuse .
I can’t watch them anymore and haven’t since mid May when they started losing 2 outta 3 every series

Just wondering out loud here...is PCA still considered a blue-chip prospect?

depends is his hair blue again ?
I have been in and out depending on recent results. It's become like watching the same movie over and over again...the surprise twist is always that we get a slim lead and lose the game in the late innings.
