Wow... get the leadoff hitter on 2nd and he stranded after 3 straight Ks..
Why wasn't Barney sacrificing him to 3rd...
Whole different inning if that happens

It's not as shitty as you'd think. Prior to today they had a 3.13 ERA good for 9th in the majors. Most of the damage early was Veras. Thing is blown saves happen. Rondon had a 1.46 ERA prior to today and a still good 2.45 ERA after today.

Yeah, the stats might be good and whatever, but it's probably because they all sail through the games when we have a big lead, but if it's close, please believe some fuckass will shit his draws and blow it up. Haha Cubsball!

When does that ever happen? I think they are legit good but pretty young and they don't get a lot of run support. So, you end up with a lot of 2-1 type relief situations and when they blow a 1 run lead it looks ugly obviously. Now other teams you might see more 4-1 type games and if they give up 2 runs they are still getting the save.

Also congrats Silence on winning your bet :D

Cubs are 6-4 in their last 10. Their .414 win% puts them on pace for 67 wins. I'm still sticking with my 70-75 win prediction.

Sweeping the Mets at home .......meh.
Beating an NL East contender like the Marlins? Great !
It's so early in the season.
I hope there's a distinction between precious and tank before July,31

Sorry, like I said it's early.
A lot of non-wonk (meatball) fans want to know if the Cubs will be buyers or sellers.
