Well, well. Look who's here to brag about predicting another loss.

Your record for predictions is exactly the inverse of the Cubs record on the year.

He's not bragging about the loss. I think it's more of a message to those people who keep saying nobody is going to catch the Cubs.

I see you've really grasped that concept of it being over a period of time, and not predicting each and every game.

Yes he is. He has predicted, whined about, worried about, kvetched....whatever words you want to use.....every single day since Opening Day.

He will literally be happy to see the Cubs lose the division to justify the fact he has not enjoyed a single game all year.

He was silent for the seven game winning streak for the most part. But a 2-1 loss has him on the ledge again.

Lol

Where you all go ?

You give up ?

You must of saw the data saying the Cubs were only gonna score 1 run off a starter with a high 4 ERA, leave 10 guys on base, strikeout 12 times, and Maddon would use Caratini over Schwarber to PH in the 8th with bases loaded...

Oh and the Cardinals and Brewers win easily

Tough 12 game stress here and they have to actually play the games and win, data wont save them

The Cubs have a 3.5 game lead in the division which is always a good but not great number on September 1 but the Cubs also lead the NL in wins and second in run differential.

I don't know what to say at this point especially considering they've done this all without their best player for only six games in the second half.

Cubs Designate Luke Farrell, Rob Zastryzny
September 1st, 2018 at 3:32pm CST • By Kyle Downing
The Cubs have a pair of roster casualties today amidst their first round of September call-ups: right-hander Luke Farrell and left-hander Rob Zastryzny have been designated for assignment in order to clear room on the roster for outfielder Terrance Gore and infielder Taylor Davis, whose contracts have been selected from Triple-A Iowa.

Farrell has done more harm than good for the 2018 Cubs team; his 5.17 ERA and 5.19 FIP are nearly identical, indicating he hasn’t shown the skills required of an effective major-league pitcher. While his ability to miss bats (11.20 K/9) might disagree with that assumption to some extent, his command issues (4.60 BB/9) strengthens the case that he isn’t a useful major-league piece at this time. His biggest woes come from the fact that he’s an extreme fly-ball pitcher (30.6% ground-ball rate) who allows an excess of homers (17.5% homer-to-fly-ball ratio).

The 26-year-old Zastryzny has seen less of an extended look at the MLB level, but showed even less promise than Farrell in that small sample. He’s allowed three earned runs while walking four batters in a 5 2/3 inning sample size, and while it’s perhaps unfair to draw many conclusions from that limited opportunity, his 2018 Triple-A performance doesn’t necessarily help his cause. While the 3.86 ERA he posted in 56 innings there might seem serviceable on the surface, the 4.68 FIP and 4.52 xFIP lurking underneath paint an entirely different picture. He also walked a batter every other inning on average while with Iowa.

Well, the word "epic" finally caused me for the first time in over 2 weeks to read one of Mr. Doom's posts. So he says he's gone...doubtful. Give this other Forum at little time to see his act...things won't be any different over there. Actually with him on ignore he's been gone for me for quite awhile and I honestly have been finding this forum considerably better. Maybe some of the better posters who have been absent will return now.

And if the Cubs play at the .593 rate at which they have played to date, they win 95 games this year.

Also, the top three records in the NL are all in the NL Central...


BTW -- through gallbladder surgery and back home. Difficult procedure, gonna take longer for this 60-something body to recover from it. So, I ought to be able to watch most of the remaining regular season games. Commenting on them while on pain pills might get, um, interesting... :D

My dad had that in the last 5 years. Took him a few weeks to get back to full strength but he got there without too much issue.
