    My my, how quickly you've turned. Since June 25, Lester has given up in each start 4, 0, 0, 4, 0, 2, 2, 2,2, and 7 earned runs. He had a bad game. EVERYONE has them. I think everyone needs to calm down. Lester is fine.

    Well maybe it was because I actually got to watch it... :lol:

    Yea he has been solid since all star break with the exception of his last start. What worries me is the bone head plays he has been making..not covering first on ground balls the right side (3xs in his last two starts) and his failure to keep runners close on base. His lazyness reminds me of Castro. Small details but important nonetheless.

    Arrieta ace no doubt.

    If baseball were only 8 innings, we'd be 60 games above 500. Un. fucking. real! 8 2/3 with an 0-2 count and you let a guy batting .223 tie the fucking game.

    Hey there Fellow Cub fans….So my girlfriend and I are heading out west for the Giants vs Cubs games wends and thurs. Keep an eye out for me in the right field bleachers front row close to the right field foul pole. I will be wearing a Gaudy florescent Pink hat so my buddies back home can see my ugly ass when ever the ESPN cameras pan out to the right field Wall. GO CUBS!!!!

    It's been 7 yrs since we've had a reason to be excited, we should enjoy it. I hear you though, keeping it in perspective. Gonna need a lot of caffeine the next few days, plan on staying up late for these games.
