    Fucking strop. Really? A 3 run homerun? I wish we had a shut down closer. It's scary to think that rondon is next if strop doesn't completely blow the lead.

    Definitely going to make some trades to acquire pitching. Mr. Baez will soon be gone. If Russel can hit .250-.275? Baez is GONE!

    I hope they trade Baez and not Castro. I've been saying it all year that Baez needs to go. The bad part is that teams have now seen how bad he is at the plate which lowers his value.

    Of course Rondon has to make it interesting.....giving up a 2 out, 2 strike double. Then a wild pitch. DAMMIT! What's wrong with Montero? And as I type this out, rondon blows the save. Fucker. Just think if the cubs could have acquired Kimbrel.....

    Bases loaded, 1 out. 2-0 count. You swing at a bad pitch. Shallow fly ball to right, caught, and you send castro who lazily runs towards home and is tagged out by 30 feet! What the fuck??

    Almost the exact same scenario in the 12th inning with a lazy fly ball to shallow right and Polanco trips and falls down allowing the cubs to finally win. That was crazy.

    It is a BIG day in my life.
    For the 1st time in my life I used Stub Hub.
    It was painless.
    I printed my seats.
    I have 5th row upper deck/aisle seats.
    $20 a ticket

    Its a BIG DAY!
    Hahahahahahahahahahaha

    Same seats using the Cubs website would have cost me $84 total.

    STUB HUB ROCKS!!!!!!

    You better not jinx the win steak speedy!!!

    Hey Speedy, when you get tics from stub hub, do you have to print the tickets or can you have them scan your phone? Our Cub's have been such a joy to watch. They are playing a brand of baseball I haven't seen in a very long time, almost never really in my life. It all starts with Joe Madden

    This bullpen is an embarrassment. Not sure why the guy we just traded Castillo for is in AAA, he can't be worse than the garbage we are currently throwing out there.

    I can't believe the bullpen blew another late one. Let's see if they can come back.

    Rizzo is the best 1st baseman in the NL. Combining his hitting, with his defense, and his base running, there's nobody better.

    I couldn't imagine how many more errors starlin Castro would have without rizzo at first.

    4-4 with a 3.86 era. He's pitch at least 7 innings in 5 starts. He's given up 3 runs or less in all but 1 of his starts. I would say he is getting no run support. But he far from blows.

    He is a waste of $100 million

    I disagree. It's not my money being wasted. I don't care who they want to overpay if it gets them to the playoffs. Because whether you like lester or not, the cubs are close.
