Not feeling so good today and with that said Noit going to get upset as to what our team does or does not do today. just not into it today . Sorry my fellow cub fans. No energy and no concern today as to what happens tonight except for the severe weather that may or may not make a apearence later down here by me. I appolgize for the "not caring' attitude. Kindly forgive me okay?
Keep the faith Fonzie / Cubs fans!! Since when have the Cubs ever disappointed and let their fans down?!!
Scratch that, .. Just try to enjoy the games and series and hopefully some good baseball! The injuries have hurt. Hope the skipper can dial in better offensive lineups going forward!
On a related note, who's the hitting coach? Maybe he should be spending some time in the manager's office explaining what he's doing to get these bats going!!!!!
Go Cubs Go!!!!!

I totally agree with you Zman. We have a rookie of the year pitcher, quite possibly even Cy Young winner and he has what, 4 wins in 9 starts? Yet his ERA is under 1! We need some offense! Then after that we need a good reliever or two! If we do anything before the trade deadline wouldn't be nice if we could somehow do a 3 or 4 team trade and get a power hitter plus a mid-game reliever? I think we're finally good on a closer, though he still makes me nervous, but lets stop blowing these 0-0 games when Shota leaves the game after around 100 pitches!
The only series that I would worry about is Atlanta. Not that the divisional games will be easy, but the Cubs definitely have the edge in pitching over both teams. It wouldn’t surprise me if the offense starts getting better as the regulars return to the lineup. With the holes that the lineup has using the replacements, the pitchers don’t have to worry about pitching to the good hitters. I’ve watched this happen in the games the last couple weeks.
Staying close to the top of the division is what they need to do. There’s a lot of baseball left to be played and I wouldn’t doubt that they make a couple moves before the deadline.
Go Cubs!

Looks like the Cubs will be facing Charlie Morton tonight with Assad going for the Cubs. From the reports that I’ve seen, it looks like Swanson will be back in the lineup tonight. Nothing definite on Hoerner, but it sounded like there’s a good chance he will be back too.
The Cubs optioned Mastrobuoni and PCA for reassignment back to Iowa to make room for Swanson and I assume Vazquez.
It will be Steele against Fried tomorrow with nobody slated for game three by either team.
Let’s hope they can generate some offense against Morton like they did last week.

The day off today is a welcome sight. The Cubs definitely need to generate more offense. The defense didn’t do them any favors the last couple games. You can’t make mistakes in the close games and expect to win. Hopefully we get Hoerner and Swanson back for the Atlanta series.
No announcement on pitching matchups for either team as of this morning. Possibly Assad, Steele and Imanaga if they go with 5 days rest. Hopefully they don’t throw Hendricks in this series. It’s going to be tough enough to beat this team without having Hendricks help them out.
The Cubs called up another one of their prospects for the infield. Vasquez could replace either Mastrobuoni or Madrigal, but could be put into action if Hoerner or Swanson can’t go.

Verlander was a great pitcher, but being 41 years old his better days are behind him. He’s actually the 5th pitcher (last) on the Astros starting pitching depth chart.
Had he not walked the 2 batters prior to the HR by Contreras, the outcome might have been different.

They get confused easily with basic math and comprehension skills. There’s only 5 teams in the National League with records above .500 and two of them are in the Central Division.
Let them babble all they want. Everything they post about just shows how little they know about the game and the league. Like a comedy team with nothing but bad jokes
