2017 Cubs o96.5 wins?

[DarkStar]

Under for the limit

You actually gonna win one pal...

<< since the phillies suck my only rooting interest is against the cubs dodgers and nationals.

edit: the giants can't suck a fat one as well

 

[VIEJODINOSAUR]

I know you're good for it. You trust me? I'll go for a dime...

I saved you a dime....you should send me a hundred for saving you...

 

[HarryCaray]

35 games into the season
127 games remain

Everyone relax. This must be the same group of know-it-alls who was burying the Cubs last year in the NLCS and the WS.

 

[CHOPTALK]

It's probably not a 97 win team.
still a WS comtender but not a 97 win team.

 

[CHOPTALK]

You gotta have 3 stud starters to win 97 and they don't have that

It wouldn't surprise me if they add a SP, but yeah, pitching has regressed. Not shocking.

Not happening .

when Hayward is your 2nd best hitter you got issues

 

[HarryCaray]

Yeah really struggling right now, not sure what's going on. Obviously a loser bet.

 

[CHOPTALK]

Can't believe how chalky the line is on the cubs today .

I have Schwarber on both my teams. He's my catcher on Yahoo and I mistakenly thought he'd be my catcher on CBS.

Anyhow, what a horrible two months, what's the deal? What's the talk in Chicago?

Are they going to stick with him? Is he going to start riding the pine or get set down? Are they going to drop him way down in the lineup?

I'm sure Madden is going to start pushing buttons

Hes already in a platoon

 

[NBAcapper08]

Batting him 1 or 2 made little sense to me

He's still got good plate discipline and isn't chasing. He's just swinging right through pitches he should hammer.

They haven't been starting him against lefties. He's been dropping down in the lineup, 7 spot today. Talk is that he may be sent down for a bit if he can't turn it around, but that's all conjecture. This FO has shown a lot of patience in letting struggling young players figure things out at the major league level, so I don't think it is imminent by any means.

You've been quiet recently.

Long shot but not dead yet.

43-19 finish. could somehow happen

 

[HarryCaray]

Pretty easy remaining schedule. Jake has been Jake lately, Hendricks is healthy again, and with the addition of Quintana they are running 4 studs out there. A lot of hitters primed for bounceback 2nd halves.

It's definitely possible.

So now you're gonna bump this after every loss?
Annoying

I at least waited until they won 11 of 13 before I bumped it.

Try to love your own team at least as much as you hate mine.
