Fuck it's really late for a ballgame edition

west coast games should die

Checked

And they should really stick to no games after 7 unless both teams are mountain/pacific.

>tootblan

We oughta have really early games to get back at them

I actually think these late night west coast games are comfy as fuck.

>le weakly ground out to an infielder man

I wish Joe would stop forcing the Heyward meme on us so hard

>start dozing off around 5th inning
>wake up to excited announcers
>your team is three runs up in the 8th
Very comfy.

What's it like waking up to Cubs games?

Decently comfy. However, that is only for west coast games since they start 4 AM.

Better thing is that the Cubs have the most games that start/end before midnight CET so day games become comfy evening games and I don't need to stay up until very late.

What are drinking tonight?

milwaukees finest ice beer

water that was once cold but is now lukewarm

comfy cusb threads

I had to look that one up.

>Everyone knows that Ice Beers are disgusting, whether it’s Gameday Ice or Asshouse (Icehouse,) but what makes an Ice Beer “Ice?” Well, to answer that you have to understand that alcohol, for all intents and purposes, doesn’t freeze. When they brew an Ice beer, they make it a little colder than usual, so some of the water and other stuff forms ice crystals. They filter that shit out, and since the alcohol didn’t freeze what’s left has more alcohol and less water. So whereas normal beer is like 5% alcohol; “The Yeti” is 5.9%. Many Bothans died to bring us this information.

Southern Tier Pumking. It's pretty based.

JIMMIES HAVE OFFICIALLY BEEN RUSSELL'D

This is Addison Russell's world.

We're just living in it.

>leave to go piss out my margarita
>miss a dinger

Guys I really love watching this team.

Addy deserved to be an all star

Sorry brah

Yeah so do I desu. I'm getting itchy for October but this team is so fun to watch that I'm able to ignore it

Dick Enberg is based, you would honestly think this was the Cubs broadcast

Yeah, I had to tune in again because of the based commentary the Padres have.

damn, went to take a shit and do some other stuff, and it is 4-0 from 1-0.

Baez at 2nd makes the infield defense 2elite

Zobrist in left for the playoffs desu

>turned 30 in july
>now I'm getting tired at 10:30

fuck this shit what happened to me

That would be amazing

you must not have wizard powers

triple
By the pitcher

lmao wow arrieta

honestly this is the lineup you put out there game 1 NLDS/NLCS

I eliminated that possibility in middle school

all downhill from there though

where is soler going to play then?
he was the best player for the cubs in them last year

guys, my mlb.tv is too slow, pls no spoilers

>unironically giving up a standing three-bagger to the pitcher
>the municipal subdivision of San Deigo

>tfw no Schwarber to DH if Cusb make it that far

Right, but he isn't the only one that could potentially be a DH for the cubs

Fuck off faggot

plz no bully this is a comfy thread

jesus christ it's not even september yet get that shit outta here

...

Teboq: beisbol star

i forgot that schwarber got hurt and was on the team desu

imagine if he was healthy

more dingers but less defence

>If you can't say something nice
>you can fuck right off.

deal

cubs got defence for days

>le groundout man
>hits a homer yesterday
>has a long hit, maybe six feet away from another today
Is he, dare I say it, back?

>Schwarber and Soler are all bat no glove
>Heyward and Almora are all glove no bat
why can't they all find a happy medium like Fowler

hard to say what would have actually happened had he not gotten hurt, but he was a definite liability defensively in LF. Contrearas would have probably stayed in AAA until September.

His bat is undeniably irreplaceable but considering Contrearas is a better catcher AND outfielder than Schwarber his injury may have been a blessing in disguise. Obviously if he's healthy you throw him out there no matter what but it would have been nice to have his bat

Almora's bat is decent desu

And honestly rather them being amazing at one thing than alightly above average at everything.

Schwarber fits on the team even less now, unfortunately. He'll hopefully develop into a decent backup catcher at least

>playing a team of 6 Eevees
I like the variety

>jackson
>villanueva

the padres gm is fucked
pls throw eephus though villanueva

I really like Schwarber but I wouldn't be upset if the Cubs traded him away for a really good return. However, I think he can develop into a decent backup catcher behind Contreras and I hope that's what ends up happening.

dat almost dinger

Arrieta has been quietly pitching pretty well tonight. I just realized he was still in the game.

Best game in a while, I think. His last outing made me want to kill myself, he was fucking putrid.

does he get the cgso?

>5-0
>routine blowouts

Is this what it was like being other teams playing the cubs in past years?

yes

...

Jinxd it. He got pulled

Mfw Cubs are the top 2 in MVP and Cy Young

lel JD you crazy man

lmao JD

>no CGSO

boooooo

yeah I would have liked to see it happen but it's probably better in the long run he only goes 8

>take Arrieta out for the 9th

youtu.be/yK0P1Bk8Cx4

I'm upset, he could've done it

...

Pena = scrub

I liked it better when Pena was Derrek Lee's replacement

HOLY FUCKING SHIT THAT PLAY AT THE PLATE

never mind, ump is just blind

We've had a lot of obvious calls go our way recently.

We're not... invested in... are we?

The ump is as blind as a bat!

Pena was in the way, he couldn't see very well

Wtf is with chapman lately.

he hasn't beaten his girlfriend in weeks

>cusb dullpen

STOP GIVING UP RUNS REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

top kek
Not sure, but he's always been a meme. It's only a matter of time before it all falls apart.
>it is now 5-3
Jesus Christ Chappie is a liability at this point

Nice job Cusb fags!
