Tfw you live in Milwaukee and get to see the cubes tomorrow and Saturday.

Not gonna lie, The Brewers have a comfy stadium

one of my favorite venues to watch a game. Best seats in the house are first come first serve toyta deck outfield seats. I buy a $10 Uecker seat and go out there. Perfect to catch dingers and there is a full service bar right there. Plus the food is bretty gud.

lynn is super underrated

It's not like there's anything else to do in Wisconsin other than see that giant fiberglass Muskie.

fuck a cub

Lackey is such a meme

fug

LACKEY MAD AT STUPID BEN'S CATCHING!

LACKEY SMASH PUNY BEN'S FINGERS!

hes done for. He was a huge liability towards the end of the season last year. Our starting rotation is fucked if anderson doesnt pan out

Anderson is probably going to get injured at some point this season.

The cubs are fucked if Lester and Hendricks are the only reliable pitchers.

>3-0 this fast
well I guess the cubs are just gunna take the L early today

John Lackey is such a lackey

FUCK A CUB
U
C
K

A

C
U
B

Lackey rage is the best.

I remember him just screaming FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKKKKKKKKKKKK when the cubs scored on a throwing error in the 2015 NLDS

WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO THIS TEAM????

CANT HIT FOR SHIT
CANT PITCH
CANT FIELD FOR SHIT

Just delet my life up senpai

they were due regression with that BABIP on defense last year

Ive seen the cubs commit more field errors and misplay infield balls more in 3 games than ive seen them in 2 months last year

This, plus it looks like they are just unprepared

Didnt't he and Molina like get into a scuffle in the dugout once

>All these errors the last 3 games

not sure, but i imagine there are more people in the mlb that have had a scuffle with lackey than havn't

The problem is all the shit that happened this game so far and last game were preventable if they didn't fuck up on basic plays.

This inning should have been over on a double play.

>rags

soon

You faggots are down by 3 runs in the 2nd and you're talking about the team falling apart. You guys sound like white sox anime fans

If you watched the games the fielding has been horrendous these last 3 games. Like little league tier

>muh pilates

ugh so its not just the cubs who bought into that meme

Who is saying they are falling apart?
People are disturbed by the unpreparedness of the fielders and the fairly shit pitching

fuck of tripfag, you are reddit cancer

RIP Fat Adams : / Fucker is looking trim. I bet he wouldn't even have to kiss any boys to get free beers in boystown.

you're as pissed off as Lackey

just name fagging desu. Hes not a trip

Still the Cubs circle jerking continues, as they are hardly able to beat the Cardinals, a team that has all but been written off for this season.

john lackey sucks

Anyone else find creative ways to get free beers in Chicago?

Heyward is the same hitter as last year lmao

theres nothing wrong with pilates though, at its most basic its just strengthening your core, and improving flexibility which is always good

Essentially a trip at this point

Be a female under 180

Tell people I was an extra on Shameless

Unless you have a real job and arnt a poor college fag the only real way to drink on a dime is $30 all you can drink specials for like 3 hours. Everything else is way to fucking expensive. I went to cubby bear just kept ordering drinks and they serve you 10 oz plastic cups. Figured they were $4 tops since they were small. Nope fucking $7 for those tiny shitty buds. Ordered like 10 during a game. Never again

Can someone explain to me why the FUCK Hendricks is pitching fifth, 8 days into the season without muh veteran Lackey or split up muh lefties maymays?

Match ups

I didn't mean to quote you

maddon is fukn overated

its the players that are good

dude exposed himself in the post season with meme moves

ERA leader pitches on the 8th day of the season because muh fucking matchups nice fucking meme.

this season was always going to start slow, championship hangover and it's only exacerbated by how big a win it was

Wouldn't it be advantageous to hit the opposing pitcher with the ball?

...

Agreed he's an overrated in-game manager.

what the fuck were you expecting from Maddon?

Is MMA in offseason or something?

moLester, is that you?

Does that guy even show up in Cubs threads?

Is this Lackey's last season?

please post the boys town incident

...

Maddon may have had one of the worst managed games I ever seen game 7. He got lucky the players bailed him out.

thank you lmao

So, when did KMOX start running ads all the fucking time, like in the middle of an inning?

yeah, Maddon handles his players well from a psychological standpoint, and he is creative with lineups and such

but strategically he gets too much credit for his ability

> tfw a trip fag got btfo so hard he quit Sup Forums
Dont even care if he was a cub fan.

He still posts

Lynn a lock for come-back-poty ?


Bryant becomes the new Bruce Harper?

white cux win 60 games?

110 imo, BUT we will defend the cup and take a pathetic picture again.

does anyone actually care about this?
I get more pleasure out of watching the cux fail during a season than just watching the cusb beat them

> it's another cubs can't hit episode
Is there a team that is as hot/cold as the cubs?

>JD and Len taking the piss out of all the Ottoman Empire jokes

probably

Mid day comfy game thread and no one is posting.

;_;

Some game threads ended with laround 30-50 posts in the past, this is fairly active

particularly for a day game thread

anyhow, id be following more closely if the cusb were hitting well, or fielding well, or trying not to suck

yeah nothing interesting or noteworthy is happening, although Lackey seems to have gotten his shit together

> Kris Bryant can't get a hit
> Heyward has more hits and rbis so far.

Meanwhile in bizzaro world

The other day when Waino threw that wild pitch, I was so hoping that it was him throwing his arm out. I really hopeful they don't get sentimental and give him an extension.

Lackey has 2 hits and the rest of the team couldn't hit off a tee.

They probably shouldn't. You have to figure with all the injuries he has had, he's a lot older than his age. But you're a piece of shit for hoping for him to get hurt.

that hustle from lackey. kek

Finally something cool happens

SCAAAAAAARRRRRR!

Better to burn out than fade away.

Better to wish for an injury too?

fuck off man

He doesn't bring much to the club besides locker room prayer meetings.

When hes healthy

> taking the piss
*looks at flag*
The fuck?'

Holy shit Bryant do something

still lame as fuck to wish for an injury to a player man

No

yes

Not as lame as being a triggered snowflake.

reeeee

I'm at the gym, game cast says Diaz doubled but got to 3rd. What happened?

advanced to 3rd on wild pitch

> tfw Rizzo, ben, and addy up is now the worst part of the line up.

Shoot me

+ bryant
what is his k% so far, like 60?

Hehe looks like we were wrong

You know Adams is feeling like that kid whos dad forced him to play little league and is sitting in left fielding praying a ball doesn't come in his general direction...

Cubs WILL win this game.

based caesar

Molina confirmed cheater
