The Brewers this series... they can mash.

And I knew Hendricks would take a step back this year but let's hope it's not two steps back.

Hendricks certainly looks like shit to start the year. Cubs need someone on the staff to step up besides Arrieta and Lester. Anderson looks like shit and Lackey is meh.

Home plate umpires are worse than usual around the league so far this season.

So hey do we call Cubs' losses "World Champion Losses" this year? Maybe we start a GoFundMe to raise $$$ so the newspapers can print the Cubs' L column in gold ink?

(....Seriously are they under .500 yet? I'm not worried about them (cuz out of any team in baseball they have the jeimer candelarios, the chips ahoy Jimenezes, let alone the Ian happs that can be used to shore up any holes/problems in/with the team) but hey u know one thing that *IS* 6-certain (let alone "4-certain" =) is that it sure ain't last year right now, no matter how you wanna read into that.

...And if course ballbreaking about the 2017 Cubs = "World Champion ballbreaking" right? Makes me wish I could stop by "the confines" (prolly not too friendly if today's result holds up) to take a "World Champion shit" that requires some World Champion custodians to put in some world champion effort! ....

....CUZ HEY THATS SURE WHAT THE BREWERS HAVE BEEN DOING THIS WEEK, AMIRITE?!?;? =]

These kids just don't give up! The past two games were a statement. This team handles adversity better than any team in the history of sports.

Can we stick Almora into CF and just leave him now?

Grooving a 2-0 fastball to Russell with first base open is just moronic for both Counsel and Feliz. Glad Russell made them pay.

You might be confused on a manager's roles.

Great win but another HORRIBLE blunder by Joe Maddon today. He should have never burned Zobrist as a PH so early. Then in a bottom of the 8th, with runners on, and at a minimum, you need contact at the plate you have no option to pinch hit for Baez, who is overwhelmed at the moment.

Also questionable roster moves, subbing out TLS for a bullpen arm. You literally now have 3 capable middle infielders in Russell, Baez and Zobrist for two positions. Also I know he is out of options, but there is no reason for Szcur to be on the roster anymore. Especially with Almora and Jay performing well. He hardly see's the field. They need another middle infielder on the 25 man.
