The Russell marital problems/divorce going public seemed to have help him play better the last couple of weeks.

I decided that was enough tv. Bulls done. Sox done. Cubs done. As my son said, a good night for Chicago baseball.

Montero said watch out , he thinks they're ready to go on a run . I guess this is a good start.

I get it now ... the secret to winning is to keep Schwarber off the team until the World Series.

They can beat a below .500 starting a horrible pitcher on the road now. Progress!

Hey, it is better than not beating him.

I've said all along that the Cubs have to go 14-6 on these last 20 before the ASB to convince me that they are legitimate contenders. So far they are 3-1.

This kid looks tough. Pair that with Dr Teeth and this is going to be a hard one to win.

Jesus... is it ever possible to tune into this team in the second inning without them being down by at least two runs?

How the fuck many first inning home runs do these guys give up? Does contreras know anything about calling a game? I feel like he is a major reason these pitchers are getting lit.

You don't think Lester , Lackey and Jake throw what they want to throw ?

For a team that already is pressing to hit and score runs , being down a couple early almost every game ain't helping matters for sure

These guys are veterans. I can't blame Contreras. Lackey and Lester have pitched for 100 years.

I think it's HUGE. Psychologically, playing from behind has to affect the offense. There's no way it couldn't.

As I said in a previous series thread the emotional burden of playing from behind consistently will most likely wear a team out at some point over the course of a season.

I'm sure we all thought the pitching was going to fall off a little bit this year, but the complete nosedive is painful to watch. The middle relief is just excruciating.
