This team has the talent and ability to win any single game. But would you pick them to win a series against any half-decent team?

[QUOTE=Cubsfan2011;14943457]wow.

I mean, just wow[/QUOTE]



Well said. I’m a Cubs fan but that was the HR of the season for sure.

not with the current pen, garbage

Today's roster moves:
- RHP Brandon Kintzler activated from 10-day IL
- INF Addison Russell recalled from Triple-A Iowa
- OF Albert Almora Jr. optioned to Triple-A
- RHP James Norwood optioned to Triple-A

Once again the BP fails to close out a game..... I’d be disappointed if I expected a different outcome.

Brandon Kintzler was always popular in Milwaukee...

Time for some MSU basketball boys!

Makes me sick to watch this team the last two games.

Another new low...3 straight walks then single -- another blown save to a crap team. Just embarrassing.

Is it bad that I completely expected that?

[QUOTE=CoolG;14943609]I've been saying it since he arrived. THEO is overrated as the best GM
Most want to blame Joe but he's only playing the cards he's dealt. Look at the talent that has left the place. LOL


disclaimer: getting Cubs the 1 WS was worth it for some (i'm in that boat as a 39 year life long cub fan) 4 years later there are glaring concerns[/QUOTE]

Seriously I saw this post last night and woke up this morning thinking about the "look at the talent that has left the place" statement - so very true - so many thriving away from Chicago...I mean start making a list - I'm probably forgetting some:

Gleyber Torres (star potential)
Eloy Giminez (room to grow, already good)
Jorge Soler (career year lota of HRs)
Dan Vogelbach - all star
Tommy La Stella - all star
Dylan Cease

Anyways the point gets accross looking at the list. To think of what the lineup could be. Just so many damaged goods pitching signings. The Brandon Morrow signing was awful given his injury history.

This team has no business even talking post season when they cannot beat anyone on the road.

They traded DJ LeMahieu two months after Theo arrived...

Cubs win a pitching duel, impossible! Lester with the big game.

A 2 game win streak and series win on the road? Whaaaat? Crazy.

Yes - finally a road series win against the mighty Pirates :)

Hopefully they have a solid week this week, and start a streak!

Great game by Q but since I don’t have one of his cards, I’ll highlight Heyward’s big game with a PC card. Go Cubs!

Welcome home! This is what happens when you have too many Old Styles. Impulse buys. Love this jersey though.[IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190821/c830a64bf979739566367c13d8da691b.jpg[/IMG]

Love all your cards man. :)!

What a game tonight! Needed every single run - good to see them on the right side of a close high scoring game. Need the Brewers to finish off the Cardinals. Every game feels so important right now. Always interesting!

Wow. Just wow.

Castellanos has been amazing since joining the Cubs. Great pickup! I loved the clutch HR, so let’s celebrate KB’s big game!

Thanks! It’s been really fun putting my 2016 Cubs PC together and I’m glad some people appreciate it.

Great stuff! Keep it coming.
Was at the game tonight and it makes me appreciate how special 2016 was.

Hendricks was dealing today! Get out your brooms!
