Turner is fantastic AND this Cub team is by FAR the best team of all time. Another curtain call for Russel there? I couldn't tell.

Honestly, this was kind of expected after the Bryant HR. Hopefully, we will get them tomorrow and take 3 of 4. Let David Kaplan have his circle jerk with his cronies for at least one game in this series. If we would have won tonight with the ability to sweep all 4 games tomorrow, it would have been panic in the streets and Cub fans would have been jumping out of office buildings.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 27, 2016 -> 09:34 PM) It's scary to me he's only throwing 90-92 out of the pen It sure is. His velocity is way down compared to what his velocity was in college. Where the heck did it go? On top of the velocity concern, he just doesn't look ready at all.

I have a feeling we won't even see Chapman after this inning by Fulmer.

Let's hold 'em here and get a couple of runs off of Chapman...

QUOTE (Wanne @ Jul 27, 2016 -> 09:25 PM) Ranaudo pitched a hell of a game....I would have left him in also. That 3-2 breaking pitch was right in Meat City tho...seems like Baez knew what was coming. Hard to be upset at this kids outing tho...also since he's the only person that's accounted for any scoring. That is the most pathetic thing about this damn game...and damn team in general. This offense just flat out sucks. Although I fully expect Chapman to blow his save opportunity against us tonight

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jul 27, 2016 -> 09:19 PM) Don't count on it. I DO count on it. We will see tomorrow.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jul 27, 2016 -> 09:16 PM) curtain call for a hr... wtf Pathetic, man. Can't wait for Sale to shut these bastards down tomorrow. In actuality, Anthony did great. But seriously, the Cubs looked like crap for the most part at the plate. Additionally, Heyward struck out...the ump saved him.

The Cubs are so damn awesome...circle jerk time on Clark and Addison.

This ump is freaking horrible.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 27, 2016 -> 08:59 PM) I hate all things Cubs the ass kissing on their broadcast is comical. The thing they tend to forget is how they padded that record and division lead in the first couple months by playing a ridiculously easy schedule. They have been sub par since.

Let's get some runs!!

Abreu waaaaay overdue to go deep. Let's do it here big guy.

Hammel really looks like he doesn't have much of anything. It is surprising that he has as much success as he does.

Whew...

F@*K yes...this thing ain't over yet

Got the big guns coming up this inning...ew.

Is Chapman in town?

QUOTE (chicagostatecougars @ Jul 23, 2016 -> 06:33 PM) GO CUBS? Get that crap out of here. Let's face it, they are Chicago's team, man. They are the darlings. Theo and his crew put us to complete shame. It is getting impossible to cheer for this crap.

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jul 22, 2016 -> 10:35 PM) Bryant is a non-starter as he's better than Sale. As far as Russell, that's like asking Houston to part with Correa. He's 22 and improving. He's not going anywhere. Schwarber, Baez, Contreras is more than enough to cover Sale. They definitely won't because the Cubs value Russell and Schwarber too much. LOL!! YOU leave the "stupid" out of the discussion, please. LOL!!

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 22, 2016 -> 09:12 PM) Levine suggesting Baez and Soler for Sale. I hate the Cubs media http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2016/07/22/lev..._medium=twitter LOL, give me a freakin' break. That guy must be going completely senile to suggest something as asinine as that. What a loser living in a completely homer-based dream world. Now, maybe throw in a bag of balls and we got ourselves a "fair" deal. If anything, I hope Sale is traded to a team that plays the Cubs in the playoffs so he can shut them down and shut their damn big mouths.

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jul 22, 2016 -> 09:37 PM) Our front office doesn't give a f*** about the Cubs. Our fanbase shouldn't care, either. And if there's one thing we have all learned, the baseball operations group cares little what "the fanbase" thinks. They know when the team in the black pinstripes wins, the seats get filled. It's not much harder than that. LOL, yeah right. That is 100% wrong. I believe Hahn even admitted as such this past offseason. Even JR said he hopes/wouldn't mind the Cubs winning the World Series...when he is dead.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 16, 2016 -> 10:37 PM) 100% sell mode on everyone but Sale and rookies. I really believe you have to give serious thought to trading Sale & Q. Being competitive seems quite a bit far off for the White Sox. They stink. It is time to rip this thing COMPLETELY apart.

We might as well go for the all-time scoreless offensive innings streak now...just to make it a special season for this special team. How the hell did we start out 23-10?

I am really starting to wonder if this organization will ever get better and if we will ever sniff the postseason again. This drought and the consecutive years of bad baseball, especially bad offense, has completely worn down my fandom. This really sucks.
