The 2017 MLB Thread

Tommy La stella still hasn't reported to triple a lollll duke was on 10 about getting demoted.I don't blame him he was arguably the cubs hottest hitter when they sent him down he was given extra time and still hasn't showed up and they don't have a clue where he's at either

Who was the genius who made the cubs schedule.Cubs at Oakland A's this weekend then back at wrigley for 10 games then BACK to cali for the dodgers and padres.3 trips to the west coast in one season?(opened season at anaheim) Who da fuck thought that was a good idea?

you would have been sick if cubs lost that game the other day

because it was a day game

followed by an off day

then a west coast night game

thats a long time to stay on a loss

that awful 5-15 stretch involved no breaks/luck whatever you wanna call it

its clearly evened out the last 20 games

Yea they've been playing much better since the all star break which makes me think they were fatigued.

What was lost in all of that was the cubs played 24 games in 24 days during the slump that's 3+ weeks with no days off.I still would like to see them hit better with risp that's literally my only concern wit this team.They routinely get on base cuz of the walks but struggle to drive in runs.In the comeback over the marlins they didn't hit nothin ramos imploded

word

their prior struggles were just part of the natural course of a 162 game season

but last game not withstanding it has to be very encouraging to see them scoring runs later in the game lately

Yea I meant to post the cubs seem to score more runs in 7th inning and later than do early in the game and they been doin that all season so I never think it's over.

Wonder what's goin on with Andrew McCutchchen he slumpin bad the pirates basically benched him and said mentally decompress and be ready this weekend.Maybe it's just that down season every player seems to have duke one of my favorite players.

yeah its gotta be one of those years or hes hurt and not saying nothing or something off the field but on the low though cutch has been on a down trajectory since his 2013 mvp season

8.1 WAR that year

6.3 the next

4.9 last season

now he seems to have fallen off the table completely

he is 29 years old and still within his peak so i dont know what the hell is going on

 

[KnowReasonForPeace]

Cubs will be fine come playoff time. That mid season drag hit us and we still have the best record in the league. That's dominance for real.

Let me know where I'm wrong.

We never heard of you (who is this nigga gif) and you are a Cubs fan. You could be legit or a front runner. We don't know. Welcome to the Seats i guess.

 

[Tommy bilfiger]

Soler 3 run HR 1st Ab.Hopefully this cat can get on track and be consistent the rest of the season

 

[infamous114]

Rodney's been a bum since we acquired him.

 

[infamous114]

Nice comeback in the 9th. Ramos redeemed himself

Just nasty

 

[Tommy bilfiger]

Baez is a gold glove infielder and arguably the best defensive infielder in mlb but since he has no position he probably won't even get one which is unfortunate

Been talkin this kid up for 2 years for a reason

 

[O.G.]

I can't find the clip but that play Baez threw out Beltre at first with a one hopper vs Rangers was goat.

 

[King_MOEbra]

Order is restored: We beat the Yankees.

His defense is sick there will probably be a montage after this season of all the plays he's made this season he's a human highlight film on defense

Either Arod retiring or the yankees about to waive him
