Even though the Cubs lost last night, I’ll be damned if they aren’t playing some entertaining baseball right now. I know the D-backs are terrible, but it doesn’t matter. I’ve still just had fun watching the Cubs play baseball, and watching the Diamondbacks play makes me feel a little better about the Cubs. On one [...]

There aren’t too many good things to say about the Cubs right now. I watched all of Tuesday night’s terrible game and only some of last night’s equally terrible game. What the crap is up with Wells? It’s too bad that Marshall and Gorzelanny are both lefties because it’s looking like Wells should get a [...]

My wife and I had the pleasure of attending the first game of the Cubs-Angels series yesterday. The Miller Lite billboard beyond right field read, “Welcome to baseball heaven.” After watching the horrible defensive play of the Cubs yesterday (and really for a while now), I’m not ready to come to the conclusion that heaven [...]

Just wanted to address that we ripped the Fonze pretty much all year last year. He wasn’t fielding well and his bat was pretty much on vacation when we needed to really make a playoff push.
But Soriano is hitting much better this year. He isn’t swinging at many of the “ground [...]

The Cubs losing baseball games hurts. The Cubs losing to Dusty Baker really hurts. The Cubs bullpen blowing a lead late in the game to Dusty Baker…that makes me want to circle Wrigley Field drinking my pain away. I can handle losses like the one the Cubs were dealt on Opening Day. These blown games [...]

The Cubs wrapped up their opening series in Atlanta last night and head to Cincinnati for their first look at an NL Central Division foe. So let’s take a look back at this, the first series in the 2010 season.
Monday: Braves 16 – Cubs 5
Pitching: Zambrano was bad, Samardzija was worse. Zambrano leaves with [...]

I’ve been a little out of the loop. Not alot of baseball fans in basic training, and even if there were, we wouldn’t be talking about anything beyond January 6th. On my first official day of being able to use the internet to learn of things that have happened. I learned that Cliff Lee’s hurt, [...]

Today was the first televised game of the 2010 pre-season and I am very happy that Lou Piniella decided to hold off the Carlos Silva start for a televised game. What a pitching line:
2IP – 7H – 6ER – 2HR – 27.0 ERA
Was it fried chicken grease on his fingers? Maybe he was just [...]

I try to give Al-Sor the benefit of the doubt, but when your left fielder says this–
“I have my job — before I had to do my job to make the team. Now I’ve made the team and it’s boring.”
– a Cubs fan just has to cringe. Did I take the quote out of context? [...]

The 2009 season is something we’d all like to forget. The injuries and dysfunction weighed heavily throughout 2009 and hopes are high that 2010 will be different on both fronts.
I am not a Soriano fan and I was outspoken about this last year. He earned two swipes from me in the “Most Hated [...]
