QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 16, 2016 -> 10:31 PM) Why do you hate Portland LOL Good point!

Move this pathetic offensive team to Portland. My God, man.

Frazier is garbage. Send him back to the damn Reds.

Here comes the Frazier K...hope I am wrong...

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 16, 2016 -> 10:22 PM) Can Frazier be the savior? I smell a bomb As long as it is not a "stink" bomb. How the hell didn't Frazier crush that first pitch fastball?

Per Hawk, 29 consecutive scoreless innings. I wonder what the record is?

I think the aura of the White Sox offense would even make Mike Trout suck if he ever put on a White Sox uniform. When is the last time this team scored a damn run?

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Jul 12, 2016 -> 10:29 PM) You're right, because if the NL loses, the Cubs get a DH to bolster their lineup for an extra game in the World Series. That's assuming a lot, of course. The Cubs couldn't really lose this game. LOL!! Yeah, right...the Cubs (or ANY NL team for that matter) didn't want home field advantage "IF" they get to the World Series. Give me a break. You really are completely consumed by the hype, so much so that you come up with some nonsensical bullcrap when 6 of the last 7 World Series' have been won by the team with home field advantage. Go read some more comic books. #rentfree

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 6, 2016 -> 11:46 PM) Cubs got you shook. lol. You really need some new material, man. The whole #rentfree thing you repeat around here, and constantly saying things like this other White Sox fans is getting really, really old. I used to only read this forum and not post on here...and these kind of comments are all I really ever saw from you personally, even back then. Reading about the Cubs, or any other team for that matter, is just a part of being a baseball fan. I personally find it interesting. With that said, an often injured, high K machine Soler for Miller is ridiculous, it is not that the Cubs got me "shook."

Trying not to get to optimistic here...but it feels great to win and we do play Cleveland 10 more times...hopefully, just hopefully, we can start beating AL Central Teams (other than just beating the Twins) in the second half

"I expect Soler to get dealt at some point--later this year (Hello, Andrew Miller)" That was an interesting comment I read on the chicago tribune website after a Cubs article

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 5, 2016 -> 03:06 PM) Another fastball right down the plate to him Make that Russell: 11 HR's, 6 against the Reds

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 5, 2016 -> 02:33 PM) Must be nice getting nearly 20 games against that Reds pitching staff. Bryant might hit 15 homers vs them this year. Bryant: 25 HR's, 9 against the Reds Russell: 10 HR's, 5 against the Reds Joke if there ever was one, man. COMPLETE joke. And somehow, someway, their overall statistics against this crap team are ignored when acknowledging their greatness. #rentfree

QUOTE (zenryan @ Jul 4, 2016 -> 01:07 PM) Maddon will bring in some zoo animals, the media will eat it up. The Cubs will win 8 of 10 against the Reds/Brewers and the manager who wears fashionable eye wear and drinks wine in his manager's office will be labeled a genius by the media. Arrieta will completely shut down the helpless Pirate offense AGAIN this week, and he will be deemed cured from all his issues as well.

The Cubs are killing the Reds and they are BACK BABY!! Pathetic...they just beat up on garbage, man. Period. Their schedule after the All Star break looks a lot tougher, we shall see how that works out.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 4, 2016 -> 07:27 AM) http://espn.go.com/blog/statsinfo/post/_/i...ns-to-deal-with Those imperfections will be hidden for 3 days once the Mighty Reds take the field. Bombs away!!

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 3, 2016 -> 09:46 AM) He is still 12-3 2.33 ERA. I know he is. But, he I believe he will continue to regress. Sometimes, there are times when a player/pitcher is very good for a period of time, then they just regress. I saw that with Contreras. Hell, Loaiza was "great" for a season in 2003. It just happens. To me, when watching him, he just does not look the same. Additionally, when you continually pitch against anemic offenses like the Reds, Milwaukee, and Pirates statistics will probably be a bit inflated.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 3, 2016 -> 07:21 AM) http://espn.go.com/blog/chicago/cubs/post/...eeps-struggling What's wrong with Jake Arrieta? He expects to beat everybody, and he eats a lot of Kale. He also poses naked for ESPN. If I were a professional baseball player and faced him on the mound, I wouldn't be able to help but laugh at him. I just have a feeling that he is going to make a quick dive back to earth, or that he is hurt...just a hunch.

Arrieta is pitching naked tonight.

Let's take the series tomorrow!!

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jul 2, 2016 -> 06:02 PM) The worst part about the play at home plate was he did a Walter Payton dive over the catcher's head and landed on the plate on his hand. He could have easily broken his wrist. That too...very, very dumb.

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Jul 2, 2016 -> 05:52 PM) Got a text an hour ago from my Astro's fan buddy saying "Lol Eaton is an idiot". What did Adam do now? 1) Slipped and fell rounding third on a single to LF...decided to ignore the third base coach and still go home...got thrown out. 2) Man on first and second, no out (Eaton at second). Decides to steal third...gets thrown out. He has been a bonehead today.

WAIT!!! WAIT!!! DON'T BLOW IT UP!! ADD!! ADD!! ADD!!

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 2, 2016 -> 04:36 PM) Bad play by Valbuena. I'm sure we will take advantage of it. Here comes the bases clearing double.

QUOTE (SouthSideSale @ Jul 2, 2016 -> 04:35 PM) This team can't score with them loaded anyways LOL!! Good point!
