wegner Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Thanks for starting this early Quin to move on from that disaster from last night. Great highlight video too....we needed Cody last night in the 9th and 10th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeKreevich Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 What a crazy entertaining game. You can't win them all but wow, that was probably one of the harder ones. From the Chicago Tribune: According to ESPN Stats & Info, the Guardians were 1-626 when trailing by six or more runs in the ninth over the last 40 seasons.

ChiSox59 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Last night was painful, but Sox are still 6-1 in their last 7. We all take that in a heartbeat before the first Cubs game. Let's get the next 2 and get that awful taste out of our mouth. Also, go Astros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the benefit of a little cooling-off time, last night actually had several "long-term" positives. The offense woke up and kept pushing despite some shitty luck at the end. Pollock may have shaken off the dust. Kopech is looking like an ace, which could be huge. The ninth was a comedy of errors that can hopefully be chalked up to "one of those innings" and won't linger. If we win this series all will be forgotten - let's start tonight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly considered taking a break from baseball. No way the players aren't hurting right now. The 6 game streak was fun but it was still the Cubs and Red Sox, and we didn't score more than 4 in any game. Contention years are supposed to be fun and exciting. It feels like as fans we spend most of our time worrying about injuries and riding the roller coaster with this team that started after the ASB last year. Remember how much fun the Cubs fans had from 2015-2020. That is supposed to be us right now. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was more efficient and pitched deeper into the game, would they have needed to use the more inferior relievers. This isn't so much a criticism of Kopech but more on the state of the game and the way starting pitching philosophy has evolved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny comment, especially coming from you, since you don't think he should throw over 110-120 innings. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know plenty of mental case Cub fanatics that were near-suicidal at various times, especially if you count the entire 5-year window you cite. Short of a 110-win season followed by total playoff domination, following the team through this board will never be fun. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live and die by this team as much as the next guy, but sometimes you need to take a step back. Its been a rough 28 games, truthfully. But things can't get a whole lot worse in terms of offensive and injuries and we're still afloat, even with the Twins playing well above their means. Sox are in fine shape. Plenty to be concerned about, to be sure. But considering all circumstances, just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
