    That will not go on the HOF highlight reel.

    Whoever we play in the opening playoff series will eat our lunch and it won't be pretty.

    Like a woman who threatens to hurt herself, if she doesn't get her way.

    Serious question:

    What is the likelihood Luhnow sucks up his pride, cuts his loses and released Liriano in the next couple weeks?

    From June 19 to July 19 of '16, the Cubs went 10-17.

    But **** the Cubs.

    Maybe McCann should stage another mock funeral where he buries all the team's bats and gloves, then crawls into the grave?

    I never thought I would piss on a headstone but...

    Let's hope they are going to bounce back strong just in time to peak for the playoffs. Maybe they are just recharging the tanks right now?

    I don't know. I could say that about the offense, but the pitching is kind of scary.

    Wonder what's the chance of Hinch getting fired this off season if the Astros gets bounced in the first round

    He is a Luhnow guy, I doubt it. I think it would require Crane getting angry and forcing the issue.

    While maintaining the best MLB record, IIRC.

    Regardless, Cubs are super popular and CHI has 5+ championships since our last.

    It seems like opponents could start throwing out position players and we still wouldn't muster more than a run or two on them. I'm shocked that I can say that about our offense.
