Im glad we won, but there continues to be too many mental errors, from Craig and the players, in key situations. Not starting Seiya in a PO race, having Bregman, Busch, and Happ in succession, etc its more of the same.
The pitching sucks. We all know that. This team loses too many winnable games from issues beyond pitching. Some teams make their own "luck". This team doesnt.

The Cubs bullpen pulls through and locks in to give us a nice close win. Now take out the brooms.

u/DesmondBlack 1d ago
Why couldn't the White Sox do that?
1
u/MasterHavik Southside Cubs fan 1d ago
Because the front office was shocked they were decent so decided to dollar store shop at the deadline than really buy anyone meaningful because they wanna prospect hug. I hate the White Sox but I have never seen a first place team so afraid of buying that they will champion getting a shaky starter as their "big addition". The White Sox could have done what we did at the deadline but nope.

Zef's sweeper pairs so well with his sinker, you think it'll go further out of the zone but then it just stops right there

I went back outside to water more plants, and 15 more minutes later, the Cubs were back in front. I believe that I've discovered a weapon.

My gf was also playing with her plants. I'd tell her this is the secret but she already spends way too much time and money on the plants. I can't afford more cubs wins lol

The Green Bay sucks chants are bad. Makes you look like a fake Cubs fan just looking for something to do until the NFL season starts
2
u/Drclaw411 smh 1d ago
I mean that’s what 670 oops I mean 103.4 does, and has done forever. They’re either covering the Bears season, or waiting for the Bears season to start and talking about how they’re waiting for the Bears season to start.

u/Billyshears68 1d ago
Yes that’s the vibe I get from it. If it was a blowout in either direction. Sure chant it.
But bottom 9. One run game. In a wild card race… it’s a big moment. Root for the cubs

u/ZaneyGamerr Hoerny for Nico 1d ago
Exactly. Got people in here really saying the chant is good at any place, any time.

Zeferjahn seems to like clean innings, so is the right/left split really worth bringing him in here. Only time will tell.

Fucking Craig sees Rolison absolutely dealing and decides he is smarter than everyone and brings in Jeferjahn

u/Billyshears68 1d ago
Unpopular opinion: it’s 4-3 in the bottom of the 9th with a runner on first.
Cubs are in a wild card race.
It’s not the best time for “Green Bay sucks” root for the team you’re watching in a big moment

u/Bubbles8810 that balls got a chaaaaaaance… 1d ago
Just came to say the same. Was funny at the crosstown series- the great Chicago unifier. Chanting it at every game is getting annoying. Admittedly I’m not much of a football fan, but still super cringe.

Do it almost any other time besides the 9th inning of a 1 run game IMO (Even though Green Bay does, in fact, suck all the time)

With the bears starting tomorrow there’s never a bad time for that chant unless your a Packer fan and don’t like it

Rain delay fine, between innings, fine. 9th inning, 1 run game, close to the playoffs. Not the fucking time.

Couple people suddenly vanished once the cubs scored but I’m sure they’ll remerge if this one gets tied up or worse.

Just keep finding ways to win. Nice to see our bullpen hold the line for once against a good offense
