Reminder Cubs are fucking faggots if they ever trade Ian Happ. They are also fucking faggots for giving Kimbrel essentially same amount as they could have given Wade Davis.

JAVY HOMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

!!!

javy is back, i can only find a Stl broadcast and one of their commentators speaks like a high school girl saying "literally" every 10 seconds fuck this

Go Cubs!
>try not to suck.jpg

wankers not welcome ITT

what about assholes?

They are the worst broadcasters in baseball. Cubs have one of the best duos

how do STL fans put up with this commentator hes been talking about himself the entire inning, nothing about the game.

>there are people who have to listen to some shitty cards broadcasters and not hear based Len and JD sperg about left handed switch hitters for 10 minutes
Never gonna make it lads.

Len and JD always know how to make it interesting.

jim edmonds is based

>Baez hits a 2 strike oppo home run off a pitch at the top of the zone.

Of course he does

They also master the art of relaxing breaks of silence. You don't have to speak every second of the broadcast to make the game captivating. Less is more.

>Baez hits a 2 strike oppo home run off a pitch at the top of the zone.

Of course he does. Sorry Dexter, only Baez can hit those pitches.

St Louis is bizarro Chicago

you already posted this

And they also know not to have dead air too. It's the perfect balance.

Gook moot ate my first post, you're just seeing a ghost.

>Baez hits a 2 strike oppo home run off a pitch at the top of the zone.

Of course he does. Sorry Dexter, only Baez can hit those pitches.

I got a ring in there last night.

Is this post reflecting off the moon?

Mikolas is insanely good. He's dealing except for the lucky hit by javy

>Loses a 9 pitch battle against gonzo

>fagkolas

Why are the Cubs so garbage at stealing bases? It should be 3 ziip

Bob Brenly was better than JD. JD is boring and still doesn't feel like he is a Cubs broadcaster.

fuckin nice hit on full count

This.

ST LOSERS!!!!

>Davis on the injured list.

ouch

Javy Baez frontrunner for MVP this year?

This is what I hate about the Cubs. They get to a guy early and it looks like they are going to blow them out, then they let the guy settle in and shut them out for rest of the game. Feels like Cardinals have the momentum because you know Cubs bullpen is going to crack.

He was never associated with the Cubs before they hired him. I like him for that because Len's quizzes are meaningful.

Yelich most likely wins it again.

I think Javy has been better, if Cubs win the Central he should win

If he was on the Cubs he wouldn't have gotten injured.

JD does suck alot but len is very relaxing. Maybe that's part of the balance.

can someone explain why all the fucking fielders run to the ball?

isn't that offputting to the guy who is actually gonna catch it??

like there's three people that fucking run to where the ball is gonna land and two of them will pull out at the very last second.

it's fucking weird

I think Baez should have won it last year because he was playing between 2B, SS, and 3B all year and still put u[ great offensive numbers. Yelich this year has more HRs, better avg etc than Baez. Most likely a lock in unless he collapses after all star break.

It's difficult to predict the exact flight of the ball. The players are trained to attempt to field the ball and then one of them will call off the others. Rather would have 3 guys run to the ball and one catch it than one guy run to the ball and the wind carries it over his head.

He's been exposed as a Miller Park baby.

bellinger is way ahead in the mvp race right now

Bellinger is a lock if you use those metrics

I guess that makes sense. Cubs don't seem to have a Cy Young or Rookie of the Year contender this year, hopefully Javy can get the MVP. I think there is still time

How does Bryant feel knowing he turned down guaranteed money from Cubs offer and now it looks like they'll be using that money to lock up Rizzo and Baez instead?

Don't want to have a bystander effect either. If you think that way sometimes nobody ends up going for the ball until it's too late.

And if Ian Happ was any good, he woudn't be in Iowa.

>cusb

goddammit rizzo

At the ballpark, the temp is 70, and the wind is 12 mph from the NE. Wrigley is located less than 1 mile west of Lake Michigan. The winds can change and affect the ball trajectory. At any park, it's a good idea to have backup if a player loses the ball.

that’s a funny way to spell Butterfield.

kek_

Cubs killed Mikolos LOL

wow fowler barely had a lead off and still got picked

Why does he send rizzo? This is like the 3rd time this has happened

More like... MIKOLOSE LOL

Does he regret his migration south?

getting tired of this retard

...

Nothing will top the Lester pick off 2 years ago. Doublely delicous because the methinal announcers said he'd never throw to first right before the pick off.

I'd still trade Heyward for him.

NO TRADEBACKS

this

I miss him so much lads

No you wouldn't

Happ's offensive numbers are better than Almora and Heyward right now

they both fucking suck and only play because of their contracts, theyre just different flavors of shit

Heyward fucking sucks brother. Fowler going back to Cubs would give him a confidence boost and would put up all star numbers again most likely.

He was only here for 2 years you faggot.

haha just googled, based.

>methinals

hahahahaha
cubs always superior

To old now, he's finished

Look up Contrerases' pep talk to Lester before it happened

>where does the cubs=gay stereotype come from?

Outside of Strope giving up that homer the pitching was lights out.

Offense got just enough done, but to much left on the table.

It's a bleacher bum basket

They're trying to bring back some of the older culture, like the hard hats and the cup.
