Good chance to take over 1st place today. Go Cubs!

4/20/2008 4:05:17 PM

damn you know the Pirates wish there was a mercy rule today.

4/20/2008 4:43:51 PM

This team is looking stout. I was appprehensive of Dempster making the switch to starter but he has been the real deal Holyfield, 3-0 in 4 starts with his only ND coming in 7 innings of one-hit baseball. I am really really stoked. Also, I <3 DLee.

4/20/2008 7:45:07 PM

^ true. The only thing I can say is that I am somewhat wary, due to the fact that half of our wins have come against the pirates, who suck. But the cubs are really playing well, just a thought

4/20/2008 8:03:11 PM

I can agree although 2 straight sweeps of any team is rare. What bothers me is that, although it didn't really affect the game due to it being a blowout, the bullpen is giving up late inning runs.

4/20/2008 8:06:30 PM

Pirates are pretty awful, but its nice to have the Cubs up .5 game early in the year than playing catchup like usual.

4/20/2008 8:49:17 PM

Reed Johnson needs to take one in the throat if hes going to lean in to everything.. That HBP was like two inches off the plate...

Big win tonight. Heck of an 8th.

Reed Johnson covers the plate, but Heilman balks. We're even.

4/21/2008 10:00:56 PM

4/22/2008 5:37:21 PM

Cubs come back to beat the Rockies tonight.

Per ESPN, it is the 10000th win in the history of the Chicago Cubs franchise. The only other team to have reached that milestone was the New York/San Francisco Giants.

4/24/2008 12:59:08 AM

Big series starts against the D'backs tomorrow night, the team that swept them in the playoffs.. It would be an excellent sign if the cubs could get 2 of 3

5/8/2008 9:15:42 PM

5/13/2008 3:42:48 PM

Went to my first Cubs game at Wrigley tonight. It was awesome...except they lost, and it poured down raining most of the night. Luckily we were under the grandstand. Wrigley was amazing though

5/14/2008 12:46:36 AM

^ that's great man. Now just imagine if you were there in July with temps in the low 80's and a clear bright sunny day game in the bleachers.

5/14/2008 10:17:00 PM

Lets see how Edmonds performs today....

alfonso soriano is unfreakingreal

7 homers in the last 6 games, don't even want to try and count his rbis

wow

5/17/2008 3:14:07 PM

The chicago sorianos are doing well!

5/17/2008 3:43:33 PM

this would be a fucking huge win if they can get one from a red hot astros team tonight, imo

5/19/2008 6:55:05 PM

I bet a tiny bit on the underdog Astros to carry on with the win from last night.

I lost my bet.

5/19/2008 11:09:02 PM

I just got bleacher tickets for the Memorial Day game vs. LA. Well worth the $90.

Never been to Wrigley before, but I can't think of anything better than sitting in the bleachers for a Memorial Day afternoon game at Wrigley. Unless it rains, of course.

5/20/2008 10:42:33 AM

suck those cubbies balls, they have best record in the league

[Edited on June 1, 2008 at 5:50 PM. Reason : .]

6/1/2008 5:50:19 PM

life is good, ladies and gents

13-1 vs the west (and without playing the lowly giants) with sd coming up this week

6/1/2008 10:14:50 PM

Interesting stat: This is the first time the Cubs have been 1st in MLB on June 1 since 1908. Let's do more things that haven't been done since that year!

Go, Cubs, Go
Go, Cubs, Go
Hey, Chicago, what do you say?
The Cubs are gonna win today

My view from the Wrigley bleachers from Sundays game...my graduation present

6/4/2008 6:38:45 PM

Trying for a 3rd consecutive sweep tonight. Here's to hoping that Lilly pulls it together and cotts / hart can pick it up after last night's shitfest.

6/4/2008 9:00:14 PM

bump for a huge game on WGN America tonight

it's also on ESPN but you should support WGN instead

6/18/2008 6:22:06 PM

screw WGN if ESPN has it in HD

6/18/2008 6:36:04 PM

hope you got to see the sweep in HD

6/20/2008 6:41:39 AM

great game from a-ram to get this team back on track. lilly might have the lowest era in baseball if it wasnt for hrs.

6/20/2008 7:45:04 PM

http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=gallo/080620

this is in no way directed at 'real' cubs fans.... but I know way too many 'me too' cubs fans coming out of the woodwork that I loved this article...

if the cubs can win it all - at least we wont see as many red sox fans around here, eh?
(the A's will surprise everyone tho)

6/20/2008 11:22:25 PM

Looks like ya'll got Harden from the A's

hey does anyone know how to get streaming CSN .. apparently that's the channel they show alot of games on. thanks in advance hopefully!

7/8/2008 6:56:15 PM

double post: Hell yes, the Cubs got a Dick HardOn

7/8/2008 6:59:11 PM

Highway robbery. Murton and Patterson are scrubs at best. Gallagher MAY turn out to be solid.

7/8/2008 8:06:48 PM

Gallager sucks, he made me some dollars fading the cubbies when he was pitching.. he's a good triple A player at best.

7/8/2008 8:25:04 PM

Whoa... Samardizja has some nasty ass stuff...

7/25/2008 10:21:45 PM

He also went to Notre Dame.

Say, you wouldn't know anything about that, would you?

7/25/2008 10:43:50 PM

Great win tonight, D.Lee with a big hit

7/29/2008 1:54:15 AM

woot

7/29/2008 11:16:37 PM

If Rich Hill hadn't collapsed, this could be the best starting 5 in baseball:

Z
Dempster
Harden
Lilly
Hill

Marquis has good days and has bad days. I'd love to see Samardjiza in that 5th spot next year. It's easy being a Chicago fan right now. Here's to hoping that Wood is as good as he was earlier in the year when he comes back. And that Howry gets demoted when he does.

Go Cubs Go
