Yep. It's happening.

Sick of hearing about Jake Arrieta.

He's really, really great. I'm a Cubs hater and I love the guy.

He pitches for the second best team in baseball IMO right behind that other Chicago team.

 

[cavsfan817]

The Cubs are the best team in baseball without question

I'd put the Sox ahead of them based on SOS

 

[Cloud 9]

He's a delusional white sox fan lmao

 

[cavsfan817]

In my opinion the White Sox are majorly overachieving at this point. The Cubs are far and away the best team in baseball with seemingly minuscule holes in their game. I don't really see how they will be stopped.

 

[BrewCrewFan]

Brewers going for 4 straight

Interesting that 8 of the 10 teams that have scored the most runs thus far are in the National League (Boston at #6 and Detroit at #8 are the only representatives from the junior circuit). You might not expect that, what with the pitcher hitting.

 

[PWNdroia]

For sure. AT least the matchups are favorable; the Red Sox do not have to face Sale

Quintana is still good. And they have a bit more depth behind Sale.

I originally thought the Rangers would be the best team out of the AL, but I think it's the White Sox.

 

[Mudge]

Big four-game series Cubs vs. the hot Washington Nationals will test both teams.

Match ups

Thursday: Ross (3-0) v. Hendricks (1-2)
Friday: Scherzer (3-1) v. Lackey (3-1)
Saturday: Gonzalez (2-1) v. Hammel (4-0)
Sunday: Roark (2-2) v. Arrieta (6-0)

 

[A.E]

7-0 lead in the 5th and I bet our bullpen keeps that ER streak alive

 

[A.E]

Simon, easily our worst SP, is the first to go into the 8th inning since Finnegan flirted with a No-No last month.

.....fuck me....... Simon immediately gives up a 2-run dinger.

 

[A.E]

Bout to be a salty douche and buy FireBryanPrice.com

Cubs took the first of this crucial series against the Nationals (assuming a series is crucial at this stage of the season). Pitching continues to be solid, and the run differential is now an impressive +96 (164 to 68).

Also, a fun fact: last night was the first time ever in MLB history that 4 first place teams played in the same city at the same time (Red Sox, White Sox, Nationals, and Cubs).
