f.reyes with his 2nd triple with the cubs.

time to bat him leadoff and have him steal some bases.  maybe have him patrol CF.

My daughter and her family live in view of Miller(!!) Park, and I have enjoyed many tailgates at (my opinion) the most drunken ballpark I've been at. (Mixed feelings there).  Still, I want Milwaukee to win the division and get eliminated in the playoffs.

not really feeling girardi in the booth so far.  pre/post-game show or something, maybe, sure...but booth...meh.

it's not terrible, but it's a bit dry for a color guy.  he's like a half-asleep ron coomer.

it is crazy how many younger people got into baseball during the pandemic.

i am seeing a whole lot of late teens and 20-somethings at games all over the country.  there's a whole lot at today's game in all parts of the park.

baseball cementing new fans from casual to dedicated.  nice.

ow...wisdom jams his fingers into the ground and sandpapers them across the dirt on a slide home.  he's hurt...hopefully nothing broken.

fun game.  cubs tie in the bottom 9th, 10th, and 11th.

Submitted by crunch on Sat, 08/20/2022 - 08:53 pm

contreras wins it with a walk-off single in the 11th.

only his 2nd career walk-off hit.

this was an extremely fun game.  5th win in a row.

Rob Zastryzny called up by Mets, once upon a time he was a Cub. Gotta love all the y'all and z's.

wisdom out for a while, getting xrays on left hand (fingers)

also, k.thompson to the 15d IL (lower back tightness).  a.espinoza up.

it's starting to look highly likely that only 1 cubs starter has a shot at 150ip this year (j.steele).

can't blame SP injuries for the 2022 cubs woes, but it didn't help.

steele has 41.2ip more innings to reach 150ip and 8-9 more starts to do it.  that's not a sure thing.

pujols pinch hit single today.  absolutely on fire since the all-star break.

22 for 49 with an ob% just under .500...7 homers, 3 doubles.

8 homers away from 700 career.

    Folks, I've known Richard Lovelady since he was an 18 yr old Freshman at East Ga State College in Swainsboro, Ga.

    I was the WBB Coach at EGSC and Richard was their prize recruit from outside of Hinesville, Ga.

    My roommate was the Pitching Coach there.

    Richard showed up a skinny, loose lipped, 83mph Lefty. Pretty good basketball player actually. 

    My roommate became the head coach.

    Richard came back from a minor injury for his Sophmore year a more serious man. He hit 90mph and started mowing GA JUCO hitters down. It was really fun to watch.

    He was the first D1 signee for EGSC baseball (school had only had athletics for five yrs at that point). He went to Kennesaw St and became their closer. One yr later, he hit 100mph and KC drafted him in the 10th Rd. 

    He lost the high velo with a surgery a while back.

    It's so cool to see him in MLB. And now he's a Cub!! It's crazy to realize I actually "know" a Cub.

    He's a legit good guy.

    Easy to root for!!!

    Tim. Thanks for remembering Lee Elia Day. It will always be one of the most epic rants in all sports.  It took about 3 seconds to recognize him from your picture but I  did get it right. 

    Now that Les Grobstein is no longer with us, that might contribute to this grand piece of Cubbery fading.

    Just like fine wine, it should be heard...unedited. 40 years, wow.

    Does he have any options left, Phil?

    morel in the lineup and playing 3rd.

    Richard Lovelady one walk & 20 K, 22 hits but no HR, high ERA, and two-to-one GB to FB in 12.1 IP, so I would guess that's why he got the call. Sort of the exact opposite of Luke Little. 

  • Dolorous Jon Lester (view)

    Definitely surprised about Dick Lovelady. He has a phenomenal name but that’s probably the best thing he’s got. I was kinda hoping for Wieck even though he’s apparently still tossing 86 as his heater 

  • crunch (view)

    wicks 15d DL...cubs select...get ready for this one...richard f'n lovelady.  lovelady's stregnths include being able to throw a ball left handed and that's about it.

    also little optioned, palencia up.

    straily's a bit rusty...

    Open 40 man spot might see the return of CJ. He’s been okay in Iowa. Teheran has been rocked in his starts this year. SSS of course.

    Wouldn’t be shocked seeing another 40 man spot open with Brewer losing his spot.

    Word is that Counsell thought Mervis and Wisdom got too much work in yesterday so it will be Wesneski.
