Official 2023 Chicago Cubs Season Thread Vol: (17-17)

5-1

Should be 6-0 but oh well.

Also, Montero with two more drives to the wall that didn't go out. :lol: :smh:

Need a great start at home from Lester tomorrow.
 
Thank you man.

And I opened this to get away from the Central thread and focus on what Theo was doing. I took a lot of heat in 2011-12 tellin people he was building us right, I wanted this to be a way to track our progress as we turned the corner.

I think it's working. :pimp:


Ha, this is my 50K on the nose. :wow:


.




I remember the thread first started. we followed Theo entire rebuild. we see growth right in front of our eyes.

Javier Baez is down in Triple A getting started, couple good games, they should bring him up to help deepen the bench by mid next week or so. Not to mention he could be the new age Zobrist playin 7 different positions give or take. :pimp:

Theo rattles off features in new #Cubs clubhouse: hyperbaric chamber, cryotherapy, float tank, underwater treadmill, infrared/steam saunas.
 
^
:lol:

Yeah WGN did a report about the new clubhouse and all its new amenities. Makes you realize how bad the old clubhouse was. We finally stepping into the 21st century.
 
Heyward with his first clutch hit, but Bryant needed to follow with his own and couldn't do it. :smh:
 
Missed the game due to work, but caught all the highlites. Amazing stuff. Grandpa Ross getting it started, Heyward with a clutch 2 out knock, and Addy Russell with a gw 3 run tater. Rondon went 1, 2, 3 and Cubbies win. Ch ch ch cheeea!
 
They turned the old locker room into batting cages.
They even added a new "party room" for the players to celebrate lol.
 
Through 17 innings pitched, the bullpen has allowed just 2 earned runs and 1 walk. In the meantime, they’ve struck out 20 batters and have allowed just a .121 batting average against.


Tonight's Lineup:
Fowler
Heyward
Zobrist
Rizzo
Bryant
Montero
Soler
Russell
Lackey

Loaded the top with Lefty's, the Reds pitcher has struggled vs Lefty's the past few years, so they need to pounce on him early and get into their pen.
 
Joe Maddon strategy worked. Simon only lasted 1 winning. we batted around on him.stick a folk in The Reds tonight. they done
