    Cubs fans apparently think this is bottom of the 9th in Game 7 and not the middle of August in the 7th.

    It's bad enough they're losing but decisions like that mean he has no business managing in the big leagues

    That wasn't a swing. Baseball sucks.

    Bryan lifted a dominant starter at 80 pitches so that Patrick effing Kivlehan could hit.

    Love it, absolutely love it.

    I can't find fault in them being excited for a big moment in a baseball game.

    Still fine with it. Would rather Castillo throw 80 pitches than 110.

    If you're trying to win games though, yeah no lol
