MLB : Don't see Cubs losing 5 in a row

Was at game. Sick that it was that close. Cubs pitchers combined for 2 hitter. Had Russell not flubbed first ball of game it could have been 4-0 final very easy

How good is Willson Contreras? Is he this year's version of Kyle Schwarber?

nice hit bigday but trust me on this one, avoid games that are over -150 in baseball. this isn't mma.

He is impressive. I keep waiting for it to cool off but think he went 3-4 and is batting over 400 right now. I get that it's very small sample size but to hit mlb pitching that well this early is awesome. Did have a couple of fielding problems when they moved him to first but have to think he won't play a ton of first and has to be hard to be playing so many positions. Fun kid to watch.

Old man Odom, you pouring the Cubs today?

[ByeShea]

Holy shit people over reacting to a bit of variance in a 162 game season. The previous 4 games don't make the Cubs anymore or less likely to lose tonight than if the won the past 4 or 14. Each game is its own individual game

Not exactly true. Teams get hot and teams slump, Cubs aren't immune. I'd avoid trying to pick the bottom. But it's true that a losing stretch within the 162 doesn't mean much.
