OT: Other Chicago & General Sports Thread XXXVII: Arrieta no hits the Dodgers!

[ObeyPerry]

Jake Arrietta .... Working another great performance.

 

[TorMenT]

I'm surprised Arrietta was kept in for so long. Well over 100 pitches. Need to start saving his arm at least a little bit for the play-in game.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Great game by Arrieta. Cy Young his ass, please.

Illinois also easily handling Kent State. No surprise even for our shipwreck of an organization.

Also, sat next to a group of very depressed Stanford fans at a restaurant in Evanston for a late lunch. Impressive start to the season by Northwestern.

 

[HeisenBaez]

Awesome start by Jake. KB continues to be a marvel, must better defensively then scouts gave him credit. To see him play LF all game and then finish the game @3rd and make a play to eliminate the possibility of being "Goldschmidt'd" was impressive.

I hope WS fans enjoy Mark Reynolds, I mean RH Adam Dunn, no I mean Mike Olt.

Penn State beat by Temple. Niiiiiiiiice

 

[ManChild20]

My Irish looked damn good last night. Texas looked pretty pitiful, however.

 

[OhCaptainMyCaptain]

Kris Bryant with a projected 495 ft homerun today.

 

[OhCaptainMyCaptain]

And Cubs get the sweep! Huge road trip coming up.

 

[ObeyPerry]

Fear montero.

 

[OhCaptainMyCaptain]

Purdont on the verge of losing to Marshall. Not a big upset or anything, but that speaks volumes as to how bad Purdue really is. Marshall safety has 17 tackles and two pick 6s. Not a terrible game.

Purdue was a 7.5 point underdog. It went like experts expected. Appleby is horrible.

Was with my folks today at the Gurnee Bakers Square and the game was on, after i told my Pop the Cubs very well "could" make the post season.....he looked at me like "are you serious!".

 

[Bubba88]

sounds good. Was able to finally watch a Baseball game. Got the Basics but it still Needs time

 

[HeisenBaez]

He has sucked since becoming a Cubs, but not today. What.A.Performance by Dan Haren today. Keep it going, Cubs.

 

[hawksrule]

Ohio St. losing at the half.

 

[OhCaptainMyCaptain]

A great performance all around from the Cubs today

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Tentative 2016 MLB schedules are out.

Cubs start on the road in Anaheim and Arizona, home opener is Monday, April 11th vs the Reds.

Sox start on the road in Oakland, home opener is on Friday, April 8th vs the Indians.

 

[Illinihockey]

Be shocked if the Cubs get the game in today. Hope they just push it out until the end of the season if needed and don't try to squeeze it in on the 14th

I was at the rain delayed game on june 28th and went away amazed at the busch stadium drainage system so I could still see them getting this in.

 

[OhCaptainMyCaptain]

Do not have a good feeling about the Cubs game this evening.

 

[HawksBeerFan]

Loving this series thus far

 

[TorMenT]

Cubs really taking it to St. Louis this series. And it was with Haren pitching against Lynn and Hammel against Wacha (only 3rd inning so far, but Cubs up 6-0). Crazy what this team is capable of.

 

[hisgirlfriday]

So who does Schwarber displace from the lineup? This club is rolling right now.

 

[zac]

Cubs better not **** this up.
