Could MLB put an end to these four game series? They are obviously 🙄 about making money because unless you’re just about the worse baseball team in the world you should always split 2-2. Let’s play more double headers on some sunny 😎 Sunday’s. As chaotic as Wrigleyville is on those days for one game even it’d be a must watch  family friendly and festive. Imagine how many ticket promotions you could have for those days! It makes the season seem longer than it is and doesn’t count as a series win with a four game series. The most you can expect is a bench clearing brawl after        a big home run.
Maybe panic is a strong word with still more than half a season left to go but looking at other divisions the leaders have commanding leads on the second place team and I believe that if the playoffs were to start today again Cub fans would have to take their chill 💊 because the Cubs while they would be tough out they’d be an early out. It’s clear they have nothing to trade with unless they decide Addison Russel or David Bote is expendable, I’d say more the former than the latter because anyone worth trading is already on the field.

Chicago baseball ⚾️ is a mess right now where it seems the White Sox (even though their Sox are black) are getting better which might be a mirage because of how bad their division is and no matter how good Minnesota finishes they will have to face the Yankees who are dominating (with a former Cub prospect killing it for them). The brand of baseball play right now suit them just fine and they maybe the next team the Dodgers lose to in the World Series but I’d rather be the Dodgers right now than the

Now Cub fans it’s time to panic. They are a dumpster fire right now and it’s not because Ben Zobrist is awol. It is because the boy genius is no longer a boy like in Boston and dare I say no longer a genius. And we’re worried about Maddon being gone after this season. If I was him I’d be looking to get the fuck out of Wrigleyville while I’m still known as a winner. In the past there were managers who would not manage rookies. Maddon can manage a last place team and make them tolerable. When you have a team that is expected to compete and you half ass the lineup don’t be surprised when people hold their nose whenever the team plays. I believe they are giving their best but Christ isn’t there a “Building A Bullpen for Dummies” out there?

The Golden State warriors for once are not the toast of basketball and it's been so quiet since the playoffs ended. Had they won that wouldn't be the case. Hopefully now this nonsense of comparison to the 90s Bulls will end. The Warriors will be remembered as one of the best teams in history and deservedly so but sports should have some balance to it or at least make it compelling. I know this is hipocriticle being that the Bulls won 6 in a dominant way but we needed a Jordan and a Pippen to accomplish what we did. And I seriously doubt the other teams had a gag reflex whenthe Bulls were mentioned. I have to say I am looking forward to Golden States return to mediocrity soon. And enjoying the continued silence.

If you're a Cub fan freaking out right now. Take a breath. The Central is a slog and it get ugly. We've been in first place for a while. Let someone else get a whiff of rarefied air for a while.

Apparently the Cubs have not learned not to bat Schwarber at lead off. This is not video game baseball where you can edit your hitters to super numbers. They still have a crappy bullpen no matter how many pitchers you're supposedly looking at. This division is not as good as people were saying prior to the start of the season because they are somehow still in first place. It's a dumpster fire right now and the Dodgers are running away with the west. Another world series appearance for them even though the Cubs are a better team. Maybe it would be better if the whole front office should go. I shouldn't be upset about this too much because no Cub games will be on television unless you sign up for their ridiculous channel. I think my allegiance is about to come to an end. Time to find me a minor league team to follow.
