Yu Darvish gets his first W. Yeah, it's a baby step... but bigger things should come.

Schwarber rung up in a most unsatisfying end to a Cubs game.

EEWWWW strep. I still have my tonsils. I had strep once a month for years as a kid. Brutal.
Hamels was great and so were the bats, but this bullpen. Has strep. Or something.
Feel better!

Hamels Handles Brewers. #BreatheOut Cubs Fans.
The last guy Cole Hamels faced was Yasmani Grandal. Hamels had thrown just over 100 pitches, and he was just so... pro. He threw 3 pitches, each out of the zone, trying to get Grandal to fish. Grandal didn't. So it was 3-0 and you could just see Hamels go, "Okay, come and get it." He threw 6 ...

Man, you must not be talking to anyone about the Cubs, Bud.
I can't get 5 feet down the hall at work without someone telling me how bad they're freaking out. I get texts about it all day long.
Maybe "pressure" was the wrong word to use in this post...

Cubs need to take a little pressure off.
When the Cubs screwed the pooch at the end of last year, and we all agreed that yep... wins in April are just as important as the ones in September? That put pressure, kind of an unseen one back then, on not just the players and Joe Maddon and Cubs Management, it also put pressure on you and ...
Yeah it is. But I’m the art guy. DONNA TELL US ABOUT A BAD START THAT ENDED UP A DIVISION CHAMPIONSHIP.

I musta had 5 people come up to me today and... test the waters.
"How you doing? How bad is it?"
I told 'em I already freaked out in the privacy of my own home, but in reality this pressure is off the charts and it DOES take a little time for a team to really play together.
I agree with "we'll be fine".

I heard "effectively wild" from JD I think a couple times.
Brutal.

Of all the shit that happened yesterday, Zagunis might actually be damaged.
See that look when he dropped the fly ball?
Get back on that horse, son.

OMG I KNOW.
I get that people need to rant, but this is... something else.
What we need is a nice 7 innings from Mr. Hendricks, another W and then maybe people can get rational again.

Hi Maris,
And Schwarber hits aNOTHER ONE!
Yeah it's never normal early on, is it?
That Sale game was bizarre.
Anyway, I'm not going all doomsday or anything. This team is plain old good.
I forgot to say anything about Q.
He was amazing...

A Daniel Descalso portrait.
We know him mostly as... a Cardinal. But now Daniel Descalso is going to try to help put up the blue W flags at Wrigley Field as our new lefty bat off the bench taking Tommy La Stella's place. I say "off the bench", but with Happ in Iowa, Addison Russell on his suspension, and Ben Zobrist (hop...

Cubs' Brian Duensing DFA*.
The Cubs DFA'd Brian Duensing yesterday, right on the heels of sending Ian Happ to the minors. Then, Theo said that October really starts in March, just in case you're not getting how important that white flag with the "W" on it will be early this season. But really, there should be an asteri...

HAHAHAHA!
I actually like it, this no nothin' on the hands of a major league pitcher.
It is HORRIBLE when someone gets a blister "issue", but them's the breaks in the bigs.

Darvish Blister Anxiety.
As if we don't have enough to worry about. Yu Darvish pulled himself from his start against the Mariners yesterday because of a blister on his right ring finger. Uhhhh. Nuh NUH NUH NUH NUH NUH NUH. That laser treatment will probably fix it, right? How is it possible that a disease you get fro...
