At least Cal is crushing Hawaii. New QB looks good (vs a shitty defense though)

So every winning team in the NL won today....except the stupid Cubs

Cards, Mets, Nats, Pirates, Marlins, Dodgers, Giants all won

Is my internet on a delay??

And the Chubbs tied it off Jansen! (my fantasy closer, damn it)

 

[calsnowskier]

Yes.

Must be a hell of a game. Do the dogs win it in the bottom of the ninth, or later in extras? My internet is just now telling me that the Cubs have tied it up in the top of the ninth...

 

[calsnowskier]

Good ol' left shark...

 

[msgkings322]

Holy shit Cubs tied it in the 9th. My jinx powers are strong lately, I need to be very careful LOL

 

[SFGRTB]

KRIS BRYANT! YEEEEAHH BOI!

Good ol' left shark...

Not sure why I haven't used this sooner.

 

[calsnowskier]

6-4 Chubs, bitches!!

 

[msgkings322]

Holy shit I am loving the Cubs making me (and the Dodgers) their bitches tonight!

If the Cubs hang on, the Dogs are gonna feel shitty like we did a week ago

Question - how many fantasy teams do you have? I went a little overboard this year and created 5, after not playing fantasy for about 6 years.

 

[msgkings322]

Now of course, a buzzkill as I remember that 'oh yeah the Cubs are crazy good right now'

I have 3 this year. 2 serious ones (money leagues), and 1 random league where I wanted to try out a wacky strategy. I usually average around 3.5 per year.

Any of y'all seeing what this rookie catcher on the Yankees is doing? Dayum.

Yeah they look utterly unstoppable.

I don't hate the Yankees like many other people do, and I like it when teams build through the system, so I'm enjoying watching them right now. Of course in a few years they'll have all these great young players then outspend everyone in free-agency and piss everybody off again.
