The Cubs have the best record in the National League one week into August, and they’ve done that largely without Yu Darvish, Kris Bryant, and Brandon Morrow.
The best record. In August. Without the top player from each of the lineup, rotation, and bullpen for prolonged stretches of time. Just reminding you of that.
The next time I make light of someone's injury will be the first time. I should have said how unfortunate you and Ellsbury's injuries are. It came out in a clumsy way. If you took it the wrong way, I apologize and look forward to speaking with you personally. https://t.co/g4a0P0UYmh

If any of you dweebs leave Wrigley Field with *these* Cubs down two runs in the 8th inning, you're membership at @BleacherNation will be revoked.
That's right, we'll switch to a subscription model just for you, and then kick you off it. https://t.co/UtbVNuMZqR
