I’ll admit that I’m a bit distracted today for personal reasons. I can’t – and don’t really want to, anyway – take time away from here, because doing the work of BN provides a kind of steadying, comforting presence. So, apologies for any lapses you notice, and thanks for your continued support and for reading our stuff.
Man, how perception is reality, My timeline filled with Yu criticism. He just threw the same game as Lester from 2 nights ago. 4 runs in 6 innings. AT COORS FIELD. Ok, he blew a 4-0 lead. Lester had the Cubs down 4-0 before they batted. Same diff. Do the other 5 shutout count?

The Cubs are the only team in baseball to twice hit 3 home runs in an inning this season and lose both games.

After @cubs shared the video of Javy’s first career hit/HR (8/5/14), thought it might be fun to compare it to his most recent home run (6/7/19) since they were both oppo shots. pic.twitter.com/CvfioDlYYN

Ump Show. @MLB, Clean it up. Joe prepares harder than anyone, and you just took away his start day. No accountability. The pen is messed up for the series now. Guys will get sent down because they will have to eat these innings. Unbelievable.
