#Cubs #ChicagoCubs - Спорт
Today was my 31st birthday. I got to have dinner with my family, got to see my 5 year old niece, and got to watch the Chicago Cubs have a beautiful game against one of the best teams in baseball. Couldn’t have asked for more.
Happy birthday man go Cubs
Happy bday!!!
Happy birthday!
@@samolbur8893 Thank you! I appreciate all of you.
I wish Sam would record himself watching the games and post moments like when Happ drilled that 2-strike dinger. I can only imagine he was leaping off the couch like a madman. 😂
that 100 mph called 3rd strike from Bigge gave me a good feeling.. Have we finally found our closer?
He's seemingly got a solid 90 slider and a good looking curve. Let's hope he's just getting started!
My favorite strike 3 of the year tbh so far 😂
I totally understand anyone who is frustrated with this team. Being in last place gives you every right to feel that way. But I’d personally like to thank the few ppl that have remained positive and haven’t given up on this team. That positive energy goes a long way and helps out more than know. Blessings!
Happ on pace to have a 100 RBI season, we still need Swanson and Morel to hit and Belli to pick it up also. Still long way to go but we'll see what happens on the rest of this trip
I’ll tell you what’s going to happen your gonna loose next 2 vs Baltimore then get your ass handed to you by the Redbirds
Happ will finish 20-25 homers, 80-85 rbi, 150-175 strikeouts, and a .255-.265 average. That's just Happ.
Morel is awful. How can your dh be below .200? Swanson will have career lows across the board and 175-185 strikeouts. At the end of last year it seemed like Swanson was a self-appointed consultant for building the team. Not so much this year. Can he advise on how to dump the last 5 years of an inflated contract for a middle infielder?
Sam appreciate the double YOU...we all needed this the a$% whipping and the YOU enjoyed them both...Go Cubs!
Great Solo today, See it so much easier to talk about the Cubs when their winning, you were the closer today.
Matt had to miss covering this game!! OUCHIE!!! Go Cubs Go!
I was at the game last night with my brother who lives outside of Baltimore & great to see the bats come alive. We will be there tonight & tomorrow night-Go Cubs Go
Sam!!!! Huah! for the strikeout!!! My favorite impression! Go Cubs Go!!!!
Sam we love your show in Oklahoma! I ran into David Ross last week in Colorado and shared we all owe him aplology. Keep up the great work and the honest opinions.
haha thank you!!
I would love to see the Phillies take Bellinger off our hands. Call up Cassie put him in right field, PCA in center, Happ in left, Suzuski DH, and Morel to Iowa.
Great take on Morel v Mastrobuoni.
Sam you explained it well with belli
Great solo broadcast
Tyson Miller has been a rock. Speaking of castaways, I've also liked what I've seen so far from Jorge Lopez. At least we know he'll be entertaining if he has a bad outing.
it might be possible Shaw comes up after the trade deadline break and morel goes to Des Moines
Depends who the Cubs deal. If they trade Hoerner(for hopefully an elite Catcher- mariners or Red Sox, please!).
That was the first game I watched all year where I didn’t sweat once
Love Mastro at third base. Watched the highlight reel over and over. Such a pleasure to watch.
He gets the job done sometimes, but he's nowhere near a solution. A normal-sized, athletic 3B doesn't even need to dive for that turn-two...they just run through it towards 2B.
Mastro at 3rd makes that infield pretty darned good. His bat might come around with more AB's.
@@edwardwilliams3185 the bat...that experiment was tried. It's not going to take. He's a minor leaguer at best, unfortunately.
Would love to be wrong...but I won't be in this case. You can't win games giving up 2 batting spots with low average and zero pop(Mastro and Catcher), with a lineup that doesn't have any stars to pick up the slack.
@@TheLearningCatalystCoach he went 2-3 tonight and walked twice.
I don’t know why CC insisted on continuing to play Morel at 3rd even when he was stinking and you could see he’s not really suited for that position. It was so refreshing to see Miles M move into 3rd and look comfortable there.
I think Bellinger's power is sapped from the ribs thing, hes probably just been low key in pain for a while. The crack was like right up under the armpit right? Yea I could imagine how that subconsciously hurts his power.
EDIT:
I think the Cubs should seriously consider paying all of Bellinger's contract for the remainder of the season to get a better prospect.
This win would go good with some ‘ol-burgers
For real! Let's let the young guys play! What's the worst that can happen...we loose?😅
Go Cubs
I’m glad it turned out like it did in the 4th inning, but that was a really poor decision on the Orioles part for pitching to Happ, with 1st base open, 2 outs, and Christopher I should be in Iowa AAA ball Morel coming up. No way do I pitch to Happ in that situation, you’re right Sam that was the ball game.
Busch 4-6 with a homer and 27 straight on base games....and his name is not mentioned below in comments. Amazing.
Timely hitting? You see how many men LOB? Seiya taking pitches right down the middle again. It's been fun.
If CC do a Brewers post ASG, they just might get to the dance. 🙏
You’re just like me… it’s a dumpster fire and then after 4-5 dubs and seeing some improvements im already excited again. Long road
Nah, I just have a daily show to do and I’m not going to be miserable every game after a nice win. Long term view hasn’t changed at all but we all deserve to be happy after a nice win
Let's just win and see where this goes, one game at a time.
Because of that mindset of trading for prospects is why we are called Lovable Loosers. I am starting to think that the main team is AAA Iowa for the fandom. Its all over again. Sam you pretty sure know that no matter how many big contracts you see get rid of, it will not translate Hoyer paing for a bigger star next season. That ain’t gonna happen, mostly now after the Swnason fiasco. Lets keep feeding those minor league teams, like the Expos did once and the Marlins have always done.
Taillon & Bigge 👏🏻 Happ & Busch 👏🏻 Suzuki 👏🏻 needs to step it up but has professional at bats majority of the time.
Morel & Swanson are lost. On a milk carton. Especially with Morel. Morel looks horrible. He looks worse than he did when they sent him to AAA this last time. After the break, I fully expect Morel to be sent down to AAA, regardless of any prospects up or not. I haven’t seen uglier swords swings from Morel. Check swings, check? Or no. Half swings on the other side with Swanson. *GOOD GOD* I realize Swanson wasn’t a banger before but holy hell. I expected 20-25 homers a bunch of doubles and a GG.
Morel was getting clowned by the Baltimore broadcast
I'd love to say I never gave up on this team but I cannot. That would be false and I'm trying to be more honest. I have hope again, but hope, though it may be what rebellions are built on, is fragile. This team needs to slog back up to .500 and then do some yeoman's work to solidify a decent season. The good news is that surviving bad times definitely makes a team more resilient
There’s is not enough time. We have 70 games left and we have to win 42 of those games just to have a slight chance.
The Cubs proved to themselves how much easier it is to win when playing while ahead. And you have to hit to get runs. If they quit taking strike one down the middle and a called strike 3? They have a shot. It is also easier to pitch and play defense when up 7-2 as opposed to down 3 to 2 in the 8th which is the case alot. Be aggressive and stop standing there with your bat on your shoulder. Suzuki, Swanson, Wisdom, etc. Happ is having success because he is swinging at inside pitches on the black and hitting bullets down the line or out a here. Earlier he was taking strike 3. He has learned that umps love to call you out on strike 3. The Cubs need to learn that lesson too otherwise it will be suck ville.
"Anything, literally."
What do you know. When you actually get hits with 2 strikes and risp you actually win games. What a novel concept.
We need a streak Sam
What about Tauchman. He was a God-send before
Since our bench guys have been paying more..Were 4 and 1 with them..Having Mastro and Bote play 3rd is a big improvement over Morel..Also Nido is a big improvement over Amaya..One guy matters no matter what some folks think..Look at all out one run losses i believe it's over 20 games lost by one run..If Counsell keeps playing the bench we just may make the playoffs..IF NOT..we won't. Quit denying the FACTS folks..4 and 1 is a fact..Morel and Swanson are bad is a fact. Orioles are a very good team..is a fact..Quit with making excuses for the Cubs winning.
👏🏾👏🏾👌🏾
Seems like they are waking up, although I won’t be convinced unless they win this series and the next one.
trade happ and taillon while their value is extremely high.. you have cassie and horton ready to replace them. never play morel again at 3b
Thank you trade happ , belli and tallion now while there hot the cubs aren't going anywhere stop with maybe they can get back in 😂
@@liveanddieinchicagoliveand7074 cubs need a superstar free up all that money and be aggressive next off season
W
Biggie hung two sliders last night but because he was throwing so hard he got away with it.
Happ does nothing until this team is in the dumps. He's been great for weeks, the team has been terrible for 2 months. It's fake. Hopefully the Cubs don't fall for it again.
Right on. Happ rarely hits in the clutch. His m.o. , runners in scoring position, strike out or double play. Two outs nobody on, base hit. Hopefully somebody makes an offer that Jed can’t refuse and he’s gone.
Agree...and history repeats itself year after year. Sell high...get a good prospect pitcher or catcher for him.
Hopefully the Orioles brass liked J-Mos audition for the trade deadline ❤.
To turn guys into great bullpen arms, you need good coaching. Simple said, the Cubs don’t have it.
I'd love to know what the internal discussions are involving Morel. Do they still actually think this guy is going to be part of their next core group? He seems completely lost up there this whole season with no signs of a turnaround. I don't think going back down to the minors and dominating again would do any good. If he struggles the rest of the season, I would hope they move on from him and give others a chance. What a waste.
👍👍👍👍
Happ and Taillon making a case to be traded. If Bellinger can heat up then that would be great too.
They're not trading Happ😂. They have to go into next year with at least one MLB hitter.....
I'm confused. Why would you get rid of a starter pitcher who is pitching well just to lighten your payroll. To me getting rid of Taillon puts us in a multi year rebuild, which we should know by now is not an easy task. A pitcher that stays healthy and makes quality starts is worth some money. Who costs more Taillon or Jordan Montgomery which everyone seemed to want.this off season. Trade Bellinger, keep Taillon.
👍
What a good play from that third baseman for the Cubs(not Morel) saved a big inning from Baltimore.
Mastrobater
@@Tgrirch yea he bated that ball and got a double play
@@NOBlinders i gotta give him credit on defense. Its just better for the eyes watching him play 3rd base after watching morel all year. However he also had 2 scrappy hits in the game
@@Tgrirch He will never be a power hitter but most he can hope for is timely hits.
Anything literally
Anything

Trade what you can.
The bullpen has turned the corner and improved
Cubs still need to sell. They have talent MLB ready to replace.
The goal should be to get their talent adjusting to MLB pitching.
That helps them open up payroll for next year.
Happ they should retain unless a overpay happens in a return and Happ signs it off. Then go for it.
The hardest sale is Taillon. The staff has been beat up and someone will have to pick up the innings. So that deal would not happen until Brown and Assad are in the rotation. Add to it Horton would have to be pitching again.
At that point you have to do that deal to give opertunity
Very Cub to play well and get our hopes up a bit before crushing them again. Anyway, I was thinking the same thing about playing Mastro at third. Morel needs to sit for a bit. He is lost right now.
Hoyer was wrong with Contreras
PCA hits .200 along with Swanson and Morel. Let's get rid of Bellinger. No thanks
Now sweep Orioles!
Bote > Mastro. That is all.
I’m sure we will be singing a different song tomorrow
Trade Bellinger ! He's only out for himself an not a team player, just look at his contract!
Anthony below
Let's stop pretending and get rid of PCA he bearly hits doesn't hit for power and yay PCA is super fast who cares !!!!!!!!!!
Dansby 0-5
at this rate, we may get a nice haul for Taillon, Happ and maybe Hoerner, too. Dansby Heyward still stinks. He got the hat trick today.
Fake cubs fan..get out of here!
Bullshit comment but I do agree Dansby sucks right now
@@EnigmaAbyss if we'd won half of those blown save loses we would be 12+ over .500
