Feature time this week on CFMB Challenge, as nickmiles coming out of nowhere to throw out a challenge to veteran Ballpark Frank.
Ballpark's patented "You Hate To See It" finisher might not be enough to put away this youngster, looks to be in tremendous shape.
Let's go up to ringside.

They're good enough to get everyone hyped only for the fanbase to have the rug pulled out from under them in classic style.


Glad Cubs fans are only mildly disappointed because they expected their team to suck this year. Imagine the horror next season when there are real expectations and they fail again :D

This might be my favorite baseball thread of the year. Great work, all!

Good to see that BigFan still knows how to drunk dial the board when the need arises.

It's the most fun team Denis has ever seen. There's just no quit in them.

Cubs got more fight than the bitchass OP who decided to delete his own post.

if you expected this team to be above .500 this year, you were kidding yourself. They actually overachieved. Now they've got to make the right moves for next year but they should have higher expectations for next season. That the division is so bad shouldn't matter for next year.

They played completely over their heads for about 2 months. It happens.

Hell, I knew the 93 win Sox team was a fucking mirage. Anybody could see it.

They’re going to let their best player walk so they’re starting in a hole unless hyphen boy can step it up.

They are landing right where I expected them to land 83-84 wins, and probably eliminated in the last week.

The sequencing is frustrating, because they have been very streaky and hit the bad streak the second half of September. Ultimately, they won some July and August series which they shouldn't have, and the adrenaline wore off while the injuries kicked in and they lost some September series they should have won.

Now they have to invest this off-season to keep up with the Reds, or else they are going to be a third place team next season.

The Reds third highest paid player this year was Ken Griffey Jr. I don't think they will have any issues outspending them.

True, but with Votto's contract gone they have a hell of a mostly pre-arb infield with Encarnacion-Strand, de la Cruz, McClain, and India. Figure that's going to be at least $35M cheaper than the Cubs 2024 starting infield.

I will take the deletion as a tacit admission that nickmiles is, indeed, BigFan.

Possibly. It’s unclear at this point.
