It's time to sell. Bellinger, Happ, Nico, anyone else. This team sucks. I wanna see a kid in every position. Fire Jed and dismantle the team.
 
Went to the Ryan Sandberg statue dedication and game today. Game was a disappointment with a few high points, but the statue dedication was great. All the legends were there (Billy, Fergie, Sutcliffe, Dawson and a lot of the late 80s guys). Shawon Dunston, Dave Owen, and Bob Costas all gave great speeches before, and the statue looks great. Ryno definitely had some input into the design of the statue, as he wanted a defensive position with the pullover jersey, and the flip up sunglasses. Bill Murray was there too, and Ryno looked and sounded good. All the players and stadium employees came and watched from above. Very cool.

And then the team lost again. We suck.

I knew it was going to be rough when Assad went to a full count with basically every batter in the first inning. And other than Morel's 2-run homer, offense was weak as hell. Couldn't have been better weather though, and was a good vibe in general. First game I've been to this year and it always feels good to be in at Wrigley.
 
The way things are going right now, I'll be surprised if some folks don't start losin their jobs. :{
 


We still suck, but big day from Happ today.

3-run homer from both sides of the plate + a double and a single.

Need to get it goin or we might be sellers at the deadline.
