No real shock there. Mildly surprised about Baez but that's it.

And there it is...

I've seen a lot of things in my day, but that....is....AWESOME!!!

Don't get me wrong, I get why wrigley is getting a facelift beyond construction/safety upgrades but I'll take a non jumbo tron wrigley over jumbo tron everyday of the week.

I've got a crazy idea. How about you actually attend a game before making a blanket statement like that?

My bad. Didn't know I was not allowed opinions on a message board.

Try making an INFORMED opinion. That's all I'm saying.

i get what you are saying about the aesthetics of the jumbotron, but it does suck not to see replays and the like at the game.

LoL ok...I'll try to get more informed about it.

HAPPY OPENING DAY!!!!!!!!!!!

Let's do this ****.

**** THE CARDINALS!!!!!!

Let's go Cardinals! Out to an early lead.

woooo dexter fowler!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hate this "K Zone". Just more crap on the TV.

I did like the dot showing the pitch that bounced a few feet in front of the plate

Well, so far the new Cubs look a lot like the Cubs of the last 10+ years.

Rough start. Lester not sharp. Castro looks terrible in the field so far. Stranding way too many runners in scoring position.

Not a good first outing for Lester. Defense definitely not in mid-season form.

Coke looked good. Need to get the offense going. Only down 3.

This is the Cubs year according to Back to the Future pt. 2! Now I wonder who they are going to get to play the part of Miami?

Clinical.

This is a Cubs thread. Take your Cardinals **** elsewhere.

Haterz gonna hate. Get that Blackhawk mess out of the hockey threads.

Those are hockey threads, not anything team specific. In fact, I ****ing started that thread.

And haterz, really? What grade are you in?

11th grade. And it's only one game!

I can imagine Maddon didn't like what he saw in the field last night. Between the lack of communication amongst infielders and outfielders and whatever the hell Soler was doing, need to fix that crap soon.

The good news is most fans didn't get to see the games as they waited over three innings to use the bathroom.

They really should have just turned the old place into a park and shrine and built a brand new stadium.

Soler looked like he'd never played outfield in his life. Will Ferrell played a better outfield during his spring training charity effort.

It was ridiculous to watch that MLB commercial where they talked about how "these are the best X number of baseball players in the world" and then you cut back to the Cubs being an embarrassment to the game and kicking the ball all over the world. I swear Castro doesn't practice between the last pitch of the season and spring training.

Also, that lineup is a group that could score 0-1 runs against guys that aren't even Wainwright.

Chicago weather. Now what am I supposed to watch tonight?

Hee Haw like the rest of the ****ing hillbilly Cardinal fans.

I don't know if you're being serious or not. Either way, you've come across as a real dick. I'll leave you and your merry band of cubbies to continue your 5 year old circle-jerk here.

Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

Best thing that can happen are rainouts since those are games Kris Bryant will play in down the road.

Don't worry, I won't. Besides, I'll probably have yet another Central Division crown and deep playoff run to console me.
