I heard the stat the other day...

He doesn’t have an error this year.

(HOW?!)

If misjudging the wall was an error it sure wouldnt be the case.

Remember that unnecessary dive for a ball he had no chance to catch last series at Miller Park?

The Cubs wouldnt want that... it would slow down the game's tempo.

Bucknor would have to tell him about 10 times to re-tuck in his shirt……

So I had free tickets offered to me by my dad for Skybox on Sheffield tonight...

But since I feel like death (came down w/ the flu this morn) I had to turn them down. How ironic that I’m feeling much better right now watching the game on tV.
