As a fan it isn’t unreasonable to be upset at any point – we have the right to show disappointment with our team – but we must remain realistic.
The Cubs already improved upon their 2014 success – or lack thereof – when trailing entering the ninth: 0-79 last season. The 2015 Cubs have two walk-off wins. It was June 6 – game 58 – before the Cubs recorded their second walk-off victory of 2014. I’ll paraphrase Maddon after last night’s game: nothing to be disappointed about this April.

Tough day for Cubs but looking fwd to more from this writer (and hopefully less from Gerrit Cole)…. Great to see the talent being attracted to this site.
