Just to bring us up to speed:

June 22nd (2)
June 22nd (3)
June 24th (4)
June 24th (5)

Current line in Iowa:

.238/.333/.952(!)/1.286

Yes, that SLG is higher than anybody else's OPS.  Christ on a bike.  I expect Eli's having sleepless nights about the batting average, though.

EDIT: An intrusive apostrophe?  *facepalm*

Batting Average? pshaw

You guys think about me way too much.

Is it my fault you're the Desipio Chicken Licken?  Now, whenever I see one of the Cubs' prospects doing sub-optimally, I get a vivid mental picture of you weeping into your cornflakes as you read the boxscore.  I just worry, Eli, is all.

I can't tell if this is a typo or some European weirdness.

Henny Penny, more commonly known as Chicken Little and sometimes as Chicken Licken, is a folk tale with a moral in the form of a cumulative tale about a chicken who believes the world is coming to an end.

Thanks, man! I usually am having a nice day.

Actually, when I do think about the Cubs, I'm pretty happy. I wish they were better this year at the big-league level, but the key young guys are playing well. And it sounds like they're planning to add some veterans in the offseason to hopefully push toward competing next year.

Sure, things could be better but they could also be much, much worse. Apologies if that all doesn't fit neatly into my prescribed meme.

Nor does it fit into the tone of your posts usually. Though, I think we're all a little more positive of late, seeing Castro and Rizzo sustain their upswing, the bullpen materialize and knowing that Snork will soon be out of our lives forever. Maybe that last part is just me and a couple other people but I'm happy. Cubs baseball, you guys.

Nor does it fit into the tone of your posts usually for a few months this winter when your hope seemed to hit its nadir.

All it takes to meme is one bad day.
