cubs win in 13! walk-off! blew it in the 9th but rizzo came up in a big way today. he's starting to get into a groove i'd say

hammel pitched great too, 14 scoreless innings

4th win in a row :cheesygrin:

and our recent success has pulled us out of the basement of the league, there are two teams with worse winning percentages than us now (rays and diamondbacks)

Is that a good thing? Wouldn't the #1 pick be better then the #5 pick? Unless you think this team is capable of making a playoff run wouldn't the #1 draft pick be the best outcome for the season?

i have no idea, all i know is that i like it when the cubs win so i am going to enjoy this while it lasts

even after this streak we're still 9 games under .500 and a fire sale is looming, so there is plenty of season left for us to lose - just let me have this now

I'm simply rooting for the Cubs to do well because I want to see improvement. Regardless of how much we win the rest of the season, we're definitely getting a high draft pick. There is very good talent in the top 10 even if you don't get your top 2 or 3 rated players.

GOING FOR SIX!
