Bobby Wilson grand slam. At least someone knows how to hit with men on base.

Cubs sweep the Nats. Finish 7-0 on their homestand. Baez walk-off HR.

An amazing 7.5 game lead in the NL Cent in the first week of May.

And, yet, this team really hasnt started to hit for average, as I think they can..........

Harper says the Cubs aren't hot right now ... they're just that good.

[zenmaster]

Bryce Harper went 0-0 with 6 BB in 13 innings today. Has 24 walks and 25 k this season. 

[Angels_Make_Me_Drink]

This Cubs' team is phenomenal. I hope they stay healthy because they are very fun to watch. 

[ettin]

As much as I'd like to see a Joe Maddon team make it, it is a double edged sword because once those fans win a new championship they are going to be UN-BEAR-ABLE!

[Homebrewer]

Cubs sweeping PIT and WAS back to back is pretty impressive.

[Troll Daddy]

If the Cubs got sweeped in the first round ..: I would be ok with that.

That was before yesterday.  He has 30 walks and 25 k's

I was reading the captions on PTI today at the gym and they were debating on whether or not this will be the way teams start pitching Harper until someone else in that lineup can produce outside of Murphy. 

Please, no...teams will start doing this to Trout and Pujols sure as shit isn't going to pick him up. 

[Chuck]

LOL.

Strasburg signs a fat new contract and gives up 4 early runs against the struggling Tigers.

[Chuck]

Meanwhile KC Royals starter Chris Young gave up 5 home runs in 2 2/3 innings.

Fixed for the Maddon Swingers. 

[CanadianHalo]

JBJ going off tonight 3/4 and 6 RBI's, has his average up to .304 now. I know there was a few of us that were hoping the Angels would try and acquire him last season. He has my fantasy week off to a good start!

Too much for a guy who cannot stay healthy.

he's gonna get suspended for that.  Tossed from the game from the dugout for arguing a pitch on another player that k zone actually had as a strike.  Then the next guy hits a walk off so he's out there celebrating and instead of just running out to be with his team, he detours to the ump and tells him to go F himself.  The guy has a real knack for putting a target on his own back.  

[ScottT]

He should.  That was a jackass move after the game. 

Is he even supposed to be on the field after getting tossed?  

[Angels_Make_Me_Drink]

But hey, he's making baseball fun again.

I'm pretty sure Trout already did that though, you doucher.

That was awesome

[m0nkey]

Don't know why he got tossed in the first place but LOL that was funny

[Angel Oracle]

That was a clown act, bro!

[ScottT]

His manager didn't seem surprised. Harper acted like it, but Bryce is a better ballplayer than actor, to say the least. 

He's a fucking tool. 

[Troll Daddy]

He may be just the type of tool the Angels need. I'm frickin tired of nice baseball!
