That axe handle bat seems to be the good luck charm for KB.

Yep..Great American Ballpark might be a feasting ground this week (tho usually not until warmer)

Reds pitching has been REALLY good lately...me thinks this series will be very close. Also Jake will be on the bump Monday night in his first start at Wrigley since going to Philly. He faces Darvish. (well, for 3 innings at least)

I’m bummed. I would love to see Jakey pitch again. I have tickets for Wednesday instead.

Well, the Zobrist rumors are true. His wife filed for divorce on 5/13. Sucks


Also, Addie’s ex released this:

Looks like Julianna has been a bad girl.

Bummer about Zobie . He filed for separation in TN accusing Julianna of "inappropriate marital conduct which render further cohabitation impossible". That seems a little skanky considering her music.

TN law will at least give better leverage to Zo on custody and financial decisions. I just hope he does find his way back to the Cubs. He is invaluable honestly, is all he brings, but I can also see him choosing to walk away from baseball altogether as well to be available for his kids at all times.. just very, very sad.

Tonight’s loss stinks. At least the Cards lost too.

Very.
I've talked to several people who have met him or are from his home town or knew him some other way...
ALL of them say what a nice guy he is.
Not to mention how he hung out with the local kids and rode his bike to the park.
Class act IMHO

I hope he doesn’t walk away! I’d love to give him a Grandpa Rossy full year sendoff. He needs some Cubbie Fan love (no, not that way!).

Such a sad story. Wishing Zo all the best. I hope we see him back as well!

Still have 3 less in the loss column, hope the bats heat up, quick!

I was hopeful he stayed on in some capacity..but I really doubt he will be happy with anything that has him traveling a lot. Pretty sure the singing/ career his wife has requires travel & I see Ben as wanting to be as solid a parent for his kids as possible....his wife had been posting on her Instagram about how much she loves NY and wants to be there. I just don’t see Ben wanting to be that far from those kids or putting them in a position to travel even more as they get older with school.looks like his filing is technically for separation, and hers for divorce at this time

Exciting home run derby last night.
