Chris Sale just hit 100mph for the first time in 8 years

Posted by cubsfan5150 on 8/27/26 at 9:08 pm

At the age of 37

Somehow his average 4 seam fb is up nearly 1.5 mph over the past two seasons.

Is it Sale or the guns that are juiced?

I was just at the Field Museum in Chicago, and only saw like two black families. We stayed in the financial district and saw almost no black people. No way Chicago's black population is 30%.

You should get out more. I was all over Paris. It's oddly small.

Paris and London are both at 15%, and that's probably a pretty conservative number.

No fricking way. I’ve been to both within the last couple of years and unless they’re all hiding, it’s nowhere near 15%.

As someone that has only experienced humid heat, can anyone describe “dry heat?”

You know those random fall days you get in the south, when the wind shifts to coming from the north and although the temp is still 85-90+ but the breeze is nice and it feels cool outside... that's what dry heat feels like in nice areas

Dry heat in places like Phx is different. Take a hair dryer and blow it in your face until you sweat.

How does that compare to the regular population? What about other professions like military, other sports, etc.

This guy’s backstory is probably interesting. If he’s still a major after 17 years, he’s been creating headaches for quite some time. His discharge without a retirement was probably already pending and this is a delusional attempt to audition for his next adventure.

That was my guess after the first stunt

Nailed it and it’s gross. The cubs radio broadcast is basically one HUGE advertisement with some baseball sprinkled in.

This foul ball brought to you by….

If there was as streaker, I’m sure they’d have an advertisement for it.
