5/15 Cubs (Zambrano) at Mets (Maine) 6pm CSN+

[C.C.]

Z still looks like crap. We need to score more. A lot more.

[Allroy]

Good try Shawn. Sit down.

[cjbucks]

Is it just me or have we thrown out more guys at home this year already than in like the last 2 years?

[texascub]

We're still winning! Hallelujah this is a god somewhere.

[Productive Outs]

nice throw.

[killthegoat06]

Yay soriano is good for something.

[AlwaysaCub]

Zambrano just reverted to suck edition after that double. He was at 94 and is now at 89.

 

Those guns are off tonight. It said Main was pitching high 80's.

 

Well, it was that gun that had him at 94. And now it has him at 89.

[C.C.]

I'm not seeing a problem in Z's mechanics. Maybe someone can elaborate on why they think he's hurt.

 

Lo Duca singles to left and Sorino cuts down Green at home! Perfect throw by Alf and terrific block at the plate by Barrett. Inning over still 3-0 Cubs.

 

Looks to me he's short arming it. And his arm slot is moving quite a bit.

[Rob]

Looks like Yost just got tossed from the Brewers game. Jenkins might have too.

Actually, Z has tweaked his mechanics slightly for this game.

Getting rid of Pee-Air always helps.

[C.C.]

Did you Z at home plate on the Sori throw? Classic!

[killthegoat06]

Actually, Z has tweaked his mechanics slightly for this game.

 

WHy did he change his mechanics coming into the season?

[Soriano12]

wow, I can't believe he got to that.

I'll keep looking, but I think he's been at least fairly consistent with his arm slot.

 

Great running catch by Beltran in center on an almost sure double by Aramis. One down.

[C.C.]

Maine is not fooling anyone today.

[dew1679666265]

Ward with a single to left center. Runner on with one out for Barrett.

[C.C.]

Barrett doubled. Maine is getting lit up! Gotta score here.

[Mark_R]

First pitch swinging baby!

[dew1679666265]

Barrett nearly drives one out to right. Off the wall just over the 371 sign in right, Barrett to second, Ward to third with just one out.

 

Announcers making fun of Ward's lack of speed.

[killthegoat06]

Barrett doubled. Maine is getting lit up! Gotta score here.

 

We might win. :shock:

[Soriano12]

Maine = Fool's gold.

[CubmanPi]

BAREBARE!! Three hard hit balls already this inning. Met's should have called up a soft-tossing lefty for the game, because people who tear up the rest of the league area apparently fair game against this offense.

[C.C.]

OUR OFFENSE SUCKS!

[otis89]

The Cubs are getting hits by swinging at the first pitch. Could Maine be tipping his pitches? I don't get the game on TV, so this is pure speculation.
