5/24 Cubs (Marquis) @ Pirates (Dumatrait) 6:05 WGN

Let Kosu hit. Bunt with a weaker hitter, DeRosa next AB.

[Outshined_One]

Bunting Soto over for Blanco is a dumb idea, imo.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

A F-bomb here would be nice.

[CubmanPi]

I'd hit and run here.

That's only if the attempted steal is to third base. But with Soto on the base paths, a straight steal could also be a smart move. Dusty reference.

[BigSlick]

Ok heres a spot where a bunt might not be inadvisable

[haubrich91]

Patience.

 

Let's score now!

[Outshined_One]

NOW would be a decent time to bunt.

[17 Seconds]

NOW you bunt.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Two on.

 

Now, I wouldn't mind bunting with Blanco.

[Yeti]

wooohooo!!! set up for the triple play!

[Little Slide Rooter]

Blanco-bomb!

[TMan92]

Cards up 4-0....Unreal.

[splintersag]

It seems like there are alot more Cubs fans here. I mean, I know it's Wrigley east, but seriously.

 

I bet many people are home watching the Pens and NHL.

[BigSlick]

No reason to bunt if the guy can't hit the strike zone.

[E.J.]

Lou is dumber that rocks. Way to take Lee out of the game for freaking Blanco. Why not just use Z as a pinch hitter? He's a better hitter than Blanco anyway. Dumb, Dumb, Dumb.

 

Because then Wuertz would have to come out of the game, and the Cubs need to have him pitch multiple innings.

 

The pitcher's spot was due up 3rd the next inning. You either have Wuertz bat for himself (which does pretty severe damage to you scoring in the 13th) or you double switch, take your best hitter out, and hope that you win it before he has too many turns at bat. Lou's gambling and trying to win it in the next 2 innings.

 

No. You leave Eyre in there for more than 1 batter. It was a complete waste of a pitcher, and now our best hitter is out of the game and we're basically out of relievers now.
