6/10 Braves (Glavine) @ Cubs (Lilly) 7:05 WGN & WGN Radio

Maybe Woody can have the night off now.

 

Doubtful, given Lou's penchant for using relievers after they've warmed up, regardless.

[inari]

I'd let Hart or Wuertz pitch the ninth now.

 

Leiber hasn't had work in quite a while.

[rookiecmon]

Great job Soto~~~~~~~~~~~

[Sammy Sofa]

That sounded so good coming off of the bat.

[TysonCBulls423]

oh yeah just FYI, I bought and am wearing a Soto jersey tee from Cubs clubhouse at Woodfield. This just means he's going yard tonight. :wink:

 

 

 

Yup! :mrgreen:

[JonnyRed]

WTG GEO! I guess that's one way to break out of your slump!

[BCVM22]

Someone explain to me the rationale for walking Aramis to get to Soto of all people?

 

To make the Atlanta nonbelievers see the light of Soto

I completely forgot that Hart was even on the team. I was thinking Lieber, Cotts, Wuertz, and isnt there someone else in the pen?

[Handlebar McSkullet]

That's what they get for disrespecting Soto!!

we all were just warned by the merciful SOTO to never doubt his magnificence again

[Garage Party]

Were they doing the war chant after the home run? I swear they were.

[Outshined_One]

Lieber will finish this one out!

[inari]

Leiber hasn't had work in quite a while.

 

I love when I'm right. It's a rare treat.

[Guest]

Lieber, eh? I figured Lou would still stick with Woody.

[BCVM22]

Wrong was I, Lieber throwing.

[cubscausestress]

just got in. jesus, this board/thread is the proverbial bitch-fest. have we traded geo, yet? is dlee in minors? did marmol die yet?

[TruffleShuffle]

by the way, the home run came on a breaking ball on the outer half of the plate - you know, the pitch that geo can't hit.

[Sammy Sofa]

Someone explain to me the rationale for walking Aramis to get to Soto of all people?

 

Well, he has been pretty horrible for about a month now.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

WTG GEO! I guess that's one way to break out of your slump!

 

Atlanta responds, "He's no Brian McCann."

[Careless]

His OPS for June is .4somethinglow. the last 10 days of May were similar

Plus, the Braves are underestimating Soto.

No, no! He just got a hit off of it! The past few weeks of sucking have just been a mirage!

 

I hope that this is a turning point and his prolonged slump is done, but it's not like one awesome AB instantly negates how bad he's looked for a few weeks now.
