6/28 Cubs (Gallagher) @ WhiteSox (Vasquez) 2:55 CT Fox

[BCVM22]

Why would Aramis swing at the first pitch there?

[Butterscup1679666578]

would've liked to see Ramirez work him there...

[UMFan83]

Sox are stalling for the thunderstorms that are approaching.

[Mizzou]

Did Thom call that one a bleeder? I've never heard that before.

[Schwarber Fan]

Edmonds is gonna park one

[RynoRules]

Ward takes pitches and gets on base. he's followed by our best hitter. Good move putting him there.

Theriot takes more pitches and gets on base more often than Ward does... should he start hitting 4th?

 

That said, nice at bat by Ward there.

 

Ward hits for more power than Theriot and hits lefthanded (Vazquez is a righty). Care to go another round?

[haubrich91]

I'm liking this early scoring.

They better hope there's a lot of development on the southern part of it, because most of it will pass to the north.

Ward doesn't have much power anymore though. He's definitely not a 4 hitter.

Well then...don't I look dumb

Ward leads the team in p/pa. Theriot is near the bottom.

It's what I wondered, under what definition is a fly out to RF a bleeder?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Edmonds struck out swinging

[Butterscup1679666578]

Ugh, we really need more than 2 here.

[BCVM22]

Damn. Soto needs to do some work here.

[CubsNSkers07]

That looked like the Padres Edmonds there hopefully that doesn't turn into a pattern.

[UMFan83]

He didn't look too great in that AB.

 

Was really really far out in front.

[Roast]

Did he say geovany went aroudn right there? WTF?

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I wanted to see us get more than two here. :x

[UMFan83]

i really hope Gallagher comes out sharp after a 10 day rest.

Another round? Haha.

 

I just refuted your initial argument... I'm not advocating Theriot hitting cleanup. Obviously I'd rather have Ward than Theriot there. But it still doesn't make any sense whatsoever to bat Ward cleanup.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I hope Gallageher gets the corners like Vasquez has gotten.

[BigSlick]

Vazquez has gotten a TON of gift calls, I demand that Gallagher receive the same.

[UMFan83]

Vazquez has really made some great pitches to the last 2 hitters.

[Roast]

That was a nice curve.
