this team needs more take sign implementation to the lower part of the order

[Sammy Sofa]

I hate miles more than any Cub I can recall. 6 men LOB in two at bats. Go job Miles.

 

Even more than Neifi?

[cubswin2009]

Guess the Cardinals pixie dust wore off.

[Keener98]

Ehh he swung at a strike.

Unfortuanately....

You must have a short memory.

[Outshined_One]

He's not quite at Jacque Jones or LaTroy Hawkins levels, but he's approaching Neifiness.

[jersey cubs fan]

When some team foolishly lets a guy like Aaron Miles test the open market, you just got to wrap him up with a 2 year deal as soon as possible.

[TruffleShuffle]

it'll be nice when this team actually starts getting hits with runners in scoring position.

[rawaction]

Good thing Miles is getting 2.5Mil/year.

[Tryptamine]

So in his limited at bats so far this year, Miles has grounded into a double play to end an inning. Popped up on the infield with bases loaded and flied out with bases loaded. Let's not forget the at bat he stared at 3 straight strikes without swinging.

[gflore34]

What did Miles lose some baseball IQ points when he became a Cub? Take sign or not you take another pitch!!!

[Outshined_One]

On the flip side, the Rockies have a worse bullpen than ours and Jimenez isn't going to make it past the 4th at this rate.

[mul21]

Is Jimenez really at 77 pitches thru 3 innings?

[rocket]

I hate miles more than any Cub I can recall. 6 men LOB in two at bats. Go job Miles.

 

He's not quite at Jacque Jones or LaTroy Hawkins levels, but he's approaching Neifiness.

Spilborghs flied out to left field

[Bixby]

I hate miles more than any Cub I can recall. 6 men LOB in two at bats. Good job Miles.

 

Jose Macias

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Spilborghs has lost 2 homeruns to the weather today.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Looks like weve been squandering us some scoring opportunities.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Helton popped out to third base

[Guest]

ted is going to give up a lot of long balls tho season

[Brian]

that first pitch to Helton was insane

[rocket]

NO HITTER THROUGH 4

 

IT'S GONNA HAPPEN

[gflore34]

On the plus side Lilly does seem to have better stuff than the other night when he was pitching Home Run Derby.
