Re: 06/20 Indians (Ohka) @ Cubs (Lilly) 12:05 WGN

Good to see the tradition of ineptitude against junk lefties is alive and well.

[UMFan83]

I think the Cubs came up there way too aggressive this inning. Everyone wanted to hit the walk off blast and failed because that's what you do most of the time you try to do that. Work the count boys.

[Butterscup1679666578]

that shitty pitcher made us look stupid

[TruffleShuffle]

what a cobbish inning.

[UMFan83]

Why would they put Perez in? Shouldn't Wood have pitched?

 

You put Bradley on the right side and put Reed against a LHP AND have a terrible pitcher face Lee?

 

Looks like it may work out, but it was still dumb

 

Because Wood is their closer and they don't want Perez to have to be their last defense if they take the lead. Not saying its necessarily right, but the majority of managers manage that way.

[Ski]

That was kind of sad.

Yeah, good to know we can hit against a guy with an ERA of 11, .395 BA against, and a WHIP of probably 2.

[NotSoSober]

terrible at bats, i'm sure this valbuena guy will end up hitting another hr or something

[Tryptamine]

that [expletive] pitcher made us look stupid

 

Clearly Perez's 11.0+ ERA and almost 2.5 WHIP were too much for the Cubs.

[Outshined_One]

I think the Cubs got to him yesterday fairly effectively.

[Vanilla Ice]

Ugh make the defense worse for Patton. Good job.

[Butterscup1679666578]

dont suck plz

[laurens]

Who's left in the bullpen? We might have to use Miles

What about Vizcaino or something? Anybody but Perez

Yeah like I said above, I gotta say that I was pretty disappointed with that last inning. I'm not saying they should have scored, but they should have at least gotten a base runner that inning, or at the very least gotten to a 3 ball count in the inning. You had your 3-4-5 up, all right handed, against a lefthander that is really struggling and helped blow the game yesterday. The approach was awful, Bradely only had one outcome on his mind, Lee same thing. Johnson at least took some pitches but he also check swung at a few bad ones.

[Outshined_One]

Seeing the pitcher attempt to bunt for a hit is rather amusing.

[Vanilla Ice]

Nobody.

 

I'd love to see Miles pitch and the defense that would come along with it.

 

Most likely Fox in left and Koyie at third. Blegh.

[UMFan83]

no one....I'd expect to see Dempster or Wells walking from the dugout to the pen in between innings. Patton will pitch 2, possibly 3 no matter what as long as the game continues that long.

[Guest]

So Patton, then Dempster? I can't believe they're already using the last reliever and its only the 13th inning.

[NotSoSober]

19 days 'til the next off day and the bullpen has been getting quite the workload lately.

[Vanilla Ice]

So Patton, then Dempster? I can't believe they're already using the last reliever and its only the 13th inning.

And we have had two relievers go multiple innings

[Guest]

At least Perez looks like ass when he bats.

[sweetpeteman]

So Patton, then Dempster? I can't believe they're already using the last reliever and its only the 13th inning.

 

 

Patton and then probably Wells.

 

 

Which means either Hart gets called up for tomorrow or Marshall gets the start.

[Outshined_One]

The Ascanio/Marshall/Marmol debacle pretty much made that a lock.

[Butterscup1679666578]

what a joke. [expletive] this guy.

[Andy]

Oh for God's sake.
