Does Sappelt have to start over DeJesus vs every LHP?

[Schwarber Fan]

Ok, I'm convinced about Cabrera now

[Andy]

Everth Cabrera.

[Smack]

[Hawk4Hall]

Gregg Time!

This is the 7th left hander we've faced this year, and the 7th time Sappelt has started. What do you think?

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Well, one run is probably going to score on a wild pitch. Can Gregg keep the other one from scoring? This is assuming he doesn't give up a homer, of course.

[Schwarber Fan]

Gregg is all business

[Sosa21MVP]

Kevin Gregg is such a boss.

Too bad Ryan Sweeney isn't right-handed. Sappelt would already be in Iowa.

Sappelt likely isn't the answer, but getting someone in there for DeJesus is a good idea with that .255 .325 .345 .669 line against lefties. Blech.

[KaiserCesar]

Matt Sczcur may be the next RH OF platoon partner, just have to wait a little longer for that glorious moment.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Last time the CUBS hit 4 doubles in a game.... Thu 18 Apr 2013 (6 2b) in a 6-2 win over Texas at Wrigley

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Facing Brad Brach..... should be like taking candy from a baby, no?

[Guest]

An insurance run or six would be nice right now.

CUBS have only scored 7 runs all year in the 8th inning.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 5-7 (.417) when the opponent commits at least 1 error.... 4-8 (.333) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

Darwin won't let us down !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 5-5 (.500) when they steal a base.... 4-10 (.286) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Schwarber Fan]

If Marmol comes in, Sveum should be fired mid-inning.

[Fred Hornkohl]

I sure don't like to see Barney dive like that !!

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 8-2 (.800) when they lead at the end of the 8th inning.... 1-13 (.071) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Ugh, diving into first.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

If Marmol comes in, Sveum should be fired mid-inning.

 

I agree that Gregg should be left in... he threw 2 or 3 pitches.
