Well, at least Kalish and Sweeney didn't ground into double plays.

Cubs winning in spite of Renteria

 

This is righter.

[Sammys Boombox]

So, is this like the opposite of the Pirates loss where we were happy because Castro and Rizzo were good? Are we happy for the (hopeful) win, but upset because our new manager is obviously a complete moron?

[thefranchise]

And that's why you don't leave your closer in to hit with a chance to win the game

I'm done defending Renteria on the bunting.

 

If Castro and Rizzo don't just have outrageously good seasons, fire him after this year. This is getting gross.

Wellington's homer was probably part of a called hit and run

I would have been happier if he didn't do dumb [expletive] to make the game 2 innings longer than it needed to be. Then I also wouldn't completely hate him right now.

In the long run our manager being a moron probably won't be an issue, because if he's still a moron at the end of 2015 (when we're presumably going to try again) he'll just get fired.

That makes up for about two games' worth of pitch-framing.

 

He's excellent defensively. I get that his pitch framing has been bad, but someone needs to explain to me how 7 strikes equals a run because I really am in the dark when it comes to this.

[Omar]

Great strike 2 or greatest strike 2?
