5/31 Cubs (Hammel) @ Brewers (Peralta) 3:10 CSN

[David]

Guess it was my turn to start this. Whoops.

[Guest]

Holy [expletive] Rizzo!

[NOLA]

Another Starlin walk. Just catching up to this. Did Rizzo HR?

[Clem Fandango]

Yup. Waiting for the MLB video. Judging from David's reaction I assume it was a monster shot

Yeah, it went far.

 

Anybody know what the deal is with Peralta? Sounded like he got dinged earlier in the game.

[mul21]

Well that's just a dumb rule. The right call, but there's no way he should get that base when his progress wasn't impeded in the least.

[Soul]

Haha yea ok ump

I don't like days when Coghlan and/or Barney are in the lineup and Valbuena is not.

No one hitting after Castro has a .600 OPS, and after that inning Schierholtz is the only one above .500. That may be the worst back half of a lineup I've ever seen.

[ScrubMD]

Coghlan's playing time is especially confusing, unless they really see something they're sure they can fix. Even with our scarce and terrible OF options, there are many better options.

[ScrubMD]

Rizzo, however, is good.

[Guest]

rizzooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[Careless]

He's a beast.

[mul21]

And that one was more impressive.

[Guest]

castro follows it up with a line drive down the LF line for a double

There has to be somebody out there on the scrap heap better than what they're throwing out there every day. I'm tired of seeing Nate and his non existent OBP all the time.

[NOLA]

I need some video.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

There probably is, but does it really matter at this point?

[ScrubMD]

I Kyle'd him!

[mul21]

There probably is, but does it really matter at this point?

 

Yeah, to me. I'm tired of watching them get shut out every other day.

 

But in the grand scheme of things, no, probably not really.

[ScrubMD]

Baseball is [expletive] silly.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

baseball is stupid

[mul21]

I need some video.

 

Here's the first one.

And there's #2. Great call by JD too.

[Guest]

Remove this outlier from the run differential!

 

 

But not last night's, because we suck.

[NOLA]

I guess I missed the joke on JD's call on the 2nd HR. What's this disrespected and day off stuff?
