8/23 Orioles (Norris) vs. Cubs (Hendricks) 1:20 pm CT CSN

[Careless]

I don't understand starting the game when you know you'll have a rain delay by the third inning

[Careless]

"What city did Jose Abreu play for in the Cuban National Series?" "The Dominican Republic"

[Careless]

I'm sure everyone involved is glad they started this game on time.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Grimm going instead of Villanueva.

Grimm going instead of Villanueva.

 

Solid 3 innings of work from Grimm.

[davell]

My guess is they'll give Grimm a shot at starting again next year.

I'm guessing Hendricks was pulled because of the delay?

[UMFan83]

0-3 3 K ugh

[Derwood]

I'm guessing Hendricks was pulled because of the delay?

 

3 hour+ delay, so yeah

[TruffleShuffle]

Baez is trying to create a new kind of hitter, the Two True Outcomes hitter

[OleMissCub]

I'm guessing Hendricks was pulled because of the delay?

 

3 hour+ delay, so yeah

 

Didn't realize it was so long. Just turned the game on and saw Jiminez pitching. Is he not a starter anymore?

Just got moved to the bullpen in the last week or so.

O's Hangout is immensely entertaining during this series lol.

[UMFan83]

Cubs get 5 runs in a game for the first time since Aug 7 (15 games)

 

Go Cubs!

[bukie]

If Baez goes 1 for 5 with a HR and 4 Ks every game...I can deal with that.

[Brian]

Javy going to end the season with the 2nd most home runs on the team

He's up to 7 on the year, which is 7th on the team. Two of the players ahead of him (Olt with 12 and Lake with 10) aren't on the team anymore. Castro has 13, Valbuena has 12 and Castillo has 10. So I'd say it's a decent shot.

I almost expect a season where Baez puts up a line like:

 

600 PAs, 300 Ks, 50 HRs
