4/12 Cubs (Hendricks) @ Rockies (Lyles) 3:10 WGN

[Gilby]

Nice hit by Montero.

 

Mendy needs to start hitting to stay in the lineup. I know he's walked 4 times but it seems like he's either striking out or making weak contact the rest of the time.

 

Plus that Addison Russell guy is pretty good.

Kevin Gregg vs Carlos Villanueva pitching matchup in the 10th for the Cardinals-Reds game. Advantage???

[treebird]

hey guys is it possible that it's not a good thing to let every single batter put the ball in play

[kujay]

If I were a Rockies fan I'd be just fine with that AB by the pitcher.

Yup at this point were looking at a 5IP outing from Hendricks today

[treebird]

too bad we don't have a real left fielder

[UMFan83]

Why did we get rid of that [expletive]?

[kujay]

Brutal.

[KatJ]

[expletive]. LeMahieu is a Cub killer.

[Guest]

Coghlan sucks in the OF. Cost us three runs right there.

[bcl412]

Annoying inning. Fouling off every two strike pitch until they get a hit.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I hate Coghlan.

[Guest]

only well struck ball of the entire inning is the bases clearing triple, lame

[sneakypower]

Szczur probably gets to that

[UMFan83]

Guess that league leading BABIP against is only going to go up today

[Tryptamine]

Coghlan simply cannot be the LFer for this team. His bat just does not make up for his horrendous defense.

[PrimeTime]

Come the [expletive] on..

[Guest]

Here's the danger with Hendricks not being able to strike anyone out.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

It is fine if you are super smart and study scouting reports. Unfortunately, Hendricks was actually watching Netflix and just tabbing back if anyone looked.

[KatJ]

Aaannd the Rocks' hit parade continues. Which is more lethal to the Cubs, our pitching staff or our fielders?

[Agony and Ivy]

[expletive] BABIP

[UMFan83]

Guess being a pitch to contact pitcher doesn't work when you have a bad OF defense and everything put in play finds a spot

[Schwarber Fan]

Just to confirm, other teams have these obnoxious innings happen against them all the time, too. Right?

Hahahaha! I sometimes wonder that myself! :-)
