4/13 Cubs (Lester) vs Reds (Leake) 7:05 CSN+

Framing my ass, he just cost us a strike because he couldn't catch the damn ball

[Guest]

It was no on, 2 out in the 6th.

 

Yea. Too late in the game for it considering the context.

 

The context is they are in the worst situation for run scoring possible outs/runners-wise, and even if you pinch hit Montero and he reaches base then Szczur and Herrera are behind him. That's not a situation to use a bench bat.

[Andy]

So the personal catcher can't be counted on to catch the ball either.

[OleMissCub]

take ross out in the middle of the inning, bobby cox-andruw jones style

 

That moment was forever ingrained in my mind during my youth.

Ross is still out there though.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

On a scale of 1-10, how excited should I be about Lester's 1.65 FIP this season?

[Guest]

BB is as good as a HBP, no?

[SouthSideRyan]

Why don't we get Kevin Gregg?

[hawkeyecub]

These are aggressive swings.

[Guest]

goodness, two pitches to drive squandered

[DiamondMind]

btw TT, you have to subtract an inning of chances to tie the game against Cincy pretty much, with Chapman

[Careless]

What a beast. Could see that one coming.

[d_money]
