How can you say Grimm ruined it? we have to be averaging like 8-10 people LOB every game, sure feels that way at least

He served up the meatiest meatball in history to Bruce.

 

yeah that was one of the worst pitches i've ever seen

 

even worse than the one rondon threw to goldschmidt

[DiamondMind]

Yea if you guys remember Frazier hooked a ball that was even more on his shoelaces against us for a HR early in the year. I forget the game, but it happened.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Huzzah! A Castro hit!

[Derwood]

Wait, is there some other #13 who just pinch hit for Castro?

What about Strop's 1-2 to Peralta

[BigSlick]

*rub glasses furiously*

 

a Starlin....hit????

[DiamondMind]

why the [expletive] is he squaring on a 2-0 count down by 2 runs

[BigSlick]

Someone for the love of god hit a home run

[UMFan83]

Remember that stretch earlier in the year when it felt like no matter how far the Cubs fell behind they were going to come back and make things interesting?

 

How did we go from that to a team where a 1 run deficit feels almost insurmountable?

 

We stopped hitting for power

[DiamondMind]

what a stupid at bat

Nothing will ever be worse than the pitch to Goldschmidt - location and selection - after the weak swings he had at sliders before the fastball.

So what are we supposed to wait on with this offense? More development?

 

It's tiresome watching this crap night after night.

To be honest I hope Russell reaches just to get Fowler out of the order next inning

[ScrubMD]

You can't just waste a Starlin Castro single.

[Guest]

only raised his obp by like 20 points in 2 days or something

[DiamondMind]

OH HEY ITS THE GUY THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN FACING VOTTO LAST INNING

[Schwarber Fan]

Fowler has by far had the best collective at-bats of any Cub since the All-Star break.

Have you heard of this guy Kyle Schwarber

[weis21]

OH HEY ITS THE GUY THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN FACING VOTTO LAST INNING

you mean the guy that barely has any splits between his LH/RH stats and doesn't strike anyone out? how would have have been better than Wood?

[Guest]

that was pretty by starlin

Im not even answering this because you'd have rather had Russell in there too
