Just thought about this but why not use Denorfia or Herrera in the 7th instead of Schwarber. Then schwarber could've batted foe Ross last inning or leading off the 9th?

[Tryptamine]

There is no reason whatsoever for Schwarber not to start tomorrow. This team can't score and you have the answer sitting on your bench.

Jason Motte: 2.79 ERA, 3.63 FIP and a under 6 K/9 Edited July 24, 2015 by ARCubsFan

Score more than 3 runs in these conditions. Really starting to hate this offense.

 

whats the deal with Rizzo lately does he have lower back soreness? Someone mentioned on another message board..

 

Oh god, you haunt more than one? Are you and Kyle on a mission to make Cubs message boards unbearable for all of humanity?

I really hope Joe doesn't do something dumb like put Soriano there but that's what I fear.

Cubs need two bullpen arms in the next week. I'm so tired of "his numbers are good." Well, why does it seem like every 9th inning is a roller coaster ride?

Ugh no stop bunting

[philosophizer75]

I wish everyone on our team could have as confident at-bats as Denorfia regularly does.

[Tryptamine]

There is not a single person on this entire team who can bunt.

[d_money]

Russell looks clueless

This is the 3rd run Motte has given up since May 15th.

Good, bunting is dumb

Dexter Fowler is using Kanye, game winning hit imminent.

Too bad Castro isn't hitting here

[downsr30]

I believe Len said the Cubs are 16-9 when Ross starts. Granted, he's catching Lester in probably 15 of those games, but he is a solid defender, but he shouldn't be catching at any other time other than when Ross is pitching, especially since we have 3 catchers. Soler and Coghlan are both showing very good signs, Rizzo and Bryant have been looking a little mystified of late, but Bryant hit a home run today. Castro is lost. Russell is meh, but good on defense. Fowler is coming back better than the last month before the break. Our hitting will be there, it might be spotty, but that's the part I think we wait for it to come into it's own, it'll happen. The 5th starter is.. Well we don't even know who that is actually..

 

Deadline NEEDS(not wants): a starting pitcher that is equal or better than Hammel and at least one proven bullpen arm, more like two.

Let's go "K"B. Prove me wrong.

[ARCubsFan]

Hate Giles vs Bryant

[downsr30]

Bryant has looked really bad on low and away sliders the last few weeks.

Nice at bat Bryant.

[Geech]

I wish Bryan would brettjackson less.

[Schwarber Fan]

Bryant can't hit a slider.

[Schwarber Fan]

Rizzo is about due to send one into orbit.
