WTF Bryant?

Joe said he wants to get Bryant and Rizzo a day, so expect a Rizzo-less lineup this weekend too.

[CubInOK]

Arrieta better put up a 0 tonight.

[Gilby]

Fortunately Arrieta is a good strikeout pitcher. Wouldn't be a bad idea to limit the balls in play tonight.

Desperate moves while squinched up against the trade deadline and without the infield flexibility when trying to give Bryant a day off isn't Joe really taking your advice, sontensei

[DiamondMind]

I was so shocked to see Coghs hitting third I didnt even see he was playing 3rd too

[Schwarber Fan]

Chris Coghlan in the 3 spot o_0

 

No Kris Bryant and David Ross back there. This...is gonna be a series.

 

Coghlan playing 3B is FAR more alarming than him in the 3 spot.

he shoulda just asked theo to replace teagarden with a guy he can actually use

[DiamondMind]

You're gonna see Coghs at 1B tomorrow too I'd assume

[sontensei]

diamond your probably right

[BigSlick]

I can't tell you how frustrating it is that Coghlan pronounces his name "Cogg-lan" and not "Cough-lan"

[UMFan83]

He does it just to piss you off

[Sammy Sofa]

I've always been calling him Crandall.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Technically trade deadline related but the game threads are the traditional place for meatballing and emotional reactions: I'm actually starting to get nervous that the Cubs are going to stand pat or just pick up some utterly meaningless pitcher who is barely better than a scrap-heap guy, a la Haren.
