[Sammy Sofa]

Ah well. Start clobbering again later today.

[Cubswin11]

What a weird rule, why wouldn't that just be a dead ball?

[Ski]

So, to keep with our rollercoastering tradition, are we going to lose 15 of 17 now?

[NotSoSober]

well that fuckin sucks.

STOP

[ARCubsFan]

Bryant has been really really really bad lately

STOP

^_^

[Ski]

Tomorrow, don't make shitty pitches to good hitters and we should be fine.

Yep. Our 17-games-over-.500 team is going to lose 15 of 17.

[DiamondMind]

Hard to not blame that entire game on Hammel

[NotSoSober]

Bryant has been really really really bad lately

not really

Thank goodness Schwarber is pounding because Krys is not looking like mr. can't miss right now.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Bryant has been really really really bad lately

 

I know, he was only OPS'ing .949 in August prior to tonight.

[Sammy Sofa]

Bryant has been really really really bad lately

 

.319 .439 .511 .949 in August.

look at the numbers instead of guessing while sad about a strikeout

[Ski]

If Bryant can ever improve his pitch recognition, he'll be even studlier.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Hard to not blame that entire game on Hammel

 

But he had 3/5ths of a great season. How could he drop a turd after doing that? Or at least how could he do it for like the fourth time in his career? Surely he's due to sustain it one of these times.

[Sammy Sofa]

Bryant has been really really really bad lately

 

Thank goodness Schwarber is pounding because Krys is not looking like mr. can't miss right now.

 

.300 .333 .500 .833 over the last week.

 

.308 .400 .538 .938 over the last 2 weeks.

[NotSoSober]

bryant was pretty bad in july. maybe that's what he meant by recently

Exactly. Absolutely awful this last week. :D

[Sammy Sofa]

I feel like Ski and ARCubsFan are furtively trying to tug each other while posting. Each time one says something negative the other starts yanking even harder and angrier.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

I mean, Bryant is two days removed from a 12-game hitting streak. You people are so dour.

[DiamondMind]

I just want to reinforce how [expletive] Hammel looked tonight. I'm concerned.

 

But for whatever concern I have about Hammel - it's equally stupid to have that concern about Bryant. He's OPSing 950 in August and has a 3.5 WAR for the year. Jeez.

He is hitting like .300 in august. Chris sale is one thing the tigers is another tho...
