9/17 Cubs (Hendricks) @ Pirates (Morton) 11:35 CDT, WGN/MLBN

[Ski]

Good [expletive] job, Hendricks. Way to step up.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I just..........I feel like he should be able to hold a 3-0 lead against a Pirates team without Cutch and Kang for more than 2 2/3 innings.

[Stu]

aren't the Cubs like worst in MLB in stranding runners in scoring position or something? I thought they mentioned that on the ESPN broadcast.

[Andy]

If we had 3 good pitchers instead of 2, with our dongsmen, I'd feel so much better about our chances in October.

[BigSlick]

ARE YOU [expletive] KIDDING ME

[BigSlick]

this is unacceptable

[badger1679666666]

relax bedwetters, we're gonna score more than 3 runs today.

[Schwarber Fan]

Cahill needs to be given a chance to start.

[Ski]

I mean, it's not like our pitchers are sucking on purpose, but... ugh. The meatball in me wants to get upset at them for not trying harder.

[UMFan83]

Anyone else wish we got more than 1 run with the bases loaded and 0 outs?

We do have three good pitchers.

 

We only have two great ones.

[imb]

And we're losing just like that.

 

wow does our rotation suck after Lester and Jake

 

well we have three bad pitchers after them

[badger1679666666]

pretty sure no one does.

I don't know for sure, but I think Rondon Fan probably does.

They're the worst team driving in runners from 3rd with less than 2 outs. But every team is the same I've been told.

Well...yeah. Who is going to say no?

Do I need to show you his numbers with Atlanta?

[XZero771679666304]

Kyle Hendricks has been less than stellar in the second half. I know he's working through some stuff, but I don't have much confidence in him right now.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Pirates are seeing 4.20 P/PA through 3 innings.

 

 

Go CUBS !!

I guess I should say 3 pitchers we had reason to feel confident in against playoff lineups. Hendricks scares me, even when he's pitching well it's just so hard for a guy without intimidating stuff to sustain.

I know laughing at my posts is the cool thing to do, but I don't see any reason why he shouldn't.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Ugh, Rat Boy.

That's not what you've been told.
