9/18 Cardinals (Lynn) @ Cubs (Haren) 1:20 CDT, ABC 7

That makes absolutely no sense unless Coghlan is dead.

He's probably still smarting from the foul ball, enough to make the platoon decision more logical in Joe's head. Why that doesn't apply to Bryant and Baez vis a vis La Stella is a new question.

 

Remember when Maddon PH'd Bryant against the Nats in like the 4th inning and we scored a bunch of runs? That was better than what just happened.

What the [expletive] was that

[Irrelevant Dude]

It is truly amazing that Haren is starting on a playoff-bound team.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 20-13 (.606) when they hit an opposing batter.... 65-48 (.575) when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[Guest]

Rosscup to face Carpenter. This will surely end well.

[treebird]

haren is like vincent adultman except instead of being little kids he is a literal pile of garbage inside a baseball uniform

[Irrelevant Dude]

CUBS are 20-13 (.606) when they hit an opposing batter.... 65-48 (.575) when they don't

Playing the percentages. Now that's smart pitching!

[BigSlick]

christ almighty

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 10-16 (.385) when their starter pitches 4-1/3 innings or less.... 75-45 (.625) when he doesn't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[BigSlick]

throw a strike you chump

[rocket]

this is fun

[apete6]

Maddon must have been out drinking with Bryant last night :)

 

This game is going to take 5 hours to play with all of the pitching changes. Though the impending rain might send it to it's merciful death earlier.

[ctcf]

oh dear

[JonJayCutler]

C'mon you [expletive] Cup of Ross.

[PrimeTime]

Rosscup [expletive] sucks

[rocket]

Nicely done

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Nice job, Rosscup

[Fred Hornkohl]

Sure would like to see on of them GIDPs right here.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Why is he still in the game?

[PrimeTime]

Here comes the Pham bases clearing double or hell walk in the run

[BigSlick]

how can you be this bad at baseball

[Tryptamine]

Why is this idiot still in the game?

[KatJ]

I wonder how that staff day is going to turn out if the backend of the rotation causes the bullpen to get a bunch of work this weekend?

[Hunter]

Dan Haren is a terrible pitcher and better not make the playoff roster.

[rocket]

One more you dork
