Sobriety can eat a bag o' dicks.

 

Supposed to say Zobrist, but the feeling is the same.

[CubInOK]

I hope Zobrist never plays for us again.

[Tryptamine]

Maybe I'm wrong, but Jake's delivery looks more over the top than it was last year. Less movement.

[CubInOK]

Remember the Bryant dong in the Arrieta no-hitter?

[Brian]

going to blame Zobrist for not being able to turn that

[raw]

Little slower than I'd like from Zobrist.

[Brian]

ok we good Zob

[jersey cubs fan]

How bout that

[Tim]

Yeah, tough dp, but it was a slow turn without much on the throw.

[CubinNY]

Ok Benny!

[ScrubMD]

That's better, Ben.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

29 pitches thru 3

[Andy]

ZOBRIST IS THE GREATEST SIGNING EVER

[David]

what is wrong with me

 

instead of being happy about that i'm just even more freaked out about arrieta having line drives sprayed all over off him

[CubInOK]

Maybe Zobrist can stay on the team.

[Tim]

Yeah, I'm a couple pitches behind.

[Tim]

And now we have Rizzo, Bryant, Schwarbs, Soler.

Kinda reminds me of how he looked in the Pirates WC game, some missed bats but a good amount of hard contact at guys. But maybe he's trying to pitch to more contact this year to preserve pitches knowing that Theo/Joe have said they want to limit him a bit?

[Schwarber Fan]

Do we have the biggest lineup in baseball?

 

The Blue Jays, Orioles, Dodgers, and maybe the Marlins might be right there.

 

Marlins? Lol

Doesn't have his nastiest stuff. Still better than everyone else.

you know this, but baseball is just a constant reminder that nothing will ever be exactly perfect

velo is really good, and I think he's maybe thrown one or two non-fastballs, so maybe the whiffs are coming

[CubInOK]

And now we have Rizzo, Bryant, Schwarbs, Soler.

Bring the DH to the NL plz.

[Tim]

That changeup has really been fooling the lefties

Pitching to contact is one thing, pitching to hard contact is another.
