4/14 Reds (Iglesias) @ Cubs (Hammel) 7:05 CSN

[Sammy Sofa]

I'm cool with Seal Boy over Soler.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Eh, good call, Joe. High-strikeout right-hander, and his best two pitches are his slider and change-up. Good game to give Jorge a day off. Let him come in and dong against their horrible bullpen.

[Bobson Dugnutt]

I like this lineup. Iglesias struck out 18 in 12.2 innings against the Cubs last year. Get as many high-contact hitters in there as possible.

Day game tomorrow (Ross) against Bettis(who I believe throws predominantly 4 seam FBs) make for a good spot for Soler to be thrown right back into the lineup too.

 

 

Also, Did you know? La Stella's .491 wOBA would have ranked #1 of any qualified hitter in MLB last year.

I'll bet you an internet dollar that he's behind Trout by the end of the year this year.

[David]

i literally refuse to believe lastella has ever gotten so much as on base

[PrimeTime]

Not worried about this pitcher. I get more worried about the Cubs facing lefties which they have struggled against going back to last year and as we seen on Monday.

Trout has some catching up to do! He's 172 points behind.

I literally spit up water on my keyboard.

Someone is throwing it around pretty loosely with all that sweet domain squatting profit.

[Omar]

la stella is in the line-up because he has a home run against iglesias

I don't believe this is anything but a scorekeeping error.

So he still might play in the 1st inning?

[RammyFanny]

You guys made me look up a LaStella dong and of course he appears to be hi-fiving someone wearing a "Rat Boy" jersey.

I don't think Maddon would pull Hammel after one 1-2-3 inning, but he's done crazier.

That is perfect.

[Vinestal]

I like how his hand leaves a trail of fire as he high fives Rat Boy

[Careless]

Why the heck are the White Sox running ads during Cubs games? You're not poaching fans from the 2016 Cubs.

[BigSlick]

With his leprechaun beard Hammel on first glance looks like a low rent Arrieta.

 

Which is fine

[David]

really? this again?

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Just what you want there.
