[jersey cubs fan]

Just edit the post

[BigbadB]

Hendricks is gonna show Madbum how it's done.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Let's knock this redneck fool around.

[Bote McBoteface]

Hard to feel real confident going into this game. But, its baseball so that probably means Cubs will win 10-4.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Addi batting sixth is nice.

 

[UMFan83]

miggy is basically a platoon catcher at this point

[Bote McBoteface]

Zobrist hitting 2nd seems to make a lot more sense than Bryant or Rizzo...

[CaliforniaRaisin]

miggy is basically a platoon catcher at this point

 

To be fair, it isn't just any old lefty tonight.

[Cubswin11]

miggy is basically a platoon catcher at this point

I mean he is and has been basically a platoon catcher since we got him. Only 56 PAs vs LHP last year and his career numbers largely suggest he's best used as a platoon guy to maximize his value/effectiveness.

Early runs would be good

[Omar]

Why does that outfield seem so big?

[David]

damn... good horsefeathers soler

 

always a little annoying putting something together like this with two outs though

[Omar]

can we trade this Jessica Mendoza for Ron Coomer? I can get used to this voice.

[soccer10k]

damn... good [expletive] soler

 

always a little annoying putting something together like this with two outs though

 

After the two quick outs, I'm glad we're at least making him throw some pitches.

[Omar]

Walk in a run please.

[David]

damn... hell of an AB addy

[ConstableRabbit]

Good PA but that was just too close to take. Spoiled some great pitches there!

[UMFan83]

Damn. I don't mind him looking to take there though.

[Andy]

That was too bad, but it got us into their pen an inning earlier.

[CubinNY]

The female announcer is very good

[soccer10k]

Hendricks is falling behind too much.

[gobigred]

mlb really should try to avoid teams playing on the west coast late then east the very next day...
