05/28 Phillies (Eickhoff) @ CUBS (Hendricks) 1:20 CDT, ABC7

ZOOOOOOORILLA

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Zobrist keeps hitting.

[Ski]

Ben Zobrist.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Is one year of Zobrist worth four of Castro or not even close?

[Gilby]

I used hyperbole in a game thread. Don't fact check.

[BigSlick]

Ben Zobrist has exceeded every one of my fairly high expectations

 

Dude is just killing it

[Sammy Sofa]

Hot damn!

[UMFan83]

I love how we can completely stack our lineup with lefties so easily and not lose anything. Or righties it doesn't matter

i wasn't so much trying to be nitpicky as like...we really see that horsefeathers all the time. now that we have a dongerrific lineup, these games are going to be the best.

[Sammy Sofa]

The dark magic murder voodoo Zobrist no-doubt engaged in to possibly have the best year of his career at age 35 might be the creepiest and weirdest thing about him, but you can't really argue with the results.

[KrisBryantisaBeast]

Lol @ Soler.

[UMFan83]

Righties 0-2 with GO and K

Lefties 3-4 HR and 2 2B and FO

 

Yep this guys scouting report is accurate

[Cubswin11]

Georgie is just playing the long con with that curve making Eickhoff think he can't recognize it and he's gonna blast one to Waveland next AB when he hangs it.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

That was maybe the most wind-aided homer I've ever seen. This is gonna be fun to watch.

 

Soler had one last year in the last game of the Atlanta series that I was stunned got out. Looked like a high fly ball off the bat but it just kept carrying.

 

Bryce Harper's bat slam homer

 

I could be remembering wrong but I think that was a weird stormy night with crazy winds

 

 

I just remember that it was against Hendricks and it was the only run he gave up the whole night, so it pissed me off.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

it's got to be a little weird for Howard to know that his career is pretty much over after this year

[Aaron_Kennelly]

You don't have to worry about the wind when you get them out swinging.

[UMFan83]

it's got to be a little weird for Howard to know that his career is pretty much over after this year

 

His career was over like 4 years ago, just no one told him.

[Sammy Sofa]

Ho-ho-ho.

lol, I can't decide if I get more enjoyment over this, or your fear that Maddon had truly gone crazy during last year's spring training. Both were/are good.

[soccer10k]

Time to put this thing out of reach, Cubs.

[David]

addison muscle should be a nickname for the whole team

[BigSlick]

Let's see something silly like a Hendricks dinger

His career was over like 4 years ago, just no one told him.

 

I should clarify, it's kinda weird that he'll play mostly every day for the final 3 years of his contract and then the moment it's over be basically out of baseball. Doesn't happen very often for sure.
