[UMFan83]

ill take it!

[BigSlick]

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Yes!

[badger]

really glad that didnt get stuck in the ivy.

I was just looking up TLS's splits....thought this was weird. In 2014 he had a .818 OPS (69 PA) against lefties and a .603 OPS (291 PA) against righties.

 

But despite this, Maddon has only given him 14 PA against lefties in his Cubs career vs. 142 against righties.

[David]

what the hell rat boy?

[BigSlick]

Wow

 

La Stella K'ing like a mad man

[UMFan83]

Tommy LaKella

[ConstableRabbit]

Just threw the ball right by him.

[ConstableRabbit]

Okay is anyone else getting this Travel Wisconsin ad? Who the hell does this horsefeathers appeal to? Seems like the worst restaurant experience I can imagine.

[BigSlick]

So whats the story with Rondon ? Is he available or what

I thought I read that he was available.

 

But Lackey is going for the shutout today.

I've seen that so many times now. It seems awful.

 

What the hell is so great about a waitress named Diane?

[Ski]

Way to waste a 3-0 count, LaStella. Christ.

 

But yay, we took the lead.

The place also undoubtedly smells like horsefeathers.

Probably sample size, he had normal splits in a lot more at bats in the minors.

 

2013/2014 (AA/AAA)

vs LHP: .295/.372/.326

vs RHP: .336/.416/.474

[UMFan83]

This might be the worst jinx ever by me but as we speak, every one of the Cubs 5 starters has an ERA of 2.88 or lower.

[badger]

Lack is flat out dealing.

 

 

 

 

(I still hate him.)

Lackey was such a great signing. He's giving us ace stuff, and we don't have a billion dollars of future money to worry about.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Also, this is why we are going to have such a ridiculous record. Even the games where the offense can't scrape anything together, we are still probably going to win because our starters throw shutouts every time they take the mound.

This is some 2015 Cardinals staff level pitching, except with better peripherals

[Ding Dong Johnson]

who is the dickhole batting now? this feed is grainy AF

[UMFan83]

This guy is singlehandedly making sure Lack doesnt start the 8th

[badger]

owings

[BigSlick]

Wendelstadt hates Lackey, but it hasn't really hurt him at all
