[weis21]

cubs will score here. maybe a miggy bomb?

[Aaron_Kennelly]

We've got this. We're going to dong him multiple times.

[weis21]

oh. wow. should be 3-1

[JennieGarthAlgar]

I literally just walked in the door from Bonnaroo... What did I miss the past 6 days? Whats with Soler and how has Almora looked?

[weis21]

well this game thread is about to get REAL interesting.

he strained his soler muscle (hamstring) and put on 15 day DL.

 

Cubs also traded for Cogs again and he's playing tonight.

 

Almora has looked like God's gift to outfield baseball defense.

[Schwarber Fan]

Just don't K 21 and we're cool.

 

Thx.

[CubinNY]

Wow. I wanted the Cubs to go after Max when he hit FA, just for the record.

[weis21]

this new Independence Day movie looks like the worst movie of all time.

[Tryptamine]

I don't know that I've ever seen 3 filthier innings pitched than that.

[weis21]

respectfully disagree (Wood's 20 K game)

[BigSlick]

This is one of those nights where if Scherzer is given a generous zone (and it looks like he'll have one) he has a shot at a no-hitter/20 strike out game

 

Only consolation is he's at 40 pitches

[weis21]

thanks to stupid MLB blackout rules I'm stuck with the ESPN coverage.

 

Is it Perez that is the analyst/color guy? His voice irritates the horsefeathers out of me.

[David]

ok well this game is over

[BigSlick]

Ah. Was gonna say - this is a very dangerous spot for Hendricks, can't really pitch around Harper with a man on first and only one out, and then the defense melts the horsefeathers down

 

Defense hasn't been *great* the last few days

[weis21]

what kind of horsefeathering slide was that?

[weis21]

am I stupid or was that a sort of dirty ass slide?

 

Edit: this could also be a trick question.

[Schwarber Fan]

Glad I'm not watching the Nats broadcast. Can't imagine how annoying Bob and FP are tonight.

[NotSoSober]

am I stupid or was that a sort of dirty ass slide?

I thought it was, but maybe it's just my love of Bryant

[Gilby]

Praise be to Arrieta that Kris' cleat didn't stick into the ground, otherwise that's a broken ankle

[Andy]

I wish Hendricks hadn't walked the guy in front of Bryce Harper.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

43-19 ain't so bad.

[weis21]

lol perez said zimmerman's face was saying "come on man you're in run scoring situation and i'll knock you in". that was a silly thing to say about ryan zimmerman.

[NOLA]

this new Independence Day movie looks like the worst movie of all time.

Since the previous ID4?

[CyHawk_Cub]

The 20 K record might be going down tonight. In all seriousness, hats off to Scherzer. Dude is on point.
