6/22 Cards (Wacha) @ Cubs (Arrieta) 1:20 ABC

[Stu]

so sick of Jhonny PEDralta

[UMFan83]

Why does Peralta always kill us?

[Irrelevant Dude]

uh, the bulls just traded derrick rose

Should I know who any of those guys are?

[UMFan83]

Is Jake going to make it through 5 today? 83 pitches through 3.1 IP.

 

In his last 11 starts he went more than 6 innings only 5 times. In his 11 starts prior to that he went 7 innings 10 times, and the one time he didn't it was his last start of the regular season and was on a pitch count limit, and still went 6.

[Stu]

sometimes I wonder if Jake works out too hard during the season and should taper off a bit, hit it harder in the offseason.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

I remember back when the Cubs were the team who made the opposing pitcher throw a ton of pitches

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Scissors is lucky he didn't lose his face there

[gobigred]

We get one more inning out of Jake today?

[weis21]

Szczur!!!

[BigSlick]

Well, that's the end of that.

 

Can we get like, a baserunner now. I'm totally preoccupied with this Derrick Rose news so at least win the game quickly I have a lot of sports things to think about

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Man, this is like a boxing match where there haven't been any knockdowns but one guy is kicking the other guy's ass with a bunch of jabs and wearing him out.

[Agony and Ivy]

Jake needs to go longer in games. We're now an inning away from handing a 0-0 game to middle relievers.

IKR! He literally NEVER goes deep into games.

[BigSlick]

Is this a total joke?

 

 

is this an absolute total joke? I can't deal with this series right now. I think I'll just turn it off.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Ugh

[17 Seconds]

these guys blow

I don't think that's what I said but keep being a douche.

[Andy]

This whole series is horsefeathering stupid

[UMFan83]

That's 6 double plays hit into this series

[Cubswin11]

Two games in a row Moss makes an inexplicable diving catch/stop, cool

[Bryants Disco Ball]

J-Hey off the bat knew it was likely an out. Coghs for some reason did not. But good job getting on base, at least.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Hit a Riz homer and it's all looking good.

[BigSlick]

Oh cool, we would have definitely had multiple runs by now if it wasn't for an inexplicable play by an unathletic player

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I know it's always said, but it's really true. I mean, everything changes if he doesn't catch it. For all we know they pitch to Bryant and he grounds into a double play. Ya know?

[raw]

Ok Zobrist, you can be good again and stop rolling over on outside pitches.
