27 pitches, 25 strikes.

 

I knew the PC was low but 25 strikes is insane

Rizzo obviously does not see him very well

[UMFan83]

Next year we sit zobrist until September so we can get his 2 good months at the right time

[bcl412]

Oppo doubles into the gap are pretty.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Well, we are getting traffic and driving up his pitch count. Time to cash in.

[TruffleShuffle]

Zobrist's terrible walk up music is much less tolerable when he's not hitting well.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

how is Contreras's K rate north of 30%, that is incredible to me

[David]

niceeeeee

[TruffleShuffle]

Lol

"horsefeathers it, I'll do it myself," says the rookie.

60 thru 3 for Noah vs 27 for Jake Edited July 20, 2016 by UMFan83

Now that's how you run the bases!

[Andy]

Gotta love baseball. Don't score with all those chances in the first 2 innings and Contreras makes a run out of nothing.

Normally I am really good at perceiving pessimistic trends and I had no idea it was that high.

Isn't that the one that stabilizes pretty quickly too, unfortunately? It's totally blown up from his MILB numbers, and you'd think it would settle down eventually (probably at the expense of some power, but still).

[UMFan83]

9 pitch inning

[Gilby]

You ain't a Cubs rookie unless you strike out 30% of the time your first season

JAKE

A stat "stabilizing" doesn't mean it won't improve from there, it just means it takes X PAs until you can reasonably draw any conclusions from it.

He's out. Good slide for a pitcher though. Edited July 20, 2016 by bcl412

[Schwarber Fan]

Never touched plate

 

Edit: nvm. Lol, umps.

Damn

[sweetpeteman]

Honestly, that was a horrible call by the ump. Looking straight at it and farted out a safe call.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

This is totally not factual but it seems we have so many plays at the plate.
