5/9 Cubs (Arrieta) @ Rockies (Senzatela) 1:10 CT, CSN

[UMFan83]

Our 3 runs today have been scored on RBI groundouts. Very sexy.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

horsefeathering rockies playing defense like they're the 2016 cubs or something

Damn, we're on fire right now!

Miggy might lead the majors in relief appearances by the time this season is over.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

this whole game would look a lot different if Javy's other throw was that accurate

[David]

i think almora might just be slow enough to make a bunch of catches look really good but not actually have very good range as a CF

[Schwarber Fan]

Mark Reynolds is hitting .336 with 12 HR? WTF?

[Liam Neeson]

If we do use a position player to pitch, please let it be either Javy or Willson.

[CincyCubsFan]

Just tuned in. We're getting crushed again? I'm shocked.

Man, this would be much more frustrating had the Cubs. It won the World Series last year.

I hate to be positive about something, but Floro did a fine job today

And as a reward he will likely be sent down after today for a fresh arm.

So how do we feel about Lackey in game two?

[Schwarber Fan]

Almora is such a bright spot so far.

Jim Edmonds in CF then with Jeters bat, I'll take it

Schwarber just looks off balance at the plate right now, just seems a bit out of sync.

Edmonds was actually really horsefeathering good defensively before he got old, narratives about intentionally making catches look spectacular aside.

Oh I know, I feel like he probably falls into the category of being a little less athletic/quick as other guys, like you laid out with Almora. He didn't have great speed/range which forced him into having to get extra good jumps/reads and make a lot of running/diving plays.

He always played shallow as hell too and that contributed to the highlight reel nature of a lot of his catches.

Little known fact: the artist who made that sculpture died making it. A large piece of it fell off a wench and severed an artery in his leg. His family, after a long delay, finished the job.
