5/26: Cubs(Arrieta) @ LAD (Wood) 9:10 ABC7/MLBN

[Andy]

These jerks better get to Wood 3rd time thru next inning then let Roberts mismanage the pen. Even tho no runs this is more like 2016 Cubs where the pitcher is near 100 pitches thru 5 and almost sure to be over by sometime in the 6th.

 

Yeah, they've taken some good PAs, but Wood's been pretty filthy.

He was on his game from the jump. It was very annoying.

 

That Utley mistake was really funny.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

lol

 

But the Dodgers beat writers insist Utley is the headiest player who has ever lived.

[Schwarber Fan]

This is a pretty typical Cubs at Dodger Stadium game. It's what I expected in the NLCS and was pleasantly surprised.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Lol, Utley could do no wrong with Dodger beat writers

How would this deke him out and not tell him what he actually needed to do?

[Schwarber Fan]

Well, that'll do it for tonight.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Jesus, Jake.

[KrisBryantisaBeast]

Even going to California hasn't stopped Jake from being terrible.

[Andy]

Jake is getting in line behind Samardzija on the "thank God he didn't take our supposed lowball offer" list.

[mul21]

This Dodgers play-by-play guy is pretty insufferable. He just said it was only a matter of time on that Gonzalez homerun. What a turd.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Jake's shittiness is going to cost the Cubs Eloy. Sigh.

[Tryptamine]

It's not often you see a pitcher go from impending 200M deal to not even sure you want to use the QO on them in a 12 month period.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

How is it that Jake has found two completely different ways to suck the last two years?

[We Got The Whole 9]

Jake was far from shitty tonight. Just snake bit by the HR.

 

But it doesn't matter, if the Cubs post two whole hits.

I consider it just one big ball o' suck

[NotSoSober]

Great play. Now its time for him to start hitting

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Jake was far from horsefeathers tonight. Just snake bit by the HR.

I'll take a handful of hits and a 9:1 KBB any day. Sucks that the offense couldn't back him up.

The 10 HRs before Memorial Day is the problem. Ball wasn't even flying out tonight at Dodger Stadium.

[UMFan83]

Fine that we lost but geez 2 hit shutout?

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Arrieta's career path is starting to resemble something out of Flowers for Algernon
