Take that....random handful of barely groomed conifer trees in center field!

this post is almost as painful to read as that schwarber strikeout was to watch

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Just throwing this out there: Sammy Sofa hasn't posted since before the game Friday night. And we've scored infinity runs since then. And our starting pitcher has worked into the 7th in three straight games.

Nice play by our +2.9 UZR left fielder.

 

Schwarber's now around 90 games in the OF as a major leaguer and grades out +6 UZR/150.

 

Also he's a danger to himself and the Cubs should be ashamed for playing him in LF.

Jon Lester: kinda good

It's nice to have 2 Jose Quintana's in the rotation

[weis21]

[Brian]

[bcl412]

BS

[Cubswin11]

I think Happ and Bryant could both beat Almora in one of those Freeze style races with Happ/Bryant as the Freeze and Almora as the everyday yokel Edited July 18, 2017 by Cubswin11

but he’s not in his PRIME

[KrisBryantisaBeast]

Not sure what New York was looking at there he was clearly safe.

[TruffleShuffle]

in decisions like that, they should announce that the incorrect call on the field has been upheld.

[cwood218]

Javy showing Happ the proper way...

[weis21]

i really enjoy jd 98% of the time but he's got a little meatball in him down deep. but comparatively speaking he's heads and shoulders above most color guys

[Brian]

is 90 pound relievers the new market inefficiency?

[Brian]

yay BABIP swinging back

[Cubswin11]

Vroom vroom

[David]

if not for freeman this would be yet another 9 or 10 run game for our offense ha

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Why is Javy starting over Russell tonight?

 

So Russell can drive him in later on.

[Splendid Splinter]

CB really like to do the strike 3 call.
