2017 NLCS GAME 2 (Oct 15) Lester vs the old cub on the Hill. 6:30 CST TBS

[Cubswin11]

Ugh

[We Got The Whole 9]

Dunce just setting up the double play, I guess

[Schwarber Fan]

Their pen is just deeper than ours. If we can’t hit, that decides the series.

[profisme]

They somehow know how to take pitches.

[Brian]

yeah not feeling great here

[soccer10k]

He’s unhittable.

 

When you swing at every pitch a foot above the zone he sure is.

 

just guessing here that those pitches are extremely deceptive, especially against righties, and not that contreras suddenly became the least selective hitter there (i couldn't include almora there, heh)

 

I'm sure they are. The main one that ticked me off was the first one to Willy. Jansen almost hit KB then hit Rizzo in the span of 3 pitches. I know Jansen throws a ton of strikes but try taking the first one.

[imb]

season on the line and it's either in duensing or lackey's hands. christ

[KatJ]

Duensing still? That’s interesting.

 

Jeez, just give Puig the IBB if you’re going to pitch that far off.

[soccer10k]

Well this definitely gets Jansen out of the game. Won't matter unless we get out of this though.

[NotSoSober]

Puig is so horsefeathering weird

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Holding Davis back for imaginary save situation.

[Gilby]

OK, I get not starting Wade with the bottom of the order, but now is his time. C'mon Joe, you know better

[profisme]

OK, I get not starting Wade with the bottom of the order, but now is his time. C'mon Joe, you know better

 

Does he?

[soccer10k]

It's going to be Taylor that beats us, right?

[squally1313]

Davis isn’t even warming up. I wonder if we broke him.

[soccer10k]

Davis isn’t even warming up. I wonder if we broke him.

 

Joe's waiting for a save situation.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Davis isn’t even warming up. I wonder if we broke him.

 

Joe has never wanted to use a closer in a tie game on the road.

[NotSoSober]

Come on you child eating bastard

[Gilby]

OK, I get not starting Wade with the bottom of the order, but now is his time. C'mon Joe, you know better

 

Does he?

 

In the playoffs, I thought he did

[minnesotacubsfan]

hear comes LACKEY

[r_mack]

Why are the Dodgers using their closer but Joe isn't using his

[raw]

Gotta bring in Davis, man.

[Brian]

pretty sure this will be a lame single

[KatJ]

“When the pressure was at its peak, Duensing was able to go soft.”

 

Now THERE’S a quote LOL!

[squally1313]

I was under the impression lackey only made the NLDS because they weren’t sure about jakes health. So I’m not even sure why he’s here right now, much less pitching right now.
