5/1: Cubs (Hendricks) vs Rockies (Gray), 7:05 CT WGN/MLBN

[Schwarber Fan]

Of course that doesn’t get out. Whatever.

[Cubswin11]

Crazy that didn’t at least go off the wall. Also what’s up with Gray’s face? His upper jaw or something is real weird looking.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Of course that doesn’t get out. Whatever.

It didn't have a lot of loft to catch a jet stream

[Agony and Ivy]

 

They have a lot of bad hitters *today*

 

Oooooh ok. I was going to say even if you expand it to all non pitchers on the roster right now only 4 of 12 are under 100. But now that we got that cleared up I won't even bother mentioning it.

 

half the lineup tonight has a combined sub-.700 ops, you know what i'm saying

 

No I don't because there are better ways to determine offensive value than OPS. For example, wRC+. I even left the snapshot of the numbers up there in my response.

 

Honest question, are people completely unaware of Jon Gray being an ace that happens to pitch in Coors? We smoked him once and he's gotten us thus far tonight. It horsefeathering happens.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Nope, sorry, we suck tonight and they should be ashamed of their sucking. What's their wRC+ for tonight?

#AceHendricks, get the man some runs Edited May 2, 2018 by Cubswin11

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Can't give up three runs and expect to win.

Should’ve called up Mike Feeman

[We Got The Whole 9]

If I were Black, Gray would go 9 tonight

[Hairyducked Idiot]

OK, maybe Gray is just too good. Drafting Bryant was a mistake?

[Andy]

Pace of play initiatives, let's spend time debating the mound visit, blah blah blah. Len and JD already covered it.

[CyHawk_Cub]

TORP, or a high OBP singles hitter? The eternal conundrum.

[chicagocubs04]

lol @ strike 2

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Good job ump

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Good job ump

 

Good job Vic, on that swing.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Oh, well. Getting a guy to third counts for something.

[Schwarber Fan]

Our offense blows.

[Sammy Sofa]

Quit being a bunch of nerds with all the triples you can't cash in on and horsefeathering UNLEASH DONGS ALREADY.

If we were just average at getting runners home from 3rd with less than 2 outs instead of dead last for like the 3rd consecutive year we’d be unstoppable Edited May 2, 2018 by UMFan83

[Cubswin11]

Bums

[We Got The Whole 9]

I'd like to kick Joe in the nuts

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Good job ump

 

Good job Vic, on that swing.

 

Though it doesn’t excuse it, one doesn’t happen without the other.

[Andy]

I guess there was no way the end of this win streak wouldn't be frustrating, but good lord this would be an especially dumb one if it holds.

[Cubswin11]

Still feel like we win this game if we hold them to 3
