5/16 Cubs (Chatwood) @ Braves (McCarthy) 6:35 WGN

Are you happy with one win on the road against the best team in the National League?

 

I'm not.

 

Win.

[PackLandVA]

McCarthy has sucked in his two May starts. May the suck continue.

Rain Rain go away.

[Agony and Ivy]

Over/under on Chatwood walks is 5.5. Place your bets.

I'll take the over before the end of the 3rd inning.

Rain Rain go away.

I'm a couple hours east, but the forecast across all of Georgia has been the same all day... 60-80 percent chance of rain/thunderstorms every hour since about noon. It was enough for my friend and me to cancel our afternoon of golf.

 

Not a drop of rain all day. It's been sunny and hot. I think the forecasters got today wrong, and I think they get this one in. (Still... two hours east tho.)

[CyHawk_Cub]

When the braves demand a new stadium in a few years, they should have the foresight to coerce enough financing to put on a retractable roof. People are saying it rains quite a bit down yonder.

[Agony and Ivy]

KB is something else.

[Agony and Ivy]

Don't be a loser Anthony.

Rizzo is awful my god. How does someone go from what he was to absolute garbage?

He has a 1.056 OPS in May.

I don't actually think he's awful. He's actually hitting the ball harder this year than he ever has so I'm sure it'll turn around but his approach has sucked.

Yeah everything in his underlying numbers/skills is fine.

[Agony and Ivy]

I hope we keep throwing balls down the middle to Albies and Acuna.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Will someone please lock Ozzie Albies in a closet or something, this is approaching Nieuwenheisian levels.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

I wish we had some good pitchers.

[Agony and Ivy]

The Giants bounced pitches to the Braves all series and swept them. So we try to trick them with balls down the middle. Genius really. Of course, Chatwood could have been aiming at any of the corners of the zone.

[Jaxbro]

Win turds

 

But alas the Braves should have been taking pledges for their impending walk-a-thon

[ScrubMD]

I wish Schwarber would stop sucking again.

[Agony and Ivy]

Inciarte can eat horsefeathers.

[Bobson Dugnutt]

man, happ blows

[Cubswin11]

I thought Russell’s ball was going off the wall if not out

[Bobson Dugnutt]

Albert!!!!!!

[Agony and Ivy]

Happ should never play CF again.
