5/20/2018 - chicago (farid) @ THE ‘NATI (MAHLE) 1210 hrs (CDT) on ABC7

[PackLandVA]

I’m not fooled. Fake start of win streak. Too many runs and hits Saturday night. So that means they’re fuqued against a guy few have heard of. Farid looks awesome and yet struggles....again.

 

Embrace the suck.

so the reds decided to sign cubs former hitting coach to start this game? he knows all their tendencies. that's next level smart

 

[d_money]

Prediction: Yu comes out dealing, going 6+. Cubs win 5-2.

[Jaxbro]

Win turds

But alas it’s tyler frighten mahle. And Tyler ain’t afraid of no Bryantless lineup

[PackLandVA]

The weather in Chicago has been like the Cubs this season. Temps mostly below normal with an occasional up tick. And just when there's a few days strung together of what you'd expect for the given month - WHAM! Just like today, back to crap.

 

I hope Farid doesn't have a tummy ache by the third inning.

Rizzo seems to be making a ton of horsefeathers contact in 2-0 and 3-0, 3-1, etc counts lately

I do need feel good about this game.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Because we won last night?

Just figured I knew how Yu were thinking.

[dfnowak]

Maybe the first inning will be the meltdown inning.

[CyHawk_Cub]

I have no clue what a "Blandino" is, but walking him to leadoff the inning might not lead to a great result.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Just give up a grand slam so I can get on with my day. Yu suck Yu.

darvish is ass again

[Derwood]

Brenneman won’t shut up about how long Darvish goes between pitches. He’s acting like it personally offends him

[Agony and Ivy]

Love not having Addison there.

[Cubswin11]

Javy is ass at SS

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Somehow Yu limited the damage.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Is Willson calling pitches? A FB outside was an incredible bad pitch choice on a 1-2 count with a guy who was starting to better time up the FB.

 

I don’t understand why the Cubs have made Yu scrap his splitter.

You should have heard the Cardinals guys talking about Odubel. He's singlehandedly ruining baseball according to McCarver.

[javy knows my name]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that was a routine play for Addison

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Can’t suck in the 5th if yu reach 100 pitches by the 3rd.

[Agony and Ivy]

I was just about to mention this. Just bring Gimenez up and let him catch Yu. Contreras is awful for him, because a guy with Yu's stuff and lack of command needs a framer and someone who can call a game.

Had to fix my original post.

40 pitch 1st the afternoon after playing a doubleheader nice.

 

Thankfully Q managed to keep the pen rested most in game 2.
