[Irrelevant Dude]

[itisallpartoftheplan]

The whole team giving Maddon crap about not batting Javy earlier

Let Chatwood pitch

[PackLandVA]

Let Chatwood pitch

 

Ummmm, NO!!

[itisallpartoftheplan]

If we somehow lose at least we can raise our runs per game in losses average.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Nobody in that bullpen can suck it up and pitch an inning to keep the star closer available tomorrow rather than pitching him in a 6 run game?

[ScrubMD]

I want Maddon to not be the manager anymore.

[imb]

so now morrow is in?

[CaliforniaRaisin]

I thought they were using kid gloves on Morrow?

[Andy]

It's super 2018 Cubs that we effortlessly scored 6 runs after all of that, but this is a big win.

[TMan92]

Hopefully the Mets just want to go to bed

By the time Baez hit the HR he was probably hot enough that there’s not much difference in sitting him down. Let him slam the door and you still have everyone else for tomorrow.

[imb]

morrow is gonna throw 27 pitches or something idiotic

[Tryptamine]

I'm conflicted, I'm happy the Cubs are probably going to pull this one out, but now I have to hear horsefeathers about how "Maddon was right" with it being said without sarcasm.

Rizzo offered to pitch. Javy should have tried to get the same deal from Joe before he hit.

[Brian]

Farrell's plane ticket has probably already been purchased

[BigSlick]

this is one of the rare times i actually want ot watch the press conference after the game so i can hear joe defend himself

[Jaxbro]

Well Morrow was already warming up so I had to use him now or lose him tonight and tomorrow so it was simple and wise to have Marrow pitch in this situation.

 

Man I can Joe Madden with the best of them

[Andy]

I'm assuming this was going to count as a day having pitched anyway like the 17 inning Miami game so he might as well come in
