6/10 - Pirates (Nova) at Cubs (Hendricks) 1:20 CDT WGN

We deserved all this to happen with Joe’s stupidity the last 2 innings and having Javy lead off today

[TMan92]

How to mismanage a baseball game. By Joe Maddon.

We’ll score 1 for sure now. Maybe a Bryant homer.

[Derwood]

I mean, at least we keep taking Hendricks out after 5 IP EVERY SINGLE GAM

[Agony and Ivy]

Luke Farrell on this roster over Hancock is stupefying.

 

Hopefully, he can pitch the rest of the game and we don't have to use anybody else.

 

Joe won’t do it. He’ll burn at least two more relievers.

[Sammy Sofa]

Clearly Joe and David were hanging out together.

[abuck1220]

morrow had two days off, better have him throw 28 pitches today

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I mean, at least we keep taking Hendricks out after 5 IP EVERY SINGLE GAM

 

To be fair, had pinch-hitting for Kyle worked and we put up two or three runs, the bullpen guys we might have used could have made this game a lot different.

[UMFan83]

Not saying it was a good or bad move but the decision to remove Hendricks in the 5th inning has backfired unbelievably

Limiting your pitcher who throws 15mph to 5 IP per start is the new market inefficiency

[Bryants Disco Ball]

We scored nine runs in the 8th inning against the Braves. So a win still is possible.

[UMFan83]

We’ll score 1 for sure now. Maybe a Bryant homer.

Heyward continues to hit, but his body is still falling away at contact. That should have been a dong. He basically muscled the ball to deep rCF.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

KB and Schwarber aren't seeing Nova very well today.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Rob Burgundy well that escalated quickly.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Scoring a run after they add 5 was predictable.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

At least the Brewers and Cardinals lost. Plus Carlos Martínez might be toast.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

A guy on Mooney's Twitter said the Yu puns are lazy and borderline racist. I can understand the lazy possibility. But how is it racist?

[CyHawk_Cub]

Really, it's simply paying homage to his heritage.

It’s not racist. People make puns on anybody’s name.

That's what I was thinking. It was a weird thought by this gentleman.

[BigSlick]

I dunno, I'm not really mad at any of Joe's moves today. Just needed to execute better. I guess you coulda kept Kyle in for another inning. Shrug.

 

EDIT: I mean i hate Javy leading off but I don't see that as a 'move' as much

[CubinNY]

File this one in the, can't win them all category.

 

Huge series in beer town. Time to dash the hope of all Wisconson.

[BigSlick]

Yeah Brewers and then Cardinals. a 7 game win streak would be cool
