This is where a team 40 under needs to mail this horsefeathers in.

JD is on a roll lately with the DP calls.

Willson, Addy, and Almora are killing us.

 

Wilson batting .280/.357/.480 last 7, .280/.368/.440 last 14

 

edit: or you mean just tonight?

 

Willy has struggled all year with RISP. Obviously a lot of Cubs do but he raised expectations last year.

get 6 and let Chatwood close it out

Chatwood should only be used to pinch run for a semi-injured player late in a game or to pitch if the Cubs are down by double digits at any point in a game.

addison russell hasn't hit a line drive in at least 4 months

[Brian]

HOLY horsefeathers

[BigSlick]

HOLY horsefeathers

i was wondering if someone hit a home run or something but this is merely for a 4 pitch walk for Almora, which, to be fair, is basically a half miracle

[Cubswin11]

addison russell hasn't hit a line drive in at least 4 months

He did like 3 innings ago

[Cubswin11]

Lol at JD dropping an audible “wow” on the Almora walk

[Irrelevant Dude]

If Rizzo misses that hit and run pitch, Almora gets thrown out by 37 feet.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Baez to 2nd or out of the game? Gameday just has Bote for Baez straight up.

[TMan92]

Ok royals. Just quit

[BigSlick]

i appreciate the royals for basically giving up

looks like straight up, hopefully they just don't want our entire offense to play in this rain

[PackLandVA]

Petey is dealing!

[BigSlick]

remember when alcides escobar was a big time prospect? anyway, now he's one of the worst players in the league

[BigSlick]

They wanted nothing to do with the 9th

According to Cubs radio, Baez was at 2nd.
