8/6 Cubs (Hamels) @ Royals (Juris) 7:15 PM CDT

[TMan92]

give that russell guy a series or 2 off

 

He needs to sit Addy like he sat Starlin.

[UMFan83]

When does our schedule get easier?

[Schwarber Fan]

Losers.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Is there a worse hitter than Addison Russell right now?

 

Alcides Escobar?

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Somebody let me know when Addy's career numbers get to the point where I can correctly call him crappy.

he sucks and you are right to hate him

[TMan92]

The ability of our offense to make shitty pitching look good and our pitching to make shitty offense look good is impressive.

[Sammy Sofa]

Addison has been nursing a sub-.570 OPS for a good 5+ weeks now, yet already has a 2.3 bWAR and and a 2.0 fWAR.

 

On the one hand, he's not actually this bad. On the hand...all glove/no hit middle infielders are the lamest horsefeathering thing in the world no matter how much value they bring. It's like rooting for a nerd. A NERD.

[UMFan83]

The Royals have won 13 of their last 53 games FYI

If we don’t put an offense out there that can beat teams into submission we aren’t going very far this year

Everyone steps up against the Cubs. I like that narrative.

53 game stretches mean nothing. NOTHING.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

old man river with the legs

[Sammy Sofa]

GO, OLD MAN, GO!

[Ding Dong Johnson]

DONG this fool already

[PackLandVA]

Stop complaining. The Cubs have best record in the NL and are in first place. All is well.

[UMFan83]

Apparently this dude is the only one that got the scouting report that you don’t ever have to throw a strike to Javy. 2 awful ABs from him tonight

[We Got The Whole 9]

JFC Javy, when did either of those pitches look hittable

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Please just make sure to get one, guys.

[soccer10k]

Javy with some quality ABs tonight.

[Schwarber Fan]

Javy, man. Understand the situation.

[Sammy Sofa]

Oh, Baez.

[Derwood]

That was some vintage Javy

[Cubswin11]

Nice lineup Joe
