8/19 Cubs (Quintana) at Pirates (Taillon): 12:35 PM on ABC7

I turned it off and just following via this thread. What did Russell do?

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Is it weird that I have such an extreme aversion to watching other teams walk off the Cubs that I turn games off when the opponent is batting and then switch back if the Cubs come back up?

out of all the weird things about you, this is one of them

Got picked off third by the catcher, but the Cubs were probably calling for a squeeze.

[Bull]

Meatball take but im officially done with Addison Russell. My hot take is that hes an idiot on and off the field, makes zero adjustments and will likely keep sucking.

 

Also why in the horsefeathers was Contreras bunting. Absolutely disgusting.

Because he’s hitting like a pitcher since the break.

He got a double and took third on a bounced ball (actually good)! Then Willy was trying to bunt for some stupid horsefeathering reason and the Pirates pitched out and he was too far off third and got thrown out. Awful baserunning and awareness and just Joe being a horsefeathering idiot with the bunting again.

Thank God.

3-0 pitch to a guy 5 foot 2

[Ding Dong Johnson]

cobs suck

 

[Gilby]

Never acquire a reliever midseason again

[TMan92]

Kintzler has been quite the pickup

[Schwarber Fan]

I will vomit if the Cardinals end up winning the division.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Soft contact

[jehr]

I really wouldn't be upset if they released Kintzler. He's terrible. Give him to the Brewers or Dodgers. He'll help us by hurting them.

[Derwood]

Still in first place, guys, everything is fine. I'm sure scoring 1 run per game is going to suffice moving forward

He turned out to be the big winner today.

Oh well, lucky to get the split. Get rested up on the off day and take care of the Tigers and Reds this week. Should’ve and could’ve been better but 5 up in the L column. I’ll take it

Oh, I get it. This is a quote taken from an Onion story.

[Sammys Boombox]

Baseball is stupid I never want to watch again (Tuesday this week).

[TMan92]

This is all Sofa’s fault

[Andy]

I didn't want to flat-out say it yesterday, but the hell with it, Kintzler horsefeathering sucks.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

6 of 7 games the offense 1 homer or shutout. Embarrassing.

[17 Seconds]

remember when we had good players

[UMFan83]

We did it! 4 straight games of only 1 solo HR each.

 

Record setting Cubs offense!

[TMan92]

remember when we had good players

 

We fired two coaches because our pitchers didn’t throw strikes and we were bad at situational hitting. Pitching is worse and situational hitting isn’t better. So, is it the coaches or the players?

@mojo needs to share stories of the scintillating Cubs baseball he witnessed this weekend.
