4/19: D-backs (Kelly) @ Cubs (Hendricks) 1:20 on CSC and MLBN

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Then he goes and does that..........also Willy needed to be tagging. Dude would have scored if the ball would have fallen anyway.

Bad decision by Willy

[Sammy Sofa]

I'm still going to sort of count that as the Cubs again not doing well with guys on third and less than two out.

Cubs are hitting .288 with RISP this year which is 7th best in MLB, 4th best OBP and the 10th best OPS

 

Just sticking up for my boy, Sofa.

 

Whut.

[Cubswin11]

That’s really dumb base running, Willy

You often point out (I think correctly, too) that we suck with runners on third and less than two outs. So, I was just reminding people.

 

Sorry for the confusion.

[Sammy Sofa]

Oh.

[We Got The Whole 9]

In my mind, Willy and Heyward hit bombs today. What were the EVs on those batted balls?

Willy was like 97, Heyward was 101.

Hmm, felt like they were much better than that

[bcl412]

I think the wind is in the dbacks head on both offense and defense

[Transmogrified Tiger]

who else involuntarily said "don't you do it" to the screen when it looked like Bryant might try to slide into first

[weis21]

This ump sucks

[Cubswin11]

This ump sucks

That 1-1 call on KB was horrible

[Cubswin11]

This ump has a concussion I think

[We Got The Whole 9]

This catcher must be the best framer in the game. These calls are atrocious.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Wow. What a triple.

[Gilby]

This umpire has completely lost track of where the bottom of the zone is. Willy has already pushed a couple of borderline pitches to the dirt. Today is the day not to do that.

[Sammy Sofa]

That's the stuff.

CW11 may be right; he could be concussed.

[Cubswin11]

Yeah I’m very much for getting Haniger. He can play CF as well.

 

Yeah, gotta hope Theo values that flexibility enough to give up players He is developing. It seems unlikely but it would be cool

 

Gj Rizzo

Yeah I mean it probably takes some combination of Happ, Amaya, Marquez, Adbert, and Ademan to get him. I’m fine with giving up some combination there. But it’s gonna be costly.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Not a great day at the plate from Ednel, but he can't always be great.

Yeah he took a FB right to the face in the 2nd inning. I think he’s messed up.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Making him throw 109 pitches in 4 innings lol
