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

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Making him throw 109 pitches in 4 innings lol

 

Even better. Just 3 2/3.

[bcl412]

This is 2016 cubs this game. If the pitching wants to hold up that’d be cool

[NotSoSober]

Making him throw 109 pitches in 4 innings lol

Like the 2016 team. Beautiful

[UMFan83]

Not complaining because we're winning by multiple runs but 10 LOB in 4 innings is pretty wild considering the most you can leave on base in 4 innings is 12.

[TMan92]

Why did Descalso throw that ball?

[Aaron_Kennelly]

[UMFan83]

 

The Brewers are getting more vaunted by the minute

[Sammys Boombox]

7 BB + 3 1B + 2 2B + 3B + WP + 0 CS + 0 DP + 0 TOOTBLAN = 3 R and 10 LOB in 4 innings. Cool.

What in the horsefeathering world is going on with all of that.

[cl smooth]

7 BB + 3 1B + 2 2B + 3B + WP + 0 CS + 0 DP + 0 TOOTBLAN = 3 R and 10 LOB in 4 innings. Cool.

 

It was my understanding there would be no math.

[Derwood]

This team is winning 100 games. You are all ninnies, the lot of ya

[bcl412]

Go back to hating them. You’re all messing with a good thing

[Bertz]

I was slow to adopt Bote as anything more than a deluxe Jeff Baker, but I think at this point I am pretty all-in He's kept the "hit he horsefeathers out of the ball" trait he showed last year but has thus far been far more patient. Add in his defense and I think he's a legit starting caliber player, maybe more if he starts hitting the ball in the air a little more.

[Sammy Sofa]

Zambrano's going full reverse-season 2 Kenny Powers? Love it.

[NotSoSober]

Can't wait until fat rested Zambrano comes in to save this bullpen. I'd also like to see him take an at-bat one last time

He will pull a Travis Wood and hit a playoff dong

[We Got The Whole 9]

10 horsefeathering Ks hell yeah Kyle

I don't want to jinx this, so no one stone me if we lose, but who predicted that we'd get to 10 wins before 10 losses when we were 1-6?

Pretty sure that was Cubswin11 being all baller.

[Cubswin11]

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.

 

Yeah basically a starting OF, the future starting C, Lester’s future replacement, a potential TOR starter, and a potential Jimmy Rollins type for an aging OF getting more expensive albeit still under control

 

That said, I think they get 3 of those guys, maybe one is Almora or Schwarber, and the rest are more Cory Abbott, Keegan Thompson, Michael Ruckery, Trent Giambrone, Roederer, Velazquez etc-ish

I’m fine giving up anyone of those names, I’d like to keep Schwarber and he doesn’t seem like he’d fit with them either given age/team control. Basically Nico, Roederer and Davis are off the table for me and I’d try like crazy to keep Amaya.

It was and you all are cowards who didn’t believe.

El Mago

[Sammy Sofa]

That's what you get for taking so horsefeathering long between pitches, dick.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Nick Ahmed he is Javy Baez and you are Nick Ahmed, he is better at that than you
