4/20: D-backs (Greinke) @ Cubs (Darvish) 1:20 on ABC7

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I'm willing to chalk that one up as a win for KB.

[Schwarber Fan]

2 true ground rule doubles in consecutive days at Wrigley? I remember maybe one in the previous decade.

[BigSlick]

I liked Darvish better when he was an injured unknown

 

Now he’s alive but sucks, which is worse

[Sammy Sofa]

Way to swing at a bunch of garbage, Rizzo.

[BigSlick]

I don’t care what the numbers say, I don’t care if there’s “evidence” to the contrary, the Cubs are the worst team in the history of sports to score after a lead off double

[Derwood]

Strike Two to Peralta was some sort of whiffle ball magic horsefeathers

[CubinNY]

This is a boring ass game.

[Derwood]

Who is Allen Webster and why is he pitching?

[CubinNY]

Putting out the fire with gasoline

[BigSlick]

This is a crummy way to lose the win streak (I guess there’s no non-crummy way to lose a game)

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Considering we don't have a real backup catcher of any quality, these are the games where I would take Willy out and give him some sort of rest for the last three innings.

[jersey cubs fan]

I’d rather eat a greasy pork sandwich served in a dirty ash tray than watch this team.

why is it chatwood and not Quintana tomorrow?

Because LA vs LHP or AZ vs RHP

AZ rakes against LHP so they wanted a righty and Chatwood is the only option.

seems desperate and dumb

It may be dumb, don’t see how desperation is involved.

they've been really talking up chatwood so far this season, and I dont know if they'd be doing this if he wasnt still owed a bunch of money. it seems like they're trying to force him into getting starts to see if we can salvage some value. I'd rather just use the real starters and try to win the series. if he is the 6th best option in the rotation, he will get a chance eventually.

It’s playing matchups and getting Q, and every starter, extra rest.

[BigSlick]

Can’t we offer Tyler Chatwood to R’hllor, the Red God, for favorable winds and the favor of the One True God?

I think you mean inspired and brilliant
