Almora is really bad at the plate. In case you didn’t know.

If Descalso requires DL time, I hope Happ is called up, has success, and eventually takes over for Almora.

[weis21]

The Gyrko store called and they ran out of soft infield groundouts.

[weis21]

I’m delayed in this comment, but why the hell - if Almora simply must start - is he hitting before Schwarber?

 

ETA: against a RHP

[Transmogrified Tiger]

did Joe Buck just say John Gant has electric stuff

[Andy]

With full knowledge of the fact that hitting 97 mph fastballs is crazy hard, why was everyone so late on them all inning when that was literally all he threw?

[David]

Gonna just leave this here

 

[Schwarber Fan]

Just get Wong. F this noise.

[Schwarber Fan]

Cishek has been super erratic this inning.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Teetering on a major collapse on what looked like an easy inning.

[Old Style]

Cmon, Cishek. WTF?

[soccer10k]

Get out of this, Steve.

[Andy]

Not a great time for 7/31/16 Cishek to emerge

[soccer10k]

Phew.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

What a bizarre performance by Steve.

[Old Style]

Let’s get some runs! [/Dead Harry Caray]

[weis21]

If the cubs lose this game (they won’t) they should be ashamed. Bases loaded jams, Taylor Davis GS, Yu was terrible, Dex gifted them the first run, etc.

[soccer10k]

Thought Heyward was going to beat that out.

[weis21]

I’m calling a KB HR

[Old Style]

Oh, hey. This pitcher gave up a Game 7 HR to David Ross in his last career AB.

[Old Style]

For fucks sake. That was not a strike.

I actually think it would be the other way around.

Well that’s splitting hairs.

Definitely feels as though we’d be stealing one if we win but to lose a game with a Taylor David grand slam would feel a tad wasteful too
