Where the dongmeter at?

[Sammy Sofa]

Why is his haircut.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Oh horsefeathers yes KB is back! Woooooo

[Cubfanintheknow]

Anyone else yelling "Don't hurt the shoulder!!!" as KB headed toward the plate?

[squally1313]

I sound 60 years old, but please go inside and get a horsefeathering towel.

[UMFan83]

Sure KB could have poked one to RF against the shift but he knew the run differential was more important

Yes, horsefeathering Almora was all over his shoulder/back and then the Gatorade jugs around him. Keep away from our beautiful boy idiots

[NotSoSober]

Kris Bryant is back to being Kris Bryant, and that is a magnificent thing

[Bryants Disco Ball]

I still don't think he's getting $300 million, but the final number went up $1 million tonight.

[Perd]

3 straight games with a dong for KB. Me like.

Take that Dodgers or Yankees

Prime Bryzzo plus a fully realized Javy and Willson?

 

[Old Style]

Seems like the Chili stink has finally worn off our dreamy slugger.

[BCVM22]

Highlight, highlight here, highlight.

 

[TarzanJoeWallis]

Highlight, highlight here, highlight.

 

I always appreciate you doing this, but extra kudos today for making your usual post singular, since there was only one highlight. Well done.

Yeah, that combined with healthy Zobrist, fixed JHey, and normal seasons from other guys is pretty exciting. I'm inclined to shoot Almora into the sun, but even he's shown signs in the last week of not being terrible.

I'd love for J-Hey to be fixed, but I do fear that he's slowly going to be coming back to normal J-Hey where slugging .400 is difficult.

[Sammy Sofa]

Eh; Heyward's been pretty meh at best again for a while now.

 

Last 4 weeks: .246 .383 .354 .737 (.294 BAbip)

Last 2 weeks: .216 .326 .297 .623 (.286 BAbip)

 

He's a career .300 BAbip guy, so....yeah.

 

I suggest you do not look at his splits over the last week.

[jersey cubs fan]

oh andy, you came and your brought me a turkey on my vacation away from worky

 

where's the new thread?

He was due for a bit of a crash, even if he’s “fixed.” He does seem to be facing lefties more which is also probably playing a role.

Game moved up to 6:35 tonight, fwiw. There’s rain in the forecast.
