5/19 Cubs (Hendricks) @ Nationals (Hellickson) 6:05 ESPN

[Sammy Sofa]

Is it time to give Albert some credit?

Nah. I’m glad he’s doing well and getting results, but he’s still basically the same horsefeathers hitter he’s always been and like he was when he had that hot 1-2 months last year. The underlying stuff is still ugly (still not taking walks, still not hitting the ball hard often enough, still hitting too man GBs, still K’ing too much for being a contact guy, etc.).

 

Yeah, it's fun when he gets these rando big hits, but they're still surrounded by a sea of butt.

RIZZO SMASH

[Cubswin11]

Nobody beats the Rizz

[Old Style]

Crooked number, plz.

[Tim]

Great job, ump

[Derwood]

Great job, ump

 

ESPN described him as "pitcher friendly". Why not just "he sucks at calling pitches"?

 

I'll never figure out why EVERYONE is afraid of criticizing officials in sports

[Gilby]

That's such a shitty call on Heyward

[Cubswin11]

horsefeathers off ump, not a strike and he called a pitch in the same spot like 3 pitches earlier a ball.

[We Got The Whole 9]

If you go through the public relations disaster of bringing Russell back at least play the pud over Descalso.

Not gonna be popular around here but, this.

[Schwarber Fan]

Get ready for full time Addison Russell!

[Tim]

oh hell...be okay Javy

[Schwarber Fan]

Please be ok, Javy

[bcl412]

Hope he rolled an ankle and not pulled a muscle

[Schwarber Fan]

He’s a warrior

[itisallpartoftheplan]

MF’ing Javy charging barehanding across body throwing all while he’s getting ready to spit seeds out. Lmao

 

 

P.s. don’t be hurt please.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Why was he playing so deep on Hellickson?

[Forgotmyoldlogin]

Just get Javy outta there. Let him take the rest of the night off. Kyle’s got this.

[Bertz]

Why was he playing so deep on Hellickson?

 

With a pitcher running pretty much anything that doesn't get past him is gonna be an out.

[NotSoSober]

So Hendricks is definitely throwing a perfect game tonight

[NotSoSober]

Maybe Jersey Shore Almora IS a real thing?

[Old Style]

Apparently Kyle is human.

[bcl412]

Throw a perfect game and score in every inning

[bcl412]

Not impossible that was on purpose

[Schwarber Fan]

Screw the perfect game I want someone drilled

[CyHawk_Cub]

Vasgersian w/ some cringe-worthy commentary that inning.
