5/26 Reds (Roark) at Cubs (Q) 1:20 WGN

[philosophizer75]

Keep beating the Reds. Even, and especially, if they're a playoff caliber team. Beat everyone.

 

Go Cubs!

[Schwarber Fan]

Time to dong this Roark clown who always has our number.

I believe the Reds are, officially, now the most annoying team in the NL Central. The Pirates are bad, we’ve spanked the Cardinals, and the Brewers are legitimately good but we’ll spank em again soon. The Reds are better than they’ve been but horsefeathers them

I'm not even close to feeling this way. It's Brewers all the way with the Cardinals a little behind.

[UMFan83]

Since when do we play games on Sunday afternoon?

Since when do we play games on Sunday afternoon?

Since GoT ended

Oh God, its Descalso. We know he's not as good as last season but he can't possibly be as bad as this season, right?

 

Actually in 2015 he was. He actually can be this bad.

[muntjack]

Descalso watch: Since the 19th of April (85 PA) Daniel has an OBP% of .190, a wOBA of .177 and a wRC+ of 3. That's about as bad as it gets.

[soccer10k]

Off to a great start.

[Schwarber Fan]

horsefeathers this. Not going to waste my day on this nonsense.

[bcl412]

At least we play the Astros next

[BigSlick]

God damn Q at least give your team a chance

[bcl412]

Eh coulda been worse and we can hit so we’ll take a lead before the bullpen screws it up

[BigSlick]

Ok all told that minimized potential damage.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

This smells like a 13-5 victory! Or that could just be my neighbor’s Mediterranean food.

[TMan92]

Just play the moron. Descalso is a butcher

[We Got The Whole 9]

I'd rather see what Dixon Machado cam give us at this point

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Gonna be one of those days.

[NWICubsFan]

Yeah. I'm done with this game. 5 hits thru 3 with 0 runs. 3 straight hits and get thrown out at the plate. I'm gonna enjoy my Sunday doing other things...

[UMFan83]

Does Suarez ever horsefeathering make outs?

 

Season vs the Cubs:

 

.500/.500/.818 in 26 PA

[We Got The Whole 9]

So we ever score against Roark?

[UMFan83]

Javy was thrown 8 balls and 0 strikes in that AB abut of course he strikes out swinging

[TMan92]

LOL Edwards

[Schwarber Fan]

This team is really a mess right now. Could be an ugly series in houston.

[UMFan83]

Well it’s looking like the Cubs will drop this one. Moves them to 8-8 since the schedule started getting tougher. Which is perfectly fine (playoff teams routinely have stretches like this) but their level of play has certainly dropped off of late.

 

Whatever magic the Cubs coaching staff used on the pitching has worn off. They had that 1-6 stretch and almost every pitcher sucked. Then they had a hot streak where almost every pitcher was great. Now they are back to most of the staff struggling, though not quite as bad as the 1-6 start
