5/27 Cubs (Hamels) @ Astro’s (Cole) WGN 2:10 Eastern

[weis21]

Apologies for the late start. I’m watching my son and haven’t had time to check in today.

 

Last time was the first Cole/Cole (first name) MLB matchup ever. This time it’s Cole Hamels facing off against Gerrit Cole. So that’s kind of weird.

 

Anyways. That’s all I got. Houston is good but banged up. i have no idea if Bryant is going to start though and so maybe they both are to varying degrees.

 

Cubs win 7-3. Go cubs.

So if Cole Hamels and Gerrit Cole got married, you know what happens, right?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yep, Gerrit Hamels

iPhone thinks Astros is Astro’s.

 

Well it did the first time but not now.

WHO THE HELL IS JIM ADDUCI

 

I’m amazed at the amount of Cubs fans who don’t remember him from his stint in the system in the late 2000s. The name always stuck with me.

Anyone know if Schwarber has any historical success against Cole?

Nobody beats the Rizz!

[Sammy Sofa]

Rizzo, you big, "beautiful" bastard.

i 100% guarantee the cubs dont struggle at all to score runs against the Astros, because baseball is baseball

Cubs are averaging 5 runs per game AFTER the 14 run game vs the Nats.

Earliest date Rizzo has hit #15

[BigSlick]

we're never allowed to just take the lead and exert our dominance over a team ever again, huh

[Schwarber Fan]

Career AAA guy gonna kill us the whole series I’m sure.

[NOLA]

Who's hurt?

[Schwarber Fan]

I guess we got what we were gonna get off Cole then. Cool.

[BigSlick]

jesus not a good inning for hitting there

[Schwarber Fan]

Who's hurt?

 

Their catcher and former Cub great Robinson Chirinos.

I have a feeling a LOT of players are going to set personal home run records this year

[Schwarber Fan]

Hamels looks terrible.

[Andy]

We're gonna have a hard time winning if every pop up drops in and every borderline pitch is called a ball
