6/21/19 Metropolitans (Vargas) @ Cubs (YooHoo) - 1:20p on NBC Sports Chicago

[Schwarber Fan]

Add this to the list of games given away. This team just refuses to pull away. The Brewers slump will end soon.

[TMan92]

6 hits and two from the pitcher. F this stupid offense.

[CubinNY]

Very winnable game.

[Derwood]

Heyward stands so far off the plate that he and Rizzo could bat at the same time

[We Got The Whole 9]

Heyward stands so far off the plate that he and Rizzo could bat at the same time

But then Rizzo would die

He would ground his head out to second.

after that TOOTBLAN, probably doesn't deserve to live

[badger]

He's been TOOTBLANNING his whole life. I don't know what makes this one any different.

Rizzo's TOOTBLAN and Heyward's anti-power, together at last.

Darvish pitching equal to the offensive performance each game.

 

Either giving up runs after we score or shutting them down when we don’t.

[UMFan83]

Speaking of our pen, Dallas Kuechel is starting for the Braves tonight. How did he get ready quicker than Kimbrel?

[Sammy Sofa]

Duke should return to writing front page article with a horsefeathering master's thesis about the myriad of ways that hitting Descalso for Darvish was cartoonishly stupid. Maddon gets himself outmanaged WAY too horsefeathering easily these days, even by his usual standards.

If Theo and Jed didn’t go personally talk to Joe about the stupidity of that move and the trickle down effects they better of at least sent one of the FO nerds to go explain it to Joe and why it was dumb and bad.

[17 Seconds]

losing all these close games is horsefeathering killing us

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Speaking of our pen, Dallas Kuechel is starting for the Braves tonight. How did he get ready quicker than Kimbrel?

 

Because they only have him for three months, so they need to rush it.

[Bryants Disco Ball]

If somebody has time, can they explain the reasons why everyone is so frustrated and/or mad about today's game? Like, what were the moves? Did we blow some great situations late? Didn't see the game.

 

Also, Schwarbs seems like a good kid on here. But it feels like he go over the top all the time with his statements.

You’ve been on this board a decade and you’re just now realizing this?

It's an excellent and fair counterpoint. But I swear I've never noticed it this bad before, but maybe I did so much complaining in the past that I didn't even realize it.

 

Just in the past few weeks, we've had:

 

This is the worst loss of the year.

This is a bad, bad loss.

The season is over. (I might be making this one up or exaggerating, but I don't think so)

We have to win the last two games against Colorado or we will be several games out of first place by Monday.

 

He must just really treat every game like it's the NFL and there are only 16 of them.

[CubInOK]

Descalso hits like a pitcher, so using him as a PH is pointless. It’s even worse when the pitcher being pulled could have thrown another inning.

[soccer10k]

Well at least the Brewers lost so that's good. Would be nice to pull away from them a bit but at least we're still 1.5 up. Cards only 2 back now though.

[bcl412]

I’m kinda low key hoping we back into the playoffs and win the World Series with a dumb, baseball gonna baseball 2006 Cardinals type run
