6/27 Braves (Wilson) @ Cubs (Chatwood) 1:20 CDT NBCSN

[We Got The Whole 9]

I am far too nervous about Kimbrel facing the team with the most information on him

He hasn't pitched for the Braves in like 7 years

That doesn't change my mind

[UMFan83]

Time to decide if we love Kimbrel 3000 or we hate him forever.

[Sammy Sofa]

That beard is weird, and the no 'stache is trash.

There are 2 position players in this game that were on the Braves the last time Kimbrel pitched for them, and one of them is Jason Heyward

to be fair, they just pinch hit the other one

[Brian]

98mph on the 1st

[badger]

I don't recall the last time a pitcher for the Cubs threw 98mph. Is this allowed?

[HawkeTrackler]

That has to be the fastest pitch from a Cubs pitcher since 2016

[Sammy Sofa]

Those are some spicy termaters.

[BigSlick]

brian mccann is a big dumb racist red ass

how dare you disrespect James Norwood

[squally1313]

Give him the hook!

yeah pretty sure he may have hit 100 in a game

[BigSlick]

that was a good pitch and that was a good start to his career as a cub

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Ump got caught up in the moment

[badger]

To be fair, I bet Kimbrell is too.

[Andy]

Vic earned that one with the frame

[Old Style]

Eh, close enough. :)

[UMFan83]

I was about to give Willson props for stealing his first strike of the season but then I remembered Caratini is in the game.

[UMFan83]

Perfect situation for Kimbrel's debut. Have them face the soft tossing Cubs pitching staff for almost 4 games and then bring in someone throwing 98. It must look like 115 mph to them.

[BigSlick]

this Ronald Acuna guy is also a huge pain in my ass

[Transmogrified Tiger]

I don't want to be overly dramatic but I don't think it's too much to ask to put Acuna and Albies in jail for never making an out against the Cubs

[Brian]

all i ask is for freeman not to come up as the go ahead run

[squally1313]

Everyone get their Starlin phew gif ready....
