7/3 - schlubs (darvish) @ Pirates (maybe Archer) 6:05p on CSNCH

[PackLandVA]

Is it really around to me to start a game thread already?!? Sheesh!

 

Well, “schlubs” Yep, that pretty much describes them. Their play of late has been pretty piss-poor. Yu is going for the schlubs. He’s never won at home. But the game is on the road. Won’t matter, he’ll have a 90+ pitch count by the end of the 4th inning and most likely get a no decision.

 

The Vaunted Pirates (every schlubs opponent team name should be preceded by “vaunted”) are supposed to have former schlub prospect Chris Archer going. He was injured in his last start and exited. So who knows? I actually hope he pitches. The schlubs have a better shot at success against him as opposed to the “guy making his first MLB start”.

 

Of course, the Bucs could always throw Adam Frazier on the mound. He’s dominated at the plate so far this series with 9 hits in 10 ABs. Why not let him try to dominate on the mound as well. I’d consider having Yu throw at him, ya know, to send the message that Frazier’s too comfortable at the plate. But it would probably take Yu 4 or 5 pitches to hit him. And I’d hate to add to his already soaring pitch count.

 

Just lose schlubs so I don’t have to start another game thread from my phone.

Looks like Viceland has a 2 hour block of It's Always Sunny. WGN-A has a Last Man Standing marathon, for you weirdos in the back.

We had Cookie Monster on the home stand. This is now fitting....

The Brewers and Cards suck just as much as we do.

We’re catching a heater real soon here. We’ll be 4-7 games up at end of July.

Good news! Caratini, Russell and Almora all in tonights lineup with Bryant out

 

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Willy in the OF. Nice.

 

The lineup sucks. But it doesn't really matter. It sucks no matter the configuration.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Cute, Joe. Real cute.

[Cubswin11]

That certainly is a lineup

Going to great lengths to avoid Descalso. Just be done with it.

Screw you ninnies, Cubs are ROLLING tonight. 10-2.

[Old Style]

Who was the guy on here crying for Robel Garcia to be called up?

[TMan92]

Every game starts the same

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Phase 1, complete: "Our first innings have been horrible. We’re seemingly going down 1-2-3 without a fight with less than 10 pitches."

[itisallpartoftheplan]

2 strikeouts and a grounder to the right side. Same horsefeathers, different night.

[TMan92]

Solo dong. Check.
