7/24: Cubs (BDJ is sick of these losers, Chatwood now starting) @ Giants (Beede) 2:45 NBCSCH/MLBN

[Cubswin11]

Well, the Cubs haven't won a road game since some time during spring training so they're due to win a few of them. They're also trying their hardest to win the fewest games possible but still win the division, which is quite economical of them to save some wins for the playoffs. Willy is supposed to be back today, so that gives us a roster of approximately 19 MLB players. So we got all that going for us, which is nice. Edited July 24, 2019 by Cubswin11

well at least this one won't go past midnight

I was told we needed to sell off all our good players for less good players, so it'll be interesting to see who is still around by the time they play today.

I’m ill from watching the last few games.

Garcia has been exposed getting no FB after he hit the ball into the water and they are going to have him at 2nd with a GB pitcher? 0-for-7 with 4 K's since all 87-87 CU with some breaking balls.

[squally1313]

This guy is the best

SONTENSEI HAS RISEN

SONTENSEI HAS RISEN

 

How do you guys remember these old weirdos?

[Schwarber Fan]

With Lester out, this is a sweep. At least Russell’s demotion is progress. Descalso and Almora next, plz.

Yeah, however will we have any chance against a pitcher with a 4.70 ERA (which is apparently lucky, given his FIP).

Whit Merrifield, but of the guys we have available I want Russell who has a .798 OPS in 38 overall starts and is a plus defender.

 

I get people hate Russell, but Theo gave him a contract.

Yup. Add Castellanos over Almora and it's as good an offensive lineup that can be asked for at this point.

Robel better learn to hit change ups and breaking balls that AB wasn't MLB level.

[Derwood]

[NotSoSober]

[Ding Dong Johnson]
