Almora is bollocks Edited August 9, 2019 by Derwood

[Schwarber Fan]

If all things continue as they are right now, I don’t think you can justify putting Almora on a playoff roster. Especially with Zobrist coming back.

[Derwood]

 

Heyward is 0-for-3 tonight and he came in with a line of .164/.203/.393/.597 leading off this year.

 

I know, you’ve made about a hundred posts about it in the past two days

 

I must need to post it more with idiots like you who still think he's been good there because he hit a couple leadoff HR

 

Find where I said he has been good at lead off.

 

Also, you don’t know what lead off means

[UMFan83]

Heyward clearly isn't the answer to the leadoff question

 

If Happ keeps it up they’ll probably go back to him. And in a playoff series it should be Zobrist.

 

Heyward told Joe that if he puts him at leadoff to have patience meaning stick with him if he struggles to begin with.

Lucroy reinvigorated!

[Brian]

who will be NL MVP Castellanos or Lucroy??

[Schwarber Fan]

LuCroy!!

[Edith Cox]

Lucroy out here telling people to Edith Cox

[Bryants Disco Ball]

Hot take or nah? He's legit already way more valuable than Taylor Davis.........and he might end up getting the most playing time of the catching duo.

[Brian]

BTW, it is High A but Zobrist is apparently able to hit more than singles now

Did Chatwood just throw 99?

[Brian]

call the game now

[We Got The Whole 9]

Chatwood has been really good since the calendar flipped to July. Used sparingly but the numbers are really nice.

[Derwood]

Thom finally pronouncing Nick's name correctly. Someone must have tipped him off

[Edith Cox]

Off Topic, but in AAA last night Durham no-hit Syracuse. Tonight Syracuse is trying to return the favor as they have a perfect game after 7 in Durham.

[UMFan83]

Maybe we should use an opener for Chatwood

[Schwarber Fan]

Big props to Chatwood.

[bcl412]

I’m nervous about normal cubs bullpen holding this lead. Broken, injured cubs pen gives less confidence so score at least 6 more please

[Brian]

DA HAPPSTER

The crying Thom must be doing over Happ right now just be delicious.
