7/25/20 - Brewers (Burnes) @ CUBS (Darvish) - 12:05 CDT - FOX

The 2020 Cubs:

 

[Bertz]

 

Burnes has massive L/R splits, so good on Rossy here

I love having 2 switch hitters in the lineup. Really helps with matchups later in the game, especially with the 3 batter rule. Those last 4 can be LLLL or LRLR depending on the pitcher

Yeah I love it. I think I want this as the semi-permanent lineup. Let Souza spell Heyward a good bit, and obviously lots of Nico, but give me this most days.

I'm just happy to see Happ in CF...its the little things

[Transmogrified Tiger]

The fake fans thing seems extra pointless if they’re not doing it during pitcher/batter shots and only in super specific instances

[Tim]

Darvish missing his spots a lot here.

It’s a tough job, but Caratini lost multiple strikes for Yu that inning. He has a hard enough time without losing 20% of non-swings

Doesn't help that it's Bucknor behind the plate.

[PackLandVA]

That was a painfully sloooow top of the first, but thankfully no damage.

[Tim]

Bryant got screwed by Bucknor there.

[Rex Buckingham]

What a terrible strike 2 call from Bucknor.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Baez looked like he was not pleased...

[PackLandVA]

Of course, it didn't hit the padding. Looks like it hit the forearm. Ouch.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Willy!!

[Tim]

Willson gonna be a monster this year

[Tim]

Apparently, Burnes did too much coke before the game.

[PackLandVA]

Willy got a gift on the check swing and then made Burnes pay. Cubs up 1-0!

[Brian]

Javy stared at the guy and his nose started bleeding soon thereafter, coincidence? I think not.

[Forgotmyoldlogin]

Did something to happen to Burnes or did his nose just start bleeding? That was so weird.

Just started bleeding. My guess is still the cocaine thing.

[Derwood]

Well that was a terrible run down

[bcl412]

Run downs aren’t that hard

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Javy what are you thinking?
