He needs 97-100+ to make it work

 

Nah

 

His command is just poor in general now.

His command was always poor, but have 97-100 made that breaking ball play up. Imo. Command may be worse now but he was never a command guy, the stuff and velo just covered for him.

 

No, his command wasn't always poor... It's clearly gotten worse and yeah, having better stuff helps but he still has decent velo on the fastball.

 

Just doesn't locate it well and the fastball is elevated too often. The knuckle curve is usually too low or too inside on lefties or thrown too far away from righties to chase.

One batter too late. Be fair to give your next guy a chance.

Road Cubs. It’s been a while.

Guilty, not sure I've ever been so wrong. I've said some really dumb horsefeathers too.

Road Cubs. It’s been a while.

 

Road Cubs had a no-hitter through 5 and were up 7-0

[abuck1220]

eight walks from the bullpen is not ideal

[Derwood]

Starting to think that spending no money in the off season and expecting the Iowa Shuttle to fill out the bullpen was a bad idea

Games still go 9 this year, until they cancel the season

How the hell did we win this game?
