7/31 Pirates (Williams) at Cubs (Darvish) 7:15 CT Marquee

[Andy]

Didn't even have the game on and pulled up the app and sure enough there's 2 Pittsburgh runs before an out is recorded. This guy's done as done can get.

[UMFan83]

This is bad even in the context of bad Theo signings

[UMFan83]

Kimbrel sucks. Move him to garbage time.

 

The funny thing is, this is the exact opposite issue he had his last time out when he allowed 0 hits but walked 4 and hit a batter. This time he’s not walking anyone and is getting shelled

[17 Seconds]

you know that sound when you get a perfect-perfect in the show? yeah

[Tim]

Kimbrel sucks. Move him to garbage time.

To be fair, it was garbage time when he came in

[UMFan83]

The Cubs bullpen tonight allowed 3 runs in 3 innings and their ERA for the season went down

Closer done f’d himself

Glad the dude managed to get 3 outs before 5 runs scored but every single batter in that inning smoked the ball. He’s really fortunate the tying run isn’t at the plate right now

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Kimbrel got 3 outs in a row!

[itisallpartoftheplan]

At least he threw strikes.

[Bertz]

His velo was up a tick from last outing, so that's something...I guess?

[Omar]

Craig KimbLOL

[Bote McBoteface]

We never have a bullpen and it makes me sad.

He's either tipping pitches or everyone in baseball has decided to pull an Astros on him specifically for whatever reason

[UMFan83]

Kimbrel before Cubs: 9 seasons, 532.2 IP, 35 home runs allowed, 1 HR every 15 IP

 

Kimbrel on Cubs: 1+ seasons, 22.0 IP, 11 home runs allowed, 1 HR every 2 IP

So as long as he gives up contact above 104 he gets outs.
