8/24 Cubs (Mills) @ Tigers (Mize) / 6:10pm CDT / Marquee

[SouthSideRyan]

Greetings from my beautiful office on my couch!

 

The Cubs took a pause from being bad for an inning yesterday and it was enough. The Tigers started ok and are on the downward spiral to how terrible they should be.

 

Everybody hop back on the Cubs bandstationwagon

Gonna get old pretty fast watching guys flail at Mize’s split. Kid will rack up double figure punch outs in his second MLB start.

I don’t think reverting back to 2014 Javy is the best strategy before FA

[TMan92]

Rizz with a great AB there.

He’s really only been a real elite hitter in 2018 until September and then a month or two last year. Saw some tweet the other day about it. He’s been shockingly average from a wRC+ standpoint outside of that period.

Jesus Javy wtf was that? Inexcusable

 

I know Javy deserves more rope on the basepaths than anyone in baseball but that seemed reckless even by his standards

Saw a quote from Javy that he was having trouble focusing with no fans. He’s definitely not all there.

Mills implosion incoming

[UMFan83]

And now Javy forgets how many outs there are. I wonder if there is something going on in his personal life. This is not him right now

Ugh and now Javy...blasts a 2 run homer. That’s more like it

I'm watching this on FS1, and these might be worst baseball play by play announcers who ever lived.

[Cubswin11]

Everybody on the SSR bandwagon

 

[CubinNY]

Tigers are not good.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Some weak horsefeathers from Rizzo with the bases loaded. Twice.

See the ol reverse psychology works every time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ok, my first post was totally serious.

Really great bounce back start from Mills. Honestly I'd like to have him stick in the rotation through the end of the year. He's not one of our top five but I'd really like to have as much certainty as possible about whether he can be the #5 going into next year.

Welp

 

Still think it's important to get him starts given the three open rotation be spots heading into next year

[CubinNY]

I know the bullpen is not that good, but Ross seems to leave his starting pitchers in too long.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Is this Marty Funkhouser‘s boy?
