8/29/20 Cubs (Mills) @ Reds (Antone) Game 2 Soon CT Marquee

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Now the Cubs blow it. Not a good 3 minute span.

[Soul]

Pirates up 6-5 vs Milwaukee in the 9th. If that score holds and this one holds, the Cubs will be up 4.5 games in the division and 5.5 games up on a playoff spot somehow

 

Whoops, Brewers just won. Throw all your hate on me if the Cubs also lose

 

Edit: actually blame Kimbrel

No I blame you.

 

And Kimbrel.

[Andy]

Just get rid of him

[Andy]

Pardon the timing and my ignorance, but do we know why everybody is wearing 42 again today?

 

Not sure if serious...

They did last night, that's why I'm asking. (At least I thought they did.)

[Soul]

Why would they ever swing?

I don’t remember. But horsefeathers it Jackie Robinson is such a hero, they could wear 42 every game and I’d be fine with it.

[Derwood]

That was on Contreras

Well 10 mins ago we were set up for 4.5 and 5.5. Now we end the night at 3.5 and 3.5

[Irrelevant Dude]

That's one way to lose.

Nice blocking Willson. Edited August 30, 2020 by soccer10k

6-11 since the 13-3 start

Probably because the actor that depicted Robinson in the movie 42 died yesterday.

[UMFan83]

Nice blocking Wilson.

 

To his credit, Kimbrel was all over the horsefeathering place it’s got to be hard to anticipate where the ball is going to go.

[UMFan83]

Man it’s impossible to sweep a double header

[OleMissCub]

I'm not even sure what to freaking type. It's just so predictable with him.

[PackLandVA]

Glad I tuned it late to see them piss this one away.

[UMFan83]

So glad I rushed my kids to bed to make sure I got to catch the bottom of the 7th

I hadn't seen an announcement about that move, but that makes sense.

 

Man, I hate that we signed Kimbrel.

I realize he’s one of the best closers of his generation but I have no idea why we were rushing him into high pressure situations after a couple of acceptable outings. There are other options to close games now that have mostly been fine. When Kimbrel is off he’s a horsefeathering disaster and even in games where he got the job done, it’s been clear his control isn’t there

Hey, at least one of your wife's friends isn't in the hospital after a domestic issue, and her kid is having an emergency sleep over at your place. Bright side for me, Totoro was probably 1000% better viewing than the 7th inning.

I wonder how we would have used that money if we didn’t sign him. Probably would have gone to Trump 2020

Don’t know why they moved him back to the ninth so quickly.

Ugh I’m really sorry to hear that. horsefeathers domestic abusers

[OleMissCub]

He doesn't quite have the Mark Wohlers/Rick Ankiel level of yips, but he's definitely a headcase.
