9/4 - Big Willy's Back....oh, and the Cubs Look to Make It 5 in a Row

[PackLandVA]

That means no Austin Romine, but, oh well.

[UMFan83]

2 batters in HRendricks gives up a bomb

[PackLandVA]

I wonder if he was made available at the deadline, and if so, were there any significant offers. Not that I'm advocating he being traded, more curious as I don't recall hearing any rumors.

On a good team, Hendricks is at best a #4. And yes, I was the guy advocating him to be in the CY running a little more than a month ago. Trade him if you can.

This has been Kyle's worst season and he has a 1.34 whip. Exit Velo is right where it's always been. Highest HR/FB rate is the issue, which is high variance obviously. He's making $13mil. If you get a disproportionate return, fine, but I'd guess he has more value here than in a trade.

[muntjack]

Nevermind. Trade him.

[UMFan83]

Season ERA up to 4.65. It was 3.61 at the deadline

Big Frank continues to impress. Today with the game winner.

[PackLandVA]

So the Cubs have either scored 2 in the 9th to tie

 

or

 

They've scored 3 in the 9th for the win.

 

Play under review!

[PackLandVA]

5 in a row!!

[UMFan83]

That was a fun comeback. 5 in a row and 8 of 11.

 

Hurting draft positioning but I’m still enjoying some life from this almost completely new team of scraps

[chopsx9]

Du Tank!!

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Cubs can’t lose

[UMFan83]

1 more win to avoid 100 losses
