5-24 Cubs @ Reds (a bad team versus a badder team)

[PackLandVA]

Would like to see Stroman not give up a dinger. Only happened once so far, and that was his best performance to date.

 

And the unflappable PJ Higgins will be his signal caller. Yay.

Stroman blows

Cubs go up 3-0 in the first. Stroman gives back 2, Cubs load the bases with 1 out, Ortega strikes out swinging on a pitch way too high, and Seiya grounds out.

 

That’s how you lose games. #thatscub

Nice to see Rivas get a big hit.

 

That’s how you win games. #thatscub

IMO Morel has been fun to watch so far. Not sure if he sticks but he’s making the best of it

Schwindel on quite the heater. Maybe his early season issues really was the lingering back injury?

It’s good to see them beating a bad team.

Joey Votto looks like he wants to jump in front of a bus. I actually feel bad for that guy.

He only does this against bad teams.

They said the same thing about Sosa.

Not only that, he only hit HRs when they were down 5 runs. The similarities are everywhere.

OK I think we have an answer.

 

Then again this is #RoadCubs. Lets see how these teams match up at Wrigley.

Said another way, on Saturday morning, he should not have been on the major league roster. As of 5 minutes ago, he should not be on the major league roster.

Nice 9 pitch inning from Hughes.

 

The Reds look like they just want the game to be over.

It should have been a Dread Pirate Roberts thing ever since last year. "Good night Frank, good work. Sleep well, I'll most likely demote you in the morning"

I guess Simmons’ shoulder is Ok.
