7/2 - Guardians (Civale) vs Cubs (Taillon): 4:05pm, Marquee

[Brock Beauchamp]

This might be a rough one. Civale is quite good and Taillon somehow has an ERA that's almost up to seven.

[Derwood]

 

[Nolansomebody]

Still can't believe we have a starting pitcher with an almost 7 ERA 🤦‍♂️

[PackLandVA]

Cubs are 2-11 on Sundays.

Cubs also 2-11 in Taillon starts.

What could go wrong?

[Derwood]

 

[Derwood]

Rain delay....again

[Nolansomebody]

 

At least we have this to celebrate!

[champaignchris]

Estimated start time 6 pm. 

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Gimenez dropping his hands into the path of a pitch that misses the plate by about an inch seems a wee bit questionable to me

[Derwood]

Everything Taillon pitches is up. Outside of that final curveball, I think everything was top of zone or high out of the zone

[UMFan83]

This team is not fun more often than it’s fun

[UMFan83]

Taillon season ERA now 7.18 after his 4 IP, 5 ER performance so far. Phantom DL his ass and figure it out. Wesneski can do better than a 7 ERA

[UMFan83]

Guess Jared Young is not the defensive answer at first either. How hard is it to play the position?

[Andy]

Taillon can horsefeathers off. What a disaster. At least when Heyward sucked 8 other guys could make up for it.

[Derwood]

Taillon is Anthony Young bad

3 minutes ago, Derwood said:

Taillon is Anthony Young bad

I literally was just thinking, "He's Anthony Young, but on a long term deal."

[UMFan83]

Offense appears to be going into a slump again. Runs since London:

1

5

1

10

0

1 (so far)

[Derwood]

This team is so stupid

[Derwood]

Fake rally?

[cl smooth]

Real rally.

[champaignchris]

Ok. Pretty much must win this game now. Can’t squander this. 

[Derwood]

God, that runner rule is so horsefeathering stupid

[UMFan83]

Seiya 0 for his last 20 and has an OPS in the .400s since the start of June

[Irrelevant Dude]

Do we have to keep pretending like Swanson has been a great signing just because he hasn't been as bad as the other free agent SS's?

[Andy]

Glad we wasted 4 runs on that comeback so our underlying metrics can keep saying this team is better than it is.
