8/21 - Cubs (Assad) vs Tigers (Faedo): 5:40pm, Marquee

[Tryptamine]

Fulmer is back into garbage mode and a walk machine warming up in Palencia.

[chibears55]

Uggh,  gotta limit the damage and get out of this with the lead still.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

maybe this is me just being old fashioned but it feels like a good time for the catcher to actually give the pitcher a target to hit

[Tryptamine]

Huge break on strike 3

[Hunter]

I'll take the freebie ump

 

[Brock Beauchamp]

Rang him up ten minutes after the pitch but okay, I'll take it.

[UMFan83]

ok well got that call which was much much worse

[chibears55]

Make up call there for strike 3.. ill take it, now need a DP

[chibears55]

Javy gonna Javy

[Tryptamine]

Of course the broken bat flare that hits the foul line

[UMFan83]

Had to be Javy.  So much for high leverage Fulmer.

[Brock Beauchamp]

Cue Yakkity Sax.

[Tryptamine]

What a damn disaster 

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Unreal

[Irrelevant Dude]

Uggggggggh.

[UMFan83]

and then mckinstry horsefeathers

How could you just start someone warming up when they load the bases? Stupid managing by Rossy. 

[UMFan83]

This is why it wasn't cool for the Royals to hang around all weekend and use up all of our high leverage pen arms

[Derwood]

The Fulmer game

The pen was up after the first two reached

[profisme]

Fulmar clearly had nothing at all. 

[PeanutPunch33]

Somebody should tell Ross that he shouldn’t use the relievers in his pen that have spent most of their careers in the AL central 

something tells me that might not work against an AL central team that hasn’t seen any of your relievers before except those 2. Haha

Always good to throw away a game when Smyly is going tomorrow 

[WhyCantWeWin]

Fulmer is mad inconsistent, I'd keep him out of all high leverage situations

I can go back and check, but it sounded like they said Palencia just got up to throw once the bases were loaded.
