Rockies (Quantrill) vs Cubs (Little): 4/3/24, 6:40pm

[Derwood]

Nice bounce back for Brown

[Jason Ross]

Goddamnit Morel.

[WhyCantWeWin]

This is getting a bit out of hand…

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Christopher the bar is so low please stop tripping over it

[UMFan83]

See, Morel Is the man but that horsefeathers can’t happen.  Hopefully he can fix this quickly.

That was the end of the inning right there. 

[PackLandVA]

Morel didn’t need to rush it and throw off one foot. Could’ve played the error like the last out.

[Jason Ross]

It feels like every time the ball gets hit to him that we're rolling like, a D20 and half of the numbers end in "Morel makes an error" right now. 

[Wilson A2000]

Will Morel have a higher OPS or fielding % this year ? He’s at .500 with his fielding percentage currently.

Well, you can't have a fielding percentage higher than 1.000, so I'm going with the OPS. 😃

I had to read that 4 times to figure out what you meant.

I'm a dork. It's a 20-sided dice. Like in nerdy ass games like D&D. I...uh...I own a few. 

Spoiler

I hit a double off of a former MLB hitter last summer off of his fastball. 

I'm not humble bragging. I felt like I needed to say the least dorky thing about me to build me back up because I crave validation.

Surprise the Rockies have challenged him early in the game with bunts, especially given the weather conditions. Chuck had the lead off bunt yesterday, but I think that’s been it.

[JHBulls]

Yes!

8-2 ball game. 

[Tim]

Has Nico already walked more than he did all of last year?

 

[chibears55]

Just call the game now before someone gets hurt, Rockies aren't coming back in this one.

And Madrigal played 3rd yesterday. So Chuck didn’t even  test Morel.

Pft. Amateur. Try being a grognard with no shelf space left for new war games.

Still kicking myself over missing the latest GMT COIN release.

I skipped baseball practice two Sundays ago to play a 12 hour game of Twilight Imperium. Totally worth it.

Oh, we didn't finish haha. It was just 10pm and we had to work the next day. It was my first Twilight experience. Awesome game. Will play again. Think I liked it more than Eclipse.

[WhyCantWeWin]

Almonte is not good at baseball

[Tryptamine]

Almonte has stuff, but that's all he has. Really unimpressed with him so far.

[Rex Buckingham]

Hard to judge pitchers too much in these conditions
