A gapper would be nice here

[chibears55]

Nope

[Irrelevant Dude]

Morel is lost.

[UMFan83]

Morel has stranded 5 now in 2 innings 

[Andy]

Giving away these early scoring chances does not bode well

Morel is lost.

I have no idea whatsoever why he's hitting so high in the order

[Bobson Dugnutt]

Morel needs a few days off in a bad way.

[UMFan83]

When is the last time Morel has had a day off? Seems like we’re tripling down on his getting out of his horrific slump by playing him every day and at a critical spot in the order

If the umpire doesn't give Kyle the bottom of the zone, he's screwed

 

So far, so good

[Andy]

Monster HR aside, Hendricks looks very sharp today.

[Bobson Dugnutt]

Ok, Hendricks actually looks really good aside from the bomb. Please keep it up Kyle!

[Illiterate Scholar]

I think this ump has gotten every close call correct. Even the one the Marlins' catcher dropped. It's refreshing 

Edit: ope strike 1 to Busch was bad. Nvm

[Derwood]

Swanson is anti-clutch this year

[KCCub]

Cabrera is going to settle in now…

[Chicago Al]

Cabrera got these hitters looking foolish

[Southpaw19]

Marlins teeing off now...

[Andy]

I had to say something.

[Irrelevant Dude]

4th inning, here we go.

Hendricks giving them cookies.

[CubinNY]

Teeing off this inning 

[WhyCantWeWin]

Yep just what you’d expect from a Hendricks start. Even against a team as bad as the marlins.  

[chibears55]

4 hits in a row, he's done, he just can't get through an order twice.

[PeanutPunch33]

The Cubs have dodged some major bullets over the last few years.  Bryant extension.  Baez extension.  And apparently a Hendricks extension.  

[chibears55]

A split at home against this Marlins club is pitiful. 

[WhyCantWeWin]

I also don’t get that foolish notion of needed to push Assad and Brown to the bullpen because it makes the bullpen stronger. It makes the rotation weaker which is way more important. 

[Irrelevant Dude]

What the hell Dansby.
