Just let Wicks start the 7th Craig. He pitches again in 5 days, I doubt his arm will drop off tomorrow. 

And then when the reliever comes in with men on, we complain that the reliever should’ve started with a fresh inning and/or Wicks was done after 6..

amirite

Does it appear the Astro' starter has been given the edges of the strike zone more so than Wicks?

 

Watching, and I think the ump has been pretty consistent for both teams.

[CubinNY]

Verlander looking like a pitching coach. Is he still with Kate Upton?

[LBiittner]

Bad call

Will probably be a moot poin as I can’t even Wicks coming back out anyway,

Zaidman is still the absolutely the worst radio PBP guy I’ve ever heard. He has absolutely no feel for the game and how to articulate the feeling of what’s going on.

Did I just see Canario on deck for Bellinger

You did.

[chibears55]

horsefeathers..

Can't lose Bellinger now

[LBiittner]

What's the over/under for belli to the IL?

[PackLandVA]

When will Belly officially go on IR?

[LBiittner]

Canario with the glove

[chibears55]

Hmmm, I guess Brown not starting Saturday unless this would be considered a bullpen day for him and he just throwing X amount of pitches

[chibears55]

Good defensive replacement call by CC there

😅

They usually wait a couple days, so Friday 

🤦‍♂️

[WhyCantWeWin]

Hopefully it’s just some soreness for Bellinger 

[LBiittner]

Back in the good old days men would tuff it out lol

[chibears55]

Who next in line to come up to pitch if it not Brown or would they go with Wesneski?

[LBiittner]

Who is the closer tonight, neris?

Have to think Leiter 

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Rough day for Busch's Z-Contact%

[chibears55]

Funny how we see teams jump out with a bunch of runs in first inning or two and then can't seem to do anything afterwards.
