Mervis and PCA carrying the Cubs offense

Because the Cubs never win.

Playing deep and or late read/jump

Imanaga a flyball pitcher but seems like most of his flyballs are just pop outs or short flies where hitters are getting way under the ball.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Good pitch to swing at Christopher 

[UMFan83]

Busch now 4 for his last 33 with 14 Ks and 1 XBH. Need him to adjust to the adjustments sometime soon

[PackLandVA]

Dansby with an actual Dansby play.

[WhyCantWeWin]

Guess that’s it for Imanaga, great outing again. Just wish Counsell would let these guys go past 80 pitches. 

[UMFan83]

Imanaga is the greatest pitcher in baseball history 

[CubinNY]

Shota better than I could have hoped for 

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Shota leads qualified pitchers in ERA by over half a run.

Maybe we’ll be thankful in September when they aren’t all gassed. I don’t know if that’s his intention or it’s the 3rd time through the order thing but for Imanaga in particular he’s never had more than 170 IP in a season. 

[CubinNY]

Dansby with a hit! 

[CubinNY]

Matty going yard here

But seriously I know we focus on the Cubs offensive struggles but the Mets seem like they have some really good pitching. Figured after trading Verlander and Scherzer and deGrom leaving they have like 6 starters all with really nice numbers and that doesn’t even include Senga. What devil magic are they using?

[chibears55]

Mervis is hitting a homerun 

Yes yes he is 😅

[CubinNY]

Or not. 
 

awful

Decent pitching development and one of the best pitcher's parks in baseball 81 times a year.

Yep.. sometimes with rookies, they can have a hot start but your weakness will eventually show up...

[LBiittner]

Dansby is the leader of this team - no doubt about it

[chibears55]

PCA gonna bunt for a hit and get the run home...

Need this extra run, who knows with this bullpen holding a 1  run lead

Looking at the injury list across mlb / I'd be limiting the starters to less than that. Lol

We could just end the mystery and let Adbert pitch?
