Won't have to worry about the bullpen blowing this one, the bats are done scoring tonight. 

[CubinNY]

Ok!

[Chicago Al]

horsefeathers I should have been filming that one 

[JHBulls]

Jed needs to save Cleavinger from TB and bring him over to the Cubs.

[PeanutPunch33]

I hate this team where was this yesterday? 

 

[WhyCantWeWin]

Will the bullpen be able to hold the lead?

[ToolDRT]

Did we just get a big hit?!

[JHBulls]

Ian Happ looks perpetually pissed off all the time. The sign of a bad hitter.

One of the highest paid outfielders in the league and barely hitting above league average. 102 wRC+

boy Smyly just cooked them there, very nice to see

[ToolDRT]

And a nice half inning from Smyly. This is where it all turns around, boys!*
 

* probably not really

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Gary Payton calling Dennis Rodman the horsefeathers up person, a pest and he just changed the game with his presence is basically an accurate description of PCA.

Just a random thought and not worthy of a separate thread:

We are quickly approaching the anniversary of the PSD castration. I'd be curious to find out how many new members have joined NSBB within the last year? I know, I'm dull. 

Since June 1 2023, we have had 271 registrations on the site.

Jorge Lopez. What's the story with this guy? DFA'd by the Mets. Now the Cubs have him on a minor league deal.

Edit: Now I remember him. He's the guy who trashed his team. I doubt that he has learned his lesson so soon. I fear that he'll be a cancer that they don't need.

He didn’t actually trash his team, he said HE was the worst teammate and it was misreported. He also has a sick son and a history of mental illness. He’s got problems. 

[CubinNY]

Drew 

[Transmogrified Tiger]

carved up Paredes, Arozarena, Siri too, really needed an outing like this from Smyly.  I'd think about letting him start the 9th, even if only to prefer Smyly v. Rosario/Deluca to Neris v. Palacios.

[CubinNY]

111 ev for Chris.

That’s what I read too. Obviously there’s a language barrier, shame to hear about his son.

Worst batted ball luck. Gomes deserves a HR for hitting that hard

103 mph, .720 xBA, HR in 20/30 parks

Seiya’s out was 107 mph with a .520 xBA
