I really wanted JD Martinez for DH

He is the one guy I really wanted as well, that would have fit the Cubs plan. But they didn’t know if Morel was going to play 3rd.

The patch is for Sandberg

Spoiler

 

National broadcasters just love thinking outside the box and telling the viewers what should have happened. 😂

My bad. I just figure it’s inevitable 

[CubinNY]

PCA!

[Illiterate Scholar]

Haha, I think Alvarez was giving PCA a hard time for throwing a change up into 2B right before that 

[CubinNY]

Assad had Lindor struck out

[Derwood]

Terrible 2-strike pitching.

Not really. Had the 1-1 pitch been called a strike we don’t know if he makes the same pitch on 1-2 as he did 2-1. Everything is different. He isn’t pitching well, period. It’s not the umpires fault.

[CubinNY]

Nice play. Y Busch there

Defense is keeping the Cubs borderline in this game. Or course they have to also score runs. Not sure that is going to happen. 

[KCCub]

Would be cool if we would swing at pitches down the middle

In the meantime, the Cubs are taking cookies for strike 3. So broken

[CubinNY]

Not a good showing tonight 

[chibears55]

Another awesomely boring Cubs game with the bats...

And overall, that was a generation of pitchers who could pitch more because they weren't learning how to throw sliders when they were 7 years old and thus blowing out their elbows at age 24

100% right on.

This team is total trash . They look like this againts the majority of pitchers they face . Guys that don’t strike people out , strikes them out . Amazed people talk like they will be buyers next month .

What they should do is try to trade as much of this garbage as possible and get under the LT. Hopefully get over next year if Hoyer actually does his job well and puts together a good roster .

 

[Cubfanintheknow]

Don't the Cubs charter a plane? They're batting like they have to catch the next plane to San Francisco. Not working the count at all.

[DYMNO]

Absolute garbage team.

The important thing about this year is that Tom isn’t going have to spend over the luxury tax, ok 

[Derwood]

Oh look, Amaya with ANOTHER catcher interference. He sucks at literally everything

He’s well above league average at sucking, so he doesn’t suck at that.

It would be nice if this lineup could repeat an offensive explosion the very next day.
