They didn't scratch Taillon so pretty safe to say he isn't going anywhere. 

Watch him get traded mid outing now

Can we send either down into a ditch?

What's wrong with Bote?  He's been solid enough.  OK with him being sent down, but into a ditch seems a little extreme for him at least.

Mark Fiensted did an AMA on reddit a few hours ago and he seemed to think it was heading in the direction of Taillon getting traded but ill believe it when I see it. 

He shouldnt be pitching tonight either way until after the trade deadline imo, but we are trying to win games still 

[Tryptamine]

Taillon isn't fooling anyone early on

[KCCub]

Nice catch Seiya

Definitely makes it less likely as you wouldnt risk him getting hurt if a deal was close, but assuming he survives this start I could see a deal coming together over the next 20 hours or so should a team step up.

[Tryptamine]

Good recovery 

[PackLandVA]

Have a good feeling about PCS this game/this series.  Don't know why, just a hunch.

[Tryptamine]

Bah PCA smoked that

[Tryptamine]

Over/under 5 bases stolen on Amaya tonight?

Contact quality trending up

Should of traded him 😅

[BKHoo]

Wow that is embarrassing. Delayed steal plus a passed ball. 

[WhyCantWeWin]

Lowering his trade value smh

[Cubbies1996]

I think we could get a varsity high school catcher to do a better job than Amaya. So awful. 

[JHBulls]

Playing a team with a bad record, quick, better show we also have a bad record.

I miss playing against the Orioles and Royals. :(

[UMFan83]

Ahh yes we're playing the NL Central again, time to get beat down.

[UMFan83]

Damn just catching up, so 3 stolen bases and a passed ball to score a runner in 3 innings of catching?  Amaya is quite the catcher.

[Cubbies1996]

Manifesting a big inning coming up….🙌

[Cubbies1996]

Nevermind they suck

[We Got The Whole 9]

Another pathetic showing by the offense

[CubinNY]

Back to sloppy ball

[Rex Buckingham]

Ugh, should have pitched Steele

[chibears55]

I bet after taking 2 of 3 the past weekend and the offense showing life, Hoyer actually felt like they could still compete if he kept everyone together 😅

They're stuck with Taillon now

[Irrelevant Dude]

Someone told me the season was saved. 

I was misinformed.
