Cubs (Imanaga) vs Marlins (Bellozo): 8/24/24, 3;10pm

[We Got The Whole 9]

Get horsefeathers excited guys. Been a long time since we had a toolsy player like this.

[UMFan83]

Holy horsefeathers that was a mammoth blast.  Wow PCA is a dude

[Crusader]

horsefeathers yeah, PCA. That was where the big boys hit them.

[Geographyhater8888]

Slug is so efficient. 

[DYMNO]

PCA is a dude. So ridiculously excited. Amaya is red hot, too. Good times.

[Geographyhater8888]

PCA’s coming around nicely.

[Rex Buckingham]

Lol Marlins

[JHBulls]

This is a new and fun way to tank. 

[Eeyore]

Clowning is fun when it's the opponent doing it 

[Crusader]

Back to 500 now.

PCA has caught up to Dansby in OPS

[UMFan83]

Shota has allowed 8 HR in his 5 August starts, and at least 1 HR allowed in each of his last 7 starts.

13 of the 15 runs Shota has allowed in August (earned and unearned) have come on home runs.

Not to bring too much negativity into a game we're winning handily but its something worth pointing out.  As long as he keeps guys off bases for the most part its all good but the HR ball is starting to become a bit of an issue for Shota.

There must be some sort of therapy for always seeing dark clouds in sunny skies.

[BKHoo]

PCA and Amaya are hot! The future looks bright. 

[JHBulls]

Looks like Sutcliffe has gotten his 45,000 words in.

[JHBulls]

[BKHoo]

[JHBulls]

His repertoire is pretty well-known. Nobody fucks with the splitter, they sit on the fastball. Miami was aggressive today too, put a lot of pitches into play.

Was cool to see his surge until I saw this buzzkill

PCA XBH

Shota is going to give up HRs. It’s part of his game.
