Why have you guys been complaining about Justin Turner all year, clearly a clutch player who should be playing more

Let’s not get carried away😅

He also had a pretty big hit in the 9th against the Giants to score a run and put the tying run on 3rd with 1 out.  In a game the Cubs lost by 9 runs.

Feel bad for Moises , really difficult debut , but they won !

Too anxious. Every at bat he took the first pitch and then swung at the 2nd for an easy ground out because every single one was a bad pitch to swing at. He wont be the last person to experience nerves in his first MLB game.

Maybe Merryweather needs to move down in role , IDK . 

If “move down in role” is code for released, I agree.

Wait, are you saying this is actually good? 

It portends for a very nice pinch hitting role moving forward.

Excited for tomorrows game thread where we decide on a new player that needs to be cut/killed while (most likely) sweeping the series 

It will always be Nicky Lopez for me.

And in three weeks it will be Matt Shaw.

Cant wait.

Pressly’s mom wasn’t happy with the 7th inning appearance.

Her twitter is funny, seems like she misses the astros

7th inning against the Marlins sounds about right for a player that was acquired as a salary dump for Juan Bello.

Ryan going to be closing games for the White Sox next year the way he's pitching, maybe sooner than next year.

Counterpoint: if he doesn't hustle out that 9th inning fielders choice then the Cubs might not have won. Not the best offensive performance but his determination to beat out the double play saved the game, so good on him for never giving up.

Sucks when your gold glovers both make errors on the same night. I know that one on Nico won’t be technically an error but it absolutely was. 

SS/2B defense has been a bit rough/sloppy the last 2-3 weeks.

Interesting how the Marlins supposedly have a horrible pen yet they are just parading out sub-3.00 ERA dudes one after the other

It was weird watching the Mets series and seeing them trot out relievers that actually looked like athletes.  Hodge counts though.
