There are no off days this week , so Taillon ain’t coming out . He has nothing and this game is about to get out of hand soon .

They can play the up-down game with AAA arms. They can’t be worse than this. Taillon is throwing BP

They have 9 guys in the pen tonight and tomorrow

Remember the Cardinals aren't this good and the Cubs aren't this bad, it'll turn around at some point.

He needs to learn a sinker or something. He throws the straightest low 90’s fastball I’ve ever seen. 

[cl smooth]

not ideal.

On the bright side, there can be no doubt that we are in need of pitching.  Seeing Taillon pitch like an ace (which he is not) could have hindered management from pulling the trigger.  What Brown and Taillon have done has only intensified the need and search.  Bring on our ace, because, sadly, we do not have one.

That 3 run lead was awesome for a minute

[soccer10k]

Maybe get Taillon out of there before he gives up 10?

Jesus Christ.  This team needs to pull its collective head out of its ass.  Starting with Counsell. 

[Geographyhater8888]

Lol

[chibears55]

PCA fell asleep 

[PeanutPunch33]

You just know the Cubs are going to struggle to score now lmao 

[soccer10k]

Lol what are you doing PCA? Come on dude.

[JHBulls]

It’s okay PCA. You’re not to blame for any of this. 

[Cubbies1996]

The mental fortitude of the starting pitchers the last 2 nights is quite pathetic. And it would be nice if Counsell was proactive and got the guy out of the damn game before it got out of hand. So tired of this. 

[gflore34]

At the very least this now increases the chances the Cubs will get to tee off on McGreevy.

[Dfan25]

embarrassing

[profisme]

Someone on the team needs to show some fire and leadership to wake them the horsefeathers up.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Not good by PCA, but damn that guy is fast as hell.  He definitely beats PCA in a race

I really don't think so, if left in, they'll get to McGreevy for several more runs.

[UMFan83]

Woke up on Thursday 6.5 games up, could go to bed on Tuesday 2.5 games up.

I hope you’re right. But I highly doubt they will.

Yes he is. His boneheaded play cost a run. Period.
