Cade Horton is a Dude.

I really hope Horton can handle the increased workload. He’s the only 4 I have any faith in starting a playoff game.

You can put Gonzalez at number 1 for botching a double play, Alou’s overreaction throwing off Priors concentration and momentum, Dusty for leaving Prior in too long, all have an argument.

More then arguments, those were the reasons..

Plus you can add Dusty nor the pitching coach came out to settle Prior and the rest of team down after that play when you could clearly see it was troubling him/them.

I feel bad for both Horton and Imanaga. Playing out of their minds lately. 

[BigSlick]

I’m gonna need yall to get some runs here or we’re gonna have a problem 

[nihilist]

All my Turner shade shut down with that slappy single, happy to be defiantly wrong 

[UMFan83]

If we don't score here I give up

[Andy]

Seiya with two sizzling line shots so far. Hopefully he's coming out of it.

[Cubbies1996]

At least there’s some hard contact today

[UMFan83]

Of course a nice line drive but caught.  I'll take the run but it could have made this inning that much more dangerous

If he doesn’t get credit for the HR he clobbered on Sunday or for his success against lefties throughout the season and if we’re classifying singles with 100 MPH exit velocity as slappy, yeah I agree he’s been terrible.

[BigSlick]

I said runs runssss plural!

[nihilist]

No hitter in Cleveland Williams just needs a clean 9th inning

[nihilist]

Sorry off topic, I doubt anyone cares 

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Feels like it's starting to come together for Cade, this doesn't include today

No hitters are always cool.

His fastball placement and the splitting of the four-seam with cut (now thrown to LHH) and the sinker (thrown to RHH) feels like it was such an important catalyst for this. Once he can spot up the slider a little more, he's got legitimate top-rotation stuff. Very exciting.

Love being able to watch last couple innings of no hitters or perfection when we can

Thanks for letting us know

[Tryptamine]

God this offense is just hot garbage.

[Outshined_One]

 

[chibears55]

Alright guys let figure out a way to scratch another run up there

[UMFan83]

feels like we're either gonna win 1-0 or we're not gonna win.
