Blood for the BABIP Gods

Would Frelick be a good comp for a best case outcome for Kepley?

The better question is, would Ty Cobb be a good comp for Frelick vs Cubs pitching?

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Yay.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Alright let's get a few more and cruise to victory shall we

[Dfan25]

Better keep scoring , because they will keep coming at you 

[squally1313]

I understand he hit a home run today and they are incapable of making outs, but Yelich has an 88 wRC against LHP this year. That was the expected result.

Like a skateboard on a gravel road. 

[Derwood]

Happ just LOVES striking out looking. 

[UMFan83]

Happ taking a lot of called strike 3s lately (and by lately I mean 2 recent instances I can recall, this being one of them)

[squally1313]

Small sample size and everything, but their struggling pitcher eating innings because of the DH implications should just not be able to go through our 2-3-4 like that the third time through the order. Can't happen. 

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Please don't let them get closer. 

[I owned a Suzuki]

Cub players looking tense with a 5-2 lead

[UMFan83]

Boyd is giving up line shots all over the place, maybe someone ought to be getting up in the pen

They know 5 is all they got in em

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Go up 5-0 give up leadoff extra base hits every inning after. Fun.

[squally1313]

Also, separate complaint, but if you're going to bury these games on a team owned channel and then not come to an agreement with basically all the major cable providers and then also have your app not be available on the Samsung interface so that I'm somehow sitting here watching this on your app on my phone, maybe don't have the game crash out 4 times before the 6th inning. 

[We Got The Whole 9]

I am not crazy about having Boyd out there. They have a good read on him.

Everyone is the pen is too scared to come in.  The last 3 bullpen pitchers to come in against the Brewers were never seen or heard from again.

[UMFan83]
