Nothing could ever convince me Tucker even gets a glove on either of those flyouts

This is objectively false and dumb.

Theres Castros moment!

Well, looks like I was spot on in my Castro criticisms from earlier. 

[Cubbies1996]

There we go Willi!

[Geographyhater8888]

I see Caissie’s defense is going to result in a lot of butthole clinching.

For me it's more of a not having seen him play much.  He definitely lumbers a bit because he's just a big dude but I haven't seen anything that makes me concerned about his defense.  Those were both tougher than average catches.

Finally Willi!

That ball was hammered. Welcome to the Cubs, Willi, glad you could finally join us

[Derwood]

Castro - Not entirely useless

[Hortonhearsawho]

Nice to see Castro finally do something

Maybe a blowout win vs this team riding high on voodoo magic can get the Cubs going.

Caissie will need a rocket up his ass to get to that one.

You angered the voodoo. 

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Officially nervous 

[Soul]

So this is the part where the Cubs need to break the "Brewers thing" where they get whatever they need to pull wins out of their collective ass.

Agreed, they were tough plays. Like you said, he lumbers. He doesn’t give off strong visuals. Wrigley is also a very difficult RF to play.

Nah the Brewers have never come back from an early 5+ run deficit

They are hitting the ball hard now so I'm officially nervous. 

[itisallpartoftheplan]

They’re going to keep coming and we’ll go down mostly in order, huh?

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

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Death by a thousand cuts.
