I think Tucker needs another 3 days off.

Just leave him in Chicago while the team heads out west.

Caissie catches that.

[Geographyhater8888]

Indefensible.

Counsell didn't do Tucker any favors today by playing him a day earlier then planned, should of left him on the bench and had him come back on the road tomorrow. 

[Cubbies1996]

And that’s game. This team really knows how to ruin the good will they’ve gained

Well pooh

That dude suuuuuucccckkkks

The Cubs were good when Tucker was benched and back to being bad when he starts. Send him back to the bench. 

[Cubbies1996]

Also, get Brasier off this team. Good lord. 

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

The ol' Ryan Brasier white flag. Eh, didn't except to win today anyway.

[mul21]

Well, the middle 3 games were fun at least.  I wish they'd have just put Tucker on the IL to give him time to work on what's jacked up with his swing and let the kid play.

He made two nearly identical catches on fly balls to that corner the other night.  Also I would bet you his sprint speed is higher than Tucker's so he covers ground quicker.

He's definitely faster than Tucker, I"ll give you that. Tucker is in the bottom 25% of the league in sprint speed.

2.4 ft/second faster actually.

[Derwood]

Tucker isn’t swinging well, and when he actually runs into one, he has terrible luck

Neither of those catches were near as difficult as that one.  They were both fantastic plays, but the wind was tougher today, that was a much higher fly ball, and he was much deeper in the corner than either play Caissie made.

Here we go, 2 on no outs 

Can they get more then 1 this time

[chibears55]

Everytime they say Nico tough to K he seems to K right after..lol

[Bobson Dugnutt]

Hell yeah, a Nico strikeout

[Cubbies1996]

2 on, no outs and they probably aren’t going to score. Like clockwork

[chibears55]

Cool

[squally1313]

well that somehow didn't work
