HE LIVES

[DYMNO]

Seeing how happy all of Tuck’s teammates were warms my cold, dead, black heart. 

[UMFan83]

Turner now 20-41 against Anderson 

[DYMNO]

Matt Shaw is a horsefeathers rock star. I’m in love. 

[Cubbies1996]

A Tucker HR AND Assad threw a 9 pitch first inning? What is happening?

Boog will probably be crushing a filet mignon tonight when he receives a call from Marquee that Alex cohen has unsettled JD so much that Boog must call the next two nights, 

JD barely tolerates him. You can hear the contempt

[DYMNO]

Man, oh man, does PCA need a day or two off. 

[Cubbies1996]

Man if only Counsell had a backup CF who hits lefties….

[BKHoo]

Give PCA a day or two off. 

[BigSlick]

PCA struck out on a pitch that almost doesn't show up on statcast

[JHBulls]

Hey look at that, Eugenio Suarez has sucked since the deadline.

Cal Raleigh aside, T-Mobile is where hitters go to die.

I ❤️ Nico Hoerner. 

[Cubfanintheknow]

Interesting stat on walk rates...

But where can I fine % of walks who eventually come around to score? Anecdotally... seems like the percentage is really high for the Cubs.

Hopefully this can be Tucker game where he gets a couple hits and the last month is forgotten cause he just takes off from here

[Tryptamine]

Clutch AB Tucker

Walks the first 2 guys easily and then throws like 11 strikes in a row (including balls swung at)

[JHBulls]

Every single year. The same story with the Angels. I get Mike Trout got a well paid contract (even unders), but gosh, his initial six year contract was expirinh in 2020. He could have literally just left as a FA and had his pick of contenders. But nope, he signed his career to a go nowhere club in 2019.

Seiya has looked more and more like himself these last few games. Really, really good to see.

[UMFan83]

Damn Seiya has hit 2 hard balls tonight and all he has to show for it is a sac fly

[Tryptamine]

As usual, wasted a big opportunity to blow it open.

[UMFan83]

I know we’ve been saying this for awhile but bases loaded 0 outs and 2-3-4 due up, you need to do better than 1 run

He's gotten insanely unlucky lately - had a few near misses last series too. Hope a few of them drop for him soon. 

As opposed to PCA who is just putting out dreadful at bats mostly
