He was flirting with one yesterday the first couple times up, jacked that one

Thought they were pitching around Nico

I figure that they told The Whis to be aggressive with Nico because they didn't want to face Tucker with bases loaded.

Boy that was a weird mound visit, coming out in the middle of an AB, and Nico diagnosed it perfectly.

I think he thought Nico would take that one and tried to sneak it in, then it 50/50 on the 3-2 pitch to see if he'll chase one off the plate.

That my guess, but Nico was ready for it

Brilliant timing for it

[Derwood]

See, if Alex Cohen was working this game, we never would have "Captain Hunter-Pants"

[DYMNO]

Not that it matters anymore, but the Brewers just lost 3-2.

[JHBulls]

Brewers lost. 

[chibears55]

Amaya cant come back soon enough

I thought Kelly was a 2 yr deal but it 3, though they can buy him out of the 3rd year.

Well a Rea implosion game was imminent and this feels like that game 

[UMFan83]

Not a big fan of how this is trending

[DYMNO]

Ugh.

[abuck1220]

in retrospect walking the guy with the .470 OPS was unwise 

[Cubbies1996]

Almost like they should have scored with bases loaded and one out 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

[Geographyhater8888]

Rea looks like horsefeathers. That sub 2 ERA from

the starting pitching wasn’t sustainable, hopefully the same applies to this dog horsefeathers offense.

Colin Rea is the kinda guy to see a Nico 3 run jack and decide to immediately turn into a complete disaster 

[Derwood]

I've been a Rea defender all year, but he sucks butt tonight

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Thanks, Collin.

[Andy]

We probably got all the decent pitching we could get out of Rea and now we're hurtling down the other side.

[JHBulls]

Bad ML pitcher has a blow up inning. Colour me shocked.

But .. cheese sticks 

[Cubbies1996]

This team has been so damn frustrating to watch the second half of the season

[Cubbies1996]

A 6 pitch inning 😂😂😂😂😂

[Eeyore]

That was a quick three outs. 

[DYMNO]

Great D there, Willi.
