Cubs (Boyd) vs Pirates (Oviedo): 9/17/25, 11:35am

Boyd is still bad, I guess.

[Neuby]

that escalated quickly 

 

[BKHoo]

Boyd has been pretty bad the last month. It continues.  

[soccer10k]

Remember when Boyd was good? That was fun.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Yeesh, he has been terrible 

[KCCub]

Sigh I was hoping Boyd was a machine and all our inning concerns would be moot, but appears our concerns are coming alive. 

[Neuby]

Boyd might the Game three starter at this rate. 

[UMFan83]

22 ER in his last 29.1 IP

I know a couple disagreed with me on this but I just think Taillon might get that 3rd game if necessary over Boyd.

Boyd isnt close to what hes been these last 6 starts combined

I don't know.  Right now, I feel more comfortable with Jamo.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Joey Bart, lol.

[PackLandVA]

That dreaded 2-out walk started this.

[UMFan83]

holy horsefeathers this inning is still going?

Edit: OK now its over

Gonna need more than 4 today guys 🤷‍♂️

[Neuby]

Ciavle should start the next inning, it might be already too late to start resting Boyd but no reason to not start today.

[WhyCantWeWin]

Boyd is definitely cooked, the inning workload has to be a part of this

[mk49]

Jeez, why is it so hard to score more than 4?

[UMFan83]

Fun fact after the Cubs squander a 2 on, 0 out situation: the Cubs have scored exactly 4 runs in 4 consecutive games

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Jesus, horsefeathers pull him.

[We Got The Whole 9]

This is getting out of hand. Need a quick grounder to Boyd please.

[Rex Buckingham]

Get him out and give him a week off. He does not have it, and hasn't for a while

[chibears55]

Boyd done...

 

[Neuby]

Not Sure how Counsell lets him finish this inning. 

[UMFan83]

Of course the Cubs would have a chance to clinch with a win, score 4 runs in the 1st before getting an out going against one of the worst offenses in baseball only for our all star ace to completely implode.
