Mets (Peterson) vs Cubs (Horton): 9/23/25, 6:40pm

I'm hoping Craig just jumped the gun on pulling Horton. No updates yet. Not sure if good or bad

[Derwood]

This game being blacked out is absolutely the right decision (for my mental health)

If only Kyle Tucker was put on the IL one of the two times he was playing injured instead of letting him aggravate the horsefeathers out of his injuries and putting him on the IL in the last two weeks of the season.  Thank you Craig Counsell and Jed Hoyer. Brilliant! 

The mishandling of Tucker is criminal.  That alone should rightly result in a quick 2-and-out rejection at the hands of the Padres —in San Diego

These TBS announcers are rooting hard for the Mets.  And the one needs to shut the horsefeathers up about Horton being injured.

I mean I get it. The Mets are desperately trying to stay in the playoff race and just came back from a 5 run deficit. The Cubs quest to secure home games in the WC round is nowhere near as compelling to a national audience.

Ugh Dansby let that ball go by FFS

Swanson like clockwork with bad errors down the stretch. Every year unbelievable.

Idiot!

So Cade is dead? There’s no way the plan was to have him throw 29 pitches.

[Derwood]

Weird, a bunch of brand new accounts show up to white knight for Charlie Kirk. Surely this is just a random thing...

I'm sure the audience is huge in NY, if they can bear to watch.

lol a hanging slider he lazily pops out to center with. Only 4 more seasons of Dansby 🙃🙃

Surely he’s injured.  There wouldn’t be any other good reason.

[chibears55]

At least we have the Blackhawks to switch to now 🤷‍♂️

[Connor McConnor]

Cleveland has caught the Tigers.   Our slump has been bad, but jeesh.

You must not follow the Cubs the last few years. Look up errors against the Arizona and others when they were in contention down the stretch, idiot!

[Guest]

Maybe Cade has another blister

[UMFan83]

Sucks that we might have wasted our one 5+ run game this week. 

[UMFan83]

Also a little humorous that once again opponents don’t see to have trouble hitting HRs into the wind but the Cubs seemingly can’t.

If he was injured it would of been reported by now from McGregor, theyre limiting his pitches now for the playoffs. 

This is likely his last start til Game 1 next week

If I heard correctly this morning, they said no team has ever blown a 15 game lead

Even though home vs away isn’t decided?  I’m not saying you are wrong but that would be poor strategy IMO.  We still need wins.

Whatever dude. Your just a troll and a miserable human being. You have proved it through the year and in case we weren’t sure you confirmed it the last 2 days.

That horsefeathers Anderson is trying to talk a Horton injury into existence.

[JHBulls]

Cade Horton’s back tightening up makes sense. He’s been carrying this team for weeks.
