Pirates (Chandler) vs Cubs (Taillon): 4/12/26, 1:20pm

[Soul]

Fun times.  

[Papa Cub]

Gong to the Phillies game tomorrow - facing Sanchez too……who knows, they may actually hit him. Can’t be any worse than what we have seen this weekend. 🤷‍♂️

[JHBulls]

Dansby destroyed that baseball. Damn. 

[ILMindState]

At least they horsefeathers the bed early so I can move on with my day instead of giving me false hope for 11 innings 

[Eeyore]

I'm so stupid that I look forward to watching the games 🙄

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Yay

[JHBulls]

Mo looks like he might have a heart attack every time he runs the bases, but he sure can crush a baseball. I like him, hopefully it all works out and he’s here to stay. 

[mk49]

We need a runner or two, when they hit HR's.

Very cool to see Mo hit, though.

yeah I don't want to complain about solo home runs but man it feels our HRs only come when we don't have people on base. and we leave a lot of runners on base.

[Jason Ross]

I lied. I just wanted to sound cool to fit in. I'm still watching.

Home runs are fun.

All of our hits seem to come with no one on base.

[chibears55]

Need 4 more solo shots 🤣🤣

[chibears55]

They lose this game, they will have gone 1 and 5 at home against the Nats and Pirates..

2 series you'd expect no worse than 4 and 2, that the difference from starting 9 and 6 or 6 and 9 🙄🙄🙄

[JHBulls]

Whenever you’re ready to make the move Craig, that’d be nice. 

[Derwood]

Maybe don't throw FB's to Brandon Lowe

[chibears55]

Lol...

Yeh, theres 16 games left this month against Phillies Mets Dodgers and Padres,  ill be surprise if they win 6 of them.

This could be a 12 and 19 start to the season entering May

[We Got The Whole 9]

Throws it down the middle again. Stop trying to steal strikes. They ain't falling for it.

Because Baseball is so dumb, they’ll probably be over .500 after that stretch. 

[Tryptamine]

So, being the eternal pessimist, at least the Cubs will have a ton of trade bait if they continue play like ass.

Bullpen is gassed, Martin Roberts and Barnes is about it today, gotta try and squeeze out 6 from him today.

Hitters gotta rally for crooked numbers over solo shots today and get 10 up there

We can hope

[Geographyhater8888]

Another high fastball. Shaw can’t catch up to high velocity.

Lol, that what I said yesterday 🤣 

Kelly Swanson Shaw Happ and Suzuki should be able to net a few decent prospects in return 

[chibears55]

Nico a hitting machine,  I hope he can get to 200 this season,  that would be cool
