horsefeathers Cohen and Sut. Why do the Ricketts think so little of us?

Really hope the radio syncs well today

It very much does not

[chopsx9]

Umm.

[chibears55]

That didn't take long...

Just DFA him already

[Geographyhater8888]

DFA Taillon already. He’s not capable of getting hitters out.

[javy knows my name]

Missed you, Taillon

😂😂

[Papa Cub]

Great start - 

[JHBulls]

Cohen and Sutcliffe get crapped on, but at least they are better at their job than this loser on the mound. 

[Jason Ross]

Taillon has looked cooked since Spring Training. He shouldn't be on the roster come Aug 4th.

[Papa Cub]

Goodbye Jamo - this should be your last game my friend 

[chibears55]

This one is........

He better be released after this game, this just depletes the hitters knowing they need to put up a bunch of runs before they even get to bat.

Why is JD taking all these days off out of the break ?

Said it before, if these guys cant show up to call baseball games for 162 days, then replace them

This isn't to defend Taillon at all but Savant is making it seem like the second home run was at least somewhat wind aided (xBA was .220). Hadn't seen an official read on the wind, kinda weird weather out in the suburbs, but hopefully we get some help on our end too.

Hopefully the bats have another 10 in them again today

But it's pretty clear who they would be replaced with, right? Isn't 100 games of JD and Boog better than zero?

[UMFan83]

Despite missing 6 weeks, Taillon has moved into a tie for 4th with Shota for most HRs allowed this season with 22. 

[squally1313]

of course that was a 1-2-3 inning.

Im in the minority here, but i don't mind Cohen as far as calling the games. I think hes pretty good with that part of it.

So hes gonna go 6 scoreless with 10 Ks

🙄🙄

[profisme]

PCA driving the ball the other way is a good sign. Great play by the dumb shortstop though.

I reckon it has more to do with Marquee giving everyone on their roster a go rather the announcers themselves. Before Marquee, we had Ken and JD consistently for 162 (outside of illness of course), now with Marquee there are multiple people doing the same jobs. Boog, JD and T-Mac are the main ones, but then they will get replaced for days and sometimes a week at a time with Cohen/Sut/Demp/Floyd/Elyse/Lance etc. It gets annoying because as fans the main people will always sound the best.
