    Read something about the Cubs looking at the Angels' Soriano and, it sounds like taking on Kikuchi' bad contract. I like it, most especially if relieving the Angels of a bad contract lessens the prospect cost for Soriano.

    Skenes was pretty good right out the gate, we all saw it, biggest difference is this guy doesn't have Skenes' control. It's to bad Skubal is going tonight, Skubal - Skenes tomorrow would have been fun.

    Velocity doesn't seem to bother the Cubs all that much, they can handle it, key is Misiorowski' control. I expect the Cubs will attempt to grind at-bats out, draw some BB's and get to Misiorowski.

    The Yankees, for all their offensive fire power, have not scored a run in 19 innings vs the Angels. Shutout over 6 innings by Kyle Hendricks (9 K’s) tonight.

    Love it, getting the series opener was key, Cubs will definitely get one of the next two. I think the bats are starting to awake, it’s coming. Except for Swanson, he must be moved down, I believe Craig will do it soon.

    Canario with a 2-run single, Pirates up 3-2 on the mighty Tigers. Maybe the Pirates aren’t as bad as we think and the Cubs aren’t terrible for only winning 3 of 4.

    Tonight is key, get this one and they'll get at least one of the remaining two games. Really interested in tomorrow' match up, Misiorowski has a history of spotty control, guys with control issues aren't very effective against the Cubs. If he walks a Cub an inning they'll score some runs.

    Brewers have had a tough time with Brown and we appear to be back on the bad start - good start cycle again. Last start for Brown was bad, this one should be good. Guess we'll know within the first batter or two if the Cubs hit the Ben Brown lottery tonight.

    Appears it could be a sneaky good haul, out of curiosity I looked at the return for Betts. Not sneaky good, just plain not good, in the end it appears to netted a back up catcher - Connor Wong - very not good.

    If the weather cooperates, the Cubs will win today, bats will break out - Ian Happ said so after Saturday' win.
  11. gflore34
    If this does happen, could it possibly push someone to 17 who may not have been available prior to Wood going up the draft board?
  12. gflore34
    Well, I'm glad he didn't bite the Cardinals, guess, I'd be OK if he had. Gilbert also just got off the IL, that may be a factor.
  13. gflore34
    That's 6 perfect innings, 13 K's.
  14. gflore34
    Bring them on, if the Cubs can manage that stretch with a record of 16-12 or 17-11, they'll be comfortably ahead in the NL Central. And, it appears, vs. Seattle, the Cubs will miss Gilbert, Woo and Castillo? I see Gilbert' scheduled today followed by Woo and Castillo on Wednesday. Guess, I might be wrong about Gilbert, he'll probably be scheduled for the series finale but, they're definitely missing Woo and Castillo.

    True enough but, if they keep hitting balls with 100+EV they're going to score some runs. Not even one of balls is going to be knocked down by wind or at someone.
  16. gflore34
    Is it the wind again? Not watching but, noticed the Cubs have hit quite a hard balls - 100+ Ev, with nothing to show.
  17. gflore34
    Yes, that is the mitigating factor.
  18. gflore34
    He does, although, the only hard contact that inning was O'Neil, they didn't exactly crush Rea that inning.
  19. gflore34
    Rea, and it no even close, while inconsistent, Brown has the stuff to dominate, Rea has no capacity to do so.
  20. gflore34
    This and the Pirates line up is, to put it kindly, not good.
  21. gflore34
    Looks as if the Brewers caught whatever the Cubs had today - Pallante averaging 5.9 SO9 already with 5 thru 2. Cardinals winning is the best outcome for the Cubs today.
  22. gflore34
    Without the wind Busch and Swanson go back to back in the 6th.
  23. gflore34
    PCA, Happ, Hoerner, Suzuki and Tucker all with big numbers vs Keller, Cubs are going to score some runs tomorrow. Lots of them, which is good, because, as can be expected, there's a good deal of Pirates with big numbers vs. Rea. When Shota comes back, Rea is the first who should go to pen. Followed by Brown after Jed makes a deal for his replacement.
  24. gflore34
    Okay, let's be optimistic, this is inning they break the seal.
  25. gflore34
    Shaw 0 for his last 12, 2 for his last 21, don't think he's hit the ball hard in a while, time for him to adjust. The league has found something that's working.
