They did tie the game, Otto Lopez with a 2 run HR - good to see these average type players do damage to someone besides the Cubs. Alcantara has had a good deal of bad luck, he's made some good pitches.
-
Brewers get 3 in the most Brewers way possible, bloop single (PCA might have caught it), two run GB single that hits off Alcantara.
-
Marlins have been playing well of late, believe they have a real good chance tonight.
-
Suarez/Kelly will also work towards the Cubs putting the NL Central in their rear view mirror.
-
If Jed could add, say a Lugo and Cabrera/Acantara + RP, at the deadline, I believe the Cubs will bury the NL Central. You can feel it coming.
-
Shaw with his first HR at Wrigley? Have a feeling it's coming at some point this series.
-
Shaw will get it going this series, he's close, was encouraged by the good swing and contact he put on a 100 mph FB last night. Along with PCA, it's been a bit, think he'll get into a few this series.
-
Thanks, kind of cool to hear an Australian accent talking baseball.
-
Watching Royals/Mariners, Lugo doing well 6IP, 1HR, 2BB, 6K's, wouldn't mind if he's one Jed's deals. Although, I don't agree he'd cost more than a lottery ticket, he's 35 and essentially a rental (player option for 26). If India was part of the deal that would command more, maybe, Alcantara and another fringe prospect. By the way, is the Mariners color guy from Australia? Anyone know?
-
He was great tonight, bounced back from the last start, didn't miss location much, if at all.
-
Something big is on the horizon for Shaw, it's coming. And, seriously, how the horsefeathers is Flexen 5-0?
-
I'd like to see Busch get the start tonight, this is not a Skubal, Luzardo, Gore type LHP. He's s soft tosser whom I believe Busch can handle or, at very least, be more of threat than Justin Turner. This guy isn't much different than Walter maybe slightly worse.
-
Not to mention, nearly all the Cardinals' staff is a great match up for the Cubs. Almost the whole of their starters are just perfect for the Cubs - nothing over powering, keep the ball down, right hand dominate - they've crushed these guys.
-
Appears Lopez is on the the 60 day IL? If so, I'd think he'd be removed from consideration by the Cubs.
-
True, I've watched Mason Miller have such struggles on a couple of occasions this season.
-
Honestly, if Shaw doesn't miss that GB it's probably a drama free inning. Still I'll take the W!
-
Okay, let's be positive, Dansby will deliver and put the game away.
-
Matt Shaw HR? His first at Wrigley, if anyone deserves one it's Shaw.
-
That was such a BS top half there, dribblers for hits, it's only fitting a LD goes for an out.
-
Bibbe up to 70 pitches, they'll get to him for at least, the tying run, if not more.
-
It'd be great if they could get this one, I've little faith in Horton tomorrow. Not trying to be down on him, nevertheless, hasn't really shown anything to give me faith he'll be effective.
-
I believe a lot of his fastball getting clobbered has do with location. I may be wrong but, it appears he leaves many pitches in the middle, middle-middle of the plate which get hit hard. Tomorrow should be a favorable match up for him, let's see if he can put together a dominate start.

Marlins/Cubs Rumors: Trade Targets Available In Miami
gflore34 replied to Brandon Glick's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Yes, let them blow their wad in trading for Alcantara while the Cubs low key trade for Cabrera. -
Watching a little of the Cardinals and Pirates, Gray going for the Cardinals, pure stuff wise Horton > Gray. Big differentiator is location, Gray hits the corners, goes up and down, have yet to see FB middle-middle from Gray. Gray did hang a slider which Pham smoked for an RBI single.
-
Just curious did Horton get any swing miss on breaking stuff the other night? Could it be he's tipping his pitches or given, it's the Astros, something more nefarious?
