Alright… maybe let’s take out Hayden
-
I’ve seen this one before
-
Who we talking about?
-
We’re so good at hitting that we can afford to give up outs on the bases. Shouldn’t be a problem at all. Pretty sure Hicks threw maybe 2 pitches actually in the strike zone.
-
horsefeathers it. Bring up Caissie.
-
Love missing mistakes
-
Wouldn’t be a 1 run Cubs loss without a nice fake rally and another out made with RISP.
-
I’m all for benching Nico or at minimum hitting him after Busch, and probably Dansby.
-
Why not PH for Amaya there?
-
But we are #3 in largest difference between xBA and BA, #2 in xSLG and SLG, and #2 in xwOBA and wOBA. We’ve been bad, but also very unlucky.
-
Of course the .410 ball scores all the runs
-
Not that it horsefeathers matters, but we are benching our best hitter so that we can give Tauchman, and his .575 OPS over the last month, the most ABs today. Craig Counsel is just the unenthusiastic version of David Ross.

Letting your starting pitcher go more than 93 pitches. Tyson Miller. Hayden Wesneski. Hell, even Colten Brewer. I’m far from a CC hater, but that move was perplexing. And that doesn’t ALSO mean Hoyer hasn’t failed everyone.
-
The bullpen is bad, magnified by the offense’s inability to score runs, and contrasted with tremendous starting pitching to produce the maximum amount of annoyance. Oh, and I have quite a bit of money on the Cubs over 84 wins.
-
Of course
-
I was thinking the same thing. Weird spot. Who the hell is closing (if it even gets there)?
-
On record of not liking removing Steele
-
I think he starts the 7th. Before that inning started I thought he’d be pitching into the 8th.
-
Oh okay. I’m mostly distracted by my kids and half paying attention in the background.
-
Did PCA go first to third on that bunt and it go unnoticed by JD/Boog and whoever does the tv scoreboard?
-
Woof. Back to looking like complete horsefeathers

Glad as horsefeathers I missed the last couple innings of this one -

I have no desire to watch anyone hit other than Busch, Morel, and Seiya. -

Shocking. -
Cubs @ TB. June 11. 5:50 Central.

As soon as Tauchman didn’t get PCA in from 3rd with 1 out, I knew the game was over. So predictable.
