    Oh man, Canario. Interesting route to the ball. And JD with the perfect call, "Grandpa's got the joystick again!"

    The Cubs don't attempt many stolen bases, but when they do, it is obvious why they don't attempt many stolen bases.
  3. Irrelevant Dude
    With a lineup composed of three outfield reserves, and Cooper and Madrigal.
  4. Irrelevant Dude
    He looks like a baby deer out there.

    Luke Little coming in with Amaya catching and a runner on third... Haven't we seen this before?
  6. Irrelevant Dude
    Wind blowing hard left to right? I thought Cooper's ball to LF was going to be a home run, and Wisdom's looked like a routine fly ball to right center that almost carried into the basket.
  7. Irrelevant Dude
    That can't be true because they said the winner plays Miami Friday night and Miami is #8. So it's like a double play-in for the 8 seed or something?
  8. Irrelevant Dude
    I still don't understand how this whole play-in things works and I contend that it is dumb even though I have no idea what it is. But this has been an entertaining game.
  9. Irrelevant Dude
    It would have been great if the Cubs had swept, but it is encouraging how they have bounced back on multiple occasions from what could have been demoralizing losses.
  10. Irrelevant Dude
    Over/under 0.5 innings before the Cubs bullpen gives up the lead?
  11. Irrelevant Dude
    To be fair, he has a grand total of 10 at bats through the first 17 games, so it's hard to expect him to have any sort of success in his infrequent at bats. But life isn't fair, and I don't think any number of consistent at bats are going to turn Mastrobuoni into a legitimate MLB player.
  12. Irrelevant Dude
    I really want him to retire as a Cub. I'm hopeful that, when his time with the Cubs is done (which it appears may be much sooner than later), he will walk away rather than trying to hang on somewhere else. I know that isn't usually the way it goes though, and he'll probably keep pitching as long as someone will let him.
  13. Irrelevant Dude
    Yep, that's why I don't think a 6 man rotation makes sense at this point. The starters don't need extra rest. That isn't the problem.
  14. Irrelevant Dude
    Good thinking Drew. Save your arm for tomorrow.
  15. Irrelevant Dude
    Eh, there's not a ton of downside. You lose the runner at third and gain a runner at second. Still need a hit either way.
  16. Irrelevant Dude
    This one has been thrown away multiple times, but the other team keeps throwing it back.
  17. Irrelevant Dude
    So, uhhh... who pitches the 10th?
  18. Irrelevant Dude
    Fake baseball, Now with extra bad pitchers.
  19. Irrelevant Dude
    I'm fine with walking Carroll there. Maybe they lose the game right here, but IF the game makes it to extra innings at least he won't be the runner in second.
  20. Irrelevant Dude
    I guess any non-closer bullpen inning where they only give up 1 run is a victory. I'll take it.
  21. Irrelevant Dude
    Pitch clock violation. Brilliant.
  22. Irrelevant Dude
    New pitcher. Walk the first batter. That checks out.
  23. Irrelevant Dude
    A few nice picks by Busch tonight.
  24. Irrelevant Dude
    Damn, that's two near inside the park homers tonight.
  25. Irrelevant Dude
    Makes sense, but I would prefer to skip the "trouble" part.
