  1. Great night for Rizzo. I'm sure the phone is ringing off the hook for him.
  2. Wouldn't it make more sense to just put Chirinos in RF and Wisdom at 3B?
  3. Might as well go with Maples now and hope he can strike everyone out before he wild pitches the runner in.
  4. He didn't pitch on Monday. Second straight day. Before yesterday, he pitched on Saturday. I stand corrected. I have no idea why I thought he did.
  5. How the hell did he TOOTBLAN that one???
  6. I don't love the idea of Kimbrel pitching in 3 straight games right now.
  7. The Cubs spit on your win probability!
  8. And would you look at that I mean, that inning turned to what it did because of a swinging bunt combined with an error that put a runner on second. I’m not putting that one on Ross. Right. That wasn't a "Hendricks was out of gas" result. I wouldn't have sent him back out, but I'm not going to blame Ross for what happened.
  9. Well, that was unexpected. Kimbrel was filthy again. What are realistic expectations for his trade returns? Better than the Cubs gave up for Aroldis in 2016?
  10. What the hell is "hamstring fatigue"?
  11. Germans love David Hasselhoff, and Ian Happ is really bad at baseball.
  12. Excellent start - The Cubs fail to get a runner in from 3B with less than 2 outs. I love watching Javy play. Flip a coin between him and Hendricks for my favorite Cub. But from a pure baseball standpoint, I don't see how the Cubs can justify giving him anything resembling a big, long term contract.
  13. Sutcliffe really is convinced that this game is make or break for the entire season. That seems like a really odd take for someone who actually played in MLB and knows what a 162 game season is like.
  14. I just assumed this was an extended All-Star break for JD. But in general, it is getting annoying with the number of games that one or the other broadcaster is gone.
  15. That really wasn't as good of a catch in LF as they are making it out to be.
  16. This, and the extra innings runner rule likely going away with it, just made my day. Managers are going to have some adjusting to do next year, trying not to burn their entire bullpen in 10 innings.
  17. The inability of this team to find a backup catcher who isn't an automatic out has gone beyond comical at this point. I have never seen anything like it.
  18. Sending a pitcher (virtually) up in this situation is inexcusable.
  19. What contender is going to be willing to offer something valuable for Ian Happ? He doesn't have much value. On a good team, he is a fourth or fifth outfielder.
