  1. If Lester takes the at bat, and somehow gets on, do you pinch run with Gore?
  2. I mean I don’t know what we would expect with a guy with a sub-600 OPS against lefties this year. But there he is placed right in the heart of the order I think Joe was counting on getting Freeland out early. So much for that.
  3. If the Cubs are still trailing, he likely doesn't take his next at bat. No way if still 1-0 Barring a home run in front of Lester, his next at bat will either be with runners on in the 5th, or leading off the 6th. He can't be allowed to take either of those at bats.
  4. If the Cubs are still trailing, he likely doesn't take his next at bat.
  5. Brett from BN certainly thinks so Olney mentioned on his podcast today that there is speculation within baseball that Roberts and Maddon could be gone if they get bounced early. Regardless of tonight's outcome, I still find it hard to believe the Cubs would fire a guy 2 years removed from a World Series title and in the middle of a 4 year playoff run. The only way it happens is if the rift between him and the front offense is irreconcilable.
  6. he's going to and it won't be long. i love the first inning ninnies already haha he wasn't really fooling anybody and the hits and runs will come. though, a quick (or relatively quick) shut down inning from jon would help a lot for morale he struck two guys out But they only had a combined 3 shoulders.
  7. ESPN knows, if there is anyone who knows hitting, it's Chili Davis. More wind insight please.
  8. a couple of them were maybe close enough to go either way. jon nibbles, it's what he does This is true, but is he nibbling more now out of necessity as his stuff begins to deteriorate with age? It seems like it, but could be recency bias.
  9. He didn't throw a single strike that wasn't called, and got some outside strikes on top of it. Can't blame the ump for that run.
