  1. That's about all you can reasonably expect from Cahill in one day.
  2. Have to figure they'll use Ramirez at some point today also.
  3. The worst of it is, after Matt Williams, the Nats fans are ecstatic to have Baker.
  4. Just like everyone expected going into the half inning, Cahill single, Fowler HBP, Heyward sac bunt.
  5. Struggling, erratic, hittable Jake Arrieta: 5 IP, 100 pitches, 65 strikes, 35 balls. Cruising, unhittable Tanner Roark: 5 IP, 93 pitches, 55 strikes, 38 balls.
  6. Depends on whether you consider the 3-0 pitch down the middle to Soler a miss.
  7. I think 2 people think this is over This entire game thread has been like a murderer's row, except on logic instead of pitching.
  8. 3 runs allowed in 5 innings and almost everyone just assumes the game is over. This is how normal teams function, guys.
  9. I mean...that approach is exactly how you increase your OPS. I'm guessing one of the exit velo guys on Twitter will post on of those tweets that say "that Soler ball was hit at x MPH and balls in play at X have a .700 batting average or something." I have now problem with green lighting him on 3-0 when he squares up a pitch on a ball that should find a ball more times than not when it's hit as hard as he hit it. I mean, it's easy to rip on Soler's struggles so far this year, since he's a lone negative spot on a team firing on most every other cylinder, but his approach at the plate has been rock solid in the early going.
  10. Secretly kinda wished Fed swung at the wild pitch with 2 strikes.
  11. A fastball down the middle was the right pitch to swing at. He also hit it very hard, just right at a fielder. I mean...that approach is exactly how you increase your OPS.
  12. A fastball down the middle was the right pitch to swing at. He also hit it very hard, just right at a fielder.
  13. That's a bit disingenuous of an end point since it includes a five day break for an injured wrist.
  14. Looks like the Cubs may have to score runs to win today.
  15. The dirty secret they won't admit is that the Cubs were better than the Mets last year. They were just fortunate to play their best four games of the year that series.
  16. Cubs haven't played the Mets yet. ..
  17. Why would you want Lackey to stop pitching 1-2-3 innings?
