  1. Dammit. They're chipping away and starting to hit Jake hard
  2. For all of Heyward's issues he's still a plus defender. Zobrist is not, and his good last 3 weeks aside, I'd rather see him on the bench than Heyward, especially facing a pitcher that has the ability to shut us down. It seems like you're just glossing over/completely ignoring the fact that Zobrist is a much, much better hitter, especially vs. LHP. No, I understand Zobrist is a better hitter against LHP, but I value Heyward's defense more.
  3. I'd say that's overstating it. I don't hate it. It leaves me a little scared, yes, but I'm OK with that. For all of Heyward's issues he's still a plus defender.

  4. Is the NL going to allow Soler to use a Segway to patrol the OF?
  5. It would take Soler 15 minutes to get to a fly ball down the line given the size of that OF. I'd much rather have someone with even below average mobility out there.
  6. *Inexplicably runs out of the kitchen* It's really amazing how that show basically is as bad now as it was amazing then. How TF does that happen? Every promo I see on Fox for a new episode makes me cringe at its badness. Here and there, you get a good episode, although the La-Z-Rider couch gag intro was terrific and I wish that were the actual show now.
  7. Hopefully Maddon doesn't overthink the LF issue. Just stick with the same lineup as Games 1&2. We'll be fine.
  8. That's a tough way to lose
  9. I'm sure it's just pessimism but I feel like chasing the starter usually results in the offense quieting down.
