Derek Law rocketing up my list of favorite non Cubs these days -
Ugh.

No idea what adjustments Spiers has made but feels like we're getting frozen by a lot of strikes all of a sudden.
-
Fantastic hustle by Taillon to get to first there (am I doing this right)
-
Cubs fans get mad when Cubs have lost 2 tough games in a row in a playoff race and have a season-long human gas can on the mound, film at 11
-
Something about him immediately shutting opponents down after he's surrendered the lead somehow annoys me even more.
-
Lmao I left the room for 3 minutes and he gives up another one.
-
Good recovery by the offense. Should be in the Reds bullpen before long. Hope we've got 4 or 5 more in us today

The RB who scored 4 TDs flipped from Notre Dame right after Deion went there. Hard to complain about what they have at that position, but still a little sobering. -
It's malpractice to have this horsefeathers on the mound in a playoff race.
-
Oh look, another one.
-
horsefeathers Taillon is the worst signing in the history of this franchise. At least Heyward brought defense.
-
The minor league season is over, I believe, so there's no opportunity cost, but yeah I don't get it either.

Great time to crap the bed twice in a row with one of the worst pitchers in the sport set to start tomorrow

My 9 were

9/9, 105 score. Possible to kind of cheat the system if you know what squares to put certain guys in. Related - anyone know how to put spoiler tags on mobile? The option doesn't come up for me.
-
I agree, could be some recency bias in play but facing the Braves was utterly terrifying even though we managed to take 2 of 3.

For now he's part of the bottom recesses of the pen, but yes.
-
Excellently timed dong by Happ, you can now dig deep into the bottom recesses of the pen for the 9th.

This Wicks guy is good, I tells ya

Well, that would've been much more fun with 2 on than 0 on, but a lead's a lead.

I guess it will take Matt Rhule longer than 1 game to wring out the lose-every-close-game DNA of that program. -
They needed 12/15 votes, and according to ESPN got exactly 12. Clemson, Florida State and N Carolina, who all want out of the league, voted no. NC State had been voting with Carolina but apparently flipped. This is all so stupid.

I think the late-blooming thing is a big part of it, but writ large this is probably the biggest factor. From college football I've learned that in so many words, athletic departments consider it almost a failure if games fully sell out because that means they didn't charge enough for tickets. That dynamic is surely in play with MLB franchises too.

I'm not as optimistic as you, it's more likely teams didn't value the 3 or 4 starts they might get from him over the PR hit they would take for claiming him. But a win's a win, I guess.
