Lackey...I can't really complain but you hitting the bums on their team....its not good
-
This is totally one of the most inconsistent zones i've ever seen
-
How quickly you forget Dusty. I thank him for the free base runner he gives us this inning
-
I wouldn't say this is the most egregious Dusty stretching of a starter but I also probably wouldn't have sent him out there
-
John Lackey I'd let you put your weird mouth on mine
-
Ah well whatever. He's done for the day anyway. It was one of the first 3 ball counts I've seen him work to. He apparently has 3 walks on the year but I cannot recall a single one
-
Well done. What is this I'm feeling...competitive spirit? Excitement? That this feels like a real challenge and a team that can match up somewhat with the team so it feels vaguely competitive? Strange
-
This ump despises John I can't be too mad, Lackey is a real pain in the ass
-
I'm gonna be honest, if Ramos isn't in the lineup this Nats lineup, even with Revere and Werth hitting a touch more, is just not that scary. You do what you need to do with Harper and Murphy and the rest of the lineup has Bum tendencies Imagine how unimpressive they would be if Murphy's turn into Tony Gwynn during the 2015 playoffs didn't somehow continue.
-
This is one of the worst umpired games of the season from all angles Good thing the Cubs have the lead so I'm not breaking things
-
Our defense looks extremely good compared to the last 3 or so games
-
Wow its a ghost town here. I'll just be Fred and livepost to myself
-
This ump is having an absolutely brutal game. Gameday showing the 3rd pitch as a pitch waaaay better than strike 1
-
This is some primo 2016 Cubs right here. Taking a bunch of pitches, getting walks, getting the hits you need to score some runs. Gonzalez may have a hard time going 5 now.
-
God I'm so glad we have Jason Heyward
-
Oy. A bunt hit and hitting the pitcher really made that happen. Bummer Now we're gonna more or less walk Harper and hope to get the guy basically hitting .400 out, bleh
-
Punish them for their impertinence, Rizz
-
Good Heyward makes me extremely happy
-
Alright Jason, get a couple home
-
Even when he's hitting Heyward is furiously intent on hitting into double plays
-
Pound this pretender
-
Cubs sign Brian Matusz to minor league contract
BigSlick replied to Banedon's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I really like this signing. At worst he's done, at best, we've added a decent lefty to the pen that we're in need of. EDIT: Jesus he's only 29? I thought he was in his mid-30s with how long we've heard about his trials and travails -
Agreed. Even year or not, I don't mind facing the Giants in the playoffs (they're, IMO, a lesser evil to the Mets, Cards or Dodgers in a short series, as little as that may matter) Now, if they acquire Ryan Braun this year as well....hm....
-
Is it really that odd of a stretch though? Basically shows their pitching has been excellent and when scoring league average runs they would go 7-1 in that stretch I guess if there's a weird thing to it its that the Cubs have had slightly *poor* luck in 1 run games, which is hilarious
-
*rubs eyes* Richard pitched a scoreless inning?
