lol good effort agonz
-
lol this horsefeathering umpire
-
damn I kinda wanted the pinch hitter batting for a reliever to win it
-
huh. Let’s see if the rarely used and controversial “pinch hit for a relief pitcher when you have a chance to win the game” strategy pays off for the Mets.
-
if you truly have FIVE unavailable relievers going into a game you need to make a horsefeathering roster move
-
really went into this game with FIVE unavailable relievers?
-
horsefeathers you maddon. horsefeathers you.

hey Twitter, that’s why he sits vs righties sometimes

lol letting heyward bat there with zobrist and almora available

did the cubs run out of pitchers yet
-
what would make game 2 a “disaster?” The worst thing that could happen is that they lose...which they just did in game 1. knowing the cubs, game 2 will either be a 10-3 win or a 10-3 loss. And if not, and a situation comes up where boy oh boy you’d really like to use Cishek but shoot he threw 1 1/3 in game 1, then I guess you just use Justin Wilson which is what you just did in game 1 so what’s the horsefeathering difference.
-
what in the world you liked taking cishek out after two (2) pitches with his spot due up first in the 12th in favor of wilson? I did not.
-
maddon sucks at managing a pen with like 5 good relievers, imagine how much he would suck at managing a mediocre pen.
-
at least cishek will be available for a hypothetical tight spot in a hypothetical game 2
-
maddon horsefeathering sucks at bullpening
-
hilarious
-
hope you're right. he's just looked like horsefeathers to me.
-
what he's been awful. The results have been awful, the approach and the working of counts has been quite good. He has as many walks as Ks and is walking and K’ing at rates in the teens. i mean you are really trying to convince yourself there's something there...
-
Other than KB he’s maybe had the best plate appearances overall this year in terms of discipline and working counts. The results will come. what he's been awful.
-
matheny really worked maddon over there yikes
-
i'd do a free one. people got feisty enough about this when it was free, i don't want to see how everyone acts if there is $ involved.

Shohei Ohtani Signs with the Angels

he'll prolly just wing it -
sounds like I should be happy about illini getting ayo too.

IDK. It's almost like they faced 4 starts in 7 games against guys who will be top 3 in the Cy Young this year. I mean fine but that's not really a good "excuse." for one, josh fields isn't winning the cy young and neither is brandon morrow. also sale and kluber and severino and Hendricks and Lester and greinke and ray and berrios have all had mediocre to horrendous outings. I mean you're gonna face good pitching. the fact that the cubs are sucking against good pitching doesn't mean they're not sucking.
