  1. this ump's strike zone is trash, but it seems to be helping the Cubs more than the Pirates
  2. 1st pitch to Bellinger after 3 straight walks is a gift of a strike
  3. Hoping for 4+ innings and no more than 3 runs given up... anything better will be great
  4. I mean, if you can't score 3 runs against a bad team, you don't deserve to win... but that was a horsefeathers call
  5. Feels like Ross might have tried to squeeze one inning too many out of his starter... again
  6. The number of former Cubs farmhands floating around in bullpens is pretty impressive... Z, Hatch, Jackson, Brooks Raley, Tayler Scott, Pierce Johnson, Paul Blackburn (starting in OAK), Duane Underwood Jr., Bryan Hudson, Tyson Miller, Alex Lange, and Cory Abbott are all bouncing around... not to mention any international signings that I can't name off the top of my head
  7. another early-round Cubs draft pick who didn't work out for the Cubs in the game...
  8. A trade for Alonso seems like a good place to use a guy like Alcantara. Maybe add a Gallardo/Franklin type and Christian Hernandez or Ed Howard? Is that too much? A good prospect at the top, a decent mid-rotation type pitching prospect, and a MI prospect who has lost a little luster
  9. 7 homers, 15 ER in his last 3 starts according to Boog
  10. I remember seeing some forfeit lineups under Maddon and Dusty... right now it seems like a forfeit lineup every time Smyly starts
  11. Think we could actually see 2+ innings out of Wesneski tonight? Maybe actually have Smyly serve as an opener without announcing it ahead of time?
  12. The only person you could possibly make an argument for would be Wisdom. And even if Wisdom is a butcher in the field, he offers way more with the bat in the right match up
  13. Lyles now has 3 quality starts on the year... Can't believe we haven't done more against this bum
  14. Sutcliffe spouting some BS about guys in 17 and 18 "taking ABs for themselves and not for the team" and calling them out for trying to "hit HRs and pad their stats." Hey moron, you know what helps a team win games? If all their offensive players hit a bunch of dongs and have good stat lines
  15. Jefferson Rojas homered again
  16. That outside corner to RHs is really extended today
  17. Well, this looks like the inning where all hope is lost for a comeback
