  1. Oh, thank god Almora is hitting 2nd vs a RHP tonight
  2. In fairness, nobody knows what’s a strike tonight
  3. Yup, or Zobrist at 2B and Javy at 3B vs RHP. Or Happ at 3B, Javy at 2B, Zobrist RF and Heyward CF
  4. We need to get some of that D’backs BABIP luck
  5. Tommy can get the horsefeathers off the team any time now
  6. Kyle was awesome tonight for the most part
  7. What a stupid game. Kyle deserved better, he’s looked really good. The ump and Caritini really fucked him tonight
  8. The ump and Caritini have cost Kyle like 25-30 pitches
  9. Britton, arguably, wasn’t even a top 5 option. So yes. Conley, Yates, Pressly, Soria, Barraclough, Steckenrider, Lugo to name a few.
  10. I just don’t think he’s anything special and his stats now are likely his peak. He doesn’t walk, he doesn’t hit for power or the ball overly hard, he doesn’t hit RHP, he has to run a crazy high BABIP to carry even a decent average and he’s slow as horsefeathers so I don’t buy the infield/GB hits continuing, he’s an awful base runner and he is a good but not great fielder who already is slow and as he gets slower I fear he can’t handle CF. He has a nice contact/hit tool though and handles lefties well, which obviously is nice to have on the current team construction. But to me he seems like a 2-3 WAR OF as his ceiling who is incredibly contact/BABIP dependent for value, not exactly hard to replace and if someone wants to buy in to his unsustainable batting average and diving/running/jumping catches meaning he’s an elite defender I’d be all for selling out now.
  11. Bucholz has gotten 2 calls this inning Hendricks hasn’t gotten all night
  12. Apologies. Think we posted at the same time and didn’t realize another one was up until now
  13. That inning should’ve been a lot easier and like 12 fewer pitches. But good job, Kyle
  14. Isn't it his left shoulder? Yeah it’s his left shoulder and I don’t think they’ve said or know how exactly it happened. The theory out there I’ve seen is it was on a slide to 2B and he jammed it or just from doing too much cage work/BP. It’s a problem that he claims has flared up in the past in college and the minors, KB claims and rest takes care of it. Hopefully so.
  15. He’ll probably have surgery after the season, the way it sounds. I would assume if this was a surgery situation he’d be shut down. The Cubs aren’t the Mets.
  16. Drop Bryant Add Jose Ramirez
