  1. Not sure how good the relievers in question are but the Guardians basically had the choice to face Dansby and Busch with a righty or a lefty and they chose the righty which is what I would prefer if I were the Cubs. Busch is 7th in baseball in wRC+ vs RHP this year.
  2. Big call to bring Jose Ramirez to the plate this inning but great play by Nico
  3. Cubs baserunners in the 2nd inning: 6 Cubs baserunners in the other 4 innings tonight: 2
  4. I didn’t see a replay but that looked like a swing to me live.
  5. Yes in a vacuum a 3 run inning is always good. But with context it decidedly becomes less good. Doesn't mean I'm not encouraged by getting on base 6 straight times
  6. What’s even more wild is the Cubs didn’t even attempt a stolen base in that inning. 1.000 OBP in the inning 0 stolen base attempts 3 outs on the bases
  7. It’s not a good half inning. We literally did not make an out at the plate and only scored 3 runs. dont get me wrong the 3 runs are nice but that doesn’t make the result of the inning acceptable
  8. wtf 2 outs on the bases this inning. Inning was looking promising again with Shaw 1 ball away from walking
  9. Cardinals just swept the Guardians, shutting them out in 2 games, so I'm sure they'll remain cold this week right?
  10. It's Bowden but he said today that the Cubs are heavily involved everywhere in terms of trade talks and expects them to be the trade deadline winners for the NL Central (whatever that means).
  11. I’m pretty sure both keepers guessed right every time except one each, they just weren’t able to save them all. Freese looks like he booked a spot on the World Cup roster if not starter
  12. Colorado scores again in 11th but has a guy with an ERA near 7 trying to close it out
  13. It's kind of like the end of the 2018 season. The Cubs aren't free falling but it feels like it because the other teams won't lose. Every other team in the NL Central had a winning record in June except the Cubs, but the Cubs were still 13-13
  14. Colorado managed to score a run in the 10th but the Brewers obviously still have to bat
  15. It's probably the part where we had a 6.5 game lead 10 days ago and now its 1 game? I don't think people expected the Brewers to have the 3rd best record in the NL and Cardinals right behind them.
  16. Even with the elite pitching, hitting really hasn’t been a giant issue tbh. Our season OPS is .774, but during this possibly about to be 11-13 stretch our team OPS is .750.
  17. I understand that, that’s the point I was trying to make
  18. Dare I say that’s good because it keeps our WC cushion only only brings it 0.5 games closer if SF wins
  19. I always say the NL Central should always be so winnable in a division with 4 smaller market teams but here we are with the 2nd best record in the NL and there are 2 team right on our ass
  20. Wait a second, they’re bringing in a righty to face Turner with Busch on the bench?? he might be tiring but that makes no sense.
