    If we can't even count on Lester to not suck, this could be a rough season

    Do you think the Bears wished they knew Maclin would be released before they signed 47 mediocre WRs?

    it seemed like the biggest ovation was when he got his ring. The ovation to lead off the game was noticeable but subdued ...or at least it seemed that way on TV

    THE CUBS HAVE SCORED MORE RUNS THAN THEIR OPPONENT OVER A SUFFICIENT PERIOD OF BASEBALLING
  6. UMFan83
    Less than 2 bounces?
  7. UMFan83
    Oh, CSN decided to show errors for their onscreen graphic instead of runs

    It is such an usual feeling to feel good when Heyward comes up against a dude with a 100 MPH fastball with a RISP and less than 2 outs.

    Lets go Wade Davis, make your once a fortnight appearance count!

    the hottest hitter on the team is up with the game on the line

    Good things happen whenever Rizzo goes the other way at the LF

    I want to say in advance that I am not a huge fan of Strop in this situation.

    I've never seen a catcher have as much trouble catching the ball on a consistent basis as Willy does.

    But again, ignoring results, Jay vs. RHP was a lot more optimal than Almora vs. RHP or Schwarber vs. LHP. If the Cubs offense was hitting, there's no way he would have done that, but with the bases loaded 1 out in the 6th inning in a tie game with a horribly slumping offense, I don't mind Joe wanting to give the Cubs the best possible matchup in that situation. Plus it takes the worst hitter (currently) and fielder on the team out of the game. I must have missed why Contreras got into the game though...I didn't understand that. Jay hits lefties well, could have skipped Almora and gone straight to him. You have to know theyre bringing in a righty if Almora bats. I dont mind the way it way it went down, though. Good point!

    Dammit we missed out on a Siegrist vs. Rizzo matchup :(

    Can't wait to see Kyle Hendricks PH'ing in the 11th inning because our bench is down to just Javy now.
  18. UMFan83
    Inches from a 4-2 lead, instead we have to settle for a tie game
  19. UMFan83
    and of course he GIDP's 2017 Cubs y'all
  20. UMFan83
    He does have the highest average exit velocity on the team for the season so at this point, I don't think it's a fluke
  21. UMFan83
    Chess match in the 6th inning, but I get it...with the way the offense has gone, you want the best matchup you can get in for this critical AB. Schwarber vs. LHP and Almora vs. RHP are 2 of the worst matchups you can get for the Cubs.

    Heyward is pretty damn good right now. That one was into the wind against a situational lefty too. Would have been a 3 run HR on many days
  24. UMFan83
    Thank you Spaghetti....damn Heyward could easily have 2 HRs today
  25. UMFan83
    Yeah Addy is all about weak popups more than K's. I think his K rate has gone down this year.
