  1. I love how Sutcliffe is acting like the presence of Hoby Milner warming up is some strike of strategic genius. Like yes its great to have a guy like him there to hurt a Sheets PH but he’s acting like it’s a brilliant strategy no one could have accounted for
  2. I swear I know we’re 3 outs from winning the series but this Padres team has driven me nuts with a half dozen ABS overturns a game, perfectly positioned fielding, lucky bounces etc. I know the Cubs have had some fortune too but I’m ready for this series to be over.
  3. Damn I’ll definitely take having the lead after that
  4. They do get too long sometimes IMO but I think the difference is an ABS call can be confirmed definitively within 5 seconds and if given more time they could bog down the game by challenging every call.
  5. Getting completely destroyed on ATS this series. Another example there, we don't challenge a strike call when the ball was clearly out of the strike zone and they challenge a terrible ball call firmly in the strike zone. Instead of 2-0 or 1-1 its 0-2.
  6. Busch has to stay in because the Cubs probably don’t have any more healthy players to take his place.
  7. The Padres are starting to be obnoxious with their ABS challenges
  8. Really not sure. Thought maybe he had a light workload lately and needed to get some work in but he pitched 2 days ago and then 2 days before that
  9. Tough play but Dansby gets paid a lot to make that.
  10. The ABS thing is secretly helpful for the umpires. Normally you can just blame the game on the umpire for the non-strike call in the 5th but instead people will just be mad that we used our challenges up early.
  11. This by far is the most I’ve seen ABS affect a game. With Miller looming that’s horrifically bad luck to get rung up on that
