  1. Still hate him. Hated him with the Cubs but appreciated the pretty good season. Debated whether to click on this thread because I knew someone would post a picture of him.
  2. Who is #4? Grimm and CJ are probably on the same level but: 1) Joe seems to use Grimm in a more prominent role than CJ and 2) it sounds cooler to say "4 best relievers" instead of 4 of the 4-5 best relievers
  3. Lol we won a 1 run game against a probable playoff team where our starter went 4 innings and our 4 best relievers were unavailable.
  4. Strop was on pace to return next week with Rondon but apparently tweaked his groin and his timetable is pushed back 2 weeks.
  5. Glad to see Starlin finally unlock his 20-25 HR potential as he's at 19 now. Too bad the rest of his numbers look very meh
  6. That's the thing that's great about Chapman. Even if he's in a jam and not pitching well, he still has that 100+ MPH heater to fall back on. Other pitchers that get themselves in jams put themselves in a position where they have to throw their best pitch over the plate and it's not good enough.
  7. Chapman is going to be unavailable for 2 days after this
  8. He's making good contact. This will be interesting conclusion either way
  9. Nope. I mean, if Joe wants to win this game he has no choice but we really need Strop and Rondon back for close games. We don't "need" them to maintain a 14-15 game lead
  10. Ok maybe 3 days in a row is not good for him
  11. We won't be able to use him tomorrow night. Which sucks because Montgomery is starting. Luckily we will have reinforcements from AAA
  12. I'll never hate Willys aggressiveness but he put us in a tough spot here unfortunately
  13. Strop and Hector better be healthy for October
  14. Where is the love for Carl Jr.? He's good too I'm just saying how the pen will likely shake out
  15. Who cares we are a big market team. Pay that man!
  16. I mean I guess it doesn't matter much because the pen should be Grimm-Strop-Rondon-Chapman but it's insane that these guys cant throw strikes with huge leads
  17. It'd be nice if anyone in our bullpen could throw strikes with a 4 horsefeathering run lead
  18. Really hope wood can have a good inning so we can save Chapman from a 3rd straight day of work
