  1. Damn I thought that would drop. Oh well he didn't strike out or GIDP
  2. I wouldn't be opposed to Javy bunting here (Might be one of the dumbest things I've ever said here)
  3. Oh God please bring Broxton in. Please please please please
  4. You know he's really not a bad pitcher right?
  5. Wow he has some reverse splits this year. .269 BAA lefties and .176 against righties am I reading that right?
  6. Very nice. Now Contreras Soler and Baez due up Actually with the way I'm predicting things tonight Joe will have Miggy bat instead of Soler even though a lefty might be coming in
  7. Damn. Carpenter up, no where to put him and a pitcher that is having a lot of trouble throwing strikes
  8. I literally cannot not make a big deal out of a Cubs cardinals game. That's why I have to keep reminding myself of the stakes every 30 seconds
  9. If you ever get frustrated with this team for any reason, pause this video at 35 seconds. Ski I suggest you run it on loop 24 hours a day
  10. horsefeathers I totally forgot we had Edwards available. Joe wants him to avoid him pitching 2 nights in a row so badly that he's going to bring Lackey in and screw up his rotation. Wait 12 game lead chill the f out umfan
  11. Oh God Lackey up. With his recent 1st inning struggles this should be interesting
  12. Cubs are 3-16 with RISP tonight. Those 3 hits were an IF single, Coughlans big hit and a bunt single
  13. See Jason if you hit a weak grounder hit it there
  14. Not the optimal result when he was trying to walk you
  15. He hit a walk off against the Cardinals in 2013
  16. Yes but were talking about 1 spot in the order (7th vs 8th) measured against having Willsons bat in the 9th vs David Ross against a tough righty 6th vs 7th, which takes the possibility of him coming up with a scoring situation this inning completely out of the equation. Think it's 7th vs 8th since Heyward is in the game unless you were talking about how many spots away the pitchers spot was
  17. Tough [expletive], you threw 3 pitches and we only have one other pitcher in the pen that's available. Be a team player. What are you going to do, go into the clubhouse and fire off your gun in protest? Sometimes you just don't treat every game like it's game 7 of the world series. Yeah the game doesn't matter much but we gave up a big price for a rental and he won't come back into the game after throwing 3 pitches? Seems like a low risk move
  18. Yeah I thought about that but we're talking about 1 spot in the order Given that it's still about 92 degrees with a ton of humidity, maybe it's just Maddon getting Ross out of the game? Like you and the announcers said, going to Montgomery is the move you make when you're up 12 games Again if you are getting Ross out of the game, why does he take the AB against a tough righty. no matter how bad Willson is struggling he's going to be a better choice to hit there than Ross against a righty
  19. Wasn't it probably just a double switch to put Montgomery in that spot? Yes but were talking about 1 spot in the order (7th vs 8th) measured against having Willsons bat in the 9th vs David Ross against a tough righty
  20. Tough horsefeathers, you threw 3 pitches and we only have one other pitcher in the pen that's available. Be a team player. What are you going to do, go into the clubhouse and fire off your gun in protest?
