  1. Zo you are due for a hit with RISP buddy Edit: or inexplicably bunt in the air for an easy out
  2. Dammit Szczur aim better we needed that
  3. Im pretty sure that every single time Joe has gone away from Strop in the 8th Rondon in the 9th it has failed and the opponent has tied it or taken the lead.
  4. roundabout way of saying, he's not a great defensive player I'm guessing he's probably saved more runs than he's caused this year but probably not by a lot at this point
  5. Now do you burn an out at the plate with Strop? I guess if it was still a 1 run lead yes
  6. Well that lead lasted like 15 batters. Good work Cobs
  7. Javy is a great defensive player but his awareness is lacking
  8. [expletive] how did we Cub that one up? horsefeathering hell
  9. I bet the Pirates manage to convert on a 1st and 2nd no out situation here
  10. They are really extending Lackey. He looks like he's lost his command a bit
  11. Man we really suck at the running game this year. Both controlling it and benefiting from it offensively
  12. Aghh we just need that one big hit and can't seem to get it. I have a hard time feeling confidence that this lead will hold for 12 more outs
  13. I think Willson has had a runner on 3rd for every AB today
  14. Well you can if the circumstances change and your decision changes. But at that point there's a possibility it's not going to be seen in time.
  15. Also another terrible slide by Javy lol. My first thought was that he tore up his knee.
  16. PS Almora might have saved his roster spot today when Dex comes back. Bye Szczur
  17. I'm all for ignoring Gary Jones but that wasn't a great decision. I get that Lackey was on deck with 2 outs but he had a higher liklihood of getting a hit or there being a WP than him rounding 3rd when the ball was already in the IF.
  18. Apparently hitting the ball on a line up the middle means guaranteed out for the Cubs
  19. Should I put myself through watching the next half inning or run an errand or something?
  20. Probably that they go back to pitching well. Just a hunch. It's pretty funny how high people got when we had like 5 of the best 20 starters in baseball, but then when the inevitable regression happens - albeit rather annoyingly in a terrible 3 week stretch - people lose their minds. Did you really expect Lester to maintain a sub 2.00 ERA or Hammel to not turn into a post-June pumpkin? People have trouble wrapping their heads around it because it inexplicably happened to 4 of the starters at the same time and not just went from giving up 1-2 runs a game to 3-4 runs. They went from 1-2 to 5-6.
  21. He's a hero for all the Mike Olts out there looking to overcome their handicap and play in the bigs.
  22. I've never seen an OF have more balls bounce off his glove than McCutchen. What a weirdo
  23. How many batters does the lead last?
