  1. The horror. We might only be 4 games clear of the Nats for best record in baseball (and 5 in loss Column)
  2. I'm not saying this game is over but doesn't it seem like we always lose before off days?
  3. Guy with .500 SLG hits a home run??? I'm convinced this is just an act these days
  4. I get anxious in a "I want everyone to recognize how good the Cubs are" kind of way
  5. Base runners not caught stealing? I guess that plus passed balls
  6. Yeah great idea to throw first 2 pitches in the dirt with Montero back there
  7. Is there a stat for "extra bases allowed" by catcher?
  8. Hammel's on deck Meh, he's pitching great, he has hit the ball well in both ABs and he was at like 70 pitches. I'm not saying it's an easy call but I would consider him batting there if he comes up. (I realize that if I'm not 100% certain you warm someone up but yeah) Then again I'm a moron so what do I know. I at least know I'm not bring Richard in there.
  9. If I'm the Nats and I see Richard warming up and Coghlan on deck I intentionally walk Russell. Especially because they likely have a lefty warming up
  10. I don't think that's what you had in mind. No but at least he made him throw 7-8 pitches
  11. Why in gods name would anyone much less Clayton Richard be warming up?
  12. Javy please do something besides strikeout
  13. Yeah you really don't want a 6 pitch inning there Now Strasburg can go 8 or maybe 9
  14. Cardinals SOS - .499 Cubs SOS -.494 If you consider the "good" NL teams outside of STL and CHC to be the Nats, Mets, Pirates, Giants and Dodgers, the Cardinals have played 22 games against those 5 teams, the Cubs 20 games.
  15. Strasburg is like begging for us to light him up.
  16. Rizzo is going to do some damage here...or not
  17. Yeah it doesn't necessarily mean you are a bad player. In fact, it can sometimes be a sign that you make a lot of contact and don't strike out a ton.
  18. He just took the team lead ahead of Zobrist with 7, which is tied for 30th in baseball. DJ LaMahieu and Albert Pujols are tied for the MLB lead with 12 GIDP
  19. [expletive] Heyward. Cubs have 4 hits and a walk in 3 innings but Strasburg has only faced 2 over the minimum and only thrown 48 pitches.
  20. Strasburg is trying to nibble and his command isn't completely there which is a really really bad combination against this Cubs team.
  21. I thought it was off the bat :( But I'm watching on a grainy feed so, what do I know
  22. Yeah Strasburg isn't impressive today. Makes me even more upset that we gave him 2 outs on the basepaths. We could have had him at 60 pitches after this inning.
