    Yup so far David Ross and Jon Lester have made the best contact off Kluber over the first 18 batters
  2. UMFan83
    YES my jinx worked or something
  3. UMFan83
    dammit that was our chance of getting a hit this inning
  4. UMFan83
    People who say they like pitcher's duels are dirty liars. Yes I certainly enjoyed yesterdays game a lot more than this one.
  5. UMFan83
    I've noticed that too, he's making good pitches to quickly get weak contact when behind in the count.
  6. UMFan83
    OK unless the anemic 7-8-9 of the Cubs order manages to get on base we will go to the 7th with a perfect game going on.
  7. UMFan83
    OK its not cute anymore. Get a hit or a walk or something.
  8. UMFan83
    If we get mowed down the rest of the game, the narrative will be to take this game and the sale game as islands amongst offensive explosion and say the Cubs cant hit good pitchers. That narrative will be ignoring hitting Shelby Miller hard of course but I can see it coming from the idiot media.

    wow i thought for sure a run was scoring one way or another when that ball was hit. Fantastic play
  10. UMFan83
    Meh, until he sucks in the actual season, I'll still go with the "had multiple injuries most of the year"/"preseason doesnt matter" combination of excuses.
  11. UMFan83
    Well 49 pitches through 3. If we can make him work, we could get him out after 6
  12. UMFan83
    That's just cruel
  13. UMFan83
    I just think its hilarious that Lester, who is probably the worst hitter in baseball history, insists on forcing one of the worst position players in the league into the lineup every time he starts. It's like insisting on playing 4 on 5 in the NBA. Edit: OK on second thought maybe not that bad because Ross brings defensive value and Lester is a very good pitcher, but its still a handicap that doesn't have to be as bad.
  14. UMFan83
    Well that was Ross's one hard struck ball this month
  15. UMFan83
    Hahah Ross saw the replay on the scoreboard and put his helmet back on and walked out before the call was even made
  16. UMFan83
    Haha waaaay foul
  17. UMFan83
    What The [expletive]
  18. UMFan83
    What The [expletive]
  19. UMFan83
    That Rizzo dude is pretty awesome
  20. UMFan83
    what way is the wind blowing today?
  21. UMFan83
    Not a pretty AB from Schwarber
  22. UMFan83
    [expletive] I was relatively near the park an hour ago and a light afternoon work schedule. But now I'm in Wheaton Fake edit: whoops I missed the part about you having to like the person
  23. UMFan83
    well that would explain the groin tightness
  24. UMFan83
    Jay Ratliff suspended 3 games for violating substance abuse policy. The hits just keep coming
  25. UMFan83
    He will get his shot in September.
