Morel is a baller for finishing off that AB when he was clearly in severe pain. Hopefully he didn't fracture something -
How we have scored today: -Fielder's choice -Fielder's choice -Balk -Wild pitch -Sacrifice fly
-
Same, when that ball was in the air I was thinking "I wish anyone other than Gomes was on 3B right now"
-
OK, would have liked to have gotten a hit but ill take the tie. 2 runs scored without a hit.
-
Runner on 3rd out outs and Seiya takes strike 3 right over the plate. Unreal. Now they’re a ground ball from causing me to lose it
-
FFS Seiya
-
Tying run on 3rd with no out. Gonna lose if it we don't at least tie it
-
Really nice job Tauchman
-
the sox are begging us to beat them
-
I believe that is the first time Gomes has reached base since May 11. 0 for his last 21 PA before that walk
-
That’s pretty much accurate and one of the funniest things about the Sox horrible season.
-
I don’t now know about having no life to them but they are remarkably deficient in so many areas. I can’t believe how poorly these pieces fit together and how exposed the holes on the roster get on a daily basis.
-
horsefeathers we suck
-
Just catching up, horsefeathers Gomes is 12-79 with a 47% strikeout rate. Even as a backup catcher that’s atrocious especially when you consider he’s last in the league in framing runs and terrible at throwing out runners. He should not be on a major league roster anymore. Sorry Yan

Minor League Discussion & Boxes, 6-5-24

Nick "0 barrels in Chicago this year" Madrigal: -
Busch is also rated significantly higher defensively. As much as I value a power bat in the Cubs lineup, I've never seen the appeal of Pete Alonso on the Cubs for a variety of reasons.
-
OK then he's the 12th best starter we've faced this year by FIP. Not saying he can't be hit...he just gave up 4 runs in 5 IP to the Brewers last week (shocker). Just kind of in awe of how effective he's been after being such a below average dude in Washington.
-
He's 7th in baseball in pitcher bWAR at 2.6. The only starter we've faced this year with a higher bWAR is Houck from Boston. Obviously pitcher WAR is flawed but at least by that metric he's really solid. Kind of crazy, another one of those mediocre/bad starters that goes overseas and comes back much improved. 5.41 career ERA in 6 seasons with Washington, now one of the best starters in baseball so far this year.
-
I think they had to go rummaging through the equipment locker to find it
-
lol. And they just attempted to pick him off 1 pitch before. To be caught that off guard like that is insane to me.
-
I look at it different in baseball than other sports. If a 15-1 NFL team needs a 20 point comeback to beat a 3-14 team, yeah that would be disappointing. but baseball is so different on a daily basis. Coming back from 5 runs down is great regardless of who they’re playing imo. I get it though, the Cubs have been extremely bad lately and so frustrations are heightened. Anyways, Cubs win. Glad I kept checking in and got to see the last couple innings. Hopefully this is the game that helps them start to build some momentum.
-
Well that is a good thing that happened
-
Neris gives up some hard hit balls so he decides to nibble and walks the 9th place hitter. now a PR is coming in to test our catcher who can’t throw anyone out. ugh
-
Robert Jr lingering just 2 batters away
-
Neris giving up some loud contact. Hasn’t hurt them yet.
