  1. Reds improve to 2-11 in one run games this year despite allowing the first 2 hitters to reach, hitting the 3rd batter, giving up a double and then a deepish fly ball
  2. Trends: 1-8 in last 9 games 4-13 in last 17 games 11-21 in last 32 games
  3. Just gonna keep getting runners thrown out at historic rates
  4. I hate bunting and giving up the last 2 outs but if you are really gonna hit madrigal here, might as well use him to bunt (though I wouldn't hit madrigal here) GIDP waiting to happen.
  5. At least they blew it in the 7th today instead of the 8th or later
  6. It's almost like the luckiest pitcher in baseball was destined to start giving up a lot more runs at some point.
  7. Wisdom is in the game for Tauchman
  8. You do realize Dansby Swanson is up right? Edit: or was up
  9. lmao Reds are 1-11 in one run games and they gonna just mow us down for the final 9 outs. Of course they'll probably tack on 2-3 more runs so it wont be a 1 run game.
  10. The only batted ball luck we get is bad batted ball luck
  11. The bat struggles have turned from "no one getting on base" to "getting on base acceptable amounts but not scoring very many"
  12. We just can't seem to win. Kick in the balls daily.
  13. Happ really looking comfortable up there. People too quick to bury him.
  14. Cant believe the NFL made the Bears play in the HOF game, give up one of their home games for a game in London and made them the Hard Knocks team all in the same season. I love it though
  15. What starters are left to return? Just Wicks right? Our pen is still pretty bad. It will help to get him back but I don't think in house options alone will make the bullpen decent.
  16. Am I reading this pessimistically? Probably...but this is what Carter Hawkins said the other day about going after a big bat: On the surface this seems logical, but based on how we've seen Jed and co operate, it sounds like a FO that is going to be hesitant to pull the trigger on any major moves that would sacrifice the prospect capital they've built up.
  17. Cubs are now 206-233 since Jed's "retool not a rebuild" began. We're in the 4th year of that retool. In the 4th year of "we're going to lose on purpose and not apologize for it" gut rebuild, Theo's Cubs won 97 games and made the NLCS.
  18. Why cant the Cubs win a game like 8-1 or something? It seems like every game is a loss (most of the time) or a nail biting 1 run victory.
  19. Busch's out there had a 105 mph exit velo, was hit 394 feet, and had a .930 xBA
  20. How many warning track shots are we going to hit today.
