Wow he went up and got that one! Hopefully these 2 hits get him going -
Dammit Madrigal
-
Yeah I’m not an especially strong defender of Madrigal or anything but I’d definitely prefer him hitting there over Canario. Plus for the lineup issues you mentioned.
-
Feels like this entire month was designed to remind us of last September constantly. Losing the games we have a lead in late, now we’re in another stressful extra innings game in Arizona
-
I horsefeathers hate extra innings.
-
I think the umps can still initiate a review in the last 3 innings.
-
Great job using your challenge a few moments ago for a play that was pretty obviously going to be upheld
-
I know he got a bit squeezed there but yet another completely 4 or 5 pitch walk from Neris
-
Ugh, either the DBacks walk it off in the 9th or we have to see fake baseball with extra innings. Not sure which one I prefer
-
Same, I was immediately thinking he had a shot to score. Crazy game
-
Wow that was a terrible AB. Probably limited choices there but dude looked like a guy who has faced live pitching in a game in awhile
-
I can’t even remember the last time Mastro had a PA lol
-
I was waiting for Tauchman to strike out again so I could trash him but instead he got a hit so yay
-
Sure wish our offense wasnt atrocious the last 5 games. Very winnable game in what looked like a lopsided pitching matchup.
-
Michael Busch home runs have accounted for 7 of the 12 runs the Cubs have scored the last 5 games. Someone else needs to hit.
-
What is this pick that everyone is talking about? Some CBA nuance I forgot about?
-
Brown throwing a ton of balls in the early going. Not great for getting 6 innings out of him
-
Cubs cornering the market on top 50ish 1B prospects from NL West teams that struggled in their 1st shot in the MLB.
-
HOLY CRAP. 5 in a row!!
-
It took Seiya 18 days to return from his oblique injury last year FWIW In 2022 he missed nearly 2 months with another oblique injury. Edit: nevermind, it took him 7 weeks to return from the injury in 2023. So 7 weeks and 8 weeks
-
Yeah I thought it was weird that they didn’t mention anything. He slowed up considerably on a ball he had a small chance to beat out and looked at but awkward.
-
So Busch is now 6th in the MLB in home runs, just one HR shy of being at the top of the leaderboard. Pretty fun story, hope he keeps it up.
-
We'll see. Don't get me wrong, they definitely can easily dispose of him if he's not working out, but have to think the Cubs sold him on having a shot to stick on the MLB roster which is why he agreed to a minor league deal with the Cubs after refusing a minor league assignment with the Mets.
-
Crazy that he was playing a college hockey game as recently as Thursday, and 3 days later he's scoring a goal in the NHL @Old Style I have no idea, but I'm assuming there is a logical reason why. Feel like I've seen this happen with NCAA prospects towards the end of seasons. Since Nazar was only a Sophomore (I believe), perhaps this was a deal made to get him to forego the rest of his college eligibility? But I'm literally just guessing. Edit: What jersey said makes sense
-
Worried this means that Steele is going to be down longer than we’re hoping, but it could also be another option should Hendricks not get it together I suppose.
