  1. This is the 5th straight appearance that Drew Smyly has given up a HR in his first inning of work.
  2. They recorded last night's game on DVR and are planning on watching it during tonight's game.
  3. Shouldn't have lost 2 of 3 to the Cubs then
  4. Not really a big deal but I wonder why they have Candelario at 3B tonight and Wisdom at 1B. Wisdom's primary position is 3B and the Cubs are trying to make Candelario their semi-full time 1B, so wouldn't you swap them and let Wisdom play the position he's more comfortable at and give Candelario more time to feel more comfortable at 1B? (I realize Candelario has played 1B in the past but not really all that much)
  5. I'm not taking too much stock into it. I have never seen a full training camp and don't know anything about the ups and downs. I assume there are ups and downs for every team. It's not much better if the offense just dominated the D all camp either, though I'd rather that than the inverse (not saying the inverse is happening). Just thought Mooney's comments were interesting.
  6. Interesting comments by Mooney
  7. you just hate to see that. Means the Cubs can pull to within 2.5 of WC3 with a win tonight (and 3 of the division)
  8. Apparently Velus Jones threw punches at Brisker after he celebrated a pass break up lol. Not sure if its frustration because the offense hasnt been sharp the last 2 days but probably not an ideal thing to happen even though its not usual for fights to break out at camp. Also more importantly, Tevin Jenkins was helped off the field today with an injury and Getsy said he does not have an update on the injury yet.
  9. Yes, after much reflection I too would be ok with an Alonso, Ohtani and Bellinger offseason.
  10. Get this bum out of the game and have Madrigal get the last out.
  11. Playing the role of position player pitching: Michael Kay Also known as: our only lefty in the pen post-trade deadline
  12. And now everyone has a hit! Thank you position player pitching
  13. Yeah he’s quietly been decent. I don’t think hes an everyday starter but he has value
  14. Everyone has a hit except Barnhart and Morel
  15. Willing to wash this one away. Really favorable hitting conditions + comedy of errors in the 1st + pitching with a big lead + good offensive team. It doesn't feel like he's been as sharp as he was earlier in the year though.
  16. Gonna take him a few hours to get here from Iowa
  17. Remember when people we’re worried that his HR power was down?
  18. The Cubs are mashing him so hard they have no choice
  19. Barnhart 0-3 Rest of Cubs 13-21 this is designed specifically to horsefeathers on Barnhart because Morel is also 0-3 and Happ is 0-2 with a walk but I couldn’t help myself
  20. And now we know why the rest of the NL Central has a negative RD
