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.
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
Are we not counting the reliever? Did he get sent to Iowa?
I would have liked the Cubs to have gotten a lefty reliever and maybe another bat but this is the kind of buying I was expecting given where the Cubs are at.
