  1. Bellinger is typically pretty sharp on the bases, really weird that he thought he was just going to coast home without a play. What a break for the Cardinals
  2. Why didn’t Belli slide? Easy go ahead run if he slides instead an inning is over
  3. What a horsefeathers terrible AB for Seiya with runners at the corners and 1 out. edit: Dansby bails him out
  4. What a disaster, first 4 batters reach against Smyly.
  5. So glad we signed him and Mancini to 2 year contracts.
  6. Maybe he can get former Cub Fred McGriff to do a chat on the site
  7. I was thinking maybe they were opening with a right hander so that the lineup would have more lefties in it or something for Smyly but looking at splits, he's getting hit much harder by lefties this year. Plus everyone knows Fulmer isnt going more than 1 inning considering he pitched today, so even if that was a valid strategy, you'd just balance your lineup to factor in 1 inning pitched by a RHP.
  8. Maybe giving Smyly a breather too since he’s been absolutely terrible lately
  9. I don't want to see anyone hurt, especially not Willson, but I'm 100% sure Willy was hitting a 2 run HR if he wasn't plunked.
  10. Cubs win! Didn't have to make it so scary but good stuff.
  11. Seiya! Really nice grab. I thought that was a definite double.
  12. In all the enjoyment of that moment, I didn't even realize the DP grounder was also a ball. So Leiter comes in, gets ahead of the 1st batter 1-2, then throws 9 straight balls, of which 8 were taken, and gets 2 outs.
  13. Oh yeah, that was the worst screw job by an umpire that I've seen since that Dodgers game in April where all 3 Dodgers outs in the 9th were on clear balls that were called strikes.
  14. Your problem TT (and I'm being 99% facetious here) is you just won't let us meatball for a bit over here. Edit: I love you TT
  15. lmao, with the bases loaded and 1 out with the Cubs up by a run, Leiter throws 5 straight balls and still gets out of the inning. That is horsefeathers hilarious.
  16. Did the entire team just decide that throwing strikes is stupid?
  17. 3rd time in the last 6 appearances he's walked 2 guys. Dude scares me in high leverage situations.
  18. Fulmer is clearly not a high leverage pitcher this season. I know we don't have a ton of great options but come on.
