    I know he missed a month with injury but Shota's numbers (at least the basic ones like ERA and WHIP) are better than last year
  2. UMFan83
    Good motivation for Shota here getting Pressly warming up
  3. UMFan83
    Damn got the righties out but then got 2 straight weak contact singles ugh
  4. UMFan83
    Got through most of the heart of the order a 3rd time too
  5. UMFan83
    Keep it going. Can never score enough with the wind blowing out
  6. UMFan83
    And Brujan has a .493 OPS vs RHP this year
  7. UMFan83
    Probably because they were 6.5 games behind us when their run started it’s kind of like the end of 2018 again. The cubs (obviously) aren’t playing bad but the Brewers are unstoppable
  8. UMFan83
    3 hits and 0 runs in 8 innings so far tonight. The brewers are virtually unbeatable right now
  9. UMFan83
    Brewers beating the Dodgers yet again lol
  10. UMFan83
    FYI the Brewers series starts a week from Monday. Cubs play at home vs KC and then on the South side next weekend before heading up to Milwaukee.
  11. UMFan83
    Not sure but I did see on twitter that Luke Little is with the Cubs this weekend but not called up at the moment. He could probably give them 2-3 innings if they go that route.
  12. UMFan83
    Believe the Cubs have a club option on him for next year for a small raise over this year
  13. UMFan83
    Always felt like he had the makings of a closer if he could figure out his control. He clearly has that control now and looks elite.
  14. UMFan83
    With the Crochet vs. BP game looming on Sunday, feels good to take the first one. Lets win the series tomorrow.
  15. UMFan83
    Kind of feel bad for him... he's given up 2 ER in 22.2 IP since that 8 run blowup game, and people still perceive him as a potential tank commander for a historically bad team haha. I mean I still don't trust him either and his FIP suggests some luck (2.77 since that blowup vs. 0.79 ERA) but he's been fine imo, at least in terms of results
  16. UMFan83
    another terrible strike against Seiya
  17. UMFan83
    Not that the Sox don't have some really good hitters but pretty nice to not have to worry about a Devers coming up here.
  18. UMFan83
    107.3 mph and 98.5 mph. I think it's more where they were placed.
  19. UMFan83
    Something I wonder... correct me if I'm wrong but Pressly agreed to waived his no trade clause to go to the Cubs only after the Cubs gave him assurances that he'd be closer. He was obviously to start the year but was demoted and doesn't seem like he has any shot to regain the role (as we see another ball smoked off of him to bring the tying run up). Doesn't matter anymore but I wonder if he's upset that he was so quickly pulled from the role and not getting it back.

    Seriously its hilarious that the ball boy inadvertently showed the umpire up even though he technically should have seen the umpire pointing fair lol
  21. UMFan83
    Yikes, come on bro how you gonna touch that ball? Edit: nevermind the ball boy was right?!, very astute of him!
  22. UMFan83
    That's fine....as we've talked about a ton lately, keep hitting it like that and it will even out.
  23. UMFan83
    Regardless of ballpark. The wind is blowing E to W right now so directly in at RF. Probably a HR on a neutral day. That also makes it more of a cross wind going to LF I think, but maybe in just enough to affect some of the other batted balls
  24. UMFan83
    Aggressive send, glad the throw was off
  25. UMFan83
    Happs double is a HR in 27/30 parks. Makes up a bit for Seiya's HR being a HR just at Wrigley. Edit: also not a HR at Fenway and Coors.
