It's the Paul Goldschmidt game.
-
Come on, Jay. At least give me a sac fly.
-
It's the Willson Contreras game which means he's definitely hitting a walkoff.
-
Well this isn't going very well.
-
I love how he says that DeJong is the far superior bat to Russell based off 200 PAs. I bet that guy would have take Diaz over Russell last year also.

Only 6 games back of the Nats now.

This is amazing. You're batting a career .659 OPS hitter third (.619 this year) who doesn't hit lefties all that well (.717 career and .752 this year) ahead of Paul Goldschmidt and JD Martinez. And it's not something dumb that a lot of managers do like batting a fast slappy hitter first because he's the prototypical leadoff man. It's the horsefeathering 3 spot. Imagine if Joe batted Almora 3rd and KB and Rizzo 4 and 5.

Random In-season Musings and Rumors

Nats picked up Kintzler from the Twins. -
As much as I'd like to say yes, they were already crumbling last year. They were 30-42 after the break (68 win pace). Ohh, so close to being nice. I thought about just saying it was a 69 win pace, even though it's not. Probably should have just done it. Oh well. We all have regrets in life.

What is "Things Addison has never told a woman?"
-
Uh, Dex is in baseball hell.
-
Solid call there, Joe.
-
It will be fine. They'll get both.

Wish this game had been on a Saturday or Sunday like every other recent Gold Cup Final has been. Would have loved to go but couldn't swing it on a Wednesday night.

Anymore ridiculous than me recently realizing he is Clay Bellinger's kid? Fun fact: Bartolo Colon has faced both Bellingers in the big leagues.

This is all I could find on twitter: Wasn't there a bad play Rizzo made on the field in the early innings? Yeah I think there was a pop up to Rizzo he intentionally dropped or let fall because the infield fly rule was in play and he was trying to trick the runners. Lackey's small, dumb mind probably couldn't comprehend such an advanced thought without explanation Funny enough, but Hawk didn't understand immediately either. He was happy for a second until Stone said it didn't matter. To Hawk's credit (first time that's ever been said) he said it was a smart play by Rizzo since you never know if a runner will forget the situation.

Rodon kind of got BABIP'd today. Faced 22 batters, 11 strikeouts, 1 flyout, 3 BB, 7 H. Cubs put 7 balls in play and had 6 hits against him.
-
Good job, Lackey.
-
Rodon will give up multiple dongs as will Lackey and the Cubs will win 7-4.
-
That game was dumb. Win the next three.
-
Willy walk off, please.

You know they brought in a righty to face Javy, right? Which they would have done to face Almora also? There was no chance of Almora vs a lefty.
