Well that wasn't fun.
-
Felix has nothing. Don't let him off the hook here, Cubs.
-
So is there a way to see pitch locations for previous at bats in the new MLB Gameday? They got rid of the old one (which was the good one) which allowed you to view the pitch locations for all ABs in the game.

And now, even though Syndergaard labored through 5 innings with 105 pitches, he throws him out there for the 6th.

Tony Wolters is not a good hitter. He has a career .671 OPS in the majors (153 PAs) and a .683 OPS in the minors (1877 PAs). He has been walked intentionally twice today by Noah Syndergaard to bring the pitcher up. Both times came with two outs and a runner on second. Keep up the good work, Terry Collins.

Especially after what he said in the offseason. http://m.mlb.com/news/article/162325972/jonathan-lucroy-prefers-trade-to-winning-club/

As long as this is just a one start thing, I'm fine with it because it means I'll swap out a Hammel start for an Arrieta start next weekend in Oakland (seeing Hendricks either way).
-
It was at Avaya. It was around 90 degrees when the game started but we purposely bought seats on the West side of the stadium so we were in the shade the whole time and quite comfortable.
-
sweetpeteman is still up for the next thread. He posted a few times during the game and I sent him a PM so hopefully he'll get the new one up tonight.

Run differential game!

RIZ!

You were really showing a lot of loyalty to keep him on your team that long Thought about dropping him earlier but then he picked it up in June. He's been bad in July so I had to just cut bait.
-
So this entire slump was your fault? As long as I get credit if he turns it around then I'll absolutely take the blame for the slump as well.

One day after I drop Heyward from my fantasy team, he hits a dong.

MLS All-Star game was so-so tonight. Stadium was really nice. Only quibble was they have the players enter through the walkway under the stands and block the fans from crossing. Cool idea except they won't even let anyone walk up into the stands unless they have a ticket to that specific section (i.e. no going up and walking through sections). So we were stuck underneath for 15 minutes. Good idea, poor execution. Game was slower early but picked up in the second half when most of the Arsenal reserves came in. Could definitely tell they were out there to make an impression. A lot more attacking and more urgency when going forward. I was disappointed to not see the Arsenal players who were in the Euros and Copa. I know it's shortly after that but most of the dudes from the German team showed up to Portland a couple years ago and at least played a bit. Also disappointed in the lack of chants. I know it's an All-Star Game but the Timbers Army did a bunch of chants throughout the game a couple years ago. Not sure what the normal San Jose atmosphere is for games but it wasn't nearly as good as I was expecting. And got to see Wondo send a good chance over the bar about 5 minutes after my dad and I were discussing his blown chance against Belgium.

doesn't he have an option for next season? Mutual option for $9M with a $5M buyout.

ADDISON RUSSELL! Ballgame.
-
Shuck played that ball terribly.
-
Do something good, Zobrist.
-
Yeah, it's worst because last year the Cubs just got swept at home by the Phillies.
-
And it was opposite field as well.
-
Ted Cruz just can't offer support for anyone, can he?
-
Cubs add Chapman for Torres, et al. imb wishes we paid more
soccer10k replied to David's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
The Cubs (all teams in MLB) are supposed to have an interpreter on staff. I'm guessing Hank White is the Cubs actual interpreter. So what is Hank White worse at, being a catcher or being an interpreter? I'll go with interpreter since it affects how someone else is perceived. Related note, I went to look up his career stats and started to type in "Hank White" into B-R before I remembered that wasn't actually his name. -
Off to a good start.

Cubs send the guy who's been their best pitcher over the last couple months to the mound to even the series while the White Sox give James Shields the ball. Shields has actually been really good the last 5 starts (2.10 ERA and a 1.05 WHIP). Hopefully Joe does less dumb stuff in this one than he did today. Go Cubs!
