Some frustrating BABIP/sequencing luck these two games. Which is a generous way of saying that there have been some very infuriating big ABs by guys I otherwise like.
-
There’s one. Minor Marquee complaint: I wish that they would flash the radar gun reading over a different spot than the count. Over the outs, or ideally the pitch count. That half second to see what the count is after missing the first couple pitches of the AB (and inevitably getting confused by the hitter being 0-2 or whatever) is annoying.
-
This is going to be a long three innings.
-
It’s annoying that burnes waits until there are guys on base before he remembers he’s an incredible pitcher. Though I’m sure they were saying the same thing about Steele
-
Christ, of course
-
Happ 250/344/536 in the last week before that double. He’s had a couple Soriano esque runs in his career, one would be huge now, and maybe convince people he’s not a fourth outfielder or whatever.
-
Well I've got good news, the Cubs haven't gotten swept in 2 months because they are an above average baseball team who have played really really well in the second half.
-
Very annoying game. Frustrating time to be on the other end of one of these.
-
Hey, we can tout wins and hard hit rates at the same time!
-
I'm not going argue about 12 innings, but he's been fine in the bullpen and was about 3 inches from being fine tonight.
-
12 innings with a 3.75 ERA as a reliever going into tonight
-
Back of the envelope map says Miley has gotten 18 outs without a double play and only one strikeout. And we have 4 hits, two that left the yard. So I believe our BABIP is 2/19 on the day. Not going to comment on the contact quality, but there's a fair amount of bad luck (and good defense) baked in there regardless.
-
6 IP, 4 ERs....probably need to aim a little higher next time.
-
The errors were for the extra bases, not for them reaching base in the first place.
-
Is this good
-
Yeah I’d kinda be fine letting wesneski see if he can catch lightning in a bottle or else just wear this one.
-
Lol
-
Yelich putting that fastball on the inside corner at the knees comfortably over the LCF wall was A very impressive and B probably due to him just picking a pitch/spot, which you can do when taillon misses badly the first two pitches
-
Yeah absolutely. A month ago everyone was trying to figure out how many playoff games we'd get out of being buyers. Which completely overlooks how fun it is to watch a competitive team in the thick of a race for weeks on end. Not saying that Jeimer and Cuas brought us here themselves, but trading Cody, Gomes, Hendricks, etc might have taken us out of getting this.
-
Yeah, a bad series here for me is more problematic in the sense that we'd be struggling going into a road series against Cincinnati and potentially letting them back in the door for the wild card.
-
There haven't been many runs more impressive than the one the Brewers are on. Having said that, they need to end eventually, and more importantly, Wade Miley sucks. Take care of this one, enjoy Steele v Burns, and then hopefully Kyle can steal one on getaway day.
-
After this series, the Cubs have 23 consecutive games against teams with a negative run differential, before finishing up with 6 against Atlanta and Milwaukee.
-
Cubs have 20 runs in their last 2 games.
-
3 runs in 4 innings, 13 runs in the last 13 innings from this pathetic, no good offense
-
Alright there may be something to Belli beating his metrics.
