Still very encouraging given what we know of skubal going into it and the way he handled the first. Of course, Jameson did not have an encouraging first.
-
Wisdom would probably 200/280/520 his way to an 800 OPS with consistent ABs, but I just don’t see how someone with his contact issues can be expected to give you anything in PH spots and one start a week.
-
4/4. The continued bold decision to hit our second best hitter 7th pays off.
-
All three hitters with solid contact so far. Go candy
-
Having a .714 winning percentage in any amount of games over 1 is probably unrealistic expectations
-
This can’t be right but I’m too lazy to check.
-
Real monkeys paw stuff here

I’m not saying you can’t question the decision Ross made in choosing between like, three terrible options. I’m saying this thread is 95% furious that we didn’t throw out an average AAA pitcher off-turn and then like 4 posts about the 6 runs we’ve scored in 6 innings. After yesterday spending the whole time bitching about how terrible the offense is. We’re down 1 on the road, maybe calm down a bit.

Cubs are going to win, crybabies
-
These game threads are insufferable lately
-
There’s nothing this board loves more than writing off this offense after a scoreless first few innings
-
Their starter has allowed at least 4 ERs in four of his last five starts. He improved on his bad AAA numbers to start the year, but still isn’t good. Cubs offense is more than capable of covering for whatever Smyly decides to do today.
-
Must Win* *comfortably *but also our great RD from earlier in the year doesn't matter because all that mattered was Ws and Ls.
-
Going to be mighty disappointed if Nico and happ can’t get this run across ok there we go, way to run Ian
-
This is the dumbest game I love it so much
-
There's probably a slight difference in performance, but it's certainly not because of some Tauchman vibes thing. Given that he's pretty locked in at the leadoff spot against righties and doesn't start against lefties, we can use the Cubs overall performance splits to see the difference. v LHP: .253/.320/.424 v RHP: .255/.335/.417 So....slightly better against righties on the year, and, very crudely, slightly better when Tauchman starts.

Give me Amaya there please

I've never actually done the math on this, but it does seem like a .300 hitter rarely has stretches where he goes like, 15/50 or whatever. It's a handful of 8/50s, a handful of 22/50s, and over 600 it balances out. As we've all gotten more analytical in all this, it's natural to expect like, one hit a game or whatever. But frustratingly just not how it ends up playing out.
-
Man is Dansby lost. Please find it again.
-
Anyways, go win the baseball game. These pitchers are bad.
-
To join the pessimism for a second, the inevitable Cuas blow up is going to hurt. Have no confidence in him right now.
-
Bellinger, Candy for sure. Swanson and him have the same wRC going into today, but you've seen where Swanson is currently. Morel...maybe? One home run is erasing a pretty bad cold streak of his own. Hoerner no, Suzuki no, Tauchman....you can make a (bad) argument. Said differently: No.
-
100% agreed. You want him there with 0-2 outs. Kinda poorly run by both players. Morel needed to wait until the rundown developed for Nico.
-
That was misguided by Nico getting into that position, and really dumb going all the way to third base and giving Morel no chance to do anything.
-
3 runs through 11 outs from this slumping, ice cold, terrible offense.
