  1. Easily the most depressing. I expected some struggle but not to this extent. Grounders and pop ups make up about 70% of his batted balls and fg shows 6% LD, which... Ooof. Even if that number may be slightly inaccurate, whatever the case may be, it's not going to push it into a range of non-concern. Dude is just flat out getting dominated at this point.
  2. BN pointed something out that I hadn't really noticed but MiLB teams are playing the same opponents for the entire week. The Reds and Rays absolutely dominated Velasquez, but he feasted on the Angels system, with just a 16% K rate and a 12% BB, along with monster wRC+. Makes sense considering the talent level in those systems. So now he's getting his 2nd look at Chattanooga. First game didn't go too well but hopefully we start to see some improvement this week.
  3. This was a seriously sad home set. Those guys should be ashamed.
  4. Quintana is gonna be worth more WAR in his time with the Cubs than Eloy will in his entire career. Yeah but Cease
  5. They definitely had money to go Rodon over Stroman and we could have grabbed Manaea for some spare parts as well
  6. Hitter claims to have been hit on the hand, shaking it off in evident discomfort. Pitcher takes exception, either saying it didn't hit him or that he's playing up the damage. Decides to stare down and chirp at the hitter, who is a behemoth, and gets absolutely decked. Then once he comes to, he tries to attack a different opponent and proceeds to get curbstomped in a 1-3. Ouch.
  7. Someone please peek into the future and tell me we don't let him finish his contract
  8. PCA and Nelly had fantastic nights
  9. Sprained MCL for Middleton is what Budenholzer said is the preliminary diagnosis. We can steal this damn series.
  10. So we can beat an elite team
  11. I know we'd be nowhere without DeMar but JC put this dude's ISOs in check right now
  12. Giannis is going nuts on both ends
  13. He does have great EV against and gets a lot of IFFB that contribute to that. Can we just get him to throw more strikes. No big task right.
  14. I would option Frazier. Not sure what he's bringing to the table at this point. At least Hermasillo can fake it in CF.
  15. Bummer. Villar is an horsefeathers for not getting us 1 more Suzuki AB.
  16. Sorta. Counts, though. https://www.bleachernation.com/cubs/2022/04/19/pete-crow-armstrongs-first-pro-homer-was-a-weird-one-even-by-inside-the-park-standards/ Well damn lol PCA doubled. That's progress, too.
  17. Nah it looks like he will get another AB possibly
  18. Willy has to eventually come through with runners on, right
  19. Feeling really good about Villar getting this run in and fully ready to witness some weak ass pop up or something.
