  1. Right, it would of been nice to split these last 6 games of their extremely difficult schedule to start the season but in the end of you were to have told me they'd be above 500 after today and in first place, I would of been happy, especially with their top 2 starters down. These next 18 games, they can not let down and go into any kind of funk. They are all very winnable games against opponents that aren't even close talent wise that they just finished playing the last month, I expect no worse then 12-6.
  2. Funny how when you change up a batting order that was clicking, that bottom don't look so good anymore and the top not hitting with guys on base.
  3. Wait, I can't watch the game today without Roku
  4. Be nice to have a closer who can come in and just get outs without the drama
  5. All these teams has that 1 guy that likes to hit against the cubs
  6. So instead of facing Lindor and Soto to start the game, he gets to face them with 2 guys on base đŸ¤ˇâ€â™‚ī¸đŸ™„đŸ˜…
  7. Bullpen game tomorrow, Keller starting https://x.com/Taylor_McGregor/status/1921026503283761264?t=gaWPOODTqLbMKdW3Rm1irw&s=19
  8. What makes it worse is that with both Steele and Imanaga out they're going to probably need 4+ runs most games going forward to have a chance. They have 3 middle/bottom rotation guys and 2 rookies that are going to be getting matched up against teams top starters, those games are going to be tough ones to win.
  9. Boog and JD don't want to be full time announcers
  10. Counsell waving the white flag on this one, he's got Pressly in there and it only the 6th inning
  11. The curse has started, shouldn't lie about the Pope 🙄🙄😅😅 https://x.com/WatchMarquee/status/1920538400785903996?t=rVpHtsrHMapV5Nhil0M_Vw&s=19
  12. Only getting 4 out of him tonight, but yea someone from the pen gonna have to go long.
  13. Series is off to a bad start, can't afford to use up the pen tonight with Horton going tomorrow and on a pitch count most likely.
  14. They can't steal bases anymore, fun offense is over â˜šī¸
  15. Maybe Hoyer can look into this.. Probably would need the RedSox to eat some salary though. https://x.com/mlbtraderumors/status/1920590194723401973?t=dbXXFTpm_tmsG7fvllC_pg&s=19
  16. Yep, don't turn these 2 losses into a longer losing streak.
  17. The depth is the biggest problem, these guys on the bench aren't exactly momentum keepers when they're in the lineup or PH for someone. I dont remember which analyst said it, but he mentioned that a good bench player is someone a manager can count on to just help keep good momentum going for a lineup when they get an opportunity to start, whether it in the field or at the plate. Cubs outside of Catchers, they don't have that guy they can count on consistently on that bench, you're just hoping they don't lose the game in the field or kill rallies when they bat.
