Damn, this is only Conforto 2nd AB, seems like it was 2 hours ago that he hit his HR 😅

Great job by Civale to get out of that

2027 rotation as of now... Steele, Cabrera, Brown, and Assad Boyd Mutual Option Holmes Player Option Horton likely out til August

Shota about to give up the lead

Hit the damnnn pole Slammy for Happer There ya go

Let's Go Happ, do something

Good spot for Bregman to get that longball now

Conforto must of thought he was pinch hitting and got ahold of one. Let's Go Already

Looks like he finally found a barber, maybe TMac finally said yes to have breakfast with him this morning 😅

Hes gonna be over 60 pitches in 2 innings, he might not even get through 5 today

After the first 3-4 guys, I think Counsell just throws darts for the rest of the order.

Finding a way to lose.. 2-0

The Cubs need to shake up the lineup a little bit from the same ol same ol that theyve had going the last couple years. Theyll have 4 potential spots to add someone new to it. DH, C, LF, and RF, not saying to change all 4 but at least 2 new bats would be ideal.

15

What might help them is 9 of final 15 is at home in September where it might be cooler and wind blowing in.

I dont think holding the glove up is helping Imanaga much

Game 100 of 131 giving up a HR for the Cubs.. 2019 Orioles hold the record with 126 Games. Cubs season record is 117 Games by the 1999 staff. Both are reachable with 31 games remaining.

This why I laugh RCAL It so predictably funny seeing this horsefeathers every game with the homerun.

Yep, lose this one, Phillies will be just a game back of them.

I get what youre saying, and that probably the only hope they have and hopefully is Counsell plan. is to add Rea, Brown, etc.. pitchers that can go 3-4 innings in the bullpen, and then hope to get a solid 4 from their SP and then follow up with another starter to get 3-4 innings. Problem will be hoping these pitchers wont be giving up multiple runs, cause they all aren't the most reliable starters. Then, the Jeckyll and Hyde bats... It like every other week these guys go through a handful of games where they look like they can't do anything against good or bad pitchers. Phillies have 3 solid starters, Dbacks have 3 solid starters, Dodgers have 3 solid starters if Ohtani pitches, Braves have 2 really good starters, Brewers have Mis., and Padres have King. So, its not going to be easy for the bats to help out the pitching if they're giving up those 4+ runs. There's no see i told you so with this team because everyone can see that this team dont have the "pitching" or that stopper SP that can carry a team through the postseason. They have a good shot at getting through the WC round if they can hold onto the 1 seed, but the only real hope for this team to get through Division round or further is for these pitchers to pitch way over what theyve been doing all season and pretty much everyone in the lineup are hitting. I'd rather be told to hand in my 2026 fan card and see these guys get to the WS, then be one of many that dont see this team with enough good pitching to get to the NLCS

Day 3 of how do they find a way to lose a game to Seattle 🙄

Because its so frustrating and stupid with this team, that all you can do to save your sanity is laugh it off, because of course they found a way to lose a lead or game. Usually its by giving up a homerun of course.

I know, was just in frustration hence the annoyance rolling eyes emoji, it was posted above about Webb being the only reliever in circle of trust. Just frustrated

I dont have any real winning expectations for this team, theyll probably make the playoffs outside of a collapse in September, but I dont expect them to do much. This team despite being 18 over 500, just have too many negatives going for them as a whole.

Lmao.. Can't trust Webb either 🙄🙄🙄
