  1. Conforto just missed, but damn, first pitch swinging and Nico had that base stolen
  2. Need to get to this guy for a couple this inning... Let's go
  3. Tough error for Busch, good throw just got deflected slightly by the runners oven mitt and just tipped Swanson glove
  4. Wasted 2 opportunities to put some runs up, now the Twins are about to have an inning.
  5. First n third no outs, dont score 🙄 They got 1 at least
  6. Would love to see them win 9 of these next 13 games before they go against the Yankees and Dodgers.
  7. Wish theyd get rid of that off day in middle of the first series, it kinda useless. How weird is it to schedule a DH in middle of a road trip, and theyre going to be scheduled to play 17 games in 18 days. 10 road 7 home
  8. Maybe their injuries are a little more concerning if theyre acquiring a guy like this now
  9. Feels to me like hes hitting alot more flyballs then usual, he needs to get back to hitting line drives and ground balls in the hole.
  10. They already said Steele is only going to pitch out of bullpen, I dont expect Brown to be back any time soon with the neck/vertebrae issue. I think after the deadline we can see a rotation of... New pitcher, Imanaga, Boyd, Cabrera, Taillon With a whole new look to the bullpen with a mix of Rea, Assad, Steele and possibly a new late inning arm added to it. Wiggins could be a nice addition in mid late August to pitch out of the bullpen too. The cubs could actually end up with a bullpen of guys who can legit get them 1 time through an order if needed, which would be huge in the playoffs. Of the current pen arms, only Palencia, Webb, Rolison, and Thornton are the only guys id actually be ok with keeping in the pen after the deadline and injured players returns. Maton they have to keep
  11. If theyre going to be a legit playoff team, theyre going to need him, Boyd, and Imanaga to step up and pitch well in the second half. Who knows when or if Brown is returning, Peterson isnt someone they can count on, (wouldn't surprise me if hes DFA or put in pen once they get healthy after August 3rd) and who knows who Hoyer will be able to get at the deadline to help.
  12. W... another series win and head into break just 5 back of Brewers. Now get the pitching in order, and those who bats are cold, do some work to get it going
  13. Are the baseline rules different between first and home then home to first, meaning runners seem to have little wiggle room going to first , but I've seen plenty of runners go wide to other bases to avoid tags or try to interfere with throws and not called out
  14. He got 1 out of 3 batters 🙄
  15. Counsell hoping for back to back good outings out of Thielbar
  16. Happ too, they need them both hitting better
  17. Counsell sticking with Boyd, he dont wanna go to that pen just yet 😅
  18. Hopefully the break dont cool him off
