  1. pretty dire performance from the offense today.
  2. only two line drives at outfielders that inning, no biggie
  3. also screw the fact that we only have two runs today and they were both unearned
  4. what do you guys think alcantara will do after his playing career is over next year
  5. schlitter with no pitches below the belt to venable
  6. i thought his stuff looked great until the sixth
  7. for some reason schlitter is warming up instead of being waterboarded in the bullpen
  8. not at all confident in lester finishing this outing strong
  9. i caught the ball the same way when i played outfield in high school. my coaches haaaaaated it.
  10. Yeah, I'm gonna cut him some slack for not swinging at a 97 mph heater that may or may not have been a strike on the inside corner. if he had swung his bat probably would have exploded and stabbed bryant at third base. chris was unselfish and took one for the team.
  11. Eh, the throw was fine, beat Kemp there easily the throw was well short and on the wrong side of the bag. if you want to be a catch and throw catcher you should probably be able to do both of those things.
  12. bryant still putting all of his throws in the path of the runner
  13. if the contract turns out to be a big problem, it will say more about our horrifically disappointing payroll going forward than it will about lester
  14. miguel montero ‏@miggymont26 6m6 minutes ago Let's play ball !!! biggest game of the year today #wearegood let's go cubs
  15. I'm really not getting what's going on with Jackson. He hasn't pitched since 4/10. Either he's dealing with an injury, in which case he should be DL'd, or Maddon doesn't trust him as anything but mop up duty, in which case we're better off choking down whatever money he's owed and call up someone who might play once in a while. jaxon is insurance for a rotation injury until wada is back
  16. i guess we are waiting for wada to be back before cutting jaxon/paying his entire contract and trading him for a 27 year old a ball reliever, but i'm pretty disappointed in the lack of an inventive solution to this issue. just stashing him on the 25-man and effectively lighting a roster spot on fire is not a good way to handle this at all.
  17. if alcantara is going to be a black hole and never play, we should probably let him go to iowa and play every day while some nobody comes up to be a black hole and never play. unless we're going to say screw it and bring russell up in the next week. http://i.giphy.com/kmBe7ulPXY0KI.gif
