  1. "with the pen he has"... the pen that just came in and ended the threat right away last inning and is off to a good start this inning. The pen that delivered in game 1 of this series. I don't care what CC's reasoning is. It is an indefensibly bad decision. If they lose this game it's on him.
  2. I wasn't aware that a win in May is worth less than a win in September. The Cubs should not be playing the "save the bullpen" game when they have a 2 or 3 run lead in a rubber match against a rival. Whether it's in April or October.
  3. There was no good reason to let him keep pitching against the middle of their lineup for the 3rd time, after a 4 pitch lead off walk to one of their worst hitters. It's indefensible, whatever the reason for it was.
  4. Once again, Counsell trying to let a vet get thru 5 innings and qualify for a meaningless win then doing what's best for the team. lol at not having anybody warming up before this inning started..
  5. Starting the inning with a 4 pitch walk to one of their worst hitters lol
  6. I thought he got that RBI sac fly and then the wind blew it like 30 feet back towards the infield.
  7. That's a possible game changing play by PCA. Nice throw!
  8. Gotta admit Vargas is a real nice player. His baseball savant page is redder than the devil's ****
  9. Busch just missed one in each of the last 2 games, that was a no doubter
  10. I understand the logic of saving the bullpen and letting Jamo get shelled. but this feels like a different game at 5-1 instead of 7-1 in this spot. oh well.
  11. He showed up in the playoffs last year and i’ll give him credit for that, but he’s objectively not a good starting pitcher at this point in his career. I can argue that he’s been mediocre 3 out of his 4 years here Edited for typo
  12. I’m pretty sure Taillon got rocked the last time he played the Sox too. Dude never shows up when it matters.
  13. Taillon is a bum. Thank god he’s a free agent after this year
  14. True.. the entire AL is pretty crappy right now except those 2 giants in the AL East.
  15. A huge reason why they are so good right now is that they got Teal, Meidroth, and Braden Montgomery (top 30 prospect) in that deal from the Red Sox for Crochet. That's as good as it gets - 2 starting big leaguers and a slugging corner OF with upside. One more deal like that but more pitching prospect heavy? They'd be set. Probably the best farm system at that point with a lineup full of young talent already at the MLB level. I don't think Martin will ever have a season like this again, personally. And I think the pitching market will be the same as it was last season.
  16. If I'm the Sox I'd trade him for a haul this year. His value has never and will never be higher. They are unfortunately not that far away from being a damn good team. I thought Getz was an egg head but he actually seems competent.
