    This feels like an odd take considering Bellinger has been mostly playing RF lately and likely would be today if PCA hadn't sliced his finger
  2. Illiterate Scholar
    The Dodgers' non-first base infield has had a lot of injuries and struggles, wonder if they'd be interested in Nico as a near term SS, though it looks like Rojas has been good for them. They do have young catching.
  3. Illiterate Scholar
    3rd straight game Shaw has been out of the lineup
  4. Illiterate Scholar
    Well now I kinda wish Dansby was allowed second base on the passed ball
  5. Illiterate Scholar
    The reason is because of the large gulf in Ramos' and Flores' season stats. I wouldn't say that's 100% an easy call with the downside we just saw, but probably the right move
  6. Illiterate Scholar
    Another extraordinary loss
  7. Illiterate Scholar
    Let's not give unnecessary credit to Kim Mulkey, Joshua.

    Haha, I think Alvarez was giving PCA a hard time for throwing a change up into 2B right before that
  9. Illiterate Scholar
    Oh Vic
  10. Illiterate Scholar
    Why did I think Nido was a left handed hitter
  11. Illiterate Scholar
    lol, PCA was basically standing on 3rd when the cutoff man got the ball

    Wisdom has a 141 wRC+ vs LHP. There are very specific things he adds, and he's being used as such.
  13. Illiterate Scholar
    Hell yeah Seiya and Happ. I thought the trajectory of the Suzuki double had sharp line out to 3rd written all over it.
  14. Illiterate Scholar
    By my count, Helsley has allowed 11 baserunners in 4 innings vs the Cubs and is 4/4 in saves.
  15. Illiterate Scholar
    What better time to expand the zone
  16. Illiterate Scholar
    I'd be very curious to know the Cubs' internal evaluation of Shaw's defense at third base so far. Error wise it seems totally fine but obviously there's more to the story than that
  17. Illiterate Scholar
    You could tell by Martinez' reaction, he thought that Belli double was gone. And I'm a little confused myself how that stayed in.
  18. Illiterate Scholar
    I don't have data to back this up, but it feels to me like more pitches in the zone have been called balls this year so far than in years past. The older umps with huge zones seem to be adjusting to avoid the robot takeover and may be overcompensating
  19. Illiterate Scholar
    xBA of .520 to get us right back into the game, with more runners on base, turns into a DP Followed by that complete slop of a hit
  20. Illiterate Scholar
    We've seen pitches in the location of that HBP get called strikes
  21. Illiterate Scholar
    100%. I doubt his seat is anywhere near warm
  22. Illiterate Scholar
    This hurts. Madrigal is a big upgrade over the literal worst defensive third baseman in baseball, but that play certainly won't help his case to remain on the MLB roster for much longer.
  23. Illiterate Scholar
    I can't believe Helsley got 2 saves his last 2 outings. They were on everything
  24. Illiterate Scholar
    104 off the bat from Nico
  25. Illiterate Scholar
    The rare 5 strike, 1 ball walk to Gorman
