  1. It was lefty righty right at the bottom of the order to start the inning.
  2. Braiser’s a right hander who started the inning though.
  3. They share equal blame when you have to hold any team to 2 runs for a W.
  4. Can anyone tell me why Keller wasn’t in? Was he actually burned in Milwaukee throwing a useless extra inning?
  5. Where the horsefeathers was Keller? Couldn’t use him because of a meaningless extra inning on Wednesday?
  6. Couldn’t use Keller because he pitched one extra meaningless inning on Wednesday
  7. 1 out away from 40 consecutive scoreless innings vs the Orioles offense.
  8. Would Keller be in if he didn’t pitch 2 innings vs Milwaukee on Wednesday?
  9. 39 consecutive Inning shutout streak vs the orioles In jeopardy.
  10. Risky for Baltimore to give Shaw anything to hit in that situation with the Cubs top of the order coming up that can’t hit air.
  11. That wouldn’t even be a strike if Yao Ming was batting.
  12. Seiya continues to be hammered by pitchers on the outside corner with really no answer.
  13. Castro has 4 bases in 2 PAs, Brujan had 13 in 47.
  14. Nico is one of the best pre analytics throw back players in baseball.
  15. Zaidman definitely has a voice for writing.
  16. Teams are pounding Seiya on the outside corner.
  17. Bad approach? Does PCA have a bad approach? If situational hitting is a thing, he makes consistent contact and shoots the ball the other way. That’s always been his game and adds a different element to a pull heavy lineup.
  18. Nico has arguably been the third best position player on the team and done so quietly.
  19. One thing that’s stuck out the most is the magnitude of every pitch, inning and run scored. Before the rule changes it’d be 2-0 Cubs in the first inning, I’d think to myself, that’s cool and check back in an hour 1/2 during the 5th inning. Now with the pitch clock all the action is condensed and if I look away for a minute I’ve missed 2 at bats and it’s a 3-2 count.. Before, I’d look away and the only thing I missed was a couple pickoff attempts and a mound visit. It’s definitely added to the intensity and has had a semi football effect for me. My ADHD brain appreciates it.
  20. It’s had a positive effect on viewership and attendance from everything I’ve read. Anecdotally I’ve been watching a lot more games the last few years in large because of the faster pace of games, and to some extent the cubs have been watchable since 2023 as well more so than 21-22.
