Im willing to give Counsell a lot of slack given injuries have left him with zero major league starters, but putting Maton into a competitive game over literally any other option is just not acceptable or defensible.
-
“Lets make major investments in our infield defence and then build a pitching staff entirely of dudes who give up nothing but absolute nukes like its their job”
-
There must’ve been a guy in the crowd they could have put in. Same result at worst.
-
Valid take. Fully healthy starters is probably a comfortable wildcard like last season, which also had streaky hitting, but running a rotation like this is unsurvivable. Nobody as bad as Shota or Taillon this season will ever be in a playoff rotation.
-
At this point bringing Maton into winnable games should be a fireable offence for Counsell. Unless the team is up 5+ runs, its pure malpractice to let him on the diamond. Incomprehensibly awful.
-
Solid night for the offence, ruined by the two Cubs I despise.
-
Bitchass Maton had to horsefeathers it up or we could be realistically hoping for a tie. What a horrible human.
-
Phil Maton is a generational fuckup but at least he’s stoic. horsefeathers that guy.
-
Baseball terrorist Shota Imanaga. Just obscenely bad.
-
I rest my case.
-
I really, really, really hate fly ball pitchers. Not only have the results with Shota been uneven at best, its just an aesthetically offensive brand of pitching. 🤷🏻♂️
-
Its not Carson Kelly’s catching that is to blame for the Cubs willingly entering a major league season with the atrocities of Taillon and Imanaga on their roster.
-
What a deeply unserious sport lmao
-
Taillon getting starts is my biggest argument about adding 2 expansion teams. Absolute crime that he is in the major leagues.
-
Thats cool and all but from the perspective of every other team in baseball, we are the “easy win”. Hard to get super excited about a “soft” stretch that way.
-
Man if they can just hang around .500 until Steele, Boyd and Cabrera come back…
-
Chris Davis was unlucky too.
-
Watching games that don’t involve the Cubs and it looks like a completely different sport.
-
Gotta be brutal in the clubhouse. Living with a level of professional failure 99% of people can’t even fathom must be awful.
-
What could they possibly do? Unless they can pull 4 MLB replacement level or better starters out of thin air tomorrow, theres nothing that can fix this.
-
So the next two are guaranteed Ls. Hard to see an end coming, 100 losses might actually happen.
-
No way am i not watching, fully in the horrified fascination phase. Cabrera being bad/getting injured removes any semblance of a stopper. We could be facing a historic stretch of futility.
-
I was pretty bummed out about missing 6 weeks of games in June and July for work. Heavy emphasis on was.
-
Damn i read Shota wtf. I got eyesight as bad as our batters i guess
-
Unfortunately somebody has to pitch, obviously 29 other teams wouldn’t even have a pitcher like him rostered.
