  1. So the Cubs will most likely put up a crooked number in the bottom of this inning. Not that I'm going out on a limb or anything.
  2. Orioles up 5-0 over the Cards thru 4. So there's that.
  3. They did, and he wasn't spectacular.
  4. Isn't there a rule about waiting 10 (?) days after sending him down before he can be recalled? Also, Counsell mentioned his age/relative experience and calling an MLB game versus calling games in the Milb.
  5. Sean Newcomb was DFA'd by Boston. Could the Cubs take a flyer on him, at least for a short term patch? This year, he has a 25% K rate and 10% BB rate. As a starter, he never pitched past the 5th, but he was pretty solid as a reliever.
  6. I don't agree with Turner over Busch three games in a row.
  7. For those keeping track, 'zuks lead MLB in RBI with PCA 1 behind.
  8. While I'm fine with Happ leading off, I also don't think it would be a horrible idea to take him out of the leadoff spot (especially with no rehab ABs prior to his return) until he gets his swing back (or for a few games).
  9. Would be nice if the Cubs could flip the script in the 1st inning today - maybe score a couple of runs and have the Reds go down in order.
  10. Raise your hand if Brook Kriske was on your bingo card.
  11. Small sample size, but the Reds lineup absolutely rakes against Rea. Quick math and they are 20 for 61 with 5 players hitting HRs. Take out TJ Friedl's 0 for 11, and the lineup is 20 for 50 against Rea. Hopefully that was the "old Colin Rea", and we get the "New and Improved Colin Rea" today.
  12. Did you especially like all the hand-wringing in pages 2 thru 4?
  13. He made up for that sh!tty read in CF last inning.
  14. Don't look now, but Browny has retired 12 straight with 6 Ks, no BBs. on 58 pitches.
  15. Actually, Brujan may have just gone on his own. And if that’s the case, it’s also a bad decision.
  16. That’s a bad send regardless of the eventual call.
