Not really game related, more broadcast related. Who at Nissan thought it would be a good idea to be the "on air" sponsor of the segment called Breakdown?? -
The Cubs put one ball in play in the first inning. There were no strikeouts. There were no double or triple plays. They get two BBs. And go down in order (basically). That's so Cub.
-
They aren’t in a slump. They’re just bad. What could they get in a trade of Dansby?
-
Billy McKinney sighting earlier today with the Yanks.
-
Hot Take Cubs know they're basically out of it already because they just don't have the talent (let alone depth). So they're gonna ride Wisdom, Mancini, a few of the relievers, maybe even Madrigal hoping they get lucky one gets on a mini heater. More trade value. No trade value sitting on the bench not getting ABs. Cubs go young immediately following the ASB.

Game Thread Sign-ups: March-April 2023
PackLandVA replied to Brock Beauchamp's topic in Fred Hornkohl Game Thread Forum
Much like the Cubs, the “Game Thread Starter” thread died in May. -
Seiya can't hit a high 90s/100s FB, right?
-
Ben Joyce just rears back and throws bullets.
-
Happ crushes one to CF, but about a foot short of clearing the fence. Long out. Bottom of the inning, Troutlifts the ball sky high to RCF. If it’s a couple feet shorter, Tauchman makes the catch. That’s so Cub.

Minor League Discussion & Boxes, 6-7-23
PackLandVA replied to CaliforniaRaisin's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
Cade with 3 Ks in the 1st inning for a south Bend. -
-
Not that I went out on any limb yesterday, but (predictably) spot on.
-
Cliff notes version of why the ejection happened? I missed it. I'm guessing the Cuzzi strike zone.
-
Another lefty on the mound, so same lineup as yesterday? Maybe give Gomes knees a rest and swap positions with Miggy.
-
Just saw former Giants manager Roger Craig passed away at age 93.
-
Umps struggling with their positioning today.. How does that ump jog in front of the runner on that type of play???
-
Hendricks pissed as today’s offensive outburst most likely means two or less runs scored tomorrow
-
Miggy with his first MLB HR, 7-0 Cubs!
-
Followed by a Mancini bomb! Cubs - Trey Padres- zero
-
Yan Gones!!! 2-0 Cubs!
-
Nice start, with a little help.
-
I'm not discounting his "other two starts", but rather pointing out how dominant he was in the four.
-
With Iowa this season, Ben Brown has had 6 starts. In four of the starts he's pitched a total of 20 innings, given up 3 runs, 34 Ks and 9 BBs. He got knocked around in one start, and was fair in the other (poor defense). I wouldn't put too much stock in the number of innings/start. Seems to be a legit prospect.
-
I had a few of those types of round trippers back in the day.

I guess Mervis could be in there, but with a lefty on the mound (2 for 13, 8 Ks), not ideal.
