    GREAT CALL!! Tied up 5-5. Actually, it's not that great because it's not that surprising. But good call.
  2. PackLandVA
    So the Cubs don't waste the good pitching and actually get a rare road win. If the Cubs win, the "streak" of road series lost will end. And it means the "two in a row", which is the start of a streak of their own. Watching the Cubs offense, especially on the road has been brutal. And the late inning bullpen issues: The Pirates are not really that good, even against the road cobs. So I'm predicting a win and a trip back to Wrigley. They will right this ship moving forward and run away with the division. It will be just like 2016 (not really). Win you dumb bastard$!!!

    Always thought this was just a matter of time.

    Tuned in with the walk to the pitcher. Thought I stick out a couple of batters to see how far behind the Cubs would be at end of inning. Pleasantly surprise. Way to get out of it Jon!! Now a couple of hits/runs would be nice.

    Strop gave up a couple grounders that literally every guy who can play 2B on this team except Happ probably gets to. Hard time blaming him too much. Bote's error swung the game. Don’t forget another HBP.
  8. PackLandVA
    Strop has been a dumpster fire this season. If he does his job, Harper never bats. And Holland does need to come into the game.

    That sentence is not specifically about Almora, but about the dead weight in general. The bench has been trash all season. Joe doesn’t have a 25 man roster. He can’t keep trotting our the same 8 position players everyday. Because, less face it, a couple of those guys aren’t everyday players. "I'd play Almora everyday until he gets better" Umm, conveniently left out a word.

    What? At some point you almost have to use them? That's not been the issue with Almora. He's been used early and often. That sentence is not specifically about Almora, but about the dead weight in general. The bench has been trash all season. Joe doesn’t have a 25 man roster.

    I don’t blame Joe at all. In fact, I applaud him. There’s been a fair amount of dead weight on the bench and in the bullpen all season. At some point, you almost have to use them. I’d play Almora everyday until he gets better (doubtful) or until his stats become even more comical than they already are. Joe doesn’t build the bench. Joe doesn’t build the bullpen. Joe doesn’t build the roster.

    Now if the would just stop the inane “cross town classic”, except every three year cycle, that would be great.
  13. PackLandVA
    Explain the whole Baez thing again, please.
  14. PackLandVA
    At least hey didn’t get swept.
  15. PackLandVA
    I love these "my dick is bigger than yours" arguments.
  16. PackLandVA
    Heard Happ was unaccounted for last night after the game for a few hours.
  17. PackLandVA
    At least Javy seems to have a more controlled swing batting left handed.
  18. PackLandVA
    Hahahhaaha!!!
  19. PackLandVA
    Oh, I’m sure the Bucs will put it together for a series or two.
  20. PackLandVA
    Bassitt - I don't think so!
  21. PackLandVA
    And the Cubs pick up 2 1/2 games since Thursday!
  22. PackLandVA
    Heard his drawers look like a Jackson Pollock piece.
  23. PackLandVA
    Spot in rotation next year?
  24. PackLandVA
    Javy has a ways to go to get into Ryno territory.
  25. PackLandVA
    My guess is Joe has Bert in because he's had a couple of hits off Gio in 5 ABs. He's also taken a couple of walks.
