That sucks.

Contreras in the 5-spot? Shit, why not. He’s got a 5.000 career OPS.
EnricoPallazzoQuote Reply
EnricoPallazzo,
His wRC+ is over 1200.
dmick89Quote Reply
dmick89,
That’s obviously sustainable. I hope Cubs fan expectations reflect this.

Rice in limbo,
I’m going to be really disappointed if he can’t sustain it. Why not just trade the guy if that’s the case?
dmick89Quote Reply
So with Edwards replacing Fowler, are the Cubs now carrying nine relievers and three catchers?
PerkinsQuote Reply
Perkins,
I think it’s 8 relievers again.

Russell. Wow

Safe, but great play.

This game sucks.

Throw a strike, you greasy shit.

Do the Cardinals control the wind now?
Rizzo the RatQuote Reply
This game sucks a little less now.
dmick89Quote Reply
If Contreras drives in 2 runs in every 3 plate appearances he’ll probably be a good little player for the Cubs.
dmick89Quote Reply
Russell’s struggles vs lefties makes no sense to me.
dmick89Quote Reply
7.5. No way am I counting clayton “kershaw” Richard as a full player.
EnricoPallazzoQuote Reply
The Cubs have not made Garcia work at all.
dmick89Quote Reply
Matheney is a piece of shit.
dmick89Quote Reply
dmick89,
That would mean his R+RBI would equal his PAs. That would be okay.
ceruleanQuote Reply
cerulean,
It would be ok. Not great.
dmick89Quote Reply
Baez drew a walk.
Rizzo the RatQuote Reply
I didn’t know he was that good with a pencil.
ceruleanQuote Reply
White Sox walked the bases loaded with nobody out in the bottom of the ninth. K, out at the plate, K, the Red Sox—best offense in baseball—failed to score.

Was there some beanball bs earlier? Just turned on the game last inning and saw that there were warnings issued.
berseliusQuote Reply
If I’m reading the comments correctly, garcia threw at someone for a perceived slight? What was the issue?
EnricoPallazzoQuote Reply
berselius,
Lackey hit Moss in the arm in what was probably either intentional or just intentionally inside to get him off the plate. Moss had hit a homer and a deep drive to CF. Matheney retaliated by throwing up and in to Bryant.

dmick89,
Ugh
berseliusQuote Reply
Great throw by Willson
berseliusQuote Reply
That’s why Contreras will be the primary starter by the end of the season.
dmick89Quote Reply
Richard coming in?!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
ceruleanQuote Reply
cerulean,
It’s like Joe holding up an L flag.
dmick89Quote Reply
Best case scenario—Richard walks this guy, and he gets replaced.
ceruleanQuote Reply
Great play all around there.
dmick89Quote Reply
Nice
berseliusQuote Reply
Good job by Richard inducing that double leading to the play at the plate.
Rizzo the RatQuote Reply
Best case scenario—double off the wall and cut down at home. (dying laughing)
ceruleanQuote Reply
Maddon is a genius. (dying laughing)
ceruleanQuote Reply
Quick replays tonight. I like that.
dmick89Quote Reply
cerulean,
(dying laughing)
dmick89Quote Reply
Hopefully the Cardinals can induce a couple home runs here.
dmick89Quote Reply
Almora!
Rizzo the RatQuote Reply
Almoravid!
Edit – WTF was that, autocorrect? (Dying laughing)
berseliusQuote Reply
Come on, Zobrist.
Rizzo the RatQuote Reply
(dying laughing)?
ceruleanQuote Reply
Damn it, Almora.
Rizzo the RatQuote Reply
Fack
berseliusQuote Reply
Fuck
dmick89Quote Reply
Don’t run on Molina. Don’t run on Molina. Don’t run on Molina.
Rizzo the RatQuote Reply
Come on, Heyward.
Rizzo the RatQuote Reply
I think the ball hit the ump, I could have sworn that was going to the backstop. Can understand why Almora ran, though he still jumped too early.
berseliusQuote Reply
Not a terrible play by Almora, but he’s already in scoring position.
dmick89Quote Reply
berselius,
It did hit the ump. It was an easy mistake to make for sure.
dmick89Quote Reply
That sucks
dmick89Quote Reply
Dammit.
ceruleanQuote Reply
dmick89,
Pretty amazing that he nearly beat it anyway with Yadi throwing.
berseliusQuote Reply
berselius,
The Baez swim slide beats it.
ceruleanQuote Reply
I guess he was a victim of bad luck. Still a very high-risk play.
Rizzo the RatQuote Reply
So, why the hell did Coghlan stay at first? Oh well.
Rizzo the RatQuote Reply
WE before Almora tries to advance: 36%
WE after Almore is thrown out: 9%
WE if Almora were safe: 45%
I think you have to be about 75% sure to run there. Of course, if Coghlan runs, it changes the math a bit.
