Cubs vs Reds (Silent negligent again edition)

[SilenceS]

Tying run on base forRussell-Descalso-Almora. Shocked that we didn’t score.

They flipped the lineup over. Could be big

like the one he hit over the right field wall yesterday for a grand slam?

that one...
great hit
But please don't act like he hasnt whiffed on thousands of low and away balls.
THAT SAID Javy is the god damn man and his positives certainly outweigh his negatives.
He is the most exciting cubs player I think Ive ever seen.

I don't care what the Maddon fan boys say, sitting Baez in a rubber match game is ridiculous. Obviously, if he asked for the day off or there's another issue, that's a different story.

A game is a game. It’s stroke play, not match play. The fact it isa rubber game means zilch.

That's your opinion and you are entitled to it.

Maples has had short work here(7 innings) but i am impressed. That high 97 heat was nasty. Here is hoping he has it down the road.

Have you watchedin 2018 and2019, or still going off 2015 Javy?

 

[jooo83]

Why did he not throw to 2nd?

Ive seen him lay off tons of those pitches too. I am not knocking Javy. He happened to strike out on the infamous low and away and i think he will forever chase it.
is he much better than early years? Absolutely. Again, Javy is the man.

 

[SilenceS]

One of those days. This **** has hit it off the end of the bat twice and thats the difference

 

[jooo83]

The Reds are a bunch of crybabies.

 

[MDB111™]

I think 9 LOB here is the story. Although 2 of those were from that bullshit junior Reds Bartman interference call. So 7 LOB

 

[MDB111™]

The Reds are a bunch of crybabies.

IMO the announcers for the Reds got it right. He got hit 3 times this series. He was just pissed he got hit again. nothing against Maples

 

[SilenceS]

And our bullpen kills our chances. The all star break is going to be good for us

 

[TL1961]

Do we stop anyone from stealing bases anymore?

remember when that was a strength?

 

[SilenceS]

4 runs with 2 outs. LOL

I believe we can all agree here that the cubs will have another shit road trip with a losing record and will lose the pirates series too. Gonna have darvish, chatwood and alzolay going and even though alzolay has been really good he won’t go but 4 or 5 innings max so that will mean the craptastic Montgomery will come in and the offense will struggle in atleast 2 in Pittsburgh

@choad35 beating those drums again

@choad35 beating those drums again

Am I wrong? Just lost another road series and the pirates are just a bit better than the reds and chatwood, darvish and a
Rookie all be it good, will only pitch 5 innings. Split is best we do at Pitt but im
Saying they lose the series. Do you really think they are playing well enough to win 3 of 4 on the road where they haven’t won a series in over a month

At first, I thought you were trolling. But, after the all star thread. I realized you are just dumb as shit. No offense, the world needs ditch diggers.
