Scherzer freebasing again...

Dusty going to Albers early and no Madson tonight could work in cubs favor..

Just need to keep Nats at 4 runs and give bats a shot after Albers leaves

Hopefully Hendricks has steadied things out.

Albers is like 600 pounds

Cubs won't end this night with only 3 runs. If Kyle and the bullpen can shut them down Cubs will still win.

 

[DanTown]

Great time to go Schwarber there but joes managaing like it’s mid July

 

[TL1961]

Agree.

Cubs are not done scoring.

1 run game and early...
I have faith in kyle to holdem another 2 innings or so ..

Save Schwarber Happs LsStella Zobrist for inning 7-9 against the other relievers.. don't waste them now

Not a high leverage situation and need more from starter. Right move.

Weak inning vs fat albers

Baez finally takes some pitches works the count and still hit a jam shot weak grounder to ss

Surprised Hendricks hit with top of order coming up for wash and us losing.

 

[greg23]

Here comes scherzer for 1-4 innings

 

[TL1961]

Dusty is just dying to use a starter in relief because he has seen real major league managers do that on TV.

 

[oober]

Maybe Hendricks found his groove???????

Keep the Cubs in it....

 

[TL1961]

Pick him off.

 

[oober]

JUst walk Harper

 

[NCChiFan]

Still hitting Hendricks hard I see.

 

[oober]

Hopefuly Scherzer doesn't have it tonight... Throw a bunt or 2 down... Make him field..

 

[DanTown]

Good thing you let Kyle bat and basically punted that inning with Albers on the mound. Now you get a power pitcher who dominated you.

 

[chibears55]

Maddon playing this game with confidence in Hendricks and his hitters..

He knows Madson was used last night so after Albers they got crap in their pen..
Scherzer with just 2 days rest won't have much in tank so bats should get a good look ..
Scherzer will go 2 at most

I think Maddon will win the bullpen chest game tonight with Gio getting pulled early and the sticks he has on bench..

Hope the bats come through


We shall see
