Boy, you don't see a lot of balks these days.

Maddon figures a groundball to second will get run home
Got the right guy up here for that
Mr 4-3

Nice job Heyward! Hell of an AB.

 

[SilenceS]

Heyward found a guy he can hit!

 

[beckdawg]

Not gonna lie, sorta bothers me people degrading Heyward by calling him "4-3." I get the frustration and all but A) Heyward is a very high character guy and B) he's an extremely hard worker. It's not like he's some douchebag who's not trying to get better. If anything, he's the type of guy you should root for to turn things around if you believe in karma anyways.

Wow! That wasnt even close

Never been a fan of base stealing...ever.

I agree with you.

Damn.. He got a good jump but it seemed to take forever to see him come on tv screen again at second base..

I also love his attitude but that isn't the point. I work for possibly the nastiest company in the world and you get a very short leash on performance. But performance is all that matters. Want a friend then get a dog. I have been a Cubs fan well over 50 years and I'm tired of this shit. In the end I dont' care who has to get cut or traded or benched or have their $180M contract feelings hurt. So if 4-3 cant fix this then maybe he could be a nice guy and opt the **** out of his contract so we can replace him with a real baseball player

Talk to Heyward about his redundant playing. I just echo what I see. Wear a helmet

You didnt see him. He wasn't starting.

Lying makes you sterile.

If you're pissed off about the $180 mil contract then point your frustration at the front office not Heyward. He didn't make them offer that sort of money.

Get a helmet. Dont blame me that you don't understand the obligations of high performance environments

 

[beckdawg]

Watching Baez pitch is painfully slow :-/

You missed the point by a mile. Employment is a two sided obligation. The Cubs met their obligation 4-3 Heyward has not met his.

A half inning in half an hour with 1 run scored.

Please regale us with further tales of your billion $ negotiations. From your shine box.

Heyward has no obligation to be "worth" $180 mil. His obligation is to go out there and work his hardest. If that's not good enough and the cubs have to bench him then fine. But he's doing his job and he's not shying away from the heat he's taken for not playing like you would expect. There's no reason to shit on a guy when he's down especially one who's doing everything in his power to try and get better.
