I hope people see the work Contreras needs. He receives the ball awful and that throw to third was not necessary and terrible

I don't disagree but makes you wonder what he been doing since the start of last year and if anyone been working with him all that time..

It takes time. Catching is the hardest position to master

Contreras with the hustle. Glad Rizzo got in. Pirates already going to the bullpen. Clint hurdle playing this like a playoff game

Again I don't disagree but he been catching in the Cubs organization since 2012,..

I'm not saying he should be GG back there but he should be able to do the basics by now..

Not that he terrible either, just Ive seen HS kids frame and receive pitches better..
And he been learning from a professional organization for the last 5 years

That's why I believe they promoted him early. To learn from two of the best, it's up to him to learn

Great hustle by the kids

LaStella bats looks slow. Weird because he has a quick bat

He is pretty good against pitchers like him. He doesn't look good right now doe. May be a rep thing.

At least it wasn't belt high, but it was the same spot he hit one yesterday

Offense is really going to need to slug tonight to not lose this one or hopefully get a great outing by the pen

This team just isn't fun to watch right now.

 

[zack54attack]

alright. So It's going to be one of these games

What make it suck is just about every game it 1 of 3 reasons why the lose, instead of just flat out losing..

1. You're saying if only the bats could of gotten a hit or 2 with RISP

2. Starters getting rocked early or giving up that 1 big inning of runs

3. Bullpen blowing a lead late
