IST: Cubs vs Blue Jays

[beckdawg]

Man I respect the hell out of Almora. He always seems to make the most of his opportunities. Turns his pinch hit into a bit insurance run.

Makes you wonder what their plan is for him next year...

Noticed the Dodgers sent Pederson to AAA after trading for Granderson...
They giving up on him already

Nice win, good outing from Q and absolutely insane plays from Javy. I'll take it.

Like I said #2. Schwarber had a hot start but tailed off. Happ has been a util guy with production on par.

.272/.310/.509. Ya he is a highlight reel. But "substance" is the every day thing. Not the highlight show.

He is making the big plays right now but he also will go 0-5 with 5 SO's in the same week.

He is what he is. A 6th man. Come in and adds energy. But for the every day thing you look at UZR and OBA.

another big offensive day for Caratini and down he goes. lol

Lucky for the Blue Jays Schwarber and Zobrist follow him.

Nice to see Schwarber finally come out of his slump.

I'm kinda surprised the cubs haven't tried to run on Montero at all today.

They havent had the baserunners and the ones that get on cant run....

I understand these guys get rest days but i hate when Maddon rest 2 or 3 of them on same day and they end up with a shaky lineup...

Well Rizzo was on with 1 out i think. Rizzo isn't billy hamilton but he isn't a terrible base runner. I guess I just think Montero's arm is so bad you can run with anyone.

Horrible decision to bunt there. And equally awful execution of the bunt.
