Cubs need to start taking big advantage of the amount of guys Cain is putting on consistently.

I'm honestly surprised we haven't seen any hit and runs yet with all the guys we've had on base

That out was directly related to bad ball & strike calls...forced to swing at a ball because the moron is calling strikes on outside pitches.

Nice Montero. Let's get a big inning here.

Would've rather seen a bunt with Addison on deck.

I would've rather seen Russell batting 8th. Two big innings killed by the pitcher hitting 8th...I've been saying this for weeks. Time to put it to rest.

Doubt it will make much of a difference, the pitcher still has to hit. They'd be more likely to pitch around Russell with the pitcher behind him.

This. Russell would have a lot less pitches to hit in the 8 spot
