yeah, they probably should be able to, considering they get pulled around 75 pitches.

 

[zack54attack]

And Yu gives up a 2-out HR.

 

[Bigfoot]

Cervali line drove that out

And Yu gives up a 2-out HR.

That Cervelli ****** loves the Cubs. He is Babe Ruth to us.

 

[SilenceS]

Yu stuff looks crisp. We will see how he keeps his location.

 

[chibears55]

Going back to Sept 1st last season
Kris Bryant
32 for 140 .228 3 HR 14 RBI

He a long way away from an MVP caliber player..

They really need him to figure it out and get going

 

[zack54attack]

And another 2-run HR given up by Yu Darvish.

 

[chibears55]

Feel bad for the fans at this game..
Freezing their asses off watching crap

Cubs should hope Darvish will want to quit and retire after this season, I dont see the light at the end of the tunnel with him

 

[chibears55]

Great ABs by Descalso and Bryant with runners in scoring position
???

32/141 now, after failing with 2 on and 2 out there

 

[SilenceS]

Has Heyward found his swing?

Has Heyward found his swing?

It isn’t really different mechanically. What he is doing is loading slower and earlier. It’s what I’ve wanted to see out of him since he became a Cub. Not the only thing, but this is really important, IMHO. I would guess he feels great about how the barrel feels going through the zone.

 

[chibears55]

Has Heyward found his swing?

DeJesus compared it to previous years the other day, he said his hands were back more and he not upper cutting at balls anymore

 

[chibears55]

This could be a really rough homestand, if they lose these last 2 to the Pirates then face the Angels over the weekend...

Clever how you went all the way back to last year to include four weeks when he was injured just to make him look extra bad!

 

[zack54attack]

At least Heyward can hit now.

 

[zack54attack]

And Rizzo swinging at a pitch at his eyes.

 

[roadwarrior_joe]

Darvish needs to be cut, send headcase Bryant to Iowa where he belongs, bring up two guys from AAA to replace both of them and the roster instantly improves.

 

[Bigfoot]

Rizzo and Baez worked the count, but swung need to lay off those high ones.
