Wild Card IST: Marlins AT Cubs

[zack54attack]

Literally the only legit power lefty threat and you leave him in after 2 guys rip singles off him. Cmon.

 

[RacerX]

Welp. This is so Cubs.

 

[JimJohnson]

That's why you can't go to the pen

 

[jooo83]

I didn't expect the cubs to get out of the 1st round. People forget or ignore that this team was under 500 after starting 13-3. They are simply not very good.

 

[wonky73]

well it was fun boys.. Time for a rebuild overreaction ?

 

[zack54attack]

Lol

 

[knoxville7]

The pen is trash...I can get why he left Kyle in. It didn’t work out obviously, but I get it

Overreaction? How many early playoff exits and failed September runs do we need to see before a rebuild is in order?

They tried firing the manager.. that didn't seem to help the offense.. I think it might be the overrated "Core"

Said it all year....Ross is a moron

Well he started the inning at over 90 pitches and they hit him the previous 2-3 innings thankfully without scoring.

As soon as they got their first hit in the 7th id have gone immediately to the pen (should have had kimbrell and Ryan ready to go to start the inning)

So Cubs up 1-0 and you want to use your closer in the 7th? Joe Maddon is that you?

 

[CSF77]

Not having Wick impacted the 7th going in.

 

[jts1207]

Yeah Ross....let's use that pen now and save a run. Wouldn't want to be down 6-1 in the 8th. Fn clownshow

 

[SilentLurker]

Ross managed this like a regular season game.

Why?

Hes still got plenty of guys who have performed well lately to easily mix and match the last 9 outs of a game

 

[CSF77]

I see the season as over. This line up just flat shuts down far too often to go forward with. I am still 100% behind Hamilton in CF and Happ in LF.

Ross managed this game like he's in over his head.....which he is

You mean Chili Davis is finally off the hook?
