Nice catch by Javy, but he really should have let Almora get it.

We've got the Rangers coming up though.

My understanding has always been that the CF is in charge of the OF and if they're calling for a ball, you back off even if you think you've got a better shot.

That's how I've always been taught, too. The thing is, I can't recall a season where there have been this many OF collisions and near-misses, and we're only halfway through. Something is wrong and it needs to be fixed ASAP before someone gets Schwarbered again.

The Reds bullpen is so bad that Kyle Hendricks just blooped in a single.

His look on 1B was pretty great.

Are they still on pace to be historically terrible?

I've only been half paying attention the past few innings and am also slightly inebriated.... what happened to Bryant that we're afraid he may have a concussion?

Ugh, shut up Jeff Garlin. Pat and Ron have him in the booth right now, and every time a comedian is in there they do like half their set and it's just not funny.

# ¿ Jul 4, 2016 21:26

OK I'll give $50 to any Goon who goes and physically drag Jeff Garlin out of the booth. This is painful.

I usually like Jeff Garlin, but now seeing him on TV he's going a little overboard. He has to be drunk or something.

My money is on "something"

Wood, our best bullpen pitcher by a mile this season who's well known for not giving up a lot of dongs, gives up 3 ER on back to back dongs.

That pretty much sums up the Cubs bullpen this season, yeah.

Why we don't already have Abad, Doolittle, etc is beyond me

I think even Len and JD were annoyed by that.

Pat Hughes is the ultimate professional and even they're still making anti-Garlin snarky comments after he's gone.

Strop is cool.

Also - and I feel weird saying this - but the strike zone has been remarkably good today. I can't think of a call to either team that I felt was terrible egregious.

It's sad that this is such a rarity. Bring on the robo-umps!
