Literally turned the game on just in time to see Javy smash a hanging slider to the moon. Good poo poo.

Intruder posted:I didn't used to believe in managers being important until Dusty Baker was my team's manager It's weird because by all accounts he's a really good clubhouse manager that guys like, but he is just dogshit at both in-game management and handling individual player workload/health. You'd think he'd get more flack from his guys over it.

I see Ottavino is doing the thing cross-fire delivery guys like to do and just randomly start eating poo poo.

Hamilton is actually a good pickup for us because he basically hits about as well as Almora but with way better CF defense and actual speed on the bases. I don't expect to see much of him beyond late game defensive replacement and pinch running though.

Javy used to legit steal bags but he actually has to get on base to do that, which is not his greatest strength this year.

Contreras doing his best Blues Brothers impression and batting with sunglasses on while it's pitch loving black and stormy out.Poque posted:I'm guessing we've seen the last of Almora as a Cub at this point. There's no reason to even tender him the arb contract I think so too. It sucks because by all accounts he's a great guy and an incredibly hard worker, but his bat has just been completely untenable since basically the 2018 ASB and he's so goddamn slow that even with his fantastic instincts and routes in CF his defense is limited by poor range. Hopefully he can figure it out at some point and carve out a good career somewhere.

Boyd is a guy the Pitcher List dudes absolutely love and seem to keep pointing to as a breakout ace in the making, but I just don't see it. He's Sale if Sale had like 10MPH less velo and way worse control.

What the gently caress is Ross' obsession with Adam? Like he's not terrible but there are far better arms even in this pen and for some reason Ross just keeps running him out night after night.

It'd be nice if Contreras was finally heating up, considering it looks like Happ is coming back to earth and Bryant/Rizzo/Javy all look not great.

I expected to win the Darvish start and lose the Mills start, so those being flipped + another win for 2-3 ain't bad. Gained some ground on the Cardinals as well.

ThePeavstenator posted:Cubs posters, why was Wick left in to start the inning? Did Jeffress really need the extra 2 batters to get ready? Ross seems to kinda get into his own head a bit regarding pen what if's. He was too obsessed with running out of guys or burning Jeffress early that he decided to roll the dice on leaving Wick in, which is not only stupid on it's own but doubly stupid because Wick just pitched last night and asking him to go multiple innings here was incredibly dumb.

Endless Trash posted:I have to wonder if the cubs scoring jack poo poo helped them lose that game I mean, there are other guys in the pen? Sure they suck but asking Wick to give you two after he just pitched last night was dumb as hell, not just from a trying to win the game standpoint but from a "could potentially injure one of the few guys in the pen who doesn't suck absolute poo poo" one as well.

 Suter just tripped mid delivery and fell rear end over teakettle. And then goes right back to sitting the Cubs down 1-2-3 because this offense is trash.
