The Professor: Round 2

Listening on the radio. Pat and Ron were having a pretty good laugh over Castellanos' slide. I'll have to go back and watch it later.

You're the smart one.  They're going to have Dempster in for the middle innings for at least the 3rd time already.

What happened?  Hendricks is out already?




Cubs @ Reds 7/29 - biggz - 07-29-2020

Yikes.




Cubs @ Reds 7/29 - Kid - 07-29-2020

Turning off the Cubs in the 5th means baseball is really back!




Cubs @ Reds 7/29 - jeffy - 07-29-2020

Just like old times.

Fake comeback. Still probably turning this off now. Maybe.

Nice to see Cubs put up a 5 spot but appears Dillon is planning to give those runs right back


Cubs @ Reds 7/29 - jeffy - 07-29-2020

I keep turning it back on. Why do I love to punish myself?


Cubs @ Reds 7/29 - BigBoy - 07-29-2020

Holy shit our pen is worse than i could imagine. This is gonna be tough to watch. I know some of these guys will be sent down, but i really don't trust any single player in the pen.

 

I know it's less than 10 games in, but sheesh.  It appears Kimbrel was training with Maples this offseason.




Cubs @ Reds 7/29 - 1060Ivy - 07-29-2020

Why do I believe that the next round through the Cubs starting rotation will provide the opposite results of what occurred through the first 5 games? (Hendricks, Chatwood, Lester, and Mills underperform while Darvish produces to his initial expectations)



No worries - the bullpen will be consistent. It will continue to suck.

The Bote!

It's the first Cubs triple play in decades.  Unfortunately, Bryant caught it on the hop after Maples had walked the bases loaded.   

 

Was more excited that Cubs' bat returned to life after Sonny left the game.
