Hmmm....Ian Happ starts in CF, and we have a defensive miscue that will lead to a run.

There’s something new and different.

Similar to Almora being spooked by the warning track the other day that let a run in

Love Kyle, but that wasn't the time to try to swipe a bag

Doubtful Schwarber has a green light....more likely a missed sign by him or Happ.

Baseball slumps are hilarious. Cubs get runners all over the place and can't do a thing....every little opening the Dodgers get, they score. You can't script this shit.

Let's see....overused pen, best pitcher on mound. Had an extra day of rest after his long outing.

Let's remove him after five innings and 82 pitches.

I applaud this. You complain about a managerial move while the play is "live". Most of the other goofs here wait till afterwards when the results are in.

I was going to type "Javy's having a nice game." when it was 1-1 and he was 3 for 3.

Javy is having himself a REAL nice game. (And that triple can wait for his next at bat.)

And it has nothing to do with LaStella, who has been terrific as a PH.

You're right - his K is not the reason I didn't like it. I didn't want the pen forced to throw another inning. But I will say, being overprotective of Lester after a 119 pitch outing is not terrible at all.

Glad he is in line for a win. (He says, crossing his fingers.)

And the obligatory walk by a reliever with a five run lead. Grounds for execution! :)

You're welcome to your opinion like everyone else....but the clowns that wait till it doesn't work and bitch are lame. You put it out there before LaStella even hit, that's the way to do it.
