None of them were close to second to playable for a second baseman.
I figured as much.
But I notice that every ball on the ground since I started watching has gone to the right side.

Rizzo has set an MLB record for times being thrown out on the basepaths. :)

I've seriously never seen any Cub player thrown out this often.

Callin' 'em as I see 'em.

We have lost two games this week we should definitely have won, and another by two in which we gave away at least four runs. We have a long way to go today, and I certainly am not writing this game off by any means. But we have gifted one run, and have had one player out at home.

With Rizzo, it's simply a cumulative thing. I honestly expect him to be out at home when he tries to score. Can anyone, literally, cite an example of a play at the plate where he beat the throw?

Maddon to Contreras: “How is Q’s stuff?”

Contreras’ reply: “I don’t know. None of the pitches have made it to me yet “

?

It’s only three runs.

Reds could be that weird thing in baseball where a inferior team just has your number. It seems all their balls find holes and we cant figure out Tanner Roark.

Cincy isn't a great team but they aren't a bad team either. They are +24 in run diff which is 5th best in the NL. Plus I think they have a good hitter type with some of their players. Guys like Votto are always just tough outs. Senzel is another in that mold.

14 Reds, 5 paying customers, 2 ushers and a beer vendor have hits off Quintana today.

LOL!

After this weekend, Cubs could be like 6 - 7 games out before they even play 10 games
Maddon days as cubs manager coming to an end, I'll be surprise if he makes it into May

Team needs a major shake up and it starts with firing the Manager
If there are ever must win games in April, these are it..
Definitely dont want to fall to 7 1/2 games back , that a huge hole to climb right out of the gate

Brewers are going to be so up for this series, cubs better be ready
Maddon will definitely be gone by May if this keeps up...
Seems like Maddon just wants to be fired..

Offense just gets them within 3 runs and he puts CJ in there who been crap so far and belongs in Iowa

Not responding to this post, just wanted to share how much of a shit post this is and I can only assume that is why the board is dead.
No.. i haven't been on here much the past week or so

The board is dead because of you and the way you moderate it and because of how you and others trash posters on here..

New posters come in, see that crap and move on..

Maybe the ones who annoint Moderators should be made aware of how YOU allowed this forum go to shit and make a change.....


I say Lol to a post and that rattles you..

You got a poster like FatBeard
Going off on posters and you say nothing and actually edge it on or add to it..
That the problem
