IGT vs Phillies

I believe Eric Sogard now has a lower ERA than Jake “Bum” Arrieta

No matter how bad arrieta is and how good Alzolay is, only alzolay can be a bum because he wasn't good 5 years ago on our world series team

Bad

 

[zack54attack]

This is embarrassing. Rock bottom.

 

[Hawkeye OG]

15 runs? I mean what in the actual fuck

 

[jts1207]

15 runs on 13 hits with only 3 walks is even more impressive

 

[knoxville7]

At least Javy is mashing the ball to increase his trade value some

 

[Skittles2100]

Jake. I told the people calling you a bum to fuck off, then you give up a grannysmith to McCutchen. -_- He isnt the Jake he used to be. Why is he mainly throwing only 2 pitches?

15 runs? I mean what in the actual fuck

The proof is in the pudding. Jake, Gerritt Cole, Aroldis Chapman and the like all were using the recently banned spider tack. Look at their stats once the ban wave came, lol

Baseball’s sticky stuff controversy could be the best thing to happen to Spider Tack

James Deffinbaugh didn't intend to create an essential product for MLB pitchers, but the professional strongman is now seeing possibility in his sticky side business.

If Alzolay can win a Cy Young and lead the Cubs to a World Series win, then he wouldnt be a bum either. Arrieta was junk until he was a late bloomer here. Who knows Alzolay can do into his late 20s and early 30s

 

[Chief Walking Stick]

This team is beyond pathetic.

I'm guessing Trevor Williams goes back on the DL soon. Unless trades start happening and we need him to keep getting abused the rest of the year

I doubt it.

I can see Davies traded and Willams and Arretta working hard at getting Jed a better pick next year.

 

[CSF77]

My opinion is known.

DFA Arretta.
Now give Williams a few starts to prove that he belongs.

Trade Davies.
Promote Abbott.

Roll that til the end of the year.

Next spring stretch out Steel and Thompson.

Hendricks, Alzolay, Steel, Abbott, Thompson

Marquez at AAA getting MLB ready.

Bryant hamstring tightness. Oof.

Bryant hamstring tightness. Oof.

I was wondering about that.

Bryant hamstring tightness. Oof.

longer they keep him around, the more likely an injury keeps the cubs from getting the return they should for him

 

[Snicker_Dickens]

Cubs could win this game. There are mostly righties, all but Harper and Gregory's, in the lineup today. The Phillies have lefties Odubel Cabrera, Travis Jankowski, Brad Miller, and switch hitting Andrew Knapp. If the Phillies come out with a lefty lineup tomorrow, we could be in for a long day. If we do not, then the Cubbies have a shot. It's safe to say Bryce will go deep tomorrow vs Alzolay. Hopefully it is a solo shot. I'd love to see this team rebound and win 10 to 15 in a row

I would sit him til the ASG. Wisdom has been just as good.

11-13 MLB draft. 13th will be the ASG July 16 starts the 2nd half. That gives 2 full weeks til the deadline.
