1) We going to the ship 2) Bellinger is good 3) Corey getting an XBH is huge with his elbow situation 4) Yu finally did something. Cool. 5) The Cubs paid 180 million for Jason Heyward. We have Puig basically on the house. 6) Don't let Adrian play ever again. 7) If Logan can be what he was last year, at least against LHP, for the remaining month...I'm down. The defense is there. Unfortunately we won't face that many lefties. Gotta get Barnes some work just in case. 8) Grandal can go on the 60 day DL for all I care. Barnes is a comparable defender and a far superior hitter.
Orel is a fucking idiot. "Fans be asking why Forsythe is hitting fifth, blah blah blah." No fuckwit. Fans be asking why he's hitting fifth against righties. Nobodies got a beef with him facing lefties, not even me, and I hate the fucking ass clown. God he's infuriating. So. That's our squad against a lefty. I like it. It's going to be a dogfight to see who plays LF and catcher against righties. I personally would have Barnes and Chase fighting over second base too, if Grandal MUST play. If Dave continues to plug Logan into second against righties he's fucked beyond repair.
I say we're going to the ship in jest, though. Still need to see more from Yu. And Wood. I trust Hill for the most part. Since I'm obsessed with Kershaw's ERA and legacy, I freak out whenever he gives up a hit, but he will most likely be good.
Hunter Pence with 2 9th inning hits in the past 2 days that travelled a total of 8 feet. #thegiantway
very pleased with yu's performance some may say, "so what, it was against the giants" doesn't matter his command was very good and his pitches had late movement his fastball seemed to have some of that explosiveness it lacked the past few outings and no walks
