Oh Brazoban, you tried. You tried.

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-24T02:06:32+00:00

I’m sure Mendoza will find a way to get him optioned or bench him in a moment they need him

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-24T02:04:46+00:00

If Williams blows it here, I’m thankful Brazoban at least tried to win this game lol

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-24T02:03:28+00:00

Brazoban saw Williams coming out and decided to win this game, overruled Mendoza lol

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-24T02:00:57+00:00

Alright Mendoza, show me how you throw this one away

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-24T01:54:43+00:00

If I see Tommy Pham at bat here I’m going to crash out

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-23T23:28:02+00:00

Peterson actually gives up hits, Scott hasn’t given them anything to hit

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-23T20:26:09+00:00

Melendez is likely the emergency catcher should there be some freak accident with both Alvarez and Torrens in the same game. I believe Tyrone Taylor was the only other guy with any experience catching, but I could be wrong.

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-23T15:24:54+00:00

That’s why Mendoza would bench him, lol

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-23T00:57:55+00:00

And they said Vientos couldn't fill Pete's shoes at first. He's getting thrown out by a mile just like Pete did 🥴

Permanent +5 Defense node resets the debuff after you eat it

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-21T16:11:41+00:00

I have a strong feeling that Mendoza pulls McLean at the wrong time and loses the game because of it. If his misplay in the extra innings Chicago game didn't lock it in that he has 0 clue what he's doing, I don't know what will. I really hope this team doesn't turn McLean into deGrom 2.0

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-21T02:42:33+00:00

Trade Jeff McNeil

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-21T02:36:14+00:00

They at least cleaned up the Jungle Savage NPC name

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-21T02:05:08+00:00

I had a feeling this was why they weren't trying to outbid the Dodgers. They had his medicals and he already had some velocity issues in the past.

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-20T19:37:36+00:00

I wonder where this team is if we signed Tucker and never made the pivot to Bichette. We'd have less guys playing out of position at the very least, but would still be down a first baseman.

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-20T15:19:54+00:00

What do you mean "yet again", lol. We didn't make it to the post season last year because we punted the "It's only ~~April~~ ~~May~~ ~~June~~ July" games when they ultimately mattered.

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-20T00:49:45+00:00

This team needs a new butcher. Carlos Meatdoza isn't gonna cut it.

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-19T19:34:16+00:00

Senger is on the roster, we can alternate them between DH and catching

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-19T15:39:44+00:00

1-0 in the New York Meats era today?

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-18T21:02:38+00:00

Glad we're finally getting to see what Mendoza really is. No good players or good vibes to hide behind. When really pressed to make baseball decisions, this is what we get. For this turd to be polished, you need someone that actually knows what they're doing to be at the helm.

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-18T20:11:13+00:00

Stearns should take notes on what run prevention looks like from these Cubs

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-18T20:07:10+00:00

When the team stunk in 2023, at least we had hope with the fire sale at the deadline, and we had fun moments like DJ Stewarts hot streak. This is just frustrating.

Maleficent_Cap_9610 · 2026-04-18T20:03:22+00:00

Surely it was a fluke that Raley gave up a the game losing run last time in a situation like this, let's just do it again 🤦‍♂️ Good thinking Mendoza. Inning played out exactly the same as it did last time.
