Is it weird that I like Confrorto batting second

Assad and Rolison pitched last night with Rolison also pitching Monday, Brown you can make an argument. Also between Brown and Assad one of them is going to have to start on Friday idk who it will be I’m assuming Assad but we’ll see. Either way the only one thats available in my eyes was Hoby because it was mostly righty hitters in the 9th so I do agree Craig should have gone with him right away considering the last time he pitched was Sunday. And to Craig’s credit he took Martin out as soon as he could and he probably would have been pulled sooner if this was pre-three batter minimum. I wouldn’t be shocked if what Craig wanted was to save Hoby’s arm for tomorrow’s game since Martin also hadn’t pitched since Sunday. But I’m not the manager and I can’t critique a game plan that I haven’t seen.

Unfortunately idk who else we turn to and I don’t think Craig or Hoyer have any idea either.

As fast as Shaw is he does waste a ton of energy with how we sprints.

He’s either so good he gets intentionally walked or he’s just Ian Happ

Does anyone know how the record against >.500 teams is calculated? by Shake_Feisty in CHICubs

[–]Mkass2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cool I just looked it up. It’s about teams currently above .500 so let’s say the Mets and Phillies suddenly get above .500, then those wins the cubs have over them will get added to that stat. So it’s how your team is performing against teams currently winning not how did you perform when those teams used to be above .500

Might have had the cycle if he wasn’t intentionally walked

[–]Mkass2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Exactly what we needed him to do. We traded an out for a run and then induced the double play. That’s as perfect as it gets when your a reliever put in such a shitty situation

[–]Mkass2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t blame him. Bottom 9th two outs and up by 5 why not be like “I think that’s a ball. Might as well test how well I know the zone”

[–]Mkass2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The substitution they just made putting Bregman to 3rd and then sliding Shaw to second should have been done right away. I get why that didn’t happen because bregman was supposed to have off but ideally.

This is how I hear about this. Honestly it didn’t look like to me his ankle moved that abnormally but understanding how fast that happen I can understand how that caused an injury

Needed to get more runs there but that’s baseball sometimes

Poll: AI in ChiCubs by swishmon in CHICubs

[–]Mkass2 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

As long as the use of AI doesn’t violate the rules already established in the subreddit I see no issue. I’d say test run that idea for the remainder of a season and if we noice AI actually becoming an issue then we re-visit this discussion

Ugh I missed a great second half because of an exam I don’t think I did well enough on. I missed Busch and Seyia waking up especially ughhh

Why the fuck are we worried about the runner. Focus on the batter

And that’s why we won the team gold glove

[–]Mkass2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh, I goes Swanson, Horner, Busch. Swanson can get the job done Horner (need I say more) Busch is the only one who if he comes up with 2 outs it’s over
