Out of all these hyped guys who failed, he is quietly becoming a solid starter.

It will be sad to see JBJ go. He is a likable player. He just didn't have the consistent bat we hoped for, It's always sad to watch players leave. But we been fine without Pedro, Papi, Papelbon, Lester. that is interesting list. Of course, no mention of Boggs and Clemens, thankfully. When you wear the pinstrips, your dead to me.

I think they should swing the bat, maybe.

Our 2-3-4 are all slumping out the gate. They don't even have good at bats.
The untimely doubleplays and squanders are their pitfalls. I'm already tired of this young season.

When you wear the pinstrips, your dead to me. I mean... fine. But losing Papi meant spending big on JDM. Losing Papelbon meant trading for Kimbrel, and losing Lester meant signing Price. They have been fine, but it has not been cheap.

I will never understand Morepand on the bench tonight..... Something to do with his ankle. But Benni becoming a platoon player? Someone explain that.

The walks for the pitchers are like the bad baserunning for the hitters... just cannot afford it.

Brasier could have done that. They need to know if he can somehow pitch or not.

Ugh. Honestly, not to sound like a little league coach, but I can take losing, I can take not being especially talented, but walks, bad baserunning, passed balls, etc.... painful.

Brewer would be a great dart player. Just aim middle like the strikezone.

I would too, but he still says the Cubs would've won the WS without Chapman. Did't Chappy blow a lead in game 6 or something? I think it was Game 7.

I’m gunna credit Verdugo with a line drive there. Maybe as hard as he can hit it.

Roenicke is not a good manager with our roster..... I am not really criticizing him..... he might be fine elsewhere as a manager or as our bench guy..... but he is not doing a great job with this team at all..... players arent playing well and making huge running mistakes but he isnt helping at all with his awful lineups and lethargic approach. Team had no life
