TheTruth05 Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Hopefully they sneak this one in, it'd be nice to build off yesterday's winner and get to .500. Also yesterday Sox fans we're very noticeable in the stands, gotta love Sox fans taking over wrigley! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not see it but my wife said the Sox fan who got the Eloy homer stood on his chair, held up the ball and kissed it as the Cubbie fans desperately pleaded to "throw it back" 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisox378 Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 This is going to be a dog fight. Cubs will come out swinging, we have to weather the storm, and have the fortitude to take this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richie Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 I really hope this isn't the day that Giolito has that poor outing that he's likely due for. I really want this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No they will just sit him today and assume the 2 days off will be good enough for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BackDoorBreach Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 (edited) Gio making the case for ASG starter after Verlander got shelled last night. Lets go. Edited June 19, 2019 by BackDoorBreach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chitownsportsfan Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Cubs fans bending over backwards to defend that trade is hilarious. They got absolutely fleeced. Hahn traded Quintana when you could still squint and see a good #2. But that's not the pitcher he's been in Wrigley. He's been more like a innings eater than a TOR starter. The last time his K rate was so low he was walking an entire batter less per game. His stuff just isn't what it was on the South Side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will have done the medical exam and made their best educated guess. The critical thinking is why they call it the practice of medicine not the science of medicine.

The starter is usually determined by when their spot in the rotation comes up. Last year the astros had Verlander pitch just prior to the game so he didn't pitch in the game. He got his rest for the 2nd half of the season. It wouldn't surprise me if they did that again and Verlander isn't even a consideration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard about Eloy’s WAR over the last 24 hours as justification for trading him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cease will have his say as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
