maxjusttyped Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 It's wild how effective throwing a fastball directly down the middle is for Lance vs pretty much any other pitcher in baseball 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are paid to pitch and should have to go through a lineup of 9 supposedly major league hitters. I hate NL baseball almost as much as Manfred extra inning ball. Why have any batter hit when there is a better one on the bench? Field your best defensive team and bat your best nine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You better make sure Jerry Reinsdorf doesn't know where you live if you're going to propose such a massive increase in roster size and salaries. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leave the roster size, you'll have a few guys go both ways. Two way players may earn a bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timmy U Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 How the hell can anyone get a hit with this zone? He's giving a good 3 inches on the inside and like 5 on the outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm shocked when pitchers throw him anything that isn't a fastball in off the plate right now. This has got to be the first time since he broke out where he's had 1 issue pitchers can attack like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quin Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 16 minutes ago, maxjusttyped said: Given the construction of this roster, I'd much rather see Vaughn in the OF. He's a significantly more valuable player if he can handle LF/RF at passable effectiveness like we've seen so far. For what it's worth, I'm talking purely in a vacuum. Going forward I'm with you.

wegner Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I think it is time to pinch hit for Hendricks....let's get a look at the new Cubbie bullpen. If they are short handed, maybe we could let them have Tepera back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pitch is four inches outside but he has to try to get a bat on it or it will get called a strike. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
