whitesoxfan99 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 13, 2015 -> 05:46 PM) Terrible pitching ever since Lackey miracle in game 1 The Cubs lineup is obviously solid but it has really been incredible how bad the Cardinals pitchers have looked. They are consistently missing their spots by a lot. Now to be fair, a team like the Sox might not take advantage of it because they aren't patient but there have just been an incredible amount of breaking balls and fastballs left in places that are easy for a hitter to hit hard.

whitesoxfan99 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 QUOTE (daa84 @ Oct 13, 2015 -> 05:47 PM) not sure I understand the approach the cards have taken to a lot of Cubs hitters. First pitch fastball away to Baez is about the only thing I don't throw him. 4 straight breaking balls to a lefty who dives out over the plate? Gotta bust rizzo in at least once per AB Agreed but that was just an awful pitch. Cruz wanted that pitch way off the plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good assessment. The Cubs offense is good enough where you have to be reasonably good on the mound, and they devour mistakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
