Due sing gets dfa’d

Tim Collins signed but goes to Iowa roster 

cubs embarrasing SD...2 outs in the 1st...6 runs in.

cubs fielding a very minor league heavy lineup today and they've chased l.allen after 0.2ip

"don't worry, we got this" - every cubs player with a bat

18 runs through 4.2 for CHC and SD is bringing in their 7th pitcher of the game.

...21 runs through 6ip...24-6 final, cubs with 27h and 8bb

btw, chatwood threw a nearly flawless 1ip 0h 0bb 2k performance with command/control over 3 pitches.  it was nothing short of spectacular, especially his curve.  maples went 1ip 0h 0bb 3k with his filthy slider on point.

for the 2nd game in a row a cubs runner is tagged out after the 1st baseman drops the ball and the runner turns toward 2nd while going back to 1st (not realizing the 1st baseman dropped the ball and was safe)...that's not a good look in back to back games....

c.singleton has announced he's retiring, btw.

he's going to focus on outreach, speaking engagements, and writing (his mother was killed in the SC AME church shooting).

    ...and a madrigal "non-error" leads to a sac fly for a tie game.  nice.

    having a ball clank off your glove, but still getting it count as a hit because it was hit hard is a nice stats gift.

    For sure. This lineup isn’t exactly stacked as is, and subbing out a Cooper or even a Tauchman for Madrigal won’t do it any favors.

    the ESPN bottom graphic taking up 1/8th of the screen sucks.

    i only use ESPN during baseball season and i'm forced to watch a baseball broadcast designed to be broadcast in sports bars and betting parlors where the news/scores of other games is as important as what you're actually tuned in to watch.

    morel triple to start the season....yeaaaaaaaaaaaaah

  • Arizona Phil (view)

    LHP Blake Weiman appears to have been the last cut from the AAA Iowa roster. He is with the Tennessee group at Minor League Camp.

    bruce bochy is hobbling rather badly for a guy who's had 2 hip replacements.  his gait is extremely wonky taking the lineup card to the ump.

  • crunch (view)

    yeah, for me this isn't about who's better at 3rd.  it's madrigal, period.  for me it's about who's not hitting in the lineup because madrigal is in the lineup.

    occasional play at 3rd for madrigal, okay.  going with the steele/ground-ball matchup...meh, but okay, whatever.

    seeing madrigal get significant starting time...no thanks.

  • Dolorous Jon Lester (view)

    Yeah I am very disappointed Madrigal is starting. He has no business as a starter. He is AAA insurance, a back up at best. Sure his defense looks fine because he plays far enough in that his noodle arm isn’t totally exposed. It comes at the cost of 3B range.

    He’s garbage, and a team serious about winning would NOT have him starting opening day.

    in other news, it took 3 PA before a.rizzo got his 1st HBP of the season.

    With two home runs (so far) and 5 rbi today … clearly Nick Martini is the straw that stirs the Reds drink 😳
