f.reyes with his 2nd triple with the cubs.

time to bat him leadoff and have him steal some bases.  maybe have him patrol CF.

My daughter and her family live in view of Miller(!!) Park, and I have enjoyed many tailgates at (my opinion) the most drunken ballpark I've been at. (Mixed feelings there).  Still, I want Milwaukee to win the division and get eliminated in the playoffs. 

not really feeling girardi in the booth so far.  pre/post-game show or something, maybe, sure...but booth...meh.

it's not terrible, but it's a bit dry for a color guy.  he's like a half-asleep ron coomer.

it is crazy how many younger people got into baseball during the pandemic.

i am seeing a whole lot of late teens and 20-somethings at games all over the country.  there's a whole lot at today's game in all parts of the park.

baseball cementing new fans from casual to dedicated.  nice.

ow...wisdom jams his fingers into the ground and sandpapers them across the dirt on a slide home.  he's hurt...hopefully nothing broken.

fun game.  cubs tie in the bottom 9th, 10th, and 11th.

contreras wins it with a walk-off single in the 11th.

only his 2nd career walk-off hit.

this was an extremely fun game.  5th win in a row.

Rob Zastryzny called up by Mets, once upon a time he was a Cub. Gotta love all the y'all and z's.

wisdom out for a while, getting xrays on left hand (fingers)

also, k.thompson to the 15d IL (lower back tightness).  a.espinoza up.

it's starting to look highly likely that only 1 cubs starter has a shot at 150ip this year (j.steele).

can't blame SP injuries for the 2022 cubs woes, but it didn't help.

steele has 41.2ip more innings to reach 150ip and 8-9 more starts to do it.  that's not a sure thing.

pujols pinch hit single today.  absolutely on fire since the all-star break.

22 for 49 with an ob% just under .500...7 homers, 3 doubles.

8 homers away from 700 career.

    straily's a bit rusty...

    Open 40 man spot might see the return of CJ. He’s been okay in Iowa. Teheran has been rocked in his starts this year. SSS of course.

    Wouldn’t be shocked seeing another 40 man spot open with Brewer losing his spot.

    Word is that Counsell thought Mervis and Wisdom got too much work in yesterday so it will be Wesneski.

    no days off til may 9th.  moves may happen if the pen gets too worked tomorrow.

  • Cubster (view)

    On top of all that…Wicks scratched for Sunday due to “forearm soreness.” Bullpen day again starting with Mervis or Wisdom (or Wesn).

  • crunch (view)

    "Morel told reporters after the game that he felt alright, just a little banged up — specifically noting his right hip and both elbows. He did say that he was optimistic about his ability to play on Sunday, though manager Craig Counsell may have other plans."

    rsox putting pablo reyes up to pitch...an infielder...cranking 70+mph stuff.

    ...and of course he gets out of it with no runs scored...that kind of day for the cubs.

  • crunch (view)

    ...and wisdom replaces mervis on the mound to try to get the last out.

    busch is at 3rd, but i wouldn't read too much into that.

    wisdom's thrown a couple in the 80s (one of them 88mph), but both missed the strike zone badly.

    matt mervis is no david ross on the mound.

    cubs run differential getting destroyed.

  • crunch (view)

    matt mervis pitching...wisdom replaces morel at 3rd.

    he's featuring some high-50s thunder on the fastball.

    through 15 pitches, he's straight up throwing BP...all mid-high 50s lobs.  no way he's going to jose canseco himself out of a job.

    on pitch 21 he railed a 75mph fastball missing high on a 0-1 count.  ha.
