Walker 1-1, 2B, 2 BBs. 6 game hitting streak. Has hit safely in 9 of his last 10 games.

Completely agree.

TIMMY!!!

He seemingly does that in almost every post he makes now.

I think it was 94. I have to go look back in the GT when I saw the game and posted that. EDIT: yep it was 94.

FYI Pilkington a couple of starts ago did hit 94 in the 6th inning.

And now in Dayton Ohio. 9 dead, 16 injured so far being reported.

Jose Rodriguez BOMB #7.

Even with Robert, Madrigal coming up and they can sign Cole, J.D. Martinez, Grandal and even another arm in the off season and I still wouldn't take this team seriously with him at the helm.

Somebody needs to photoshop Covey's head on top of a tank. Dude is the perfect tank commander.

He's a weird case. His bat has fallen off a cliff but his defensive metrics have been very good. He came in with the bat first rep in the Cubs org but it's his defense that has improved in the big leagues He was a 2.5 WAR player last season and he's still only 25. He just needs to be at least average with the bat to be a decent player for them.

He calls for it so much it's literally in the scouting report. Just no creativity or imagination. Even a shit manager like Kapler can figure that out.

Quite a few opposing announcers have questioned Ricky it seems. Stone took a bit of a shot at him too for that. Bunts with a slow ass runner at 3B (and he puts the steal on with slow ass runners instead of his fast guys not named Tim Anderson or he'll put hit and runs on and the hitters fail to execute). Just a joke of a manager.

Great call.

Fuck off Ricky. Love Stone taking a shot at him for bunting.

Moncada's issue is much moreso with his throws. Can't count the number or errors he's either made a bad throw or Abreu couldn't scoop up the ball an average defensive 1B would make. He gets a bit of a pass since he's at a position he hasn't played in years too. I can look and personally see a potentially good to great defensive 3B there. Timmy... eh... we'll see.

He's made boneheaded errors when a couple of our pitchers had no hitters going (I believe Miguel Gonzalez in fact had a perfect game at the time). Eh.. maybe maturity will help him down the line without trying to show off/play with flair in that instance.

Cordero gonna be the new Bummer. Seems like he's out there every game now.

Pitched his ass off. Ricky played with fire a bit that inning but got away with it. Great outing by him.

Ricky maybe letting the 15 inning game yesterday cloud his thinking. Getting dangerous asking Detwiler to give you another limited damaged inning.

Good version of Davis Martin pitched tonight.

Well... he nearly tossed 4 flawless innings. But the 4th did him in.

Just poor fundamentals. Love the bat but his defense is just not very good.

Was hit very hard too.
