Sounds like good days to start Kopech with the 7 inning games.

Yeah this kind of worked out in our favor. I'm ok with it.

I did see that too. I coulda sworn it said they option Burdi for him. Edit: actually, I saw it on MLBTR: https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2021/04/minor-mlb-transactions-42021.html

They already made a move for a starter I thought.

Why wouldn't he leave him in after a 6 pitch inning?

6 pitches why not?

Put him 3rd right now...and imagine if this is the start of Abreu's hot streak.

"Play" is a pretty loose term.

Love it

Lucky. It fuckin snowed in the Chicagoland area (pretty steady in the south suburbs).

What in the fuck

He should try that Urlacher product.

I would have let Yermin get one more ab. Leury now the 5 hitter.

Yeah give up every day at bats in AAA. Let him play LF there.

Rodon picks up mit: "I'll do it myself"

He's been pretty meh since signing here. And to think he's gotten the highest contract in franchise history.

Flip Moncada and Robert, then flip Moncada and Grandal: Anderson Eaton Robert Abreu Mercedes Moncada Grandal Vaughn Madrigal I would even say switch Abreu and Mercedes if I thought it had any chance of happening, but maybe even get Abreu a day off or two soon.

Possible downside to having a bunch of Cuban/Dominican players?

Where would you play Yermin if Vaughn was at first and Abreu DH?

I mean, I wouldn't mind Abreu getting back to back days off soon.

Keep it up, Nicky 2-strikes!

Give him a couple days off. Hey Yermin, you got a 1B mit? Edit: or 3 catcher lineup C Collins, 1B Grandal, DH Yermin

I too thought it was odd they didn't at least give until after top of the 8th.

Has Vaughn played 3 games in a row yet?
