October 26, 20169 yr QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 25, 2016 -> 08:33 PM) That's the meatiest pitch I've seen in a while. Since the first one he hit tonight.
October 26, 20169 yr QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 25, 2016 -> 08:34 PM) Save Cody Allen. Use Shaw instead. Or Otero.
October 26, 20169 yr Cubs bullpen pretty average outside of Chapman. I can see why Theo gave up a boatload of prospects to get Chapman.
October 26, 20169 yr So can anyone tell me why Maddon got so cute with his lineup? Did he really start a guy who hasn't seen live pitching in month higher in the order than Baez? So overrated. Here's hoping this trend continues.

October 26, 20169 yr The Cubs are feeling what the Giants felt when they gave up 2 homers to pitchers. Roberto Perez is a pretty bad hitter.
October 26, 20169 yr Author Why did Maddon let Ross face Miller with the bases loaded instead of pinch hitting Soler? Ross was replaced defensively anyway so what was the difference? Seemed like a waste of their best opportunity, get a power bat in there.

Ross is at least patient enough to not swing at crap.

October 26, 20169 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 25, 2016 -> 10:45 PM) No clue why Maddon doesn't play Contreras every game Yup. He's easily their 4th best hitter after Bryant, Rizzo, and Zobrist.
October 26, 20169 yr If the Indians even had one of Salazar or Carrasco, they'd be the easy favorites in this series.
