Stupid non-DH league

It's awful. And a team like the Cubs has to want the DH in the NL.

Why do we have the pitchers batting? We need to demandvtge DH be allowed

Moncada's nerves showing a bit. At least he is recovering nicely.

He's so much like Cano it's uncanny. Not many 2B are going to have the confidence to try and turn the double play that way.

That's the kind of play I don't mind/expect to see a rookie make a mistake or two on.

True. As long as it doesn't persist, I'm cool with it.

Why is Moncada trying to bunt please stop

Now with leadoff guy on first, let's get him in. Time for some of these hard hit balls to start finding some holes.

Wtf, make it stop

I'm blaming that strikeout on the bunt attempt on that ball Hendricks left up.

Ugh, I hate having Moncada try to square like that.

 

It's so different having a guy sacrifice from having a guy bunt for a hit. If Moncada ever has to actually know how to sacrifice under game conditions then that means to me he's a serious disappointment with the bat.

 

If you want him to bunt, he should be under orders to try to bunt for a hit. I can deal with that.

I hate his in game tactics but man I love Ricky as a leader.

What a waste

listening to the cubs broadcast they think Moncada is putting that bunt down on his own, I don't buy that for a second.

I wonder if he knows Moncada has never bunted in his life.

Renteria needs to go to Bunters Anonymous or something, this is ridiculous.

Again why are you playing for one run with the worst bullpen imaginable? As balta perfectly said, if Yoan is bunting in the future, then he was a bust

He's too busy doing cooking demonstrations

Absolutely terrible pitch by Hendricks. Maddon should've just INT walked him.

Because they would be in disbelief a major league manager would have him bunt.

Hawk and Stoney saying that Renteria is trying to get the players in the mindset to learn and lay down good hunts when the team is good. Ok then Rick

Nice Abreu, if only Yoan got the bunt down, the situation would be the same

That still doesn't make much sense because you should almost never be bunting anyway, it's not a particularly useful skill.

makes no f***ing sense. Living in the liveliest of live ball eras; here is a bight f***ing idea lets do everything that is the converse of that...
