Per his owner

Yolmer has been flashing the leather tonight.

Mendick for Sanchez & just play Tilson over Cordell please

I would really like to see Mendick over Rondon. Both he and Collins seemingly take some walks. Would be a breath of fresh air in this lineup.

Nice play by Yolmer.

That was scary. Anything hit hard at Eloy has me holding my breath.

If Sanchez could hit a lick, he'd be a serviceable bench piece for a good team.  

Problem is, we know he can't hit for shit.  Just like Adam Engel.  

 

 

Heyward with 10 HR? Didn't he start off really hot then go back to being a trashcan?

Nova’s pitches are getting meatier.

Nova isn’t missing any barrels tonight

Please don't insult Yolmer like that.  There are few if any big leaguers that have hit as poorly as Engel and were given that many PA.  Compared to Engel, Yolmer is Mike Trout.

His height helped him out on that one.

At least we are finally taking advantage of that outside corner

PSA: Danny Mendick is hitting .333/.447/.410 so far in June.

He started out hot but this is still the best season he has had as a Cub.  .765 OPS.

Cordell and Rondon should be replaced by Jay and Mendick next week.

Man, Nova getting lucky on some of these meatballs.

Mendick is one thing but I honestly don’t see any reason to waste at bats on Jay.

I'd rather a shitty pitcher that throws strikes and hopes for the best then one like Manny that just walks the yard before he decides to throw some meatballs.

And then Jay will quietly go away in the winter for Robert ?

I agree. I almost wonder if the Sox agree. I mean, he couldn't have been truly THIS injured, could he?

Going to the fifth at 1-0.  Feels worse but this is still winnable.

The Sox should go after Hamels in the offseason. Would something like 2 years 38 million be enough to get him?
