This is getting ridiculous.

$13 million ($9 for Alonso and $4 for Jay).

Thanks, I almost forgot. Who was that shortstop again they traded to San Diego? 

Bryant is very happy Giolito is out the game. 

about a 40% chance Rizzo gets HBP here

This gamethread has become insufferable. Not you, the other guy.

Rhymes with Bernando Fatis

I don’t recall but I think we got a stud veteran pitcher in return.

This game is soooooo slow

He shows up big time in big games

The hottest of takes. ?  ? 

Real only comes in to post truth bombs.  Ignore the fact Lucas never struck out nine batters in a single game in 2018 (or came close to 18+ K/9) , this was vintage bad Giolito.

Him getting hit in the hand on a pitch right down the middle of the plate was pretty hilarious.

surprised Blaser didn't rule that a foul ball

This. He's going to be fine. 

Alright top of the order, let's make some noise

Sorry, I can’t predict the future.  But I can damn sure look up some stats in about 10 seconds to prove your sorry ass wrong.

Don't say dumb shit then because you sure as shit tried to predict the future.

And why? Because a 35 year old is somehow good again in a small sample size, Lester sucks currently and Hendricks has a shoulder issue? Now that took 10 seconds

This might be the worst umping game I've seen in quite sometime. Not even Angel Hernandez has been THIS bad (although he is terrible).

Still winnable. The Cubs bullpen blows chunks. Let's remind those asshats on the North side about it.

Seriously. "Last season" Giolito would've had 7 BBs and like 2 K's in bad outings like that.

He is clearly limping

yeah garcia is hurt, theres no way he doesnt beat that out when hes 100%

Leury is nowhere near 100%

Can’t convince me Leury is healthy after watching him run there.

healthy Garcia beats that

@Chicago White Sox @SoxAce, if Giolito pitched well tonight and got lit vs the Sawx instead, I think the fanbase would be more forgiving. It is magnified because it is the Cubs

Btw. Is Ben Zobrist really retiring because his wife dumped him? That is just hilarious, what a mark.
