This seems like the one game you can argue Romo should start. So of course hes out

Yep, caught Castillo’s last game

Max says catchers can't start 2 games in a row.

I would love to see a replay tonight of Pete Crow losing sight of a fly ball in the lights.

.Repeat of their June 4 game.

I was gonna say I hope our blonde heckler will be in the outfield tonight but then I quickly remembered it's wrigley and I wouldn't wish sitting in that outfield on my worst enemy haha. Let's beat their ass until they bleed blue or whatever

Really want to see Castillo shove again and Doyle take one yard. Rogers providing a boost would be gravy.

We all know what we have with our general roster — The more we get from our acquisitions, the better we can feel in the immediate and looking down the line.

LETS GO SOX! f*** THESE FUCKING CUBBIE BITCHES UP!!!!

The Curse of the Sox Bride needs to be renewed to cool PCA off for a bit, she can take one for the team!

I fucking hate the Cubs. I really hope Meidroth sets this game off right with a leadoff bomb and we never look back.

Minimal ~4mph to left. But still should be bombs away

Edit: Correction - starts in and switches out as game goes on

Kind of shocked the Cubs are doing so well while allowing 30 more HRs than they hit

Hey! Don't criticize Venable or a certain subset of posters are going to get on your ass for being negative!

Thats because they are top 5 in walks allowed. They give up bombs but not walks in front of bombs

My favorite part about these series is that regardless of the outcome, a Chicago team is winning

6 game losing streak at wrigley ends TONIGHT

Chase at leadoff over Sam is something. Chase strikes out too much to lead off imo

Chase and Sam have been see sawing for weeks now and it’s fine. He’s also red hot.

Not sure any player deserves the most ABs over him

I'm not in favor of sitting our All Star CF for....Doyle. WTF? And I also don't agree with sitting Antonacci, the spark plug of this team. I don't give a sh1t about the splits. I prefer putting the best players on the field and if needed, pinch hitting if a L/R advantage presents in late innings. I know that is a minority opinion and 180 degrees from what Venable does. The younger players eventually need to learn how to hit opposite hand pitchers.

I'm fine with it tonight as the cubs have some good right handers in the bullpen. We can do some things late with PH.
