Yep, extend one of Vargas or Mune, and then move Colson to 3rd

You can extend both and still do that. Vargas and Mune platoon between 1st and DH.

RF at MLB level is a mindfield given the park differences.

But backing up throws and getting behind the ball are things you learn in middle school

Fucking disaster but plenty of ball left. Got to have a short memory and put a crooked number on the board.

Also, anybody know if Mune was a good 3rd baseman in Japan?

Clearly that is the ideal solution

You have Colson with Roch coming

4 runs does not win this game

How about another one of those three run homers?

Don’t think so

This is Shota's last inning. Cubs bullpen is not great and was abused in the last series.

Leadoff walk!!

I dont think 4 will win this game. Lets go boys!

Is it just me, or did Vargas have a shot at getting him at home?

Two great pitches to hit, damn

Sure as s%*# had no play at first

Closer has been great. Rest are very hit or miss.

Another walk would be swell

Get this dude out of the game. He’s making our hitters look like s%*#

Left-handed bats on the bench better be ready.

Braden just could not see that splitter at all

JFC Braden

Just an awful at bat by him

Come on Doyle

Now would be a good time for Doyle to look like a big leaguer for the first time today

They aren’t picking up that splitter. Should’ve hit that pitch simulator thing at the rate this afternoon
