2021-08-10, Game 2: Brewers (Ashby) at Cubs (Mills) [Brewers win, 6-3 in 7 innings]

[Simba2020]

I see absolutely nothing to like in Curtiss. He will be non-tendered in my mind certainly before his second year. If even that. He's just a guy.

[PeaveyFury]

He will be non-tendered in my mind certainly before his second year.

 

Yeah, I'd take that bet...

[trwi7]

Holy movement on Stricklands breaking ball tonight

Humidity is very high, thicker air, more friction against the seams.

 

[brewcrewdue80]

Just a reminder the Cubs have nobody in their bullpen worth anything. We should be able to score some runs here late.

[SomewhereInTime]

I think he can be optioned. They should probably do that.

[Simba2020]

He will be non-tendered in my mind certainly before his second year.

 

Yeah, I'd take that bet...

So I assume that means you are disagreeing with me. If so, you really think he's going to be on our roster for 3 years after this?

[wibadgers23]

You get what you pay for. Was hoping Stearns would go after a high end bullpen guy but went this route instead and so far hasn’t worked out.

[LouisEly]

How in the heck do you pronounce this guy's first name?

[PeaveyFury]

He will be non-tendered in my mind certainly before his second year.

 

Yeah, I'd take that bet...

So I assume that means you are disagreeing with me. If so, you really think he's going to be on our roster for 3 years after this?

 

I think that saying ANYTHING 2.5 years out and claiming it to be a certainty is a poor idea.

[Underachiever]

Well, you know the old saying: You can’t let Joneshwy Fargas beat you.

[NYChez]

July 25 was the last time the Brewers lost when Curtiss didn’t pitch.

[PeaveyFury]

Well, you know the old saying: You can’t let Joneshwy Fargas beat you.

 

I say that to myself every morning.

[Bulldogboy]

I guess pitching a guy every single day isn't good idea??

[jonescm128]

Geez…

[Underachiever]

This game is not going according to plan.

[LouisEly]

Injury delay?

[PeaveyFury]

I guess pitching a guy every single day isn't good idea??

 

We know why it kind of had to be last week, but I agree that he shouldn't have been used today unless they had to. Dude has to be gassed.

[Fear The Chorizo]

Curtiss just has terrible command...

 

Pretty sure the trainer just had enough of watching him that inning

[jonescm128]

Geez…

[phnxcrew]

Well, you know the old saying: You can’t let Joneshwy Fargas beat you.

 

Yeah, joneshwy is a traditional

Family name for me so I find this offensive. Mods?

[NYChez]

The Marlins knew something about Curtiss to deal him for a mid-level prospect.

Damaged goods.

[willie key]

This is getting tiring with these new relievers

[Simba2020]

He will be non-tendered in my mind certainly before his second year.

 

Yeah, I'd take that bet...

 

 

I think that saying ANYTHING 2.5 years out and claiming it to be a certainty is a poor idea.

Ok, 99.9%. Better?

[adambr2]

I think Ashby is going to be a bigger bullpen add for the playoffs than anyone we added at the trade deadline.

Waiting for Lindblom now… call up tomorrow?
